🔘 Pairing Button Notice

The small black button is only for pairing controls - press 3 times to enter pairing mode within 5 seconds, or 5 times within 5 seconds to exit pairing mode. (It does not turn power on or off.)

⚠️ Don’t Forget to Save Your Changes

Some versions of the app require you to manually save your settings.
After making any changes on the Device Management page, scroll to the very top and tap the “Save” button.

Without saving, your changes won’t be sent to your Egis Control device.

❗ If Pairing Fails or You Need to Change Your Wi-Fi Connection

a. Unplug and re-plug the device into the electrical outlet.
b. Wait at least 15 seconds after plugging in before touching the button.

    • Plug your Egis Control device into a wall outlet.
    • As soon as you hear the beep, press and hold the button until the light turns off (this can take upwards to 60 seconds more or less).
    • Once the light turns off, release the button.
    • Then press and hold the button again for another 15 seconds or so, until the light begins blinking — this means the device is now in pairing mode and ready to connect with the app.

f. Once the LED begins blinking, return to Step 4 in the app to complete pairing.

If the device isn’t connected to the app within that time, it will automatically exit pairing mode (LED stops blinking and returns to solid green).
