1. DESCRIPTION
The wireless Easywave receiver with 230 V two-way switching contact (one-channel) is
suitable for flush mounting and may only be used as a wireless Easywave control in combination with small
consumers.
The product is part of the Easywave radio frequency system, a wireless installation technique between the
push buttons (control points) and the consumers to be operated. The Easywave system is a modular system
with transmitters and receivers. A wall transmitter has the form of a push button with two, four or eight
action buttons and can be mounted on a wall. A hand-held transmitter looks like a traditional remote control
unit. One transmitter can operate an unlimited number of receivers simultaneously, while one receiver can
be controlled by a maximum of 32 transmitters.
The remote control or wireless control operates on the basis of signal transmission via radio waves at
a frequency of 868.3 MHz. This frequency only allows products that emit signals no more than 1% per
hour or 36 seconds, which reduces the risk of interrupted signals to an absolute minimum. Therefore,
the wireless Easywave system is excellently suited to specific applications, such as renovations of listed
interiors, extensions of existing electrical installations (where drilling or channelling is not possible), for use
in offices with moveable partitions or walls or in installations where complicated wiring must be avoided.
2. INSTALLATION
2.1. Mounting
Tip: Always take the local conditions and surroundings (Fig. 1) into account when you mount the receiver.
Tip: Ensure that the wireless signal transmission between receiver and transmitter is not obstructed. Place
the receiver as close to the transmitter as possible.
Tip: The presence of metal or moisture in the walls can negatively influence the range of the wireless
signals (Fig. 1). Therefore, never place the receiver:
• in a metal electrical cabinet, housing or netting.
• in the vicinity of large metal objects.
• on or close to the ground.
The receiver is suitable for mounting in almost all standard flush-mounting boxes.
2.2. Connection
Danger: Disconnect all power before installing the receiver. Do not connect the unit to the power supply
until installation has been completed.
1. Switch off the power.
2. Connect the cable for the power supply and for the consumer according to the connection diagram
(Fig. 2).
3. Mount the receiver in the flush-mounting box.
4. Switch on the power.
5. Program the wireless Easywave push button and/or the Easywave hand-held transmitter to the
receiver (see section 4.2.).
6. Finish installation with a blank plate or with a finishing set for the wireless Easywave push button.

3. OPERATION AND USE

3.1. Allowable loads
The following table provides an overview of the maximum allowable load per type of lighting.
Type of lighting
Ohmic load (resistive load)
incandescent lamps, 230 V halogen lamps ...
Inductive load

transformers
3.2. General operation
With this wireless Easywave receiver, small consumers can be switched in one of the following three
working modes:
• two modes for the on-off function and
• pulse mode.
You can operate the receiver using either push buttons or hand-held transmitters.

3.3. Detection range between Easywave hand-held transmitters and wireless Easywave receivers
The operation of devices that are controlled via a remote control unit, such as TVs or video and audio
devices, is not disrupted by an Easywave hand-held transmitter. You are not required to optically aim the
hand-held transmitter at the wireless Easywave receiver. The indoor detection range is approximately
30 m. In open spaces, a detection range of 100 m is attained. The range of the hand-held transmitter
depends on the materials used in the residence. You can use a diagnostic device (05-370) to determine the
wireless signal strength in a given area. The device recognizes all 868.3 MHz signals. Based on nine status
LEDs, the reception quality of the transmission signal or the strength of the interference signals present is
displayed. This way you can determine whether the range of the hand-held transmitter is sufficient. Figure
1 shows the loss of quality of the transmission range depending on the materials used. You can use a
wireless Easywave repeater (05-535) in installations with insufficient range.
4. PROGRAMMING
When briefly pressing the programming or action button, do not press longer than a maximum of 1.6
seconds.
In the event of a long-term power failure, the programming is retained.
Attention: If you do not press a programming or an action button within 20 seconds while in programming
mode, this mode is deactivated. The settings are not saved.
4.1. Programming and operating modes
The receiver has three different programming modes for the three different operating modes of the wireless
Easywave control. Each programming mode is indicated by a specific LED signal.
Programming mode Operating mode
1 two-button control: on/off
2 single-button control: on/off
press and hold the action button on the
push button or hand-held transmitter
longer than 1.6 seconds: off
3 pulse mode: relay switches as long as
you press and hold the action button
on the push button or hand-held
transmitter
Briefly press the programming button (P) on the front of the receiver (Fig. 3) to go from the operating
mode to programming mode 1 and to run through the various programming modes: operating mode >
programming mode 1 > programming mode 2 > programming mode 3 > operating mode > ...
4.2. Programming the wireless Easywave push button or Easywave hand-held transmitter
When you program a wireless Easywave push button or Easywave hand-held transmitter, the selected
operating mode (see section 4.1.) is assigned to the action button(s) on the push button or hand-held
transmitter.
Each action button transmits an Easywave code. With two-button control, you only need to program one
action button. The code is automatically assigned to the second action button.
Step Action
1. Briefly press the programming button (P) on the
front of the receiver (Fig. 2).
2. If desired, select another programming mode
by briefly pressing the programming button
repeatedly.
3. Press and hold an action button on the push
button or hand-held transmitter.
4. Release the action button on the push button or
hand-held transmitter.
5. If necessary, repeat steps 1 and 2 with the
other push buttons or hand-held transmitters.
Note: You can program the receiver with a
maximum of 32 codes.
6. Return to the operating mode by briefly
pressing the programming button until you exit
the programming mode (see section 4.1.).
4.3. Erasing action buttons on the wireless Easywave push button or Easywave hand-held
transmitter
In the erase mode, you can erase any programmed action button on a push button and/or hand-held
transmitter separately from the receiver memory. With a two-button control, you need only erase one
action button (A or C); the code of the second action button (B or D) is then automatically erased.

LED signal
Result
Programming mode 1 is activated.
The status LED flashes according to the rhythm
that corresponds to this mode (see
section 4.1.).
Depending on the programming mode selected,
the status LED will flash according to a specific
rhythm (see section 4.1.).
As soon as the selected programming mode
has been saved, the status LED will be
illuminated for four seconds, after which time it
will continue to flash.
