Hi all.

I've recently installed a varilight v-pro dimmer and have that working fine, but I'm confused.

Is there a general, what is supla video or page? What else should I be doing with it?
How do I add other users to my account, or do they need their own to control the lights.
I want add a smart switch for external lights, varilight don't appear to do a smart switch, only dimmers, what other brands can I use?

Thanks,

Mark.

There is no online manual.
If you need to know something, ask here.
For other users, simply enter the same email address in the settings.
The list of supported devices is here: https://www.supla.org/en/devices

Thanks, how would I go about adding a normal on/off switch?

For information I want to wire a switch and sensor in parallel so I can use exterior lights in a manner that they are on between set times then on sensor during the night.

You need to use an additional module, e.g. mROW-02

Thanks for that, they seem difficult to get a hold of in the UK. I assume these modules are installed inside the varilight products, therefore would it be ok to use a varilight 2 gang smart socket wired to a 6am breaker to then supply outside lights? Using a plug isn't an issue as it'll all be hidden.

I think these modules are available in the UK. As for Varilight devices other than V-Pro, I have no knowledge.
