Mounting instructions
Each installation must consist of one connected controller.
Follow the steps below to mount the connected controller light:
• Ensure that the installation is disconnected from the mains.
1 Click the controller onto the DINrail, ideally at the bottom left in the Niko Home Control part of the electrical cabinet.
2 Mount the other modules onto the rail, from left to right. Do not place any dimming modules close next to, above or
below the controller. When there is no room left on the rail or the maximum number of 12 devices per rail has been
reached, you simply continue on the rail above. Each following rail must start at the left with a rail coupler or an extra
power supply if required (see
3 Connect the connected controller with the module, placed next to it by sliding the sliding contact of the controller to
the right until it clicks. This will ensure that the bus and the power supply voltage are connected.
4 Connect the network cable to the WAN gateway of the connected controller and connect it with the internet modem or
router of the resident. Use a shielded network cable, preferably a STP network cable, and keep it separate from 230 V
cables to avoid crosstalk. Run the network cable alongside the SELV cables, for instance. The resident must ensure
that the network is secure.
5 Connect the L phase wire and the N neutral wire to the L and N screw terminals respectively and switch on the mains
supply.
Remember to give the resident the information listed on the sticker or to place the sticker in a clearly visible
location on the connected controller light or inside the electrical cabinet. The sticker includes the MAC address
and serial number (SN) of the connected controller light. The resident needs this information to register the
installation via https://mynikohomecontrol.niko.eu.
Power supply dimensioning
Depending on the size and the structure of the installation, up to two extra power supplies are installed next to the built-in
power supply in the connected controller light. As a general rule to determine whether an extra power supply is necessary,
the following quick check can be used: the power supply built into the controller can handle up to 24 cabinet modules and
70 operating elements (of which 20 with indication LED). For larger installations, consult the point calculation, see

consumption is expressed in points. An extra power supply is necessary as of 800 points.
