Pierre’s Dimmer Light Module is a compact device designed to fit behind traditional light switches, turning them into smart, dimmable switches. Like its standard counterpart, it operates via the Zigbee protocol and offers a seamless way to add smart functionality without changing the switch’s appearance. Key features include:
1. Compact Design:
• This small-sized module fits behind standard light switches, allowing for easy installation in existing switch boxes, perfect for upgrading to smart, dimmable lighting without changing the appearance of the switch.
2. Zigbee Connectivity:
• Utilizes the Zigbee protocol, offering low-energy, reliable wireless communication with other devices in the Pierre ecosystem and beyond.
3. Dimming Control:
• Provides precise dimming functionality, enabling users to adjust brightness levels of connected lights through the Pierre app or voice commands, creating the perfect ambiance in any room.
4. Smart Control:
• Allows users to turn lights on/off and control brightness remotely via the Pierre app, transforming traditional switches into smart dimmable switches.
5. Automation & Scheduling:
• Supports advanced automations and scheduling, enabling lights to automatically adjust their brightness based on time, occupancy, or environmental factors like natural light levels.
6. Energy Efficiency:
• Helps reduce energy consumption by allowing lights to dim or turn off when not needed, all while offering precise control over lighting intensity.
7. Wire Options:
• Available in versions that work with or without a neutral wire, making it suitable for both new installations and retrofit projects, depending on the existing electrical wiring.
The Pierre Dimmer Light Module is an excellent solution for anyone looking to add smart, dimmable lighting controls to their home or office, combining convenience, flexibility, and energy efficiency
What should I do if I can’t configure the dimmer module?
Please check whether the device is powered on. Please check whether the device is powered on. Make sure the PIERRE Display is available. Make sure the wiring is correct.
What device can be connected to this PIERRE dimmer module?
It can be connected to devices such as triac led light, incandescent lamp or halogen lamp.
What happens if the WIFI goes off?
You can still control the device connected to the module with your traditional switch and with PIERRE displays.
How do I reset the Dimmer Module?
1. Switch the button for 10 times, and wait for about 10s until the indicator light of the module flashes quickly for pairing.
2. Press the reset key for about 10s until the indicator light of the module flashes quickly for pairing.
What happens if there is a power outage?
If the power goes out, smart devices will retain their last state and resume functionality when power is restored. For critical devices, battery backups can be used to maintain operation during an outage.
What size box is required for the module?
Please refer to the product specifications for the exact dimensions of the module and the compatible box.
What’s the difference between modules with and without a neutral wire?
Modules with a neutral wire also act as Zigbee signal repeaters, strengthening the network. Older buildings without a neutral wire use the no-neutral option.
Can any switch or button be used with the module?
Yes, any standard switch or button can be used with the module, whether it’s a push-button or toggle switch.
Does the module support multi-way switching?
Yes, the module supports multi-way (cross and alternating) switching. Wiring diagrams can be found in the product manual.
Lights, switches, and other devices except for sockets will be connected in a star pattern, but where should the star point be? Room-by-room, or can everything be in the house’s distribution cabinet?
The PIERRE system uses star wiring, meaning every device to be controlled must be wired to a central location – the distribution box of the PIERRE Controllers. This box can be separated from high-voltage wiring or combined with it. In some cases, star points are created per floor, with each floor having its own PIERRE distribution box. These boxes are all connected to the internet, ensuring complete system integration and control.
How should the lighting be wired?
For lighting, each fixture to be switched separately must have its own wire. If multiple lights are on the same circuit, they can be connected and controlled by a single switch. All wires must be connected to the PIERRE distribution box. The switch wires must also be wired directly to the PIERRE distribution box.
Can the PIERRE system handle 48V magnetic, recessed LED systems and their dimming?
The PIERRE system supports several dimming methods. These include PWM, 0-10V, and phase dimming.
