4.Introduction
The Luxy Smart Switch is an innovative light source that will gently illuminate your home in any
of the 16 million colours that you can choose from, to fit your personal preference and give a
personal touch to any room.
It is designed in a way that it fits in the flush mounting boxes at the height of the light switch or
where you usually have electrical sockets. This means, Luxy Smart Switch can be quickly & easily
installed anywhere in the house where you already have electricity (neutral wire is mandatory
for proper operation) or where you can easily pull additional wires.
You can control Luxy Smart Switch manually, wirelessly or set it to work automatically.
If you use it as a standalone device, you can control it through 5 integrated touch-sensitive points
on the surface. With a touch you can turn on/off the Luxy light, turn on/off the additional output,
set the colour, dim the brightness, and choose between 4 lighting effects. The lighting scenes are
inspired by nature and will help you set the mood, by simulating the ocean, sunrise, rainbow, and
nature’s colour scenes.

If you are a more advanced user, you can integrate Luxy Smart Switch into the Z-Wave network
and enjoy plenty of other functionalities it offers. When connected to the gateway, Luxy Switch
becomes a smart home device, enabling you to control it remotely via smartphone or tablet and
creating more complex scenes, e.g. setting the time schedule.
One of the Luxy Smart Switch features is an additional power output for connecting other loads
as room light, ceiling fan, IR panel, etc. It can trigger or be triggered by other devices.

5.2 Measurements and reporting
Measurements and reporting are only available for relay output.
Watt
Power –Active
kWh
Energy –Active power accumulated
Energy consumption in kWh is reported in 0.1 kWh resolution.
Active power in W is reported in 1 W resolution.
NOTE: For more options check parameter nr. 40.
5.3 Overload protection
Overload protection defined by user
The user has an option with parameter 70 to set an overload safety threshold. The threshold is set to 2300
W by default. If the power exceeds it for 5 seconds the Luxy Smart Switch relay will turn off, and a
“Overload detected” notification will be sent. Controlled device can be turned back on by capacitive
antenna/s or sending a control frame.
Overload safety protection
Overload safety protection is triggered if the load exceeds 10 A (2400 W) for more than 5 seconds. If the
overload safety protection is triggered, the device will shut down the relay and start flashing red (1 sec
ON, 0.5 sec OFF) and sends an overload notification message. Device is not responsive to touch
commands or Z-wave commands. Controlled device can be turned back on with power cycle (mains cut
off).
5.4 Lock touch functions for enabling output ON/OFF
This option enables/disables ONLY the touch functionality for closing/opening the relay output meant for
switching ON/OFF the connected light or other connected load. While enabled, other touch functionalities
are temporary unavailable. The option can be accessed:
Locally:
•You can choose any kind of light (also no light) except FULL white. Press and hold button 3 –right
in between 6 to 9 seconds. Release the button.
•To revert the option, repeat the above procedure.
Remotely:
•Check the Parameter no. 60 –Lock touch for relay only. Set value to 1 (enable) or 0 (disable) the
option.
NOTE: Your gateway needs to support advanced configuration and parameter input to
use this feature.

5.5 Turning off alarms
When an alarm occurs (NOTIFICATION_REPORT is sent) Luxy Smart Switch starts blinking red, so
you are notified.
As soon as the reason that caused the alarm is noted by the user, the alarm can be turned OFF:
Locally:
•Touch any out of 4 integrated touch-sensitive points (excluding middle point) on the
Luxy Smart Switch surface.
Remotely:
•Reset the alarm via gateway’s user interface.
For more options, see Parameter no. 3 –Turning off alarming.

6.Use Cases
To get you an idea for your next smart home project, we have prepared a few real-life examples,
where you can use Luxy Smart Switch. There are countless of options using Luxy as a standalone
ambient light or in combination with a smart home system. In a smart home system Luxy can
trigger or can be trigged by other Z-Wave devices.
6.1.Usage examples for Luxy Smart Switch
Example where Luxy Smart Switch is used as a light source for gentle and personalized
illumination of your home in 16 million colours.
As a visual alarm, for a gentle wake-
up, with colours (example yellow)
simulating the sunrise.
Do you often forget to turn off a night
light or main room light when you fall
asleep?
The Luxy Smart Switch can
automatically turn ON or OFF after a
set time (when you or your kids fall
asleep). For example, the Luxy Smart
Switch will automatically turn OFF if it
has been ON for 30 minutes. This
function is independent of other
scenes and gateway (hub) commands.

EN.

6.2.Usage examples when Luxy Smart Switch is connected to a wireless
device/sensor
Do you want to control other devices in
your Z-Wave network with the Luxy Smart
Switch?
Connect the Luxy Smart Switch with other
devices in your network and automatically
trigger another Z-Wave device. And have
other Z-Wave devices trigger your Qubino
Luxy Smart Switch.
Connected to a wireless doorbell, Luxy can
act as your visual doorbell. It illuminates in
the colour you choose. This way you can
completely personalize the way you want to
be notified when getting visitors at the front
door.
Do not bother your eyes during nighttime
with the too bright, main light in the
corridor. Luxy can gently illuminate your
corridor when the motion sensor detects
movement. You can personalize the color
and intensity of the Luxy light and set the
period for how long it stays ON.

EN.
14
Connected to a wireless motion sensor, Luxy
can start blinking in red colour, so you are
notified if there are any intruders around
your house.
Connected to a wireless flood detector, Luxy
can start blinking, when the water leakage is
detected.

EN.
15
6.3.Usage examples when Luxy Smart Switch is connected to a wired device
You can connect up to 10 A to its relay output.
This means that even a water heater or…
…ceiling fan, or…

EN.
16
IR panel can be directly powered with the Luxy
Smart Switch.
At the same time, you can use gateway
associations and scenes to signalize (desired
color) with Luxy light that the room is warm
enough as there is currently no consumption
on the IR panel.
NOTE: Use cases demonstrate possible ways to use Luxy Smart Switch. Other, not mentioned use
cases are still possible. Always bear in mind limitations of the Z-Wave gateways and the Z-Wave
devices regarding associations, scenes, security types, etc.

•Luxy Smart Switch comes with the pre-programmed nature inspired lighting effects:
Ocean, Nature, Sunrise, Rainbow which will ensure you a relaxing lighting experience to
help you start the day with more energy or to relax you after a tough day.
•As most walls are painted in bright colour, the natural glass frame makes it almost
invisible on the wall, when turned OFF. When turned ON, it disperses the coloured
lighting effects beautifully. The combination of RGB LEDs and a glass frame makes a
wonderful effect when it shines.
