Wireless battery-powered switch, twofold, Zigbee®
Description
This twofold wireless battery-powered Zigbee® switch allows you to remotely control wireless Zigbee® devices. It can either be used in a Niko Home Control installation (max. fifty Zigbee® devices) or connected to a third-party Zigbee® system as a standard dimmer switch (ON/OFF/ dimming) via EZ-mode pairing. The switch also supports Touchlink or Find&Bind to pair with up to eight Zigbee® receivers (ON/OFF/dimming) for stand-alone use or decentral networks. The wireless Zigbee® switch is battery powered with a lifetime of at least five years, based on twenty short press actuations a day. The variant with a plastic baseplate (552-72002) is used for wall installation. Fixation is possible with double-sided adhesive tape (included) or screws (excluded). For flush-mounting box installation, use variant 552-72012 together with the metal baseplate (552-720X0) suitable for your region.

Zigbee® network
Install the twofold wireless battery powered Zigbee® switch within 10 m of a Zigbee® receiver. Battery-powered Zigbee® devices act as endpoints and do not support Zigbee® mesh networking. For more information on Zigbee® network principles and signal range, consult guide.niko.eu.
Installation
Battery replacement
Stand-alone use
The twofold wireless battery-powered Zigbee® switch (522-720X2) can be used in stand-alone mode without a gateway. In this mode, each control button can be paired with Zigbee® receivers (ON/OFF/dimming). The twofold switch can be paired with up to eight Zigbee® receivers in total, such as a smart Zigbee® 3.0 lamp. Pairing is done via Touchlink or Find&Bind.
Touchlink pairing
Reset all Zigbee® devices if they were previously connected to another Zigbee®
network. See § Reset.
For Find&Bind pairing consult guide.niko.eu
Connected use
More advanced functionalities become available if you connect this device to
your wireless smart hub (552-00001) or wireless bridge (550-00640) using the
Niko Home Control programming software or Niko Home app.
Consult guide.niko.eu for more information about the installation and the
connected use.

How to connect the Niko device to the Niko Home Control network
- Reset the Niko Zigbee® device if it is already connected to another network. See § Reset.
- Follow the onboarding procedure in the Niko Home Control programming software or the Niko Home app to add new Niko Zigbee® devices
- Set the Niko Zigbee® device in EZ-mode by pressing on of the switch buttons 3 x within 6 seconds > see the image on ‘EZ-mode pairing’. The blue PROGRAM LED starts blinking for max. 90 seconds
- The Zigbee® device is successfully added to the Niko Home Control installation when the blue PROGRAM LED is ON for 4 seconds and then turns OFF again.
EZ-mode pairing
Connected to a third-party Zigbee® network
The twofold wireless battery-powered Zigbee® switch can be connected to a
third-party network via EZ-mode pairing. Refer to the third-party software or
smartphone app to link a specific button of the battery-powered Zigbee® switch
to an actor within the third-party network. You can also use Find&Bind
pairing. Consult guide.niko.eu and the manufacturer’s manual for more
information on using third-party Zigbee® devices in their network. Note that
specific Niko Home Control functions will not be enabled when Niko Zigbee®
devices are connected to a third-party Zigbee® gateway. See also the
disclaimer at http://www.niko.eu/zigbee

Troubleshooting
Problem | Cause | Action |
---|
The connected switch cannot be found in the Niko Home app
or programming software| The power supply of the wireless smart hub
for Niko Home Control is OFF| Switch on the power supply of the wireless smart
hub for Niko Home Control
The battery of the Zigbee® switch is drained| A battery low warning is
displayed on the Niko Home Control Home app. A battery low indication (red-
coloured LED) will only be shown on the Zigbee® device after a long press on
the PROGRAM button (see § Reset). Replace the coin cell battery (refer to §
Battery replacement). Mind that the PRO- GRAM LED remains OFF when the battery
voltage level is below the minimum threshold
The receiver never responds when I press a Zigbee ®
**switch button in stand-alone use**| The battery of the Zigbee®
switch is drained
The Zigbee® switch is not correctly paired with the receiver| Reset the
Zigbee® battery-pow- ered switch if it was paired to another Zigbee® network.
Pair the switch to a stand-alone receiver, Niko Home Control, or a third-
party Zigbee® network. See guide. niko.eu for more details
Another Zigbee® battery-powered switch is paired with the receiver
The Zigbee® battery-powered switch is mounted outside of the receiver’s radio
coverage or is sometimes moved outside
the range
| Move the Niko Zigbee® switch closer to the receiver or use a range extender
such as a 230 V powered Zigbee® 3.0 device in a Niko Home Control installation
or third-party system
The radio path is obstructed, which attenuates the radio signal| Reposition
the Zigbee® switch or use a range extender such as a 230 V powered Zigbee® 3.0
device in a Niko Home Control installation or third-party system
A jammer or a source of interfer- ence is blocking the telegrams from the
Zigbee® battery-powered switch to the receiver| Reposition the Zigbee® switch
or Zigbee® receiver. Remove the interfering device or use a range extender
such as a 230 V
powered Zigbee® 3.0 device in a Niko Home Control installation or third-party system
The Zigbee® battery-powered switch is defective| Replace the switch and pair
the new Zigbee® battery-powered switch with the receiver. Both devices may
have to be reset first
| The receiver is defective| Replace the receiver and pair it with the new
Zigbee® receiver
The receiver doesn’t always respond when I press the
Niko Zigbee ® **battery-pow- ered switch**| The receiver is
located at the border of the radio coverage area| Install the switch closer to
the receiver or use a range extender such as a 230 V powered Zigbee® 3.0
device in a Niko Home Control installation or third-party system
A jammer or a source of interference is blocking the telegrams from the Niko
Zigbee® battery-powered switch to the receiver| Reposition the Zigbee® switch
or receiver, remove the interfering device or use a range extender such as a
230 V powered Zigbee® 3.0 device in a Niko Home Control installation or third-
party system
LED behavior
PROGRAM LED is OFF| | The PROGRAM button is not pressed
(correctly), or the battery is empty| Press the PROGRAM button long enough or
replace the coin cell battery. The PROGRAM LED is not active during normal
operation
---|---|---|---
PROGRAM LED is flashing blue|
| The switch is trying to connect to the Zigbee® network. The battery level is sufficiently high| Wait until the LED stops flashing, which can take up to 90 seconds. The blinking frequency depends on the pairing method:
- repeated 1 x: EZ-mode pairing (Niko Home Control or third-party network)
- repeated 2 x: Touchlink pairing
- repeated 4 x: Find& Bind pairing
A flashing red LED also indicates a low battery level
PROGRAM LED is blue for 4 seconds| The wireless battery-
powered Zigbee® switch is connected to the Zigbee® network, and the battery
level is sufficiently high| The PROGRAM LED will switch OFF after 4 seconds.
The wireless battery-powered Zigbee® switch is ready to be used. A red LED
also indicates a low battery level
PROGRAM LED is flashing red| A red LED indicates that the
battery level is low. See above for more information on the difference between
a flashing LED and a LED that is permanently ON| Replace the coin cell
battery. The red LED is not active during normal operation and remains OFF
when the battery voltage level is too low
PROGRAM LED is permanently red
