The Blue Series 2-1 Switch has many different button combinations that indicate what the switch is doing or what settings and parameters are being changed.

Standard Button Combinations are used to either pair/remove your switch, check Zigbee strength, or factory reset your switch

Quick Tap Sequences is a quick and easy way to change the important parameters (ie: changing from On/Off to Dimmer, Leading to Trailing Edge, etc).

Local Configuration is a more complex way of changing additional parameters outside of the Quick Tap Sequences.

Standard Button Combinations for your Blue Series 2-1 Switch are used to either pair/remove your switch, check Zigbee strength, or factory reset your switch.

To pair your Blue Series 2-1 switch, put your hub in pairing mode and tap the configuration (favorites) button 3x and your LED Bar will start pulsing blue - if successful, the LED Bar will then flash green (if unsuccessful, it will flash red).

To check the strength of your Zigbee network where your Blue Series 2-1 switch is at, hold down on the configuration (favorites) button for 5-10 seconds until the LED Bar turns green. Release the configuration button when the LED Bar turns green and the color of the LED Bar will be the strength of your network: green equals good, yellow equals ok, and red equals poor.

To factory reset your Blue Series 2-1 switch, hold down on the top of the paddle (on button) along with the configuration (favorites) button for approximately 20 seconds until the LED Bar turns red and then release.

The Blue Series 2-1 Switch has various settings and parameters you can change at the switch itself via the configuration (favorites) button located at the top right of the switch.

To access additional parameters outside of the Quick Tap Sequences, you'll want to use Local Configuration.

To see the Local Configuration Table, click here: Local Configuration Table

Here is the logic to change the parameters locally:

Example: If you'd like to change the color of your Blue Series 2-1 switch LED Bar you would hold down on the configuration button until the LED Bar turns Yellow and let go. The LED Bar will blink Yellow 1x to indicate it's in Local Configuration Mode. Using the Local Configuration Table, you will see that to access the LED Bar Color, you would tap the configuration button 9x. After you tap the configuration button 9x, the LED Bar will slow blink 9x to indicate it's on the correct parameter. Next, you will tap the paddle up or down to select the LED Bar color you want. Finally, to save the configuration, you will hold down on the configuration button until the LED Bar turns Yellow and let go. It will blink Cyan to confirm.

Below you'll find tables for the Standard Button Combinations, Quick Tap Sequences as well as Local Control Options.

In order to conserve space, we've abbreviated some of the words in the, "Action" column. Here are the abbreviations:

Here's how you read this chart:

Example: If you'd like to enable Smart Bulb Mode on your Blue Series 2-1 switch manually, you would hold down on the top part of the paddle (on) while simultaneously tapping the configuration button four times. After the fourth time tapping, continue to hold the top part of the paddle (on) until the LED Bar flashes solid yellow indicating the switch has enabled Smart Bulb Mode.

Here's how you read this chart:

Example: Let's say you wanted to change the LED Bar to a color of orange when the load is on. You would see that the #9 is, "LED Indicator Color (When On)". Then the Value column says that Orange is an option and the instructions say to tap up/down the paddle until you find Orange. An example is shown below in the, "Video Demonstration".
