Using the Dashboard
Access the Pulse Dashboard. If this is not the default screen upon opening the app, you can access it by tapping DASHBOARD on the Menu Bar / Footer.
Scroll down the Dashboard to locate the tile for the Light or Switch you want to control. Tap to turn the light or switch on or off. Use the slider to control dimmable lights.
Using the Navigation Menu
Tap the Navigation (hamburger) menu icon in the left corner of the header to display the main menu, then tap Lights & Switches.
The All Lights screen displays, showing a tile for each light and switch attached to your Pulse system. The devices are listed in alphabetical order by device name. Tap to turn the light or switch on or off. Use the slider to control dimmable lights.
Changing Settings
To turn the device On or Off, tap the tile. The current state will be shown beneath the device name on the tile. Also, the icon color will change accordingly – a Clear bulb indicates the device is Off; a Yellow bulb indicates the device in On.
When a dimmer switch is off, slide the dimmer to the right to turn on the light at the selected brightness. The amount of yellow color in the icon will correspond to the percentage of illumination selected. When you turn off a light with a dimmer, the brightness level goes all the way to the left. When you turn that light on again, the brightness level returns to its previous level.
Latest Activity
To view a list of all light and switch activity, tap Activity at the top of the All Lights screen. This displays a time- stamped log of all light and switch activity that has occurred within the designated time period; the default is the last 30 days.
You can filter by time or by a specific device. To select, tap the circle by the desired item; a green check indicates that it has been selected. Tap APPLY to display the selection, or CANCEL to cancel.
