Congratulations! You now have the convenience, flexibility and security of The Clapper Plus. No other product
allows you to control your lights and appliances by sound
and RF (Radio Frequency) remote control.
With The Clapper Plus, you can turn on or off up to two
different appliances by clapping your hands. Clap two
times to operate one appliance and three times to operate
a different appliance. In addition to clapping, you can also
turn on or off your appliances by pressing the buttons on
the remote control.
The Clapper Plus also has a special AWAY mode. In
this mode almost any noise will turn on the connected
appliance(s) which can be used as a limited function security
device to discourage potential intruders. The AWAY mode
is also great for temporarily turning on lights when entering
a dark room such as a garage or basement. In this mode
there is no need to clap or press any button -- any noise will
turn on the lights!
For QUICK INSTRUCTIONS on operating your Clapper
Plus, please refer to the yellow Quick Tips card.

OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCES
BY CLAPPING
How to operate an appliance with 2 claps:
1. Slide the Home/Away switch to the Home position.
2. Turn the dial up (Counter Clockwise) to the highest 		
sensitivity setting(# 9).
a. Adjust it down to reduce the Clapper from
		 detecting unwanted noise
3. Plug an appliance into the top receptacle (II) of The
Clapper Plus.
4. Plug the Clapper Plus into the wall socket.
5. Make sure any power switches on the appliance or lamps
are in the on position.
6. You can now turn your appliance on and off by clapping.
You don’t have to clap very hard! The clapping sequence is
more important than how loudly you clap.
CLAP (pause) CLAP (pause) (pause) (pause)
where each pause is approximately ½ second long. The
three pauses after the second clap are very important since
the Clapper Plus must determine that you are not going to
clap a third time. If you did clap a third time, the appliance
connected to the III clap receptacle would activate..

HOW TO OPERATE AN APPLIANCE
WITH 3 CLAPS:
1. Slide the Home/Away switch to the Home position.
2. Turn the dial up (Counter Clockwise) to the highest
sensitivity setting(# 9).
a. Adjust it down to reduce the Clapper
		 from detecting unwanted noise.
3. Plug an appliance into bottom receptacle (III) 		
of the Clapper Plus.
4. Plug Clapper Plus into the wall socket.
5. Make sure any power switches on the appliance 		
or lamps are in the on position.
6. You can now turn your appliance on and off by clapping.
You don’t have to clap very hard. The clapping sequence
is more important than how loudly you clap:
CLAP (pause) CLAP (pause) CLAP (pause)
where each pause is approximately ½ second long. The
last pause after the third clap is very important since the
Clapper Plus must determine if you are not going to clap
a fourth time. If you did clap a fourth time, the appliance
would not activate.
— 5—
Clap Sensitivity
You can adjust your Clapper Plus to respond to soft or loud
claps, as well as adjust for the noise level in your room.
By adjusting the sensitivity dial on the Clapper you can
adjust the Clapper’s sensitivity to your claps and reduce
detecting unwanted noise. Turning the dial fully counter
clockwise(# 9) is the highest sensitivity. In this position
the Clapper will detect soft claps.
As you turn the dial clockwise the sensitivity is reduced.
This give you control over the claps it will detect and help
you reduce false activation due to external noises.
Clap Detection Lights
The three red lights on the face of the Clapper Plus will
help you determine the proper way to clap your appliances
on or off. Each clap detection light will glow when a proper
clap (or similar sound) is detected.
Claps that are too soft will not be detected. Claps that are
too fast together or too long apart will be rejected as noise
and as a result the appliance will not turn on. When the
Clapper Plus detects the first clap the first light will glow.
The second light will glow if a second clap is detected
about ½ second after the first clap occurs. If the Clapper
Plus does not detect a third clap, it will activate the
—6—
appliance attached to the “II Clap side.” If a third clap is
detected, then the third light will glow and the appliance
connected to the “III Clap Side” will activate.
OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCES
USING THE REMOTE CONTROL
Installing the remote switch battery
1. Remove battery cover by using a coin and turn clockwise.
2. Insert the included C2032 Lithium battery positive (+) 		
side facing toward you.
3. Replace the battery cover. Use a coin and turn
counter-clockwise to lock the cover.

wiping it clean with water.
Place a small amount of water on your finger tip. Wipe
the tape clean and allow to air dry. This can be repeated as
many times as needed.
Key Ring
The wire key ring (enclosed) can be attached to the end of
the remote to make the remote more portable. Connect to a
keychain and be able to turn on your lights as you are entering your house, or use a safety pin to attach to your clothing

