The next generation of lighting control technology is here with

the new Decora® Digital Switch with Bluetooth® Technology. This

innovative device works using the Leviton Decora® Digital Dimmer &

Timer app that can be easily downloaded to smartphones or tablets

and paired to the Leviton Switch using Bluetooth® technology.

Decora® Digital Devices give users point-to-point local control to

automate lighting, bridging the gap between standard switches and

whole-house automation systems.

Enjoy the combined functions of a standard wall switch and

a countdown or programmable timer switch in one attractive

device. Use of the app allows greater flexibility for accurate timer

functionality and makes pushing buttons for timed events a tedious

chore of the past.

The Leviton Decora® Digital Dimmer & Timer app can be easily

downloaded to mobile devices and is compatible with Android and

iOS smartphones or tablets. The app is easy to use with simple,

intuitive on-screen menu options to independently control Decora®

Digital dimmers and switches throughout the home.

Decora® Digital Devices are ideal for living rooms, bedrooms,

kitchens, dining rooms, home offices, outdoor lighting or anywhere

full control of lighting is desired.

WIRING COORDINATING REMOTE (wall box with load

connection):

Connect wires per WIRING DIAGRAM as follows:

NOTE: "BK" and "RD" terminals on coordinating remote are

unused. Tighten both screws.

• Green or bare copper wire in wall box to Green terminal screw.

• Load wall box wire identified (tagged) when removing old switch

to First Traveler (note color as above).

• Second Traveler wall box wire (note color as above) to terminal

screw marked "YL/RD". This traveler from the remote must go to

the terminal screw on the switch marked "YL/RD".

• Remove White insulating label from terminal screw marked

"WH".
