PROGRAMMING TRANSMITTERS (TC SERIES) / SENSORSIn order to operate the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer remotely with a transmitter or sensor, it must be programmed to the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer. Each module can be operated by up to 16 different transmitters (or 16 different command signals). There are 3 operating modes with the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer:1) On / Off Mode - When a valid signal is received, it will toggle the load, i.e. turning off or on the light2) Flashing Mode - When a valid signal is received, the light will flash for a specific period of time, which is the time defined in the timer duration. This works as an alert indication. 3) Timer Mode - When a valid signal is received, the load will be on for a specific period of time, from 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutesYou can program multiple transmitters / sensors to the module and each transmitter / sensor can operate in its own mode.To program a transmitter / Sensor into the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer, follow the instructions below. 1.

Press the PROG button on the back of the TC transmitter with a sharp object. Red LED on the transmitter will be on steadily. 8. Press the button on the TC transmitter that you would like to program into the module. 9. Once the transmitter is programmed, the red LED on the module flashes quickly then stops flashing, indicating you have successfully programmed the transmitter to the module.10.You may operate the light with the programmed transmitter. Note: To program other transmitters/sensors (besides TC transmitter), please refer to the instructions of thetransmitters/sensors.Note: You must complete the programming sequence within the 15-second interval, otherwise, the module will quit from programming mode and you need to start again from step 1 if the red LED is off. You may follow the same instructions to program additional transmitters or sensors to operate the receiver module. “PROG” switchPress thedesired buttonAs mentioned, the timer can be set to the following durations, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes. There is only one timer setting, so all transmitters that are programmed in timer mode will have the same timer duration. To set the timer duration, follow the instructions below:123ON/OFF FLASH TIMERNote: Lighting LoadThe is designed to operate maximum load of 200W at 120VAC. It can dim incandescent light and designated dimming compact fluorescent light. Do not connect other kinds of loading or loading that exceeds this maximum rating. Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer

Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds, the red LED flashes once. The number of flash indicates the timer duration:CAUTIONDO NOT TOUCH ANY METAL PARTS WHILE PRESSING THE SET BUTTON. MAKING CONTACT WITH METAL PARTS CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAUSING SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY.4. Continue to hold the SET button until it reaches the desired setting. The status will change every 6 seconds, i.e. hold onto the SET button for another 6 seconds, you will see the number of flashes changes from 1 to 2, 2 to 3 etc. Note: Once the number of flash reaches 5, it will stay at this setting. If you would like to go back to other settings, such as 1 flash, release the button and repeat from step 1 to start over. Once a transmitter (button) is programmed in timer mode, activating this programmed transmitter (button) will turn on the light for the specific timer interval. During a timer count down, if the module receives another signal for timer operation, the timer will start again and overrides the previous timer, therefore, extending the on period by another timer duration. If a transmitter is programmed under ON / OFF operating mode, the programmed transmitter can control the lights either in:1) On / Off Mode Allows operating the light either on and off, without dimming function.2) Dimming Mode Allows operating the light in on, off and dimming (dim / brighten) modes. Light must be either incandescent light and designated dimming compact fluorescent light.The Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer allows on / off operation, when the programmed button is activate, it will transmit a signal to toggle its current status. For example, if a signal is received when the light is off, that signal will turn on the light. Transmitter can only be used to operate the light when the wall switch is in the ON position. If the wall switch is in the OFF position, no power is provided to the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer, therefore it cannot receive signals from the transmitter.ONOFFRemote WorksRemote Does NotWorkThere is a function "Power On - Light On" built in to the receiver module. This means when the power supply to the receiver module change from off to on, this will turn the light on. This function allows you to operate the light with original wall switch.When the wall switch is in the off position, switching it on will turn on the light. Once the switch is on, you may use the remote control to operate the light. If the wall switch is switched