Evolve Radio Frequency (RF) Controlled, 120 VAC,
Wall Mounted Switch, 3-Way, Release 3.1
LSM-20
LSM-20 WALL MOUNTED SWITCH
The LSM-20 Wall Mounted 3-Way Switch is a component of the Evolve lighting control system. Wire the Wall Mounted Switch in place of the
standard wall switch according to the diagram above and program from the Wireless Controller to operate loads. Inclusion of this Switch on the
IR-100 Wireless Controller menu allows remote ON/OFF control of lamps connected.
This Wall Mounted Switch is designed to work with other Evolve enabled devices. Evolve nodes of other types can be added to the system and
will also act as repeaters if they support this function of repeating the signal received to other modules in the system.
As part of a Evolve network, the LSM-20 will also act as a wireless repeater to insure that commands intended for another device in the network
are received. This is useful when the device would otherwise be out of the radio range of the wireless controller.
There are no field repairable assemblies on this unit.. If service is needed, the unit must be returned where purchased.
DANGER! SHOCK HAZARD. Read and understand these instructions before installing. This device is intended for installation in accor-
dance with the National Electric code and local regulations in the United States, or the Canadian Electrical Code and local regulations in Canada.
It is recommended that a qualified electrician perform this installation.
Make sure the load controlled by the switch does not exceed 2400 watts. For indoor use only. Retain instructions for future use.
INSTALLATION
Wire this Switch in place of a current wall switch according to the diagram above.
When used, AS101’s are required to be wired to the same line (or neutral) which is also wired to the master unit as well as the load
being controlled, and not wired to any other neutral. If multiple neutrals are tied together in one box, separate the neutrals to preserve the integrity
of the LSM-20 circuit. Caution! Do not wire unit “live” (with power on the circuit) and do not allow the yellow wire to contact line voltage,
neutral or ground or you will damage the device. Refer to your Controller operating instructions to add this module under the command of the
Wireless Controller.
INCLUDING LSM-20 TO THE NETWORK
STEP 1. Prepare the Controller to include a unit to the network by adding it to a group (method of adding a node to the network). Refer to
controller instructions.

DecoraTM trim plate
Note: This module must be “Included in the Network”
only where it will be permanently installed. The proper
operation of this node in the mesh network is dependent
on it knowing its location with respect to other nodes. You
cannot “test bench” configure this module, then install.

The LSM-20 supports the Association command.
The LSM-20 can be set to control other Evolve devices. You can turn on and off, and even dim other Evolve devices once they are “associ-
ated” into either of 2 groups with the LSM-20.
A NOTE ABOUT DIMMERS IN A GROUP: If you combine Evolve enabled dimmers and other types of Evolve devices in a group, place a Evolve
enabled dimmer into the empty group first to ensure that the dimming operates correctly.
Each group is turned on or off (or dimmed by tapping or holding) the switch a differing amount of times.
If you associate a Evolve device into Group 2, you can turn that device on and off by tapping the switch on or off twice. You can brighten
or dim devices by tapping the switch on or off once and then holding the switch down. The load attached to the LSM-20 is not affected.
If you associate a Evolve device into Group 3, you can turn that device on and off by tapping the switch on or off three times. You can brighten
or dim devices by tapping the switch on or off twice and then hold the top or bottom of the switch down. The load attached to the LSM-20
is not affected.
You can associate up to 5 Evolve devices into each of these groups.
For instructions on how to associate a Evolve device into one of these groups, refer to your wireless controller instructions. (If you are using
the IR-100 controller, refer to the Setup Menu, Association section).
Configuration
The LSM-20 supports the Configuration command.
The LSM-20 can be configured to operate slightly differently than how it works when you first install it. Using the Configuration command
you can configure the following:
You can use a IR-100 to send Configuration commands. (Refer to the Setup Menu, Configuration section)
Set Ignore Start Level Bit When Transmitting Dim Commands
The LSM-20 can send Dim commands to Evolve enabled dimmers. The Dim command has a start level embedded in it. A dimmer receiv-
ing this command will start dimming from that start level if this bit is set to 0. If the bit is set to 1, the dimmer will ignore the start level
and instead start dimming from its current level.
Night Light
The LED on the LSM-20 will by default, turn ON when the load attached is turned ON. To make the LED turn ON when the load attached
is turned OFF instead, set parameter 3 to a value of 1.
Invert Switch
To change the top of the switch to OFF and the bottom of the switch ON , set parameter 4 to 1.
Enable Shade Control Group 2
The LSM-20 can control shade control devices via its group 2 if this configuration parameter is set to 1.
The LSM-20 can control shade control devices via its group 3 if this configuration parameter is set to 1.

