Instructions
Welcome to your ThirdReality smart home!
RealitySwitch Plus can be used with one of the
following configurations:
A. A RealityAdapter.
B. An Amazon Echo Plus.
C. An Amazon Echo series or Google Home
with a 3rd compatible Wi-Fi to ZigBee Hub.
1. Configuration
A. You can talk with any echo devices and
control the switch through a RealityAdapter.
1) Download the ThirdReality App on your
smartphone or tablet, register or log into the
App.

2) Place two AA batteries inside your
RealitySwitch Plus. You will see a fast
blinking blue LED, indicating that your
switch is in pairing mode.
3) To add your device (RealitySwitch Plus),
please tap “+ New device” and follow the
instructions in the app. You will need to
have a RealityAdapter pairs with App
before this step.
If the pairing is successful, the blue LED will be off.
If the pairing fails, put your device closer to
RealityAdapter and factory reset the switch, then try
again.(The recommended distance:1m~3m)
4) At this point, you will see the device in the
app. Click the device icon and verify that your
device responds.

B. If you have the Echo Plus, you can connect it
directly with the RealitySwitch using the steps
below.
Install the Amazon Alexa app on your smart
phone or tablet. Register and log in to the app,
and follow the tips shown to set up your Echo
Plus.
C. If you have a 3rd compatible Wi-Fi to ZigBee
Hub(e.g.:Wink) , you can connect it.
Please make sure your switch is in pairing mode
and refer to the user guide of the corresponding
Hub.
Note: If none operation after installing the
batteries for 3 minutes, the Switch Plus will
become a normal switch with button function.
To solve it, you can re-pair the RealitySwitch
Plus via factory reset or just remove the batteries
over 10 minutes, and then install the batteries
again.
Note: Please move
your RealitySwitch
Plus close to the
Echo Plus.

2. Installation
Two optional backplanes are provided in the
product package. Choose one based on your
existing toggle or rocker panels.
1) Tighten the backplane with the screws
included in the package, paying attention to
“up” direction.
2) Check and adjust the switch status with your
switch panel to avoid part overlaps.

Please remove the protection films on the
surface of the switch body.
3) Place the switch body onto your backplane,
making sure to match the “up” direction (you
can remove it first from the down direction).
4) In some special cases, it is necessary to insert
spacers and/or gaskets in the backplane. You
may adjust the screws in the backplane to
ensure proper contact.
Note: The spacers are only used by the Roc
ker Backplane.

device with the Echo plus or Hub.

Sometimes you need to reset the device and the
Echo Plus to pair again clearly with steps below:
Reset the Echo Plus for 15 seconds until its
orange LED lights up.
Reset the device for 30 seconds until the
LED changes from on to fast blinking.
Reconnect/re-pair the device with the app.
5. Tips to enlarge wireless working distance
You can try to optimize the mesh net by keeping
any two of the device, Echo Plus or router closer
to get a better connectivity performance.
6. Battery with low voltage
If the LED double blinks indicating the batteries
low status, please replace the batteries.

7. Suggestions for pairing with Wink HUB
To avoid interference, it is recommended to
follow the user manual of Wink HUB during the
setup process.
8. How to adapt the height between the
switch body and your existing panel.
In some special cases, you may need to add
spacers and/or gaskets to increase the distance
