This guide shows you how to install, configure and use a

Wireless Miro system. It complements the installation

instructions supplied with each Miro product. Carefully

read all product instructions. This guide assumes a basic

knowledge of good wiring practices. All wiring must

comply with applicable electrical and safety codes. A l l

electrical installation work should be carried out by an

experienced electrician.

Wireless Miro is a powerful no-new-wires lighting control system. It uses the 900MHz RF

band to create a fast wireless control network in any home, board room, office or

restaurant, offering the functionality of wired systems that would cost far more. Wi r e l e s s

Miro is equally well suited to new construction and retrofit applications.

Wireless Miro Installation Guide

Installing Miro

Hardware

Te r m i n a t i o n

Most Wireless Miro devices incorporate easy-to-

wire backwire terminals. Note that:

a Controllers require Line, Neutral and Ground

c o n n e c t i o n s .

b Universal Dimmers and Switches require Line,

Neutral, Load and Ground connections.

c , d Incandescent Dimmers may be installed in

switch-leg circuits as a direct replacement for a

single-pole switch. Miro Incandescent Dimmers

do not require a Neutral connection.

e Fan Controls use flying leads, also known as

pigtail connections, for Line, Neutral, Load and

Ground connections.

Plug-in Lamp Modules and Plug-In A p p l i a n c e

Modules plug into existing power receptacles. Yo u

then plug the lamp or appliance directly into the

Miro plug-in module. See the

The plastic plate on the back of the sub-plate

protects the wall in case the wall box is recessed.

If the wall box is a flanged knock-in box, remove

the plastic plate from the steel plate. This helps to

conceal the wall box and keeps the back of the

Miro faceplate flush with the wall.

Slip the sub-plate

Test for Load Function

After the hardware installation is complete and you

have applied power to the devices, observe the LED

on each Wireless Miro device. The LED should be

solid yellow. If it is any other color, see

Tr o u b l e s h o o t i n g

on page 5.

Tap the top of the Miro device paddle to turn the load

on. The LED flashes red for two seconds then

returns to solid yellow. If it continues to flash red,

read Load Troubleshooting, below. Tap the bottom

of the paddle to turn the load off. The LED flashes

red for two seconds then returns to solid yellow.

Load Tr o u b l e s h o o t i n g

Miro dimmers, plug-in lamp modules and fan controls

include patented overload protection that avoids

damage to the Miro device in most cases of a load

side short-circuit or overload.* Fault conditions

display on the status LED, as follows:

The status LED is flashing red

• at 1Hz (5 times in 5 seconds):

The device has detected an unsuitable load or a

load below 25 watts.

To clear the fault condition, tap and wait for the

LED to stop flashing.

Disconnect power, check the load, restore

power and try again.

• at 2Hz (10 times in 5 seconds):

The device has detected an overload

condition and has shut down.

To clear the fault condition, tap and wait for

the LED to stop flashing.

Disconnect loads in excess of rated load and

try again.

• at 3Hz (15 times in 5 seconds):

The device has detected a short-circuit

condition and has shut down.

To clear the fault condition, tap and wait for

the LED to stop flashing.

Remove power, rectify the short-circuit

condition, restore power, and try again.

* Short-circuit protection is not provided in

switches or plug-in appliance modules. In other

products this protection is effective only when

the load is turned on from an off state. A p p l y i n g

a short-circuit while the load is energized may

damage the device.

1 To prevent interference with

neighboring Wireless Miro

systems, Wireless Miro devices

must obtain a house ID that is

unique to this installation.

2 Wireless Miro devices may be

bound together in groups. Devices

bound in a group will all operate

when one device operates. For

example, two dimmers grouped

together both respond when either

dimmer is operated. A g r o u p

usually includes one or more

Multilocation Controllers with a

Dimmer or Plug-in Module.

3 Wireless Miro devices and groups

in a room may be bound together

with one or more room level scene

controllers to provide pushbutton

control of multiple recorded lighting

presets, or scenes.

4 Wireless Miro devices and groups

throughout the house may be

bound together with one or more

house level scene controllers to

provide one touch control of up to

10 whole house scenes.

Houses, Groups and Rooms - Understanding Binding

I M P O R TA N T: To simplify the binding process, carry out binding in this sequence:

House Binding

Group Binding Room Binding

Wireless Miro builds a fast bidirectional RF

control network and requires no special tools or

specialist knowledge to configure. Follow a few

simple procedures, and you’re done.

