Select a terminal to follow its wiring.

Every job, terminal by terminal

  1. Wire a second switch

    Power on L and N, the switch on SW1

    Mains comes in on L and N to power the i4. The switch takes active on one side and lands on SW1 on the other, so the i4 sees each flip. Nothing is switched through the i4: it sends the light its command over Wi-Fi.
