Remarks
→ Use a torchlight with a well-defined light cone. Please refer to the
design-in guide of the product for more information.
→ Typically, illuminance of the sensor should increase by ≥5000lx suddenly.
→ It is advised to wait for 2 beeps, after which a light will show up in “Added” tab.
→ In case a light is not added when torched, please re-try, or use the list-based commissioning.
→ In case a light can't be torched it might be that it was not in the scan list because of a too big
range, e.g., in case of a long corridor. A re-scan of the lights with closer range is required to
add this light to the list.
→ It is strongly recommended not to change the flashlight sensitivity in the app settings section.
