Get Started
What do I need?
How do I get started?
Please refer to the following installation and
setup instructions. This will guide you, step by
step, through the installation and setup process.
To install the socket, you will need to remove and
replace the existing power socket. This is usually
straightforward, but you must ensure that there
is a suitably deep backbox and understand how
to safely turn o the electricity supply. You will
also need suitable electrical screwdrivers.

Overview
Installation
IMPORTANT: All LightwaveRF products can be legally DIY installed in your
own home; however, if in doubt, always consult a qualified electrician or
heating engineer. It is important to install this product in accordance with
the following instructions. Failure to do so may void your warranty.

Installation

Earth in
Neutral in
Screw mounting hole
IMPORTANT: If conducting an insulation resistance test, all LightwaveRF
products must be disconnected from the mains, or damage will occur.

Installation
1. IMPORTANT: Turn o the mains electrical supply.
2. Ensure that the wall (back) box has a minimum depth of 35mm.
3. Remove and disconnect the existing power socket (if applicable). It may
be useful at this point to mark or take a photograph of the existing
connections so that the correct wires can easily be transferred to the new
socket. Some existing wiring configurations can be complex so take care.
4. Gently remove the socket faceplate by inserting a screwdriver into one of
the bottom slots and lifting away from the unit as shown.

Installation
5. Connect the wiring as per the
diagram on the following page. Ensure
that the terminals are properly
tightened and that no bare wire is
visible. Be aware that existing wiring
circuits are not always correctly
coloured, and that there may be other
wired connections present in the back
box. If in doubt, always seek the advice
of a qualified electrician.
6. Screw the socket to the back box and
ensure that the screws are suciently
tight enough to support the product. Do
not over tighten as this may cause the
chassis to bend. Ensure that the plastic
spacer is correctly aligned and that no
wires are trapped between the socket
and the back box.
7. Replace the plate – a ‘click’ sound
should be heard to signify that the plate
has been correctly replaced.

Device Setup
Linking the sockets to the App / controllers
NOTE: This procedure applies to the LightwaveRF Smartphone and Web App
and all LightwaveRF controllers (e.g. Handheld Remote or Mood Controller).
LightwaveRF sockets each have 6unique memory slots which means they
can link with up to 6 LightwaveRF controllers in total. If you are using a
smartphone/tablet/PC to control the socket via the Lightwave Link, this will
always count as ONE controller and take up one memory slot even if you are
using multiple smartphones/tablets.
1. On either socket gang, press and hold
down the ‘on/o’ button until the blue and
amber LEDs flash alternately then release
them. The socket is now in linking mode.
2. Using the LightwaveRF Smartphone App,
press the ‘connect’ button (the App instructions
will guide you through this). If using another
controller press the button that you intend to
link. The blue light on the socket will flash to
confirm that the App/controller is now linked.

Device Setup
NOTE: Linking mode lasts for 12 seconds; if no signal is received from a
controller during this time then the socket will automatically exit linking
mode without linking the device.
If, when expecting a quick flashing blue LED to confirm pairing, a slow
amber flash is received instead, then the socket memory is FULL and no
further remotes may be linked with it unless one of the existing remotes is
unpaired first (see below).
1. On the socket gang that is to be
unlinked, press and hold down the ‘on/o’
button until the blue and amber LEDs
flash alternately, and then release it. That
socket is now in linking mode.
2. Using a LightwaveRF controller,
Smartphone or Web App, press the button
intended to be unlinked; the amber light
on the socket will flash to confirm that the
App/controller is now unlinked.
Unlinking controllers and clearing the socket memory
Removing a single device:

NOTE: Reliable range of remote operation is around 15 metres indoors and
up to 100m outdoors using the Lightwave Link. This figure may vary
depending upon the environment; very thick walls, bodies of water or large
metal objects may interfere with radio range.
If the distance between the transmitter and receiver is too great to achieve
reliable operation, the LightwaveRF Signal Booster may be used in
conjunction with this product to increase the range.
Clearing the memory (will remove any linked App or Controllers):
1. On the socket gang that is to be
cleared, press and hold down the
‘on/o’ button until the blue and amber
LEDs flash alternately, and then release
it. That socket is now in linking mode.
2. Press and hold down the ‘on/o’
button again until the blue and amber
LEDs flash simultaneously, then tap
(don’t hold) the ‘on/o’ button a further
time; the amber LED will flash quickly to
confirm that the memory has been
cleared.

