AJAX WallSwitch User manual

WallSwitch User manual
Updated September 30, 2019
WallSwitch is a device that combines a wireless power on/off relay for
electrical appliances and a power consumption meter. The miniature body
of the device is adapted for installation in a European type socket.
WallSwitch should be only installed by a qualified electrician! Regardless of the type of the
electrical circuit in which the device is installed.
WallSwitch operates only with the Ajax security system (it may not be used
in any third-party security systems), by connecting via the
protected Jeweller protocol to the hub. Communication range –up to 1,000
meters, absent any obstacles.
Operates only with Ajax hubs. Connection to ocBridge and uartBridge integration modules is not
provided.
The Ajax security system is self-sustaining, but the user can connect it to
the central monitoring station of a private security company.

WallSwitch Operating Principle
The WallSwitch input terminals are connected to the mains, and the output
terminals are connected to the socket or electrical appliance/electrical
system of the room. WallSwitch turns on/off 230 V power supply according
to the scenarios or at user command via the Ajax Security System application.
WallSwitch is furnished with a protection system against voltage variation
beyond the range of 161V –264V or overcurrent protection above 13А. In
this case, the power supply is interrupted, resuming after normalization of
the voltage and current values.
The maximum resistive load on the relay is 3 kW.
You may view the consumed power of the electrical appliances connected
via WallSwitch through the application. There is a consumed electricity
meter in place.
Connecting to the hub
Before starting connection:
1. Following the hub instruction recommendations, install the Ajax
application on your smartphone. Create an account, add the hub to the
application, and create at least one room.
2. Go to the Ajax application.
3. Switch on the hub and check the internet connection (via Ethernet cable
and/or GSM network).
4. Ensure that the hub is disarmed and does not start updates by checking its
status in the mobile application.
5. Connect WallSwitch to the power supply and wait for 30 seconds.
Only users with administrative privileges can add the device to the hub.

How to connect the WallSwitch to the hub:
1. Select the Add Device option in the Ajax application.
2. Name the device, scan/write manually the QR Code (located on the body
and packaging), and select the location room.
3. Select Add —the countdown will begin.
4. Press the WallSwitch functional button (or apply the load to the device no
less than 20 W, e.g. by switching on an iron or electric kettle).
For the detection and interfacing to occur, the device should be located within the coverage area
of the wireless network of the hub (at a single protected object).
Request for connection to the hub is transmitted for a short time at the time
of switching on the device.
If the connection to the hub fails, wait for 30 seconds and retry the
connection procedure.
The WallSwitch connected to the hub will appear in the list of devices of the
hub in the application. Update of the detector statuses in the list depends
on the device inquiry time set in the hub settings, with the default value –
36 seconds.
When switching on for the first time, the relay is in open status! After deleting WallSwitch from
the system, the Ajax switch opens the relay!

Indication
The WallSwitch light indicator may light up green depending on the device
status.
The green LED of WallSwitch will blink intermittently if it is not assigned to
the hub. When the functional button is pressed, the green LED lights up.

Functionality testing
The Ajax security system allows conducting tests for checking the
functionality of connected devices.
The tests do not start straight away but within a period of 36 seconds when
using the standard settings. The test time start depends on the settings of
the detector scanning period (the paragraph on “Jeweller” settings in hub
settings).

Installation of the Device
WallSwitch should be only installed by a qualified electrician! Regardless of the type of the
electrical circuit in which the device is installed
WallSwitch is designed for installation inside a socket box with the diameter
50 mm and more and the depth no less than 70 mm. The relay can also be
installed within extension cords and other circuits powered by 230 V.
Communication range with the hub absent any obstacles between the
devices –up to 1,000 meters. Take account of this when choosing the
location for WallSwitch.
If the device has a low or unstable signal strength, use a radio signal range
extender ReX.

Installation process:
1. De-energize the cable to which WallSwitch will be connected.
2. Connect the cable of the power system of the room to the WallSwitch
terminals according to the following scheme:
3. Connect a socket to the WallSwitch using bundled connecting wires or an
electrical appliance using a cable with the sufficient cross-section. It’s
recommended to use cables with cross-section of 1.5 –2 mm2.
Do not connect more than 3 kW load to the WallSwitch. When connecting the load, strictly
observe the connection diagram since an incorrect connection may cause the device to
malfunction and/or damage the property.
In installing the WallSwitch in the socket box, lead out the antenna to the
outside and place it under the plastic frame of the socket. The more
distanced the antenna is from metal structures, the lower is the risk of
screening (and impairment) of the radio signal.
1 —recommended antenna location
In no case, do not shorten the antenna! Its length is optimal for operation within the used radio
frequency range!
During installation and operation of WallSwitch, please adhere to general
rules of electrical safety when using electrical appliances, as well as the
requirements of electrical safety regulations.

It is expressly forbidden to disassemble the device. Do not use the device with damaged power
cables.
Do not install the relay:
1. Outside
2. In metal wiring boxes and electrical panels
3. In places with temperature and humidity exceeding the permissible limits
4. Closer than 1 m from the hub
Maintenance
The device does not require maintenance.
