Please follow the instructions in the video below to get your I LumoS WIFI switches working with The Broadlink RM PRO+ and the Amazon Alexa via voice control from your IOS and Android Device.
Step 1: Synchronise your remote control with your switches:
WIFI On/Off Only Switches:

- When you see the flashing blue light, let go off the light switch and then press Dim1, Dim2 or Dim3 (on the White Remote Control) or C (on the key fob remote control) once.
Follow the same procedure for any other Gangs the remote will use by using Dim 2 and Dim 3. Arrows directly under are for dimming up and down.
Step 2: Synchronise the Switches with the Broadlink RM PRO
- Connect the Broadlink RM PRO Device to a mains port in the range of your Router.
- Reset the device by sticking and holding a pin for 5 seconds on the side of the device where it says Reset and then let go until you get a fast flashing blue light. If the light is already flashing blue, reset is unnecessary.
