Troubleshooting

Issue

Solution

No white (neutral) wire

Ask an electrician if a neutral wire can be installed, 
otherwise the device cannot be used in that location.

No ground wire

It is not recommended to operate any electrical device 
without proper grounding, however a ground wire is not 
necessary for operation.

WiFi Connection LED 
does not flash after 
installation or light does 
not work

Ensure there is power getting to the device.  Double 
check that the correct breaker is turned on and that the 
wiring was connected correctly.

WiFi Connection LED 
continues to flash after 
configuration

Reconnect to the device access point (Step 9), repeat 
steps 10 through 16 and ensure the WiFi connection 
(SSId) and password are correct.  Note that if the Device 
Name has been configured, the name of the WiFi 
connection will change to device_name.

Lights flicker or do not 
dim properly

See the configuration table in Step 7.  If you cannot 
resolve the issue, try a different model or brand of light or 
bulb.  Not all lights function properly with dimmers, 
regardless of whether they claim to be dimmable.

Device is connected to 
WiFi, but 
http://device_name.local 
URL is not accessible

Check that multicast, mDNS or similar options are 
enabled on your network.  Not all routers and/or access 
points support LAN name resolution.  Look in the DHCP 
table on your router to identify the IP address assigned to 
your device and connect to it at http://ip_address (e.g. 
http://192.168.1.123) if name resolution fails.

Dimmer physical switch
is not responding

Push the reset button, wait for the device to restart
if this doesn’t solve the issue, cycle the breaker once to 
reboot the device.

Lost web admin 
password

Perform a factory reset: first, turn the breaker off for 30 
seconds, then turn on and off in ~5 second intervals for 6 
cycles, leaving the breaker on for the 7th cycle.  Repeat 
steps 9 - 16.

Lost Network Name, or 
to erase configuration 
and start over

Perform a factory reset as detailed above.