Remote Operation
Flashing blue & amber alternately: socket in Linking Mode
Quickly flashing blue: socket successfully linked
Quickly flashing amber: socket unlinked / memory cleared
Slowly flashing amber: socket memory full / socket locked
Blue & flashing amber: socket successfully locked / unlocked
Locking the socket
• LightwaveRF sockets can be ‘locked’ so that the manual buttons will not
operate them. This can be achieved from the LightwaveRF App or using a
‘Socket Locker’ Remote. If locked on, the socket will not turn o manually: if
locked o, then the socket will not turn on manually. A locked socket is
signified by a slow flashing amber LED or simultaneously flashing blue &
amber LEDs.
• To lock/unlock the socket, press the ‘Unlock’ button on the Smartphone
App or Socket Locker. If the Socket locker is misplaced, the Sockets can be
reset by turning of mains power to the circuit for a period of 30 seconds.
Understanding flashing LED sequences on the socket

1. (Easy): Standby control
Required: Socket, Handheld Remote / Wire-free Switch
We all know that devices on ‘standby’ are still using power and that, if we
want to save energy & money, we should turn them o at the socket.
Sometimes, however, if the switches are buried deep behind the TV, this can
be awkward. Lightwave Sockets can make this easy: ‘standby’ devices (TV,
Freeview box, DVD player, Blu-Ray player etc.) can simply be plugged into
any LightwaveRF Socket, and be turned on or o using a simple remote,
Wire-free Switch or smartphone (if you add a Lightwave Link).

2. (Intermediate): Time for bed kids
Required: Socket, Socket Locker
No matter when you tell the children that it’s time to turn o the games
console and go to bed they always manage to find a way of carrying on. With
Lightwave you can make sure that when you say it’s time, it really is time. If
the gaming console or television is plugged into a LightwaveRF socket, you
can use a Socket Locker to lock them so that they cannot be turned back on.
If you have the Lightwave Link, you can also do this from your smartphone
and set the lock to activate automatically a bedtime every day!

3. (Advanced): Family Safety
Required: Sockets, Lightwave Link
Dangerous appliances in the kitchen (blender, microwave, hot plate, etc.)
might be a worry if you’re not always around to supervise the family. With the
Lightwave Link, you can control the sockets from anywhere using your
smartphone. This means that you can lock dangerous devices when you’re on
your way home from work, or even turn o something left on accidentally
(hair straighteners are a very common problem!) If the kids are up early, you
can lock everything in the kitchen automatically on a timer whilst you sleep.

Troubleshooting
Problem: The socket won’t turn on/o and the LEDs do not light up.
Solution: First, check that there is power to the socket. If so, turn o the
power and check that the wiring is correct; it is important that the live and
neutral wires are attached to the correct terminals. If these measures fail
contact technical support via www.lightwaverf.house.
Problem: The socket is powered (amber or blue LEDs on), but it will not
link to a LightwaveRF handset or controller.
Solution: Check the controller battery strength: if the battery strength is
low, it will not produce enough power to drive the RF radio signal. Tap any
‘on’ button on the controller to transmit a signal. A strong battery signal is
indicated by the LED light on the controller remaining lit for 1-2 seconds after
releasing the button. A low battery is indicated if the LED light turns o
immediately. If this happens, please replace the battery.
Problem: The socket is stuck on/o and will not operate manually.
Solution: On rare occasions, a high powered inductive load such as a drill or
high powered vacuum cleaner can cause a socket to become frozen in its
current state (hence it is not recommended to use them without a surge
protector). If this happens, turn o the power to the socket for 30 seconds
and then switch the power back on. This will reset the software and resolve
the issue in the majority of cases. If this measure fails, please contact
technical support via www.lightwaverf.house.

Troubleshooting
Problem: The socket will not consistently operate remotely.
Solution: The controller/Lightwave Link may be encountering interference
or may be at the edge of its reliable range of operation. First, ensure that
there are no large pieces of metal or bodies of water in the path of the
transmission. If the problem persists, try moving the controller/Link closer to
the socket, or consider using a LightwaveRF Signal Booster to extend the
range by relaying the signal between controller and socket.
Problem: The socket wont turn on/o and displays a flashing amber light
/ flashing amber & blue lights.
Solution: The socket is locked. This may have been done using a Socket
Locker or from the LightwaveRF App. If it is locked on, then the socket will
not turn o manually. If it is locked o, the socket will not turn on manually.
To unlock the socket, press the unlock button on the Socket Locker or
smartphone App. If this is not possible, the sockets can be reset by turning
of mains power to the circuit for a period of 30 seconds.

FAQs
Q. Does the socket work manually as a standalone unit?
A. Yes the socket will operate like any standard wall socket.
Q. Does the socket have a ‘standby’ power comsumption?
A. The socket has a standby power consumption of approx. 0.5W. This is
because the in-built radio receiver requires power in order to receive
commands. This rate is well within government energy guidelines.
Q. How do I know that the socket will fit?
A. A LightwaveRF Socket has the same height and width as a standard
socket - it will fit all back boxes (standard socket housing) over 35mm deep.
Q. Is it legal for me to install a LightwaveRF Socket myself?
A. Yes. It is fully legal to install LightwaveRF products in your own home.
Q. Is it possible to overload the socket?
A. 13A max. loading (3000W) applies as with other standard power sockets.
Q. How many devices can I have on the LightwaveRF system?
A. Each device has 6 memory slots for up 6 controllers. Note: The Lightwave
Link allows a number of dierent smartphones to control the socket
independently, however it only uses one memory slot.
