Before you install
Things to consider:
• If light(s) are controlled from more than one location,
you will need a DD00R remote. See the DD00R
installation instructions for wiring instructions.
• Zigbee is a mesh network. It must be installed within
30 ft of hub or another Zigbee 3.0 compliant device.
NOTE: Communication through
exterior surfaces will likely
reduce transmission distances.
