SAFETY
Read through the entire instruction first. Engage a professional if so
required. Nexa cannot be held liable if the product is used for any
purpose other than the one for which it is designed, or if there is
failure to comply with the instruction.
Never connect bulbs or equipment exceeding the receiver’s
maximum stated load – this may lead to faults, short-circuiting or
fire. Do not attempt to repair the product.
The product contains no repairable parts.
INSTALLATION
Make sure that the conductors are powered down by turning
off the power in the distribution box.
Connect Phase to L and IN, Load/Ignition wire to LS and Zero
Conductor to N.
AN-179 can be connected to power switches, even momentary
switches, for control, also see wiring diagram.
Please note that switches connected to AN-179 must be potential
free, i.e. fully insulated from 230 V.

Range indoors: up to 30 m (optimal conditions). The range is
very dependent on the local conditions, for example, if there
are metals in the vicinity. For example, the thin metal coating in
energy glass with low emissivity has a negative influence on the
range of the radio signals. There may be restrictions on the use of
the unit outside the EU. If appropriate, you should check that the
unit complies with local regulations.
Max load: Never connect lights or equipment that exceed the
receiver's maximum load. This could lead to faults, short-
circuiting or fire.
Life-support equipment: Never use Nexa's products with life-
support equipment or other devices where faults or interference
could have life-threatening consequences.
Interference: All wireless units can suffer from interference that
can affect the performance and range.
For this reason, the minimum distance between two receivers
should be at least 50 cm
Repair: Do not attempt to repair the product. It does not contain
any repairable parts.
Waterproofing: The product is not waterproof. Make sure it is dry
at all times. Damp causes the electronics inside to corrode and this
could lead to short-circuiting, faults and a risk for electric shocks.
Cleaning: Clean the product with a dry cloth. Do not use
chemicals, solvents or strong cleaning agents.
Environment: Do not expose the product to intense heat or cold,
because it could damage or shorten the service life of the
electric circuits.
