Lighting Controller Setup

The front of each in-wall module will be used by yourself or your installer to pair the module with a Z~Series controller such as a remote control or a USB stick.

The button in the top right hand corner of the module will allow you to put it into setup mode to include or remove the module from your network. The black circle to its left is a light that indicates the setup status of the module.

Australian Z~Series Members

Australian owners of Z~Series homes, or those looking to add Z~Series to their homes, please note: under Australian law an electrician is required to perform all electrical wiring adjustments in your home, including the installation of the in-wall components from the Bespoke part of the Z~Series range. However, as a result of the simplicity of the installation it should be a relatively inexpensive task for any electrician and requires no specialist knowledge.

Please note that as a result of these laws the setup diagrams above should not be considered a 'how to'. Wiring instructions are provided in the manual with each in-wall module and should be referred to by your installer.
