FCC Information:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
Note: This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
Class B digital devices pursuant to Part 15 Subpart B, of the FCC rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential environment. This equipment generates, uses,
and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to
try and correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
To comply with the FCC's RF exposure limits for general population /
uncontrolled exposure, this transmitter must be installed to provide a
separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons and must not be
co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly
approved by RAB Lighting may void the user’s authority to operate
this equipment.

ADVANCED TRIGGER: Designed to use a third-party occupancy sensor
to detect occupancy without that sensor directly controlling the lights.
Controller will function as an occupancy sensor in this mode.
POWER MEASUREMENT: The Lightcloud Controller is capable of
measuring the power usage of the attached circuit.
POWER LOSS DETECTION: If mains power to the Controller is lost,
the device will detect this and alert the Lightcloud application.
EMERGENCY DEFAULT: If communication is lost, the Controller may
optionally fall back to a specific state, such as turning the attached
circuit on.

CONTROLLER: Provides switching and dimming for a single zone.
REPEATER: Extends the Lightcloud mesh network without
controlling a load.
TRIGGER: Detect when an attached circuit is open or closed. For
example, you could attach the Controller in Trigger mode to an
existing occupancy sensor to allow your Lightcloud system to
react to the sensor.
OCCUPANCY LOCAL: Use an attached sensor to control the
Controllers load.
OCCUPANCY CUSTOM: Use an attached sensor to control the
load of any Zone in the Lightcloud site.
What You Need
Lightcloud Gateway
A Lightcloud installation requires at least
one Lightcloud Gateway to manage your devices.

Use these guidelines when installing devices:
• If there is a clear line of sight between two Lightcloud
devices, they can be placed up to 1000 feet apart.
• If the two devices are separated by ordinary drywall
construction, try to keep them within 100 ft. of each other.
• Brick, concrete and steel construction may require
additional Lightcloud devices to go around the obstruction.

When installing devices, it’s important to keep track of their Device IDs,
installation locations, panel/circuit #s, dimming function, and any additional
notes. To organize this information, use the Lightcloud Installer Application
(A) or Device Table (B).
Install the LC Installer Application: LC Installer is available for iOS & Android.
Scan & Install Lightcloud Devices: Scan each device and assign to a room.
It’s recommended that each device is scanned just before or just after being
wired so no devices are missed. The more notes that are given, the easier it
is to commission the system.
Send to RAB: Once all of the devices have been added and organized,
submit the information for commissioning.
