FQA:
1. How can I know it is connected correctly?
A: Press the on/off button, dim button on both Master and Add-On switch. They
should work properly. Indicator lights on the Master Switch can show the
brightness of light bulbs.
2. After installing the Add-On switch, I see all indicator lights flash on
the Mater Switch. What’s wrong?
A: This means the TRA-1 and TRA-2 are reversed. Just check and change them
back.
3. I cannot find the neutral wire in both outlet boxes; Can I still use
this 3-way dimmer switch?
A: No, the neutral wire is necessary for the Master Switch.
Although your old switches do not need a neutral wire. There are spare white
neutral wires in the outlet box. Please send us photos of the wires inside the
outlet boxes.
4. How can I find which one is the live (hot) line, neutral wire?
A: Besides the ground wire, there are three wires on your old switch in
general:
- 1 black & 1 red wire from the same location, they are TRA-1 & TRA-2;
- 1 black wire from another location, it is live or load. You can use a tester to test it.
- If it is live (hot) wire, install Master Switch here;
- If it is load wire, install Add-on Switch here.
