Relay help

The teach-in mode of your Bosch Smart Home relay is active or the Bosch Smart Home relay is communicating with the Bosch Smart Home controller.

The programming of your Bosch Smart Home Relay was successful or the process has been confirmed.

The teach-in or the process has failed.

To consult the various connection diagrams for your Bosch Smart Home Relay, please refer to the enclosed operating instructions.

No, the Bosch Smart Home Relay does not have to be combined with a switch or push-button. If you want to combine the Relay with a switch or momentary-action switch, this is possible. In this case, you can install the Relay behind the existing switch/button.

The impulse control is designed to control a current impulse relay with a current impulse (adjustable between 0.5, 1 or 2 seconds), e.g. for a staircase light (a push-button is simulated). In the on/off circuit, the Relay outputs the signal until the next actuation (a switch is simulated).

The Bosch Smart Home Relay is visible in on/off mode in Apple HomeKit. Unfortunately, this is not possible in pulse mode, as the status of the controlled device is not clearly known. In pulse mode, the Bosch Smart Home Relay only sends out a short power surge; this pulse is then processed by another device. Whether and how the pulse was processed cannot be interpreted by the Bosch Smart Home Relay.

However, a Bosch Smart Home Door/window contact II may help you to get a reliable jam message in Apple HomeKit.

The Relay is factory set to ON/OFF mode and configured for an ON/OFF switch. Therefore, if you connect a push-button, current will only flow as long as you keep the push-button pressed.

When pairing with the HOME Controller, you can then select the optimum configuration for you in the pairing wizard.

Values of 0.5, 1 and 2 seconds can be set during teach-in. Under the device settings (More--> Devices --> corresponding Relay), you can also set the values 3, 4, 5,...20 seconds after teach-in.

We will shortly be providing an accessory that will enable you to install the Relay in the existing flush-mounted box to save space.

The accessories can also be combined with rockers and frames from a large number of switch series from well-known brand manufacturers.

To reset the Bosch Smart Home Relay to the factory settings, press and hold the system button until the status LED flashes orange quickly. Briefly release the system button and press again until the LED lights up green. The Bosch Smart Home Relay will now restart. Please note that it may take a few seconds before the Bosch Smart Home Relay is ready for operation again.

Alternatively, the following procedure is also possible: In the installed state with the push-button connected:

Press the button 6 times within a maximum period of 10 seconds.

If the rest was successful, the connected light source flashes briefly once again.

The device then restarts.

To register the device again, you must first delete it in the Smart Home APP.

The Relay has lost the connection to the Smart Home controller. If there is no loss of connection, the Relay may be defective, in which case please contact our Service.

Potential-free means that the Bosch Smart Home Relay opens and closes a contact in the connected circuit. The Relay works like a conventional ON/OFF switch, which only interrupts or briefly closes the circuit (push-button). The Realis becomes "smart" when it is controlled via the Bosch Smart Home APP and integrated into scenarios and automations.

The device itself requires a power supply of 230V/50Hz for operation, but AC circuits with lower voltages and DC circuits can also be connected to the potential-free output (up to 24 volts at max. 8 amps)

The use of an external switch is optional. All necessary functions (e.g. reset to factory settings or start pairing mode) are also possible using the system button on the device

This function has not yet been implemented at system level. We are currently working on implementing this function and it is expected to be made available with the next update.

You can use the potential-free Relay to switch almost any circuit or generate a current pulse for control devices. You can use the potential-free Relay to switch almost any circuit or generate a current pulse for control devices. This makes it possible, for example, to control the garden irrigation system or the garage door button smartly.

Your Bosch Smart Home Relay can also be used outdoors if you use it in a suitable protective housing (e.g. IP66).

You can only control one circuit at a time. However, you can integrate several devices into this circuit up to the power limit specified on the rating plate.

As the Bosch Smart Home Relay is a potential-free contact, it is not possible to measure the energy consumption.

The Bosch Smart Home Relay uses the ZigBee 3.0 radio protocol and also serves as a range extender for other ZigBee 3.0 devices.

Light/shutter control II supplies connected devices with 230V/50Hz up to a power of 500W per channel. However, the Relay only interrupts the existing circuit of a device that is supplied with mains power or another voltage source.
