EVERYDAY FAN CONTROL
Comfort, with controls close at hand.
BEFORE YOU CHOOSE
Start with the right AC motor.
Have a qualified electrician check the actual motor, supply, load and wiring. Fan and light outputs serve different purposes and must not be swapped.
Fan circuit
One compatible single-phase AC fan ≤200 W. No parallel motors.
Light circuit
Independent on/off ≤200 W; no dimming.
Motor compatibility
For compatible traditional AC motors, including PSC. No DC variable-speed fans or built-in remote/smart speed controllers.
Starting conditions
Recommended motor load >15 W and starting setting >10%. Verify reliable starting; do not test speed control without a motor connected.
Wall box
Depth >38 mm plus wiring space; EU fixing 60 mm / US 83 mm. Follow the selected drawing.
LCD FAN CONTROL
Fan speed and light, separately controlled.
Use fan-only or fan-and-light control to suit your installation, and customise three speed shortcuts. Images below show real device interfaces.
Use the LCD panel to control a compatible AC fan and recall a saved speed.
Select a tab to explore the interface. Actual setup takes place on the device or app; speed settings are not measured motor RPM.
PERSONALISE YOUR DISPLAY
Choose the display that feels right.
Choose a theme, adjust screen brightness in device settings and set the display orientation to match the installation. This model does not support proximity wake.
L8 · Themes
A display that suits your room.
Choose among five supplied screen themes. Theme colours change the interface, not the connected lamp colour or fan performance.
- Five screen themes
L8 · EDGE LIGHTING
A softer glow. Even at rest.
Let the panel edge breathe and change colour while idle, or choose a colour of your own. The decorative edge light is separate from the controlled lights or appliance.
EXPLORE THE GLOW
Automatic breathing & colour changes
Let the edge light fade gently in and out as its colour changes. Automatic mode takes care of the colours for you.
Light when you want it.
Set the edge light and its time settings on the device. These controls preview the effect on this page; they do not configure a switch.
YOUR SPEED PRESETS
Three shortcuts. Your own settings.
Set each preset within the 1%–100% control range. The examples show selected shortcut buttons, not fixed low/medium/high RPM. Actual speed and reliable starting depend on the connected motor.
Set it once. Recall it when needed.
Adjust each shortcut in the device's preset-speed settings. Fan control uses TRIAC regulation; some compatible motors may produce a slight hum at lower settings.
SMART LIVING
Keep fan control within reach.
Use Smart Living for fan control, schedules and energy information. Connected features require setup, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi and available network services. Screenshot figures illustrate the interface.
WI-FI MESH
L8 series. Different controls, one Mesh.
Mix compatible L8 switches in one network: 7-in-1, 4-in-1, dimmer, fan and water heater controls. Switches connect through neighbouring nodes, so each switch does not need a direct Wi-Fi connection to the router.

Configure the first switch where the router signal is good. The system automatically sets this first configured switch as the master.
Add the other switches
Complete setup for the other compatible switches. Keep adjacent Mesh switch nodes no more than 8 metres apart.
Let switches form the network
The switches automatically form their Mesh network. Any compatible switch can serve as the master when configured first; a separate gateway or host is not required.
L8 switches form a network within the L8 series; it does not extend household Wi-Fi for phones or computers. Remote app and cloud features still require the router, internet access and available services.

FAN & LIGHT COMPATIBILITY
Use the right load on each output.
Compatible AC fan
For a compatible traditional single-phase AC ceiling, exhaust or wall fan within 200 W. Check that the specific motor supports the switch's TRIAC speed-control method and starts reliably at the chosen setting.
Independent lighting
The relay light output supports compatible LED, incandescent or CFL lighting within 200 W. It switches power only; it does not dim or control motor speed.
Do not connect
DC variable-speed fans, fans with built-in remote receivers or smart speed controllers, parallel fan motors, over-rated loads, or non-lighting high-power appliances on the light output. Do not swap fan and light outputs.
INSTALLATION
Check the motor and wiring first.
- Have a qualified electrician isolate the supply and verify live and neutral wires.
- Confirm one compatible AC motor, its starting conditions, fan load and the separate lighting load.
- Check the wall box and fixing points. Obtain the current model-specific wiring instructions and match them to the actual terminal markings; never swap the fan and light outputs.
- Secure the unit and panel, inspect all connections, then restore power and verify safe starting and operation throughout the required speed range.
