Echoflex Installation Guide
Wireless Switches
Prepare for Installation
To ensure optimal function, consider the installation environment and the
following guidelines:
•
For indoor use only. Operating temperature -25°C to 65°C
(-13°F to 149°F), 5%–92% relative humidity (non-condensing).
•
High-density construction materials and large metal appliances or
fixtures in the space may disrupt wireless transmissions.
•
Install the switch within range of linked receivers or controllers,
24 m (80 ft). Consider adding a repeater to extend reception range.
•
Avoid mounting transmitters and receivers on the same wall.
Installation
Use hand tools when installing. Over-torquing with a power tool can
damage the switch.
Models that are surface-mounted can be installed on any clean surface
using double-sided tape or Velcro
®
. Mounting holes are also provided for
more secure mounting, if required.
Note:
To adapt the mounting method, order certified barrier
plates, which are sold separately (part numbers: 8188K1001 for
single-gang and 8188K1002 for dual-gang). Multi-gang surface
mounting plates are also sold separately.
Orient the ON side of the switch paddle at the top. The decorator style
switches have an UP arrow and an “I” indicating ON and an “O”
indicating OFF. The handheld switches have a recessed area that indicates
the ON side of the paddle.