To function as a system, Wireless Miro devices

have to be “bound” together into a simple

wireless network. This is very easy to do, but it

helps to understand how and why it works.

Read this page to understand Wireless Miro network

structure, then follow the step-by-step instructions to

get your system up and running.

House scenes may include any or all Wireless Miro

devices in the house. They may be used to put the

house to sleep at night, wake it up in the morning, for

entertaining and even to emulate occupancy when

you are away (see page 12).

There are two parts to setting up a house scene. First,

bind the devices you want to include in the scene

(steps 1-3), then, set levels and record the scene

(steps 4-5). Once the binding is done, you can re-

record levels as often as you like, using steps 4-5.

House ON and house OFF scenes that are

initiated by tapping the paddle always use 100%

and 0% levels respectively. You can modify

binding, but not levels, so when you finish step 3,

the paddle scene process is complete.

Go to a House Scene Controller or House Scene

Remote. Press for two seconds – then either

press the scene button you want to record o r t a p

the top of the paddle for the house ON function or

bottom of the paddle for the house OFF function.

seconds – all LEDs revert to

solid green.

Tip:

If there is a Room Scene Remote in the room, use it to initiate this procedure. The remote holds

a list of all the room devices for its SEEK function. Using the Remote to initiate the process

causes the Remote to automatically update its SEEK list. It takes about 20 seconds to update

the list and no other functions operate during this time. See page 16 for SEEK operation.

If you don’t initiate using the Room Scene Remote, you must repeat steps 1 and 3 from it,

allowing about 20 seconds after step 3 for the SEEK list to update.

Installation Guide

Wireless Miro supports up to 15 scenes per room

and 10 house scenes. Devices are shipped from the

factory set up for scenes 1-5.

All scene buttons on controllers and remotes set for

the same range of scenes operate the scenes the

same way. If, for example, one Room Scene Remote

and two Room Scene Controllers are all set for

scenes 1-5, when you press the top scene button

from any of those devices, the bound devices will

react the same way.

To cancel the PANIC state and revert to normal

operation, press PANIC a second time. Each

device included in the PANIC will revert to its

status prior to PANIC initiation.

Advanced

Operation

(continued)

Only devices specifically bound into house

scenes are included in those scenes. Let’s say

you have a house scene that lights a pathway

from the bedroom to the kitchen – you probably

wouldn’t want this to turn out the lights for

someone working late in another part of the

house. So you include in the house scene only

the lights that you need for the pathway.

On the other hand, you may want to have a house

scene that closes down the house for the night,

maybe leaving a little light on the landing. In this

case, you need to include into the house scene all

the devices that you want to be OFF, and set them

to OFF.

Setting a house scene where all devices are

included in a large house may take some time, but

you will be glad you did it every time you press that

one button that turns off all those lights just before

you retire.

Including “OFF” Devices in House Scenes

PANIC is a security feature, designed to deter

intruders. You select certain Wireless Miro

devices around the home to be activated by the

PANIC button on the House Scene Remote.

They will normally be:

• Lighting (dimmer) circuits, usually on the first

f l o o r. When a PANIC is initiated, they will

flash ON and OFF continuously

• Switched lighting circuits – outside lights.

Selected Switches will latch ON when PANIC is

initiated.

• You can also use a siren or bell, connected to a

Plug-in Appliance Module.

NOTE: The Watt Stopper, Inc., and its agents and

resellers accept no responsibility in the event either

that the PANIC function fails to operate or that its use

fails to deter an intruder.

Setting up and Using PA N I C

Go to each device to be included in

the panic state and press f o r

two seconds. The LED flashes

The Wireless Repeater has two functions. It increases

the effective range of Wireless Miro devices and it

provides occupancy emulation. With occupancey

emulation, you can activate it when you leave home

so that lights operate automatically as if someone is

in the house. For more information about

occupancy emulation, see page 12,

Protecting your Home with an Occupancy

Emulation Scene.

It may be necessary to use a repeater to

increase the range in a large home, in a

space with difficult radio reception

conditions, or where bronze cover

plates are being used.

When radio reception is an

issue, some Wireless Miro

devices do not respond to

commands. This may be intermittent in

some cases. A good way to check is at

initialization. When you first bind the house ID, start

with a device in one corner of the home. Wa l k

around the home to make sure that every device is

flashing its status LED yellow. If any devices are

not flashing yellow, they didn't get the binding

message. You may need to add a Repeater.

