Perform power learning

To enable use of the power-sensing features, configure your Wireless Outlet Switch to read the power state of the devices that you plug into it.

To perform power learning:

  1. Follow the steps in the previous section.
  1. Turn Off the device plugged into the Wireless Outlet Switch.
  1. Push and hold the button on the Top panel of the Wireless Outlet Switch until the two LEDs toggle orange On/Off, alternating back and forth.
  1. Select an outlet to configure (Outlet 1 or 2) by releasing the button when the LED that corresponds to that outlet number lights up. 

    2. Example: If a device is plugged into Outlet 1, release the button when LED 1 lights up. Upon doing so, the LED you chose flashes orange, indicating that the Wireless Outlet Switch is learning a steady state of the device (such as On or Off). When the LED turns solid orange, the Wireless Outlet Switch has learned the steady state, but has not yet determined whether the state is On or Off. 

  1. With the LED now solid orange, turn the device plugged into the Wireless Outlet Switch to an On state. The LED again flashes orange while the Wireless Outlet Switch is learning the On state of the device. When learning completes, the LED glows solid orange again to indicate the Wireless Outlet Switch has learned the steady state.
  1. With the LED now solid orange again, turn the device Off. The LED flashes orange to indicate the Wireless Outlet Switch is waiting for a steady state. When the device reaches a steady state, the LED glows red to indicate the Wireless Outlet Switch has learned the Off state.
  1. With the LED now solid red, turn the device On again. The LED flashes orange to indicate it is waiting for a steady state. When the device reaches a steady state, the LED glows green to indicate the Wireless Outlet Switch has learned the On state.
  1. With the LED now solid green, press the button on the Wireless Outlet Switch one time to save and exit the Power Learning mode. 

    2. IMPORTANT TIP: You can use a quick button press during any step of this process prior to the LEDs turning solid red or green to exit the Learning mode without saving. 

  1. Repeat the steps to configure the other outlet (Outlet 1or 2) as needed for any additional plugged-in device. 

    2. Note: To unlearn a device, press the button nine times, but use with care; this will reset both outlets.
