After installation, the Light Switch will immediately allow the lamp to
function. To control the switch wirelessly, it will need to be added to the
free@home network. Detailed information about setup is available in the
technical reference manual and the online help for the System Access
Point at www.abb.com/freeathome.
1. To complete setup, you will need the ABB-free@home System
Access Point (SysAP) and a computer (tablet, laptop, or desktop
computer).
2. Walls, ceilings, and electrical equipment can affect wireless
communication, especially steel reinforcements or other large metal
objects. Electrical devices that send high-frequency signals (such as
computers, wireless routers, audio systems, and video systems)
should be at least 3-feet from this device.
3. When first powered, the device is in discovery mode for 30 minutes.
This time period allows the SysAP to see and connect to the device.
During this time, the user can login to the SysAP and add the device
to the free@home network.
4. After 30 minutes, the device will automatically exit discovery mode. To
re-enter discovery mode, the user must turn the power OFF and back
ON again. This will place the device in discovery mode for another 30
minutes.
5. Once a device has been added to a network, it will no longer enter
discovery mode at power-up. To add the device to a new network, the
user must first force the device to forget its existing network by
resetting it back to factory settings.

Electrical Code (NEC
) allows a control to be installed as a replacement
ONLY IF 1) a non-metal, non-burning faceplate is attached with non-
metal screws, OR 2) the circuit is protected by a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI). Be sure to cap or remove the green wire before
screwing the control into the wall box.
