Scope of Delivery
- RaspBee Gateway, consisting of:
oRaspberry Pi, RaspBee Premium shield, housing
oWall power supply
oSD card (software pre-installed)
oEthernet cable
- 2 x Wireless electronic ballasts FLS-PP incl. RGB LED stripe segment (12 V Common +)
Additionally Required Components
oPower supply for FLS (12VDC, load matching connected illuminant)
oWiFi router
1
oControl unit (pc/ smartphone/ tablet) with browser
Hardware Setup –RaspBee Gateway
1
e.g. Fritz!Box ™
2Add the address of the gateway to your bookmarks for use of access.
1. Insert SD card.
2. Connect via Ethernet cable with router.
3. Establish power supply (use micro-USB
connector beside SD card slot).
4. Await the booting routine (duration approx.
one minute). Initially the LEDs on the
RaspBee shield blink green for a short time
and then shine continuously red.
Hardware Setup –Wireless Electronic Ballasts
1. Connect FLS-PP with LED stripe.
2. Connect LED Power Supply to FLS.
Initially the illuminants shine
monochromatic white. They are
automatically searching for an open
ZigBee network and will join it. After
successful connection the color
changes to green.
The combination of FLS and illuminant will be referred to as ‘light’below.
Setup Web Application
1. Open a browser on the control unit (PC, tablet, ...; needs
access to the local network).
2. Switch to Login page: http://raspbee-gw
If the page can’t be found, alternatively open the following
address (Internet connection necessary):
http://www.dresden-elektronik.de/discover. Click the
gateway-link there.2

Update FLS Firmware
The FLS has the ability to receive software updates
for service or additional supply of new functions. The
automatic search and installation of updates requires
that the respective setting is activated (in ‘Settings |
System’the checkmark at ‘Allow gateway discovery
and checking for updates via internet’is set) and the
gateway is connected to the Internet.
Just as a new firmware version has been
downloaded, it can be spread automatically by
gateway per over-the-air-update (OTAU). Thereto it is
required that the checkmark at ‘OTAU server’is set in
the menu item ‘Settings | Network’.
During the update procedure the green LED of the Shield blinks very quickly. Controlling the system is
still possible, but it can perhaps be delayed.
After successful transmission of the firmware an automatic reboot of the FLS takes place. During this
time the illuminant which is connected to the FLS is switched off. After approx. one minute the lights
are operable again with the parameters set prior to the update. Settings such as colors, brightness,
scenes etc. remain untouched from the update.
Reset FLS to Factory Settings
Resetting the FLS is not necessary during normal operation. Only if lights shall join a new network a
reset is required before; two options are possible.
If light and gateway can be moved within a range of
less than 50 cm, a ‘touchlink reset‘ can be
performed. Go to the ‘Settings | Touchlink’ menu
and click the ‘scan for devices’button once. A
progress bar indicates the process. After the scan
procedure has been completed, a list of available
devices within range gets displayed. Each light
should be identified by clicking the ‘blink’button first
before resetting it. Observe the status of each
operation at the bottom of the page. If the target light
is not listed, try scanning again.
In the second case gateway and lights are installed fixed, the distance between them might be greater
than 50 cm. In this case ‘touchlink’reset won’t work. Proceed with a power cycle sequence instead as
follows:
1. Power cycle 4x with 2 to 20 seconds on time.
2. When switching on for the fourth time: illuminant blinks for 10 seconds.
3. Wait until light stops blinking.
4. Switch on and off again 2x, after approx. two seconds the device begins to restore the factory
settings (duration approx. 60 seconds, in this time the light is off). Afterwards the light is operative
again and can be added to a network.

Update Gateway Software
To benefit from the ongoing development of the control application you can activate the automatic
detection of updates here as well: (under ‘Settings | System’set the checkmark at ‘Allow gateway
discovery and checking for updates via internet’).
The installation of an update is only run after an explicit acceptance. The update procedure may last
some minutes dependent on the Internet connection and size of the update. Reload the website via
the browser until the completion is displayed by an incremented version number in the user interface.
Expert Settings
Via the ‘General’tab of the system menu you can change the name of your gateway, you can
determine a user defined password under ‘Account’and unlock the gateway temporary for searching
by third-party apps under ‘Apps’with the button ‘unlock’.
Notes
1. Each light can be a member of up to 8 groups.
2. In the user interface any number of groups can be created with each up to 16 scenes.
3. A scene always describes the status of the complete group, i.e. changing the scene affects all
lights.
4. If a light is switched off and on again physically, its last settings are restored. If settings per user
interface have been changed meanwhile they are ineffective after switching on again.
5. Not existing lights are displayed grayed out / semi-transparent in the user interface.
6. Lights can only belong to one network but to several groups; they rejoin it automatically after
switching on again. If a light shall be assigned to a new network it must be reset to factory settings
first.
7. For optimum accessibility of your lights we recommend that the gateway is powered on
permanently. After reboot the website may have to be loaded again.
