Quick Start Guide - standalone

standalone only works with Bluetooth-enabled lights (luminaires and lamps).

Using Bluetooth-enabled lights without a gateway only allows for local configuration and control via Bluetooth.
To remotely modify and control the lights, see connected .

Prerequisites

The following prerequisites are expected before starting:

  • The lights are physically installed and powered

Get started with the app

The Interact Pro app is the tool to configure a lighting system after installation.

Download the Interact Pro app from either Apple’s App Store (for iOS) or Google’s Play Store.

After downloading, as an installer you have to register yourself by tapping Request access on the login screen of the app.

  4. Select the project by tapping its name. Now the project can be commissioned.

To commission a system, the installer role is required.
When creating a new project, the installer role is automatically added for that project.
Self-registration with the app doesn’t automatically assign this role.

Manage the system

After configuring the system, ensure that the project can be accessed by the end user by creating an owner account.

  1. Tap the User icon tab.

  2. Tap Invite owner and enter the owner’s email address.
    Tap Next.
