Add ZigBee Devices

HyPanel Lux can connect to many ZigBee devices, such as sensors, emergency button, IR controller, thermostat, smart switch, and more. For example, you can add and fit a CO sensor in your kitchen to identify carbon monoxide leaks.

NOTE:

The transmission distances of ZigBee signal may vary by environmental characteristics and more. For optimal performance, add ZigBee devices to the HyPanel Lux within the same room.

Put devices in paring mode

Before pairing the ZigBee devices with the HyPanel, you should know how to activate their pairing mode. Here are a few examples to guide you.

TIP:

For more additional devices, check our guide on Put ZigBee Devices into Paring Mode, or refer to their manuals.
