1. DESCRIPTION

The Nous C1 ZigBee Smart Wireless Switch (4 Buttons) is a versatile four-button switch for wireless smart home control. It allows you to easily control devices and trigger smart home scenarios via the Zigbee 3.0 protocol. The model features four independent buttons, each of which can trigger individual actions or scenarios. Designed to control lighting groups and dimmers, trigger sequential smart home scenarios, and create quick commands for blinds, climate control, outlets, and other devices. An alternative to traditional switches that doesn’t require wall mounting; it can be installed on any surface thanks to a self-adhesive sticker.

Each of the 4 buttons can be configured for flexible control:

• single press – classic on/off or launch of the first scenario;
• double-press – activation of an alternative scene;
• long press – activation of an additional function or scene.

This allows for up to 12 actions/scenes.

IMPORTANT: You will need a Nous E1, Nous E7, Nous E15 or other Tuya compatible ZigBee gateway/hub to connect.

Press and hold button "3" for 10 seconds until the LED indicator flashes. The switch will then enter Quick Configure Mode (required for connecting to a gateway/hub).