STEP 2. The LSM-20 must be in its permanently installed location. Tap either the top or bottom of the LSM-20 once.
You should see an indication on your Controller that the “DEVICE WAS INCLUDED” in the network.
NOTE: If you have trouble adding the LSM-20 to a group it may be that the Home ID and Node ID were not cleared from it after testing.
You must first “RESET UNIT” with your controller to remove it from the network. If using the IR-100, select “SETUP” and scroll to “RESET
UNIT”
Although adding it to a group includes it in the network, removing it from a group does not remove it from the network. If removed from a
group, it functions as a repeater (only). “RESET UNIT” removes it completely from the network.
BASIC OPERATION
(Local Control)
The switch paddle on the LSM-20 allows the user to:
• Turn the attached load on or off.
• Include or exclude the module from the Evolve system
• Control other Evolve enabled devices.
Also, when a controller prompts you to “Send Node ID” or to “Press Button on Unit”, quickly tap the switch on or off once to satisfy those
instructions.
• Tapping top of switch turns the load attached ON.
• Tapping bottom of switch turns the load attached OFF.
• Pressing and holding switch does not effect the load attached to the LSM-20, but will allow dimming and brightening of Evolve dim-
mers if associated (see below for details).
LED indication
The LED on the LSM-20 will turn on when the load attached is ON. The LED can be user configured however to turn ON when the load attached
is OFF, if so desired, to act as a night light. See ADVANCED OPERATION section.
The LSM-20 will flicker its LED when it is transmitting to any of its 2 groups. This can be changed if desired. See ADVANCED OPERATION
section.
Auxiliary Switch
The LSM-20 supports the AS101 auxiliary switch to provide 3-way or 4-way operation.
Remote Control
The LSM-20 will respond to BASIC and BINARY commands that are part of the Evolve system. Refer to your controller’s instructions as to
whether your controller can transmit those commands.
Internal circuit protection
The LSM-20 internal circuitry is protected by an internal fuse. This internal fuse is factory serviceable only. Check your home circuit breakers
before concluding that the product must be returned to manufacturer for repair at a nominal charge.
All On/All Off
The LSM-20 supports the ALL ON/ ALL OFF commands.
The LSM-20 can be set to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands four different ways.
Refer to your controller for information on how to set the LSM-20 to operate in the manner you desire. Some controllers may be only able to
set certain settings of ALL ON/ALL OFF response.
The four different ways the LSM-20 can be setup to respond to ALL ON and ALL OFF commands are:
1. LSM-20 will not respond to ALL ON or the ALL OFF command.
2. LSM-20 will respond to ALL OFF command but will not respond to ALL ON command.

LED Transmission Indication
The LSM-20 will flicker its LED when it is transmitting to any of its groups. This flickering can be set to not flicker at all (set to 0), to
flicker the entire time it is transmitting (set to 1), or to flicker for only 1 second when it begins transmitting (set to 2). By default, the
LSM-20 is set to flicker for only 1 second.
Each Configuration Parameter can be set to its default setting by setting the default bit in the Configuration Set command. See your controller’s
instructions on how to do this (and if it supports it).
All Configuration commands will be reset to their default state when the LSM-20 is excluded from the Evolve network by using the controller
to reset the node (on the IR-100 select “SETUP” and scroll to “RESET UNIT”).
SUC Support
There must be a Static Update Controller in your Evolve system for this feature to work. The Static Controller can act as a gateway
in the system, since other nodes always know its position (not moved after addition to the network. The “always listening” advantage of the
Static Controller is that other nodes can transmit information frames to it whenever needed.
You can assign an “SUC Route” to the LSM-20. Refer to your controller’s instructions on how to do this (if it supports it). Assigning an SUC
Route to the LSM-20 allows it to request an update of the Evolve devices that are between it and the Evolve device to which it was trying to
transmit. The LSM-20 will only request an update when a transmission fails.

A Evolve™ network can integrate devices of various classes, and these devices can be made by different manufacturers, just as the LSM-20
can be incorporated into existing Evolve™ networks.
The top or bottom of the LSM-20 switch paddle can be used to carry out inclusion (inclusion to the network by adding to a group), as-
sociation (operate simultaneously with other nodes), exclusion (remove from a group) or reset (remove from the network). Controllers
can be replicated in order to provide operation from other locations.