The Repeater must be bound to the house for it to

work; see

Adding a Device to the House,

page 8.

G e n e r a l l y, the repeater is located in the center of

the building, measuring both vertically and

h o r i z o n t a l l y. The repeater is quite small, and

may often be conveniently located atop

a cupboard or cabinet.

You may use up to two Wireless Miro

Repeaters. For more information on

designing systems that require more

Repeaters, see the Miro Specification Guide, or

c o n f i g u r a t i o n :

Go to any house level scene

controller and simultaneously

press and buttons B and E

until the scene controller LED

flashes GREEN.

Go back to the previously

locked device and press .

• If it flashes green or yellow,

you have unlocked the

house configuration.

• If the device still flashes

red, the configuration may

be locked by a room level

scene controller such as the

MRD6 or MRH6.

Go to the room scene

controller and simultaneously

press and buttons B and E

until the scene controller LED

flashes GREEN.

Go back to the previously

locked device and press .

• If it flashes green or yellow,

you have unlocked the

room configuration.

• If the device still flashes

red, the configuration may

be locked by another room

level scene controller in the

house. Repeat the

procedure from different

controllers until the device

is no longer flashing red.

Advanced

Operation

(continued)

The Repeater monitors all Wireless Miro network

t r a f fic, and records a seven-day 'loop' of network

events. When so required, it starts to 'play back'

the recorded loop, providing a highly realistic

emulation of real occupancy – a great security

feature when you're away from home.

There are two ways to start occupancy emulation:

• Press the 'away' button on the face of the

Repeater

• Include a Repeater (only one in multiple-Repeater

installations) in a house scene, as follows:

Protecting your Home with an Occupancy Emulation Scene

What happens when you try to turn ON a table

lamp from the lamp’s integral switch, if it is

plugged into a Miro Plug-in Lamp Module? Yo u

might expect that you can’t turn the lamp on from

the lamp’s switch, if the Miro module turned it

O F F. But, Wireless Miro Plug-in Lamp and Plug-

in Appliance Modules are smart enough to

anticipate this problem. They sense the integral

lamp switch opening and closing and immediately

apply power to the load. We call this feature

‘ a u t o - O N ’ .

Auto-ON in Lamp and Appliance Modules

Go to the Repeater and press

(both buttons) for two seconds. The

LED flashes yellow, indicating that it

is included in the scene.

I m p o r t a n t: Only use one Repeater in

an occupancy emulation scene.

On a House Scene Controller press f o r

two seconds, t h e n press a scene button.

We recommend using the bottom scene

button for house OFF, and the next one up

for occupancy emulation – it’s easy to

r e m e m b e r.

Return to the House Scene

Controller and press for two

seconds to complete.

N o w, pressing the house scene

button starts occupancy emulation.

All lights flash once, then, after a

one minute delay, emulation begins.

Canceling occupancy emulation is automatic.

When you return to the house and press any

button on any Wireless Miro device, the Repeater

senses it, cancels occupancy emulation mode,

and reverts to recording network traff i c .

Wireless Miro provides an elegant way of

controlling a lighting circuit from multiple

locations.

This is how a conventional 3 or 4-way circuit

works – when any switch is thrown, the current

path through the circuit is opened or closed:

Replacing Existing 3-way and 4-way Circuits

There are several variations on the actual wiring

layout, depending mainly on the physical location

of the lighting load.

THIS WORK SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY

A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Using Wireless Miro, the circuit is much simpler,

and may be installed using existing 3- and 4-way

w i r i n g .

The wiring will look like this:

Load Box

Locate the box where the load wire

lands. Install a Wireless Miro dimmer

or switch. If using a Miro

Incandescent Dimmer, the neutral

wire is not used.

Supply Box

Locate the box where the supply

wire lands. Install a Wireless Miro

Multilocation Controller. Use the

traveler to feed line and neutral to

the other Wireless Miro devices in

the circuit.

Intermediate Box (4-way circuits)

Locate the intermediate box(es), usually

occupied by the 4-way switch(es). Install

a Wireless Miro Multilocation Controller.

Use the traveler to feed line and neutral to

the other Wireless Miro devices in the

c i r c u i t .

Typical 4-way switching

circuit - for 3-way, take

out the 4-way switch.
