Start-up

5.1

Simple operating functions on the device

• Insert the wireless switch actuator into a socket.
The device is immediately ready for operation and can be taught-in to a
HomeMatic CCU (or to other HomeMatic devices).
Via the channel button (A), connected loads can be controlled (switch
on and off) with a short button press.
Before being able to use and configure your device in the HomeMatic
system, the switch actuator has to be taught-in first (see sec. „5.2 Tea-
ching-in" on page 8).

Teaching-in directly in to HomeMatic devices

If you want to teach-in the switch actuator to one or more HomeMatic
devices, the teach-in mode of both devices has to be activated first. To
do this, proceed as follows:
During teach-in, please make sure you maintain a distance of at
least 50 cm between the devices.
Activate the teach-in mode of your switch actuator.
• Therefore, press and hold the channel button (A) for at least 4 sec-
onds. The device LED (B) will flash slowly to indicate that teach-in
mode is active. The teach-in time is 20 seconds.
• Now put the device you wish to teach-in to the switch actuator
(e.g. HomeMatic remote control, see the following fig.) into teach-
in mode. Remove the battery compartment cover and press the
teach-in button briefly using a pointed object.
