100’ of your WiFi network access point.

3. Using 12-15V output from host, connect min. 12-2 low voltage cable to

LCS input terminals.

4. Connect low voltage fixtures to three LCS output zones up to 150W total.

5. Energize host transformer output.

B LCS AND TRANSFORMER CONNECTION DETAIL

1. Confirm host transformer is connected to 120V source, the source is

energized, and its output circuit breaker is on.

2. LCS is a low voltage device. Connect host transformer output to LCS input.

For normal function, LCS input range must be 11-20VAC. CAUTION - Do

not connect line voltage! Controller damage will result and warranty void!

3. Ensure LCS front panel green input power LED is on.

4. With low voltage fixtures disconnected, test LCS output by switching

“ON/OFF/APP” rocker switch to ON. All three LCS green output LED’s

should be on and connected lamps should be on.

5. LCS front panel WiFi LED should be solid green indicating proper

connection to your local WiFi network. Unit will not function without a

strong network connection.

6. Lamps pulsating slowly? Your LCS may be overloaded. In the app, check

above the Zone group for an OVERLOAD indicator in RED. On the LCS

front panel, an amber input power LED will also appear. If either indicator

disappears after setting each Zone to HI or below, reduce load by

removing lamps or reducing their individual wattage.

7. Return switch to APP position for WiFi connected control and operation.

it turns solid RED, then repeat networking steps. Network connection status

is also displayed on the app main Zone screen. If a red cloud with diagonal

line appears below any Zone, refresh screen and /or repeat networking

steps. Still not connected? Perform “forget network” or switch in and out of

“airplane mode” on your device to bring “LCS” to the access point list.

5. Test your local WiFi networking signal strength by connecting your device

to WiFi (disable cellular network), then successfully loading any web page

while standing near the antenna of your LCS. Install WiFi booster/extender

if required.

6. Try the app and/or networking with a different smartphone/tablet. If you

are having issues with Android, try an iOS device, and visa-versa. Isolate

issues by changing the connecting device.

7. Make sure your VISTA CLOUD app and device operating system software

is the latest version from the App Store/Google Play Store. When in

doubt, you can always delete and reinstall the app on your device.

it back in.

9. Power your smartphone/tablet completely off and back on again (reboot).

10. Try Remove Controller after selecting the settings icon ‘gear’ under any

Zone photo within a controller group screen. Re-scan QR code to add,

then refresh device screen for each controller.
