Network Range
If you are using a smart device or Web browser, then your network range is virtually unlimited since you can
access your lights through the Internet. As long as your Gateway is connected to the Internet through a router,
you could access your lighting network through your smart device or Web browser from a remote location.
For most of the time, you will likely access your lighting through your smart device when you are at home, in
which case your smart device connects through your home network instead of the Internet. In this case, the
range for your smart device is limited by the range of your wireless router.
Manually Powering Light Bulbs On and Off
Wireless light bulbs are powered through light fixtures the same way standard light bulbs are. However, you must
leave the light fixtures in the on position so that power is available when using your smart device or remote
control to turn the wireless light bulbs on and off. If power is removed from a light bulb, whether from power
failure or from manually turning off the light fixture, the light bulb will turn off. When power is restored, all network
light bulbs affected by the power failure, regardless of whether they were previously on or off, will automatically
turn on at full brightness. The affected light bulbs will maintain their previous network settings so that you do not
have to reassign names and rooms or reprogram Smart Controls.
