Step 4: Install Light Bulbs on Network
The light bulbs in your lighting kit already come pre-connected to the Gateway; however, you must still install
the light bulbs so that the Gateway can find them on the network.
Note: If you are installing a new light bulb that did not come with your kit (for example, if you reset network light
bulbs from a remote control kit), then you must manually connect the light wirelessly to your Gateway. In this
case, you should be ready to access your Gateway during the steps below as you will have to press its sync
button to engage the network connection.
Before installing the light bulbs, determine the appropriate locations in your home for installing them. The
Introduction chapter provides information on planning your lighting network. When you are ready to install the
light bulbs, perform the following steps:
1. Turn power
OFF
to the light fixtures where you will be installing the network light bulbs.
2. Remove any existing standard light bulbs from the light fixtures.
3. Install each network light bulb into the light fixtures as you would any standard light bulb.
4. Turn power on to the light fixtures.
5. If you are installing only light bulbs that came with your kit, you can skip this step. However, if you
are also installing light bulbs that did not come with your kit (for example, if you reset network light
bulbs from a remote control kit), then you must connect them to your Gateway:
a. When you turn power on, the light bulbs will brighten and dim while attempting to connect
wirelessly to your Gateway.
b. Press the sync button on the Gateway once to enable the connection.
The activity indicator begins to display a clockwise rotating pattern.
c. When the light bulbs are connected to your Gateway, they turn on to full brightness. Press
the sync button on the Gateway again to stop the network search process (otherwise the
Gateway will stop the search process automatically in two minutes after finding the most
recent light bulb).
6. If a light fixture has a dimmer control (not recommended), set the dimmer level to full brightness.
7. Leave the light fixture switches
ON
so that power is available to the light bulbs.
