Question 1

Why does the Wi-Fi switch often disconnect in the app?

Accepted Answer

Method 1: The Wi-Fi signal may be weak, or there could be too many devices connected to the network. Try resetting the switch and reconnecting it to your Wi-Fi. Ensure the number of connected devices isn’t exceeding your router’s limit, and check if the signal strength in that area is weak.

Method 2: If the switch appears in the app even after disconnecting, check its signal strength (go to Switch -> Edit -> Device Information). If it doesn’t appear in the app, check for power issues. Sometimes, if the screws are too tight, it may cause connection problems. Loosen the screws slightly, reattach the glass panel, and power the switch back on. (Make sure to attach the glass panel first before powering it on.)

Question 2

Why does the Wi-Fi switch automatically turn the light on and off?

Accepted Answer

Method 1: The cycle timing function may be activated. If you don’t need this feature, you can turn it off through the mobile app.

Method 2: Power off the switch and check if the screws are too tight. Over-tightening can affect its operation. Loosen the screws slightly, attach the glass panel first, and then power it back on (always cover the glass panel before powering on).

Question 3

Why can't the Wi-Fi switch be turned on or off?

Accepted Answer

This issue may be due to incorrect wiring or an improperly connected external capacitor. In some cases, incorrect wiring could damage the switch. To resolve this:

Ensure that both the input and output wires are connected correctly.

Check that the capacitor is installed properly to avoid malfunction.

Question 4

How do I install the capacitor?

Accepted Answer

The capacitor should be installed at L1, near the lamp, not behind the switch itself.

Question 5

Why can't the Wi-Fi switch connect to the internet or find a signal?

Accepted Answer

Press and hold the button for 5 seconds and check the indicator light:

If the light is not flashing, the switch may be defective.

If the light is flashing, the issue may be with the connection method. Try reconnecting through the app.

Question 6

The switch can be turned on and off, but why can't it control the light?

Accepted Answer

Method 1: This could be due to incorrect wiring or an improperly connected external capacitor. Ensure that the input and output wiring are correct, and the capacitor is properly installed.

Method 2: If it's a thyristor version, the issue might be a breakdown due to overload. If it's a relay version, check if you can hear the relay clicking when activated.

Question 7

It worked fine at first, but after a month, it stopped working. What caused it to burn out? Is it due to overload?

Accepted Answer

Method 1: The voltage and current may be unstable, or the load might be too high. Check if the power rating of the connected appliances exceeds the switch’s capacity.

Method 2: Power off the switch and check if the screws are too tight. If they are, loosen them slightly, reattach the glass panel, and power the switch back on (always attach the glass panel before turning on the power).

Question 8

Can I link two light bulbs to a 1-way switch and control both at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can connect two bulbs in parallel and control them simultaneously.

Question 9

Why does the light bulb connected to switch L1 flicker or fail to work?

Accepted Answer

If there’s no neutral wire, check if the capacitor has been installed at the bulb and not behind the switch. The capacitor must be properly installed.
L1 is the power supply circuit. If the bulb’s wattage is too low, the current might not form a proper loop. Try installing the bulb in L2, L3, or L4 and test again.
The quality of low-wattage bulbs (below 3W-5W) can sometimes be poor, causing flickering. We recommend replacing the bulb with a higher-quality one.

Question 10

Why did the device explode?

Accepted Answer

An explosion is usually due to incorrect installation by the customer:
The neutral and fire lines may have been connected together.
The neutral and fire lines might have been connected incorrectly.
High-power equipment could have been connected to the switch, causing overload.
