Step by step operating instructions for the BULB RECEIVER
A Quick Note before You Set Up the BULB RECEIVERs:
The BULB RECEIVER can be used indoors and outdoors.
WARNING: To keep rain out when used outdoors, mount the BULB RECEIVER in the orientation shown in Figure 10.
Unlike LAMP and APPLIANCE RECEIVERS the BULB RECEIVER does not have any code wheels. You set its code up
from the MESSENGER HUB and it then remembers this code, even after a power outage. For ease of programming, initially
place the BULB RECEIVER in a lamp that can be set up in the same wall outlet that the MESSENGER HUB is plugged into.
After programming you can move it to its final location (in an outdoor light fixture for example).
Step 1:
Make sure the lamp is turned to the "ON" position and then it must be unplugged! Unscrew your existing light bulb
from its socket and screw the BULB RECEIVER into the light socket as shown in Figure 11.
RECEIVER raises the bulb approximately two inches. If bulb touches lamp shade or lamp frame, you must purchase a
shorter bulb to use this lamp. Screw an incandescent light bulbs only (up to 150W) into the BULB RECEIVER. DO NOT
use with fluorescent lamps.
Step 2:
Set the unit code on the INDOOR REMOTE to the color and number that you want to use to control the BULB RECEIVER
in its final location. (Example : Red 1)
Step 3:
Plug the lamp into the same wall outlet as the MESSENGER HUB or you can move the MESSENGER HUB and
plug into the same wall outlet as the lamp. (The Messenger Hub will not lose its memory and it can be moved
back later.) See Figure 12.
Within 30 seconds of plugging lamp in, press and hold for 5 seconds the on button on the INDOOR REMOTE that
corresponds to the UNIT CODE that you have selected. The light should turn on.
NOTE: If the light does not turn on in 5 seconds, unplug the lamp and then re-plug and repeat step 3. If lamp still
does not turn on, move the MESSENGER HUB and lamp to a different outlet in a different room and repeat step 3.
Step 4:
If you wish to use the BULB RECEIVER in a different lamp, unplug lamp, remove bulb and BULB RECEIVER.
Place BULB RECEIVER in new lamp. BULB RECEIVER will remember unit code setting that was established in
step 3.
BULB RECEIVER NOTES:
• You must leave the lamp switch or wall switch on at all times otherwise the BULB RECEIVER will have no AC power and you won't be
able to control it remotely.
• The BULB RECEIVER does not have local control (you cannot turn the light on from its regular switch).
• The BULB RECEIVER does not respond to bright and dim commands. It does respond to ALL lights On and ALL units Off commands.
NOTE: When using the BULB RECEIVER, you cannot control the lamp by the lamps switch. Turning the lamp switch off will cause the BULB
RECEIVER to go into program mode and will need to be reprogrammed. See page 7.
