Quick Reference (Overview, Specs, Installation, Regulatory)

Vivint Smart Lighting is a smart home indoor lighting solution that is comprised of three components — smart switches (mounting bracket and cover plate), bridges, and light bulbs. Smart Lighting can be installed as a standalone solution, or integrated with an existing Vivint Smart Home system to provide remote lighting control via the panel/hub or the mobile app. Either professionally installed or DIY installed by the homeowner, you simply connect the bridge device to the local network router, configure groups of lights install the smart light bulbs, and replace existing light switches with the corresponding smart switch.
The Vivint Smart Lighting switches can replace both toggle and rocker style light switches; and are compatible with single (1) gang, double (2) gang, and triple (3) gang switches. See the illustrations below. The setup follows the same general procedure for all smart switch types; however, please note that this document uses the single-gang toggle smart switch when describing switch-specific tasks in the installation instructions.
Key features include a remote control ability to turn the lights on/off and dim from 0% to 100%. Lights can be configured individually or in groups. The LED light on the switch plate indicates status and is used for visual feedback during the pairing process. Smart switches do not require an electrical connection and can be added to any room on any wall surface.
This document includes a product description, illustrations, installation instructions, and basic operation/user functionality; as well as technical specifications, standards listings, and regulatory compliance references.

Smart Switch Plates for Both Toggle and Rocker Style Switches (1, 2, 3 Gang)
Vivint Smart Lighting offers switch plates for both toggle and rocker switch styles, as well as compatibility for 1, 2, and 3 gangs. The switch plates (covers) are the same for both toggle and rocker switches. The three gang sizes are shown below, as well as a side and bottom view of the single switch.

Installation Instructions

Installing and setting up the Vivint Smart Lighting solution is a multi-step procedure but it is straightforward and can be quickly learned. The setup is comprised of the main tasks shown below. The Smart Home Pro or homeowner should carefully read all of these steps to ensure a successful installation and optimal performance. Please note that the switch-specific steps (and images) below describe an installation using the single-gang toggle smart switch. For additional information, refer to the Field Service Pros website.

MAIN SETUP TASKS OUTLINE

Bridge — Connect and pair the bridge to the network/system
Group — Select or create a “group” to which you can add smart light bulbs
Switch — Install the smart switch to control the group of lights

Task 1: To connect and pair the bridge to the network/system

At the panel, go to Smart Home Devices > Zigbee Devices > Zigbee Bridge.
Connect the bridge to the local network router, using the provided Ethernet cable.
Power it on by plugging the power supply into a wall outlet and connecting it to the bridge (USB-C).
Press the Pair button on the bottom of the bridge.
At the panel, select the Pair Bridge button. This may take a few minutes.
Once the bridge is paired, you can configure groups to which you add smart light bulbs and then set up a smart switch that will control that group of lights. Select the Set Up Lighting button.

Task 2: To select or create a group and add light bulbs:
IMPORTANT: Light bulbs must be added to a “group” even if that group contains only one bulb.

At the panel (after tapping Set Up Lighting), select the group to which you want to add the light bulbs, or enter a name to create a new custom group. Then select Set Up Bulbs.
Replace the existing bulbs with supported smart bulbs and power them on.
Next, at the panel, you can either scan for the bulbs, or you can enter their serial number manually. This may take a few minutes.
When the bulbs are discovered, they are added to the group. Select Save and Continue.
Once the bulbs have been added to a group, you can set up the smart switch to control that group. Select the Add New Vivint Switch button. To configure other groups, repeat the steps above.

Task 3: To install the smart switch (cover plates and mounting bracket) to control the group of lights:
NOTE: There are no mounting wall surface restrictions regarding where a smart switch can be installed. Additionally, since there is no electrical connection required, the switch can be added to any room with or without an electrical box.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to identify and turn off the appropriate circuit breaker before installing the smart switch.

At the light switch you want to replace, remove the old cover plate (save the 2 screws), and then secure the corresponding mounting bracket — toggle or rocker; 1 2 or 3 gang — using the 2 screws. CAUTION: If, when you remove the old cover plate, there is any evidence of arcing or burn marks on either the plate or the switch itself, reinstall the cover plate and contact an electrician or other qualified electrical person to have them replace the existing switch before installing the Vivint Smart Lighting smart switch.
At the panel (after tapping Add New Vivint Switch), prepare the smart switch by pairing it to the network/system. Remove the battery pull tab from the smart switch. The LED light will blink green to indicate power and boot up. Press the PAIR button (or you can press any other button) to scan for the network. The LED light will breathe green. (NOTE: If the network is not found after 1 minute, the network search will stop and the LED will begin blinking green again. Repeat the pairing process. If necessary, you can reset the smart switch by pressing and holding the button for 15 seconds.) Once successfully paired the LED will illuminate solid green for 3 seconds. Failed illuminates solid red for 3 seconds.
For double- and triple-gang switch plates, you can configure each switch with its specific group of lights that it will control. Follow the prompts in the setup screens.
Once the new smart switch is paired and associated with a group of lights it is fully set up, and you can then attach the smart switch cover plate on the mounting bracket. Select Save & Complete.
IMPORTANT: Turn the in-wall light switch to the ON position before proceeding.
Attach the corresponding smart switch on the mounting bracket. Slide the lock button on the bottom of the bracket to the right to unlock it. Insert the top of the switch plate into the top of the bracket and tilt it downward until it snaps firmly into place. Slide the lock button to the left to secure the switch cover plate to the bracket.
To set up more smart switches, repeat the steps above.
At the panel Home screen, you can tap the light bulb icon in the navigation bar at the bottom of the touchscreen to control your smart lighting. You can also access and control the lights via the app. See “Operation Overview” for an introduction to features and directions to additional Help resources.

Operation Overview / User Functionality
Once the smart lighting is set up and running, the homeowner can use both the Vivint panel and the mobile app to perform the following functions. For detailed step-by-step instructions, refer to the online Help resources (articles and video tutorials) at the Vivint Support site.
