Setup of the Wall Dimmer is simple. Simply replace your existing wall switch by the Wall Dimmer.
CAUTION 
3. PROGRAMMING TRANSMITTERS (TC SERIES) / SENSORS
In order to operate the Wall Dimmer remotely with a transmitter or sensor, it must be programmed to the Wall Dimmer. Each module can be operated by up to 8 different transmitters (or 8 different command signals).
There are 3 operating modes with the Wall Dimmer :
1)Regular Mode - When a valid signal is received, it will turn on or off the light, or change the brightness of the light.
2)Flashing Alert 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)Countdown Timer Mode - When a valid signal is received, the light will be on for a specific period of time, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes. This is mainly for energy saving.
You can program multiple buttons/transmitters / sensors to the module and different button/transmitter / sensor can activate a different mode.
To program a TC series transmitter into the Wall Switch Dimmer under regular mode, follow the instructions below:
1.Wall Dimmer must be installed and powered properly. Touch the touch pad. The connected light should be on, and the 2 blue LEDs are off.
2.Press and hold the “SET” button for about 3 seconds, until the upper blue LED flashes quickly.
