WIRELESS SWITCH

    The switch can be installed 35m away from the Hub and that includes wall penetration. If there is no obstruction between the Hub and the switch, the distance can go beyond 35m.

    You can install a repeater which allows for much greater distance transmission.

    After connecting to a WisQo receiver, you have to use our wireless switch to control the lights. The original switch has to left turned on for the receiver to work. You can also short the live wire in the circuit box to keep it always connected.
