Lol, I'm glad you stuck around to see the rest of the video. Thanks for watching! I'm glad it helped.

All I can say is two years…TWO YEARS!! Two years ago I bought my house and the previous owners installed this switch in the bathroom and didn’t leave any information. They must have had it set to 3 minutes before it turns off because it seemed like I was constantly sticking my hand out of the shower and waving it to get the light on. I never noticed the brand name on it and figured I was just screwed and I never bothered getting a new one. This video was so helpful!

Thanks guys! Glad I’m I wasn’t the only one waving at a light switch mid shower. 🤣🤣🤣 and that the 2 year mark is the average timeframe for being fed up!

Installed these in the bathroom of my bar that has a very low key dark atmosphere. needless to say having these ramp up to max brightness all the time was antithetical to having a dimmer in the first place. After reading the manual and watching another video, YOURS saved my ass. Thank you very much.

This video is SO MUCH BETTER than the one by the company itself! Thank you - my switch is now perfectly set up!

Great video, I'd like to add to exit programming mode instead of waiting 1 minute for it to timeout. You can simply press the T button or big rectangular center button and hold it for 5 seconds it will exist. Caution holding it for 15 seconds restores all settings back to factory settings.

Is there a way to disable the motion sensor altogether so you can just turn it on and off manually? I work in a salon suite and they have one of these installed in my room. I use alternative lighting because I hate the ugly LED ceiling lights in my room, but the lights keep turning on when I don't want them to. (I don't have the instructions.) Thank you!

Even though I follow your step by step instruction the unit seems not to hold the settings. I had this unit elsewhere in my house and decided to move it to a bathroom for motion sensing on/off because the builder put the switch in a non-standard location in the room. But even when I had installed it in my kitchen the set up programming took an eternity. I have many Caseta units which are easy to make work. This Maestro was designed by angry engineers with a vendetta against humanity. A royal pain in the keester.

Amazing video!!!! Well made

Does anyone have an issue where the lights turn on but the 25 seconds timer turns off the lights while there is still movement in the room?

I seem to remember programming it as OWO (off while occupied) I believe it’s your only option to turn it into vacancy mode. (Manual on, then timeout after 1-30 minutes) if room is not occupied.

Any way to have it stay on? I love the motion detection to turn it on, but when we’re watching TV we have the living room light off and leave the kitchen lights on (this switch) but hate having to wave something to have it come back on. Would like to just be able to leave it on, then turn it off when we’re done, but also have it automatically turn on when we come back into the room. Sorry for the long question.

Yea. Buy a regular dimmer switch

Do you have to reprogram it if the lights go out? I'm thinking I may return it and try another brand. Does anyone have recommendation. --Thanks for an excellent video.

The fastest way to set the program preference (I believe)once your done is to pull the “Fass” button then push it back in😅

Does this work with Apple HomeKit

I installed 4X LED panel lights in the kitchen. They are 4' x 2' that sit in a ceiling grid system. Rated at 4k lumens each and it's a small (120 Sq.Ft) room and it's light walking into the sun. They are dimmable so I bought the switch you reviewed here. Not only does it not dim the lights but when it's being turned down and reaches about half way the lights begin flickering. One light stays bright and the other 3 alternate flickering among themselves. Each light is 30w for a total of 120w. I did nothing with the derating section as this switch in in a box with mechanical switches. So bottom line, it isn't dimming the lights and when it reaches about half way down the flickering begins. Any suggestions?

How I can bypass the sensor, like keep the lights on permanent for few hours.

Anyone have issues using this with led pod lights? It only works on the most dim setting with motion on. If I have it at anything higher then most dim setting, the light just flash like a camera for a second but doesn't stay on. Are my led too low wattage?

I have mine hooked up right but they are at each end of my hall but the light won't turn on now

Thanks

Hi Seth. Great video - I can't seem to figure out how to turn the light down so it turns completely off to dark. Is that in the ambient light settings?

Is there a way to raise the level of Ambien light detect ? Or will adjusting the motion sensitivity to high resolve the issue?

@sethwilliams43

Жыл бұрын

Yep, if the lights aren't turning on when you want them to, just hit the button within 5 seconds of walking into the room, and it should start to learn when you want the lights on based on the ambient light level in the room when you push the button.

I got this switch and it works fine except for one thing...it doesn't completely turn off. If I leave the room, it turns all the way to the lowest possible position, but not completely off for some reason. It stays on really low like a night light. I can't figure out how to get it to turn off completely.

That's strange. I'm not sure if that's a faulty switch or just a strange setting (it sounds more like the former than the latter, but I'm not 100% sure). You could try calling Lutron customer service to ask about that. They're pretty good at answering these questions pretty quick and painlessly.

After installing mine the 1st day it worked fine but the 2nd day my lights started buzzing. Ive noticed it after programming it I believe. Any clues whats the cause and how to fix the annoying cricket sound buzzing?

Do you have the wires connected to the switch correctly? Could there be any issues with the wires touching each other?

Hi Seth, great video. Did you use the same model for both switches? Is there a companion switch? How did you wire it?

Hey Edward! Yep, there's actually a special way to write it with a companion switch (if you're just using one other switch, it can be a simple mechanical switch). The companion switch wires have to be paired a certain way, which is beyond the scope of this video. When I did it, I figured it out by calling Lutron customer support and they were able to help me get it done. Their number is 1.800.523.9466. Good luck!

Pontification

TOO much personal preference dialogue. Programming mode times out with all the chitchat ☹️

So here’s my issue, my ceiling fan was connected to my light and now it determines the power of my switch also. So my question is, how do I keep my fan separate in operation akin to having my basic light switch turn both on, but I could turn the fan off from the actual fan? Because the dimmer doesn’t let me operate the fan separately like it used to with the basic flip switch.
