All About Secured Networks
A secured network ensures that only those with permission
can access the lighting system. The lighting system functions
whether it is on a secured network or not, so it is entirely up to
the end user whether they want to have their lighting system
on a secured network or not.
Once a xture has been added to a secured network, that
xture is now locked into that secured network and will not
be able to be controlled from the default home network. If a
secured network is deleted while a xture is still attached to
that network, the user will not be able to access that xture
from the default home network. It is very important to remove
all xtures from a secured network before deleting a secured
network. The app allows up to 10 secured networks at a time.
How to Create a Secured Network
Step 1: Click on the settings
button in the top left corner of the
dashboard. (Shown circled in red)
Step 2: Click on “Default Home.”
This will bring up your list of avail-
able networks.
Step 3: Click on the “+” sign and
then select “Add new home” to
create a new network. Name your
network.
Step 4: Click and drag left on
your new network until you see a
green box and a yellow box. Click
on the green “Add” box.
Step 5: The bt app will begin
searching for devices and adding
them to the network.
Please note, xtures that were
added to an existing secured
network will not be discoverable
by a new secured network.
Step 6: When the bt app has
nished ndind all the avail-
able devices, select “No” when
prompted. If there are more
devices to be found, select “Yes.”

PLEASE NOTE: If you plan to create a secured network, and you also plan to name
your xtures and create groups, you should create the secured network rst. When
you put xtures into a secured network, they will lose any naming or grouping that
was created prior to being placed into the secured network.

8
How to Share a Secured Network
PLEASE NOTE: Sharing a secured network with another user allows them to access
and control the xtures, however, it does not transfer any naming or grouping.
Step 1: With the device that originally set up the secured network, click
and drag left on your the network you want to share until you see a
green box and a yellow box. Click on the yellow “Share” box.
Step 2: Using the device that you want to share the secured network
with, click on the “+” sign and then select “Scan QR code add home”
to scan the QR code from the original device. Once the QR code is
scanned, the secured network is shared.