THE AWAY MODE
When in the AWAY mode, both appliances will turn on
with the detection of any sound.
To operate The Clapper Plus in the AWAY mode
1. Slide the Home/Away switch to the Away position. Both 		
attached lamps will turn on for 10 seconds. This allows 		
you to leave the room with the lights on.
2. After the 10 seconds the lights turn off and the
Clapper Plus is ready to detect any noise.
3. The Left Red clap detection light will blink to 			
indicate the Clapper is in the Away Mode.
4. When the Clapper detects a sound your appliances will turn 		
on and remain on for about 10 minutes and then turn off. 		
The Clapper will then reset itself until the next sound is heard.
5. Set the sensitivity dial to the best position for the level
of noise you want to detect ( #9 Most sensitive, #1 Least
Sensitive).
TIPS
• Start at the lowest sensitivity by turning sensitivity dial
clockwise to #1 and then increase the sensitivity to the
level you desire.
• Sliding the Home/Away switch from “Away to Home and 		
— 9—
back to the Away” position again will reset the timer. This 		
can be helpful when determining the correct dial setting.
HINTS AND TIPS
1. If the Clapper Plus does not turn on
while Clapping
a. Make sure the Clapper Plus is plugged in properly. 		
		 When the clapper is first plugged in the red lights 		
		 on the front of the Clapper Plus will sequence 		
		 through a startup pattern.
b. Make sure the Appliance is plugged into the Clap 		
		 II or Clap II receptacle.
c. Make sure the Appliance is turned on. You can tell 		
		 if the appliance is on by the orange glow next to the 		
		 Clap II or Clap III receptacle.
d. Make sure the Claps are loud enough and have 		
		 the correct timing. See above for the timing of
		 the claps.
e. The Clapper Plus is protected by a non-replace		
		 able fuse. If one of the sockets is overloaded the fuse 		
		 will blow and will permanently disable the Clapper.
f. Don’t cover the Clapper with drapes or place
		 behind furniture that will block the Clap’s sound 		
— 10 —
		 from reaching the Clapper.
g. Even though it is not required, the Clapper works 		
		 best when there is a direct line of sight from the 		
		 clapping sounds to the Clapper.
h. In a larger rooms with echos, the Clapper may 		
		 detect an echo as noise and reject the Clap. To
		 avoid this problem, turn the Clapper dial to
		 lower sensitivity(smaller numbers).
2. If the Clapper Plus does not turn on the
appliance when the remote button is pressed.
a. Make sure the battery is good and install correctly
b. Move the Remote to another position. Move it up 		
		 or down or move it closer to the Clapper Plus. Keep 		
		 the Remote away from metal objects or walls that 		
		 will interfere with the Radio waves.
c. Make sure the remote is within 25 feet of the Clapper.
d. Make sure the appliance is plugged into the correct 		
		 outlet on the Clapper Plus and the button you are 		
		 pressing corresponds to that outlet.
e. Sometimes it is good to reset the Clapper
		 and the Remote.
i. To reset the Clapper Plus unplug it and wait 10 		
—11 —
		 seconds and plug it back into the wall socket.
ii. To reset the Remote remove and replace the battery.
YOU CAN OPERATE UP TO 4 CLAPPER
PLUS UNITS INDEPENDENTLY OF
EACH OTHER
Overview
Normally, if you have a Clapper Plus in one room and
a second Clapper Plus in the next room, the Remote
Control(s) will control both units. To have the Clapper
Plus units work independently, follow the instructions
below:
The Clapper Plus works with Radio Frequencies much
like your TV. To operate multiple Clappers independently
you need to set the Radio Frequency, “Channel”, for
each Clapper Plus base units and also for its remote.
Each Clapper Plus and its remote can be set to channel
1, 2, 3 or 4.
When first plugged in, the Clapper Plus unit start out set
at channel 1. When the battery is put into the remote, the
remote’s channel is also set to 1.
Each Clapper Plus remote control has two buttons, Button
II and Button III. These normally are used to control the
— 12 —
appliances (lamps) plugged into the Clapper Plus base unit,
but when both are pressed at the same time, they are used
to set the channels on the Remote and also send a signal to
the Clapper Base unit to set its channel.
SETTING CLAPPER PLUS CHANNELS
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Plug the Clapper into the wall socket where you want
to use it.
2) Place the Home/Away switch into the AWAY position.
In the Away Mode:
a. The right LED will flash
b. and appliances or lamps plugged into the Clapper 		
		 they will turn on for 10 seconds.
3) Set the channel by pressing and releasing both buttons
on the Remote Control at the same time. Press both
1, 2, 3 or 4 times depending on the Channel number
you want to set.
a. NOTE: When pressing the buttons on the remote, 		
		 hold them down until you see all three Red lights on 		
		 the Clapper Plus turn on, then release the buttons.
4) Place the Home/ Away switch to the HOME position
and you are done.
— 13—
CONFIRMING THE CHANNEL SETTING
You can confirm that the Clapper Base unit and the Remote
are set to the correct channel.
This is easy because it happens automatically each time
you press one of the remote’s buttons. The Clapper Plus
base will display (after 4 seconds) the channels by flashing
the Red lights on the Clapper.
To allow you to see which channel the Clapper Base and
the remote are set at, the Clapper Red indicator lights flash
once for each channel. For channel 1, the lights flash once,
for Channel two the lights flash twice, etc.
The Middle light shows the channel the Clapper Base is set at
The Right light shows the channel the Remote is set at.
Example 1; Press, hold and release a remote button 		
(wait 4 seconds) and if both the Middle and Right red 		
lights flash three times, they are both set to channel 3.
Example 2: If the Middle flashes 1 time and the 		
Right Light flashes 2 times this means the
Clapper Base is set for Channel 1 and the Remote
is set for channel 2. (In this configuration the Remote 		
will not control the Clapper Base.
Unplugging the Clapper will reset the channel to 1.If you
have more units to set, repeat steps 1 through 4.
— 14 —
HINTS AND TIPS:
1. Each time you start the channel setting process the
Channel number starts at Channel 1.
2. If the Clapper is unplugged or there is a power fail in 		
your home, the Clapper base will default base to channel 		
1. (But the remote will not) They will now be at different
channels and not operate.
3. If the Clapper and Remote are not on the same channel. 		
Just start over and set the channels as described above to 		
get them working again.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
1. Do not use The Clapper Plus with any electrical heating 		
appliances such as toasters, hair dryers, coffee pots, etc.
2. Do not use The Clapper Plus with any appliance that can 		
create a fire hazard with prolonged use.
3. The maximum wattage for an appliance is 200 watts in 		
either outlet. Do not exceed 400 watts total.
4) Do not plug the Clapper into a dimming circuit. This will
damage the Clapper and is a fire hazard.