from on to off, the light will be off. At the same time, the remote control cannot operate the light cause there is no power supplied to the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer. In case you do not want to operate the light with the original wall switch, you can disable this Power On - Light On feature and use only remote control to operate the light. One incident that the light may be turned on by accident is after a power failure. If you leave the wall switch on, but turn off the light with a remote control. When power comes back on, the light will be on. Therefore, there is an option not to turn the lights on when power is supplied to the receiver module. The way to disable this feature is to re-program a transmitter (button) that is already programmed to the receiver module (i.e. program a transmitter twice). This will disable this feature. You may re-program it again to toggle the setting between enabling and disabling this feature.If the Power On - Light On feature is disabled, the light will not be turned on under most circumstances, i.e. power comes back up after power failure, or manually turning on the wall switch. However, you can still turn on the light by the wall switch with a specific power up sequence, that is to turn on the wall switch twice within 2 seconds. So in case the remote control is lost, you can still operate the light. Power On - Light OnBesides turning on and off the light, you may also dim the light if the light bulb is dimmable, i.e. either incandescent light and designated dimming compact fluorescent light. Again, you can control this by a transmitter or the wall switch itself. To change the brightness, first turn on the light.Press and hold the programmed button on the transmitter will change its brightness. Hold onto the button until the desired brightness is reached, then release the button.Press and hold the same button again on the transmitter to change the brightness again in the opposite way (i.e. Dim to brighten or brighten to dim), until the desired brightness is reached, then release the button. Dimming Mode OperationThe factory default operating mode is On/Off mode. However, if your light is dimmable, you may change the operating mode to Dimming Mode. To change the operating modes, please follow the instructions below.1. Turn on the light by the programmed transmitter.2. Press and hold onto a button on the transmitter that is programmed to the module for 10 seconds.3. The light will flash. If it flashes once, that means it is in On / Off Mode. If the light flashes twice, that means it is in Dimming Mode.4. Repeating step 3 above will toggle the setting between On / Off Mode and Dimming Mode. Changing Between On / Off Mode and Dimming ModeIf a transmitter or a sensor is programmed to the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer under flashing mode, when that transmitter is activated, the light connected will flash for the predetermined time interval. During the flashing operation, the red LED on the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer will flash, indicating it is now in flashing mode. After the timer interval, the light bulb will be off.Note:When used with Compact Fluorescent Light, if there is flickering when youswitch off the light, it is recommended you replace a different Compact Fluorescent Light with higher quality.
7. ZONE OPERATION8. ERASING TRANSMITTERS FROM THE MODULEA Zone Command allows you to operate multiple lights at the same time in the same zone. To set this up, simply program the zone signal into the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmers and other receiver modules that are in the same zone. For instance, you may assign zone 1 to the 3 lighting fixtures in the family room (each light has its own receiver module). You then need to program the Zone Command to all 3 receiver modules. To activate the zone command, simply press “Zone On” or “Zone Off”, then the zone number, i.e. [Zone On] + [1] means Zone 1 On. Enter [Zone On] + [Zone Number] during step 8 of the programming sequence (Section 3), the Zone Command signal would be programmed. Repeat this step for all the receiver modules in the same zone. You may erase a transmitter or sensor from the Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer, but you cannot erase a specific device, you must erase all the wireless devices, then program the ones you want to keep. Follow the instructions below to erase programmed transmitters / sensors.1. Turn off the light and Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer by the wall switch. 2. Place the operating mode slide switch to the “Timer” position. 3. Press and hold the SET button, while holding onto the SET button, turn on the light and Screw In Lamp Socket Dimmer by the wall switch. You may need another person helping you to do this. Do not release the SET button until step 5.4. The red LED will flash quickly.5. You may release the SET button, the light bulb is now on, and the red LED will be on steadily indicating you have successfully erased all the devices. 6. You may now program the transmitters / sensors that you would like to keep. Input Voltage: 120V AC, 60HzStandby Current: 5mAMaximum Load: 200W at 120AVC Operating Frequency: 318MHz10.
