AD150 In-Wall Dimmer Module FCC ID: FU5AD150 General Introduction The In-Wall Dimmer Module is designed to wirelessly control on/off and dimming of light bulbs. This device is tiny enough to be installed inside an electrical box behind a wall switch. It also can be connected to the wall switch to allow ordinary manual on/off control. At 220-240V voltage, this module can support up to 300W resistive/ incandescent load, or 200W fluorescent load. It supports U-Net two-way wireless technology and is fully compatible with any U-Net enabled devices. The U-net protocol allows end devices such as AD150 to pair with a U-Net gateway as central control making it suitable for smart home cloud based platforms such as HomeSys.

Control button Safety Precautions before Installation Be sure to isolate or switch off mains power before installing or maintenance. Avoid installing the unit in stormy or raining weather. Do ensure that the power supply circuit is protected by a 16 amp circuit breaker or Wiring Terminals suitable equivalent fuse. IMPORTANT Installation must be performed by skilled technicians who are informed about the standards and technical requirements of the appliance and its proper installation. Note that the In-Wall Dimmer Module is designed to be installed in a wall switch box to operate. Check your local codes as they apply to your situation. If the house wiring is of aluminum, consult with an electrician about proper wiring methods. Before proceeding with the installation, TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE LIGHTING CIRCUIT AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BOX TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Installation 1. Switch off or isolate the AC mains power before installing. 2. The In-Wall Dimmer Module supports both 3-wire (with neutral wire) and 2-wire (without neutral wire) connections. The in-wall module should be connected to AC mains and the load (L1) according to one of the following wiring diagram. 3-wire Wiring Diagram 2-wire Wiring Diagram Note: By default switch contact S1 supports Single-Pole-Double-Throw (SPDT) type of binary switch. However, through the setting of Gateway or using the On/Off button, S1 can be configured to support Tact/Push-button switches as well. Refer to the Operation section. 3. Switch the AC mains power back on to power up the unit. Binding with HomeSys 4. If the Gateway was powered off, wait until the Gateway is fully powered on and ready for binding. 5. Log into the HomeSys account from a web browser. 6. Select System. 7. Select Add a New Device, then In Wall Switch. 1 8. The following screen will appear. This means the gateway is entering binding mode. 9. Make sure the LED on the unit is turned off. If it is on, press the Link Key once to turn it off. 10. Press and hold the Link button on the in-wall module for 3 seconds until its LED turn on then release. The LED will start to flash. Using the gateway:
User can turn on/off and dim* the light bulb. The LED indicator on the module will also turn on or off accordingly. Using the external wall switch For Binary switch :
- User can only turn on/off the light bulb. Diming function is not supported. A message will be sent to the Gateway each time when the module is manually turned on or off. For Tact/Push button switch :
- User can turn on/off and dim* the light bulb. A message will be sent to the Gateway each time the button is pressed. Refer to the Control Button table below to configure the In-Wall module for this type of switch. Note: External dimmer type switch is not supported. Using the Control Button Refer to the table below:
11. The screen below will appear in 10 seconds if the process is successful and the LED Action/Status indicator will stop flashing. Note: If the LED flashes rapidly 3 times after 30 seconds, this indicates the binding was unsuccessful. Please refer to the Troubleshooting section. Operation The In-Wall module can be operated either remotely through the gateway, manually using a connected wall switch, or manually through its own Control Button. On/off Dimming*
Description Quick press on the Control button to turn on and turn off the light bulb When the light is ON, press and hold the Control button. The light bulb will dim up and dim down repeatedly until the button is released. LED indicator LED on = Light is on LED off =Light is off LED remains on. Change switch input from binary switch mode to tact switch mode or vice versa. When device is OFF, press link key for over 5 seconds but no more than 8 seconds. LED will flash the first time after 3 seconds and flash again after 5 seconds. If pressed longer than 8 seconds the LED will flash 3 times indicating the change did not take effect.
*Note:
- This applies to dimmable type LED bulb only. Attempt to dim a non-dimmable LED bulb will have unpredictable results and may cause damage to the LED bulb.
-The maximum brightness in 2-wire configuration shall be about 75% of the bulbs rated power. Whenever the module is powered up again, usually after a power-cut, it will send a message to gateway to report its status. 2 Troubleshooting Symptom Cause of Failure Recommendation Device not responding and LED not displaying The device is not wired to the mains power correctly Check if wiring is correct, or voltage is too high or too low LED displaying, but cannot control On/Off status of connected load The connected load has its own on/off switch Turn the switch of the connected load to On. Can press button to control, but cannot control by RF Binding was not successful Binding again using the manual binding steps in the next section Cannot dim to the brightest level when in 3-wire configuration Max dim level in gateway is set to 2-wire instead of 3-wire settings. Through the gateways interface set the Max level to 3-wire settings. Wattage of LED lamp is lower than the minimum required load for this unit. LED lamp is not compatible Use LED lamp with higher wattage than minimum required load, see the Specification section Try adding the capacitor that is shipped with this module. Connect the capacitor between the L and LS terminal as shown below. Dimmable LED flashes Adding the capacitor 3-wire 2-wire WARNING: To prevent any electrical short circuit, make sure the exposed wires of the capacitor terminals are fully tucked inside the connector of the module. Reset to Factory Settings To reset the unit back to factory default state:
1. Make sure the LED on the unit is turned off. If it is on, press the Link Key once to turn it off. 2. Press and hold the Link button on the in-wall module for 3 seconds until its LED turn on then release. The LED will start to flash. 3. Press and hold the Link button again for more than 6 seconds until the LED turns off, then release. The LED will flash every 2 seconds indicating the unit is now reset back to factory default settings. Initial Power Up and Auto Binding Once reset back to factory settings and first powered up again, the unit will automatically enter binding mode in an attempt to pair with any U-net compatible Gateway. This is called Auto-binding. If a gateway is not present and the 30 seconds period expires, the LED indicator on the unit will flash slowly every 2 seconds, implying that the unit has never paired with any device. Auto-binding can be restarted again by disconnecting and reconnecting power to the unit. Note: During the Auto-binding period of 30 seconds, the Control button is dedicated for binding use only. Pressing the Control button will not turn on/off the connected light bulb.
