Why
Pairing the battery-powered button to the right light ensures that, once paired, residents then have a simple way to turn that light on or off. A peripheral, in this case the wireless push button interface, must first be paired via the Nobi light in order to function properly.
Pair via the Nobi mobile app
Pairing the wireless push button interface is done through the Nobi mobile app. Pairing is easy. Just follow the wizard to complete the connection. The switch should be physically near the light during the process.
