These devices are designed for a WIRED environment. This will NOT work wirelessly.

It is a wired switch. The only way you'll be able control a light that is only wired to one switch is to run a new set of wires to the new location or replace the existing switch with one that has a remote control.

Georgios,Unfortunately this is a wired switch. There are some that offer wireless remote capability but I have not tested any of those.

Well, I will tell you that each wireless switch has a wireless frequency. When I ordered two, they both came with a sticker on them that said channel "D". This is a bad thing if you don't want the two to interact with each other. If you want two switches to turn on two lights, it can be a good thing. Not want I wanted, so I responded to the company with my complaint. They said they usually don't give refunds or exchanges, but would in my case. The gave me a UPS postage to send it back and they sent me a new switch with wireless frequency "E". I don't see how to specify a frequency on the page, but it is important if you want two separate switches. Other than that, it's a great product. Works fine.

Yes you can have multiple remotes controlling the same light. Simply add node to first controller which will make this as a primary controller. Now , add second remote as secondary to this primary remote and transfer the network information. Instructions are described here: http://www.jascoproducts.com/support/manual-downloads/applications/DocumentLibraryManager/upload/45600-Manual-Eng.pdf . It might get a little confusing at first, but it should be very easy once you try it.

If you can chain them together. The light controller will control as many lights as you have, but you have to chain them from one light to the other. You can only put one input into the controller.

Ours is wired to use two switches. Not an electrician, but I would imagine you could wire them both to one switch if desired.

Mary...actually I am a retired master electrician. I am hoping you find someone to install this product for you. It certainly is not a difficult task for someone who half-way knows what he is doing. Basically it would involve wiring a three conductor cable (Romex) from the new Heath sensor so that the cable's white wire goes to the same neutral feeding the light fixture, the cable's red wire would go to the powered wire on the existing light fixture, and the cable's black wire would go to the same hot circuit feeding the existing three way. Note that the Heath sensor has the identical color wires as the proposed new Romex and they make up color for color (red, white, black). Mary...actually I am a retired master electrician.

Well No, You cant ... I had a dual switch as well that controlled 2 different lighting, and I ordered this one and tried and it does not work. I dont think there is anything out there for dual switch. Also for zwave to work you need to have reciever like Vera etc...I am not sure if you have that.Hope that helps.

Out of the box, units operate independently, therefore will not have any problems using one for the ceiling and another one for the floor. Note that multiple controllers may be programmed to be operated by a single remote. Keep in mind that in such a configuration, the lights connected to different controllers may not change colors at exactly the same time (in auto color-changing mode).

THE light will only work wired one way ,, it does not hurt the light if you get it wrong, its a goood light i love it

I set mine up with wall controls (1 gang "switch" but with separate fan and light dimmer settings, with its own remote and control system that replaces the one that came with this unit - from Lutron). I did not want to have just the remote, or a single control/switch on the wall. If you're wiring this up new, consider using 12-3 wire (versus 12-2) - the extra "line" (2 hots, 1 neutral, 1 ground) allows you more flexibility with fan/light fixtures for separate controls "at the switch." Incidentally I've had these units a little while now and both are working just fine.

it depends on the type of controller. I have a 12v switch with hard-wire connecters and buttons to control the type of lights I need on. So yeah you can connect 2 or more sets of lights

I only have one of the lights, and there is no provision for switching between frequencies on either the light or the switch. Therefore, I'd say that the lights cannot be controlled independently.

You can operate with just two if the other lights are configured as optical slaves. Do this with my 2 light setups outside all the time.

The router/controller that you get with a starter pack ( is attached to your wifi router) allows you to use as many devices that you want to control the individual bulbs. Once each bulb is registered with the "hub" it can be controlled by as many devices as you desire.

We did not have good ones...looked at pic plus so called directions and worked it out. I had to go to the store to get some good wire so I could tie all he black and white to create just one for each as there were so many to connect...normally this is already done for you by most company's , so this is poor to leave to the consumer esp if you know nothing about electrical . If you do that give yourself enough slack as it's hard to connect if you have to hold it up close. Good luck...light is nice though and looks good

Hi-I had a pro installer put our system in who was familiar with this pioneer line-He had alot of trouble with this issue. Basically you have to have separate inputs for ZONE 2-then you have to switch to zone 2 on the controller. For some reason when I want to switch to zone 2 I have to hit the power button. Once you are on zone 2 you then choose your input source. This system was not very user friendly,,,,but it sounds good.

Yes, I have the same situation. You can leave the switch on the light on and control it from inside, or you leave the inside switch on and control it at the light. It WON'T work like a 3-way.
