Section 1: Very Important Pre-Installation Notes
•Your home should be no more than 2500 square feet and have only one breaker panel. A phase
coupler is required in some home installations. See Section 5 for more information.
•Not intended for use in multi-dwelling (condo, apartment, duplex) units.
Section 2: Installation of Lamp Module
Locate a lamp you would like to turn ON/OFF. Plug the lamp module into a wall outlet, then plug-in a lamp into
the socket on the bottom of the lamp module. Turn the lamp ON using the lamp’s ON/OFF switch. Leave the
lamp on (do not turn off). You're done with the installation process! Please refer to the User Guide the lamp
module came packaged in or see http://simply-automated.com/documents/452-0112-0201_RevC_UML-E-
W_UserGuide_090512.pdf
Test the lamp module using a 4-button scene controller. Button 3 of the Tabletop Controller with 4-buttons (and
Deluxe Dimmer with 4-buttons) is programmed from the factory to turn on each device (lamp module or dimmer)
at a 100% dim level. Button 4 is programmed from the factory to turn off each device (lamp module or dimmer).
•Button 3 turns on/off the lamp module: Press (tap) button 3 one time to turn on the lamp module, press
(quickly tap) two times to turn off the lamp module.
•Button 4 turns off the lamp module: Press (tap) button 4 one time to turn off the lamp module.
Helpful Hint: If tapping a button does not turn on a lamp, the lamp's switch may be in the off position. Go to the
lamp and turn on using the lamp's on/off switch. Tapping should be done quickly ensuring contact is made from
the button to the base sensor.
The lamp can still be turned ON/OFF manually. For manual operation of either lamp, simply turn the lamp ON,
OFF and ON again using the lamp’s ON/OFF switch.

Important Note: Each lamp module has a unique ID number. You can find the ID number on the back of
each lamp module. Model UML7 has ID #7 and model UML8 has ID #8. This is important information to
note as it relates to operation with the Scheduler-Timer accessory (sold separately).
Section 3: Editing Buttons (Scenes) on Tabletop Controller (or Deluxe Dimmer) with 4-
Buttons
Each button on the Tabletop Controller (or Deluxe Dimmer) with 4-Buttons controls a SCENE that can easily be
edited from the factory pre-sets. You can change the dimming level or number of lamp modules controlled by
each button to create your own custom scenes!
Section 3.a. Adding a Lamp Module
Button 1. To add a lamp module to button 1:
•Go to the lamp connected to the lamp module. Turn on using the
lamps on/off switch.
•Go to the lamp module, press (quickly tap) the program switch
(see illustration) 5 times using a non-metallic toothpick to place in
the program mode. The indicator will continuously blink green
to confirm the lamp module is in the program mode.
CAUTION: When programming the lamp module, do not
insert any metal object (paperclip) into the module while it
is connected to power.
•
Go to the Tabletop Controller (or Deluxe Dimmer), press (quickly tap) button 1 seven times. You have
created a new scene!
Helpful Hint: If tapping button 1 does not turn on the lamp module, the lamp's switch may be in the off position.
Go to the lamp and turn on using the lamp's on/off switch, repeat the three steps outlined above. Tapping
should be done quickly ensuring contact is made from the button to the base sensor.
Button 2. To add a lamp module to button 2, follow the instructions outlined above in Section 3.a. noting you
will need to press (tap) button 2 seven times to program the new scene.
Helpful Hint: After tapping five times, lamp module will stay in the program mode for approximately 5 minutes.
You can always confirm if the lamp module is in the program mode by checking for a blinking green light next to
the program switch. If the indicator is not flashing green, to place in the program mode, quickly tap the program
switch five times. To exit the program mode, quickly tap the program switch two times.
Helpful Hint: The Tabletop Controller can inadvertently be placed in the program mode by tapping button 1 five
times. The indicator above button 1 will continuously blink green for five minutes. To exit the programming
mode, quickly tap the lamp module’s program switch two times.

Important Note: If you would like to program a different dimming level for more than one lamp module,
repeat the procedure outlined above for one lamp module at a time. Go to the Tabletop controller (or
Deluxe Dimmer), press and hold the button to the desired dimming level for lamp module #1. Go to
lamp module #1, place in the program mode, go back to the Tabletop Controller (or Deluxe Dimmer) and
press (quickly tap) the button you want to edit seven times. Follow the same procedure for all other
lamp modules. Note: although all lamp modules will dim up/down, a change will only occur when the
lamp module is placed in the program mode.
Editing buttons 3 or 4. Button 3 is programmed to turn on both lamp modules at 100%. Button 4 is
programmed to turn off both lamp modules. We recommend not editing these buttons since all devices (up to
ten dimmers/lamp modules) in the Pre-Configured SimplySmart
TM
Series have the same settings -- one tap of
button 3 turns all devices on, one tap of button 4 turns all devices off. This pre-programming is a very powerful
and convenient feature using both the Tabletop Controller with 4-buttons and Deluxe Dimmer with 4-buttons.
Example include entering a home (button 3 for ALL ON), leaving a home (button 4 for ALL OFF), bedside for
security and nighttime convenience (button 3 for ALL ON) or (button 4 for ALL OFF).
Important Note: Buttons 1 and 2 operate independently for the Tabletop Controller and Deluxe Dimmer
allowing one touch button control up to 4 unique custom scenes. Create one scene for button 1 of the
Tabletop Controller and a second scene for button 1 of the Deluxe Dimmer. Make a third scene for
button 2 of the Tabletop Controller and a fourth scene for button 2 of the Deluxe Dimmer.

Phase Coupler: Your home should be no more than 2500 square feet and have only one breaker panel. A
phase coupler is required in some home installations. If you have tested the rockers for each dimmer, they
work, but the buttons do not turn on all three dimmers, the circuits in your home may be out of phase. All
homes have a 220V feed to the main panel box, where the 220V is separated into 110V in two phases, an A
and B. You will need to install a phase coupler, see http://simply-automated.com/products/sa_zpc.htm for
options.
