The LED icons on a Deako Scene Controller Smart Switch or Smart Dimmer will light up throughout the setup process, here’s a breakdown of what each icon means.

1 icon is on: ready to pair or link

The switch is indicating it is ready to be paired to your app or linked to another switch in a multi-way. If you aren’t trying to do either of those things, you can tap the three little boxes in the upper left to exit this mode.

1 icon is flashing, 2 icon on: linking mode

Linking mode is part of the process of connecting multiple switches. (See Installing a Set of Switches) To exit this mode, tap the three little boxes in the upper left to exit.

3 is on: factory reset mode

Factory resetting is just a fancy way of saying your switch will go back to the way it was when it came out of the box. To exit this mode, tap the scene menu in the upper left. To continue with the factory reset, check out Factory Reset a Deako Switch.

1, 2, and 3 icons pulsing: pairing or linking

This means the switch is in the process of pairing to your app or linking to another switch. To exit this mode, hold down the switch for about 6 seconds.

Scene menu icon: scenes assigned to switch

This means you have 1 or more scenes assigned to the switch. Tap the scene menu to bring up the 1, 2, and/or 3 icons and tap any of them to execute the corresponding scene. If you see this when attempting to link a switch to another switch, you will likely need to factory reset the switch before continuing.
