What is the red wire and switch for?

It is the reset button for the isimple, it's for if your device is having problems with audio, connection, etc. Connect it to the isimple and just tuck the button under some trim out of sight.

I wondered too and the answer is not in the manual which is just a paragraph or two. My guess is that the red light indicates the power is on and is recharging the battery. That makes most sense.

Hi, Jay: Just make sure that the white wire from the switch is connected to the neutral (normally white) in the box and that the switch black wire is connected to the 120 volts coming into the box and the red wire from the switch is connected to the load (what you are switching): That would be the only thing I can think of to cause your problem is to have the black and red wire from the switch reversed.

Not sure. I have red and black. Maybe get some sense by opening the back cover of the control box that has the on/off switch and button.

I dont really know.I can tell you that in one position the switch connects the two top terminals to the 2 middle terminals In the other position it connects the bottom 2 terminals to the 2 middle terminals

You don't need the red wire if you are not using a second switch for a three way circuit

Not sure what the Red wire means? I introduce one wire to be stripped at a time. If dual wire, I strip back the outer cover freeing the conductors to be fed in one wire at a time. Works great for my purposes. Feed wire into stripper until it stops. Then squeeze handles and pull out perfectly stripped wire, e.g., about 1/4" of wire end is fully exposed to insert into whatever............

You have two separate wire connectors for accessories instead of one. One switch for two items

I installed a master disconnect switch so I could shut down power to the switch panel. The red lights indicate that power is going to the switch so as long as power is supplied they will be on by design.

Thanks for answer - and for person who asked question.We wondered what that wire was for also. It's not listed anywhere in the instruction manual.

Not sure what you are asking, it simply replaces the switch. Whatever the switch is connected to turns off and on. Make sure you know what you are doing or hire a pro, this needs a common some existing switches do not have one available.

You leave the red master switch on. Whatever is plugged into the main plug in controls the on/off for the controlled devices. The main plug has to be a fairly high draw device in order to have enough voltage difference to activate the sensor.

Most likely one of the outlets is turned on by a wall switch, hence the extra wire. If you have a switch that you can't figure out what it is for, it may be one of the power wires to that outlet (either red or black, most likely red).

The "Master" plug controls the "Switched" outlets. So, for example, I have my TV plugged into the Master. When I turn it on or off, it switches the power to the Switched outlets, where I have my DVD player and my Wii. You don't need to do anything with red switch.

One red wire is for power. The other turns all the lights on. For ex. if you wanted all the lights to come on when you press the brake for some reason.

The red plug is where the camera connects for power. The red and black wires get connected to the back-up light, the red plug is where the camera gets it's power and the yellow is for the video signal.

I sent it back, I don't remember which side the switch was on! They sell the ones for wiring !
