Which switch works with which receiver?
Every Kinetic Switch wireless switch, no matter what series and type (whether rocker switch or remote control), can be paired with any receiver.
How many switches can be trained on a receiver?
An jeden 1-Kanal-Empfänger können 10 Schalter bzw. Tasten angelernt werden. Der 2-Kanal-Empfänger speichert 10 Schalter/Tasteninformationen pro Kanal.
How far is the range?
Indoors the range is approx. 30 meters. However, the design of the walls is relevant. However, switching through 1-2 walls is problem-free. Outside, the range is approx. 80 meters, depending on obstacles. However, the ranges can be affected by local conditions!
Can I extend the range?
Yes, the range can be extended by using another receiver as a "bridge". This bridge can then be coupled with up to 10 switches/buttons and forwards the signal to the previously coupled receiver.
What needs to be taken into account when dimming and what are the requirements?
A receiver with a dimming function is absolutely necessary for dimming. A load of at least 7W is recommended per receiver to enable problem-free dimming. When selecting LED lamps, please note that our dimmers work on a TRIAC / PWM basis.
Do the C3 series receivers fit in a flush-mounted box?
No, we offer you the Mini series receivers for this. These fit easily into a flush-mounted box, small lamp housing, etc.
Are alternating and cross-connections possible?
Yes, that's not a problem. The receiver processes every incoming signal, regardless of which switch the signal comes from.
Is integration into a WiFi network possible?
Yes, there are smart receivers for this that, in addition to the normal radio control, can be integrated into a WiFi network and can be controlled via APP as well as with any common voice control.
Are there switches for outdoor / wet rooms?
Yes, the kinetic switch wireless switches are IP67 protected and can therefore be used in bathrooms or other wet rooms. The S series switch is also the right choice for outdoor use.
Can I install multiple receivers/switches in one room?
Yes! Each switch is individually addressed on the receiver through teaching. This prevents interference or malfunction.
Is cross, alternating or series switching possible with the kinetic switch radio switch?
Yes! Any type of circuit is possible. Up to 10 switches/buttons can be connected to each receiver. Each switching command changes the actual state of the receiver. With a conventional switching system, cross, alternating and series switching is an issue; with kinetic switches, all variants are possible without any problems.
I am an electrician, property developer or dealer and am interested in kinetic switch for my next project.
