Wireless Switches
Prepare for Installation
To ensure optimal function, consider the installation environment and the
following guidelines:
•
For indoor use only. Operating temperature -25°C to 65°C
(-13°F to 149°F), 5%–92% relative humidity (non-condensing).
•
High-density construction materials and large metal appliances or
fixtures in the space may disrupt wireless transmissions.
•
Install the switch within range of linked receivers or controllers,
24m (80ft). Consider adding a repeater to extend reception range.
•
Avoid mounting transmitters and receivers on the same wall.
Installation
Use hand tools when installing. Over-torquing with a power tool can
damage the switch.
Models that are surface-mounted can be installed on any clean surface
using double-sided tape or Velcro®. Mounting holes are also provided for
more secure mounting, if required.
Note: To adapt the mounting method, order certified barrier
plates, which are sold separately (part numbers: 8188K1001 for
single-gang and 8188K1002 for dual-gang). Multi-gang surface
mounting plates are also sold separately.
Orient the ON side of the switch paddle at the top. The decorator style
switches have an UP arrow and an “I” indicating ON and an “O”
indicating OFF. The handheld switches have a recessed area that indicates
the ON side of the paddle.

Paddle Switch (PTM365)
The PTM365 model includes a barrier
plate designed to mount the switch
on an electrical wall box.
1. Install the barrier plate and the
switch on the box using the
provided #6-32 screws through
the two oval mounting holes.
2. Install the provided decorator-
style faceplate over the switch.
3. Test the rocker action. An
audible click confirms the paddle
movement down and then back
to the neutral position.

Wave Switch (ETRS)
The ETRS model includes clear, double-sided tape to mount the mobile
switch to glass when it is not in use. The switch also can be surface-
mounted securely to a wall.
1. Pull to remove the front cover and access the two mounting hole
targets on the back plate.
2. Mount the back plate to a wall with screws and wall anchors (not
provided) and replace the front cover.
Handheld Switch (ETRH)
Twist-off
covers
The ETRH model is designed to be portable,
but it also can be surface-mounted to a wall
using the two keyholes on the back.
1. Remove the covers to expose the
mounting keyholes. Use the two holes
for leverage to turn 90 degrees.
2. Install screws and wall anchors (not
provided) aligned to 6 cm (2.4 in) on
center to hang the switch.
Keycard Switch (PTM265KCA)
The PTM265KCA model has a removable
faceplate and rear plate for surface-
mounting to a wall. The switch is activated
by a 85.60x53.98 mm (3.37x2.125 in) card that is 0.76 mm (0.03 in)
thick, as specified by ISO/IEC7810 ID-1.
1. Remove the faceplate screws and assembly that includes the front
cover and keycard slot.
2. Use the four mounting holes in the rear mounting plate to attach the
switch to a wall surface with screws and wall anchors (not provided).
Note: The keycard switch can be mounted to an electrical wall box
using a barrier partition accessory, which is sold separately.
3. Reattach the faceplate assembly. Do not over-tighten the screws.
4. Test the card action. An audible click confirms the switch activation
with each insert and removal.

Link to a Controller
The compatible target controller must be installed, powered, and within
range of the PTMETR.
Note: The linking process can be used both to link a device to a
controller and to unlink a linked device from a controller.
1. Press the [Learn] button on the controller to activate Link mode. If
necessary, refer to the controller product documentation.
2. Do one of the following:
•
For wall and handheld switches: triple-click ON quickly.
•
For keycard switches: activate the switch with a keycard three times
quickly.
3. Deactivate Link mode on the controller before attempting to link to
any other controllers.
Note: For dual paddle models, each paddle can be linked to a
different controller for multiple control from one wall switch.
