| The product shown here
is called Radio RA from Lutron Electronics. The system
is built around a master controller, special light switches
and plug in lamp modules. The controller sends wireless
radio signals that automatically turn on lights and lamps
anywhere in the house, or turn them off with a push of
a single button. |
First, turn off the circuit breaker
for any areas of the house in which you will be working.
Then, remove the existing lighting switches and disconnect
the wires. |
Replace each of the standard switches
with an electronic dimmer, capable of receiving and sending
the wireless radio signals . |
| |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| Reconnect the wires to the electronic
dimmer. |
Screw on the faceplates for the
dimmers. |
Each wall outlet into which a
lamp is plugged receives a lamp dimmer. |
| |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| These lamp dimmers install easily,
requiring no special wiring. They can be used to control
virtually any lighting device that plugs into a wall outlet. |
The master bedroom gets a controller
that simply plugs into an outlet and sits on the bedside
table. |
In the basement, a timer is installed
that will, among other things, turn the outside lights
on at dusk and off at midnight, using wireless radio waves.
|
| |
|
|
 |
 |
 |
| Its built in microprocessor adjusts
the turn on time each day and automatically compensates
for daylight savings time. |
With your new wireless lighting
system installed, you can go from this... |
...to this, in just the touch of
a button! |
