Module Compatibility and Console Box Specifications:
When preparing to install the 1D smart switch, understanding its compatibility and console box requirements is crucial for a successful setup:
Module Name: 1D
Console Box Size: 78 mm x 78 mm (3" x 3")
Module Specifications:
- Dimmer Switch (D): 100W max
Installation and Wiring Guide:
- Turn off the power at the breaker box.
- Label the phase, neutral, earth, and other load wires in the wall console box.
- Study the terminal labels on the product's wiring sticker to ensure correct wire connections.
-
Connect the wires to their designated terminals as indicated below:
- Neutral (N): Powers the device.
- Phase 1 (P1) UPS/EB: Primary power supply.
- Phase 2 (P2) EB: Alternative power source or looped with P1.
- Dimmer 1 (D) UPS/EB: Controls the individual dimmer light.
- Check the wiring setup video for your specific type at home. Ensure all connections are correct, secure, and free of loose strands.
- Use insulation tape to secure exposed terminals and wire joints.
- Use a prying tool to carefully remove the glass panel without touching the circuit board.
- Insert the enclosure into the 2-module metal console box and secure it using the provided screws (M3.5*30mm).
- Align the top glass with the enclosure and press it firmly to lock it in place, ensuring that all four corners are securely locked.
- Restore power and test the switch for proper functionality.

Wiring Setup Scenarios:
Type 1: Single Power Source (EB or UPS and Common Neutral)
- The phases for EB and UPS will remain separate.
- The neutral line will be common for both EB and UPS.
- In the above scenario, the phase and neutral connections will be as follows:
-
- The UPS or EB phase is connected to P2, providing power to the device.
- The UPS or EB phase is also connected to P1 (looped from P2), providing power to the load (D).
- The common neutral will be connected to N.
