Smart Lighting with Tuya
Product Information: The SSC-LUXon smart lighting system
allows users to control their lights using the Smart Life app or a
voice assistant such as Amazon Alexa or Google Home. The system is
compatible with both Android and iOS devices. It is important to
note that the smart lights require a 2.4 GHz WLAN connection, as
operation with Tuya is not possible in 5.0 GHz mode. The range of
the Wi-Fi connection is crucial for the functionality of the smart
lights outdoors. The SSC-LUXon smart light sources comply with
directive 2014/53/EU. Product Usage Instructions: 1.
Installing the Smart Life App: – Visit the Google Play Store
or App Store on your smartphone. – Search for the Smart Life app
and download it. – Open the app and click on “Sign Up”. – Enter
your email address and click on “Get Verification Code”. – Wait for
the verification code to be sent to your email and enter it in the
app. – Choose a secure password for your account. 2. Adding
Light Sources & Lamps in the App: – After registering and
logging into the Smart Life app, click on the plus symbol at the
top right corner. – Select “Add Device”. – In the left-hand menu,

Wi-Fi network from the list and enter the corresponding Wi-Fi
password. Note: It is recommended to couple only 3 lights at
a time during installation to ensure smooth commissioning. However,
more than 3 lights can be installed per circuit, but they should be
set up one after the other (3 lights each).
Setup & quick start for SSC-LUXon smart lighting with Tuya
With the purchase of an SSC-LUXon smart light source, the colourful world of lighting is open to you. To be able to use all functions, a few steps are necessary in advance. On this page, you will find out everything you need to know about setting up and operating the lights and how to connect them to a voice assistant* such as ,,Amazon Alexa” or ,,Google Home”. We hope you enjoy your smart lighting!
! Before you get started, here is an important note: Please ensure that your WLAN is set to 2.4 GHz. Operation with Tuya is not possible in 5.0 GHz mode. You can check this in the settings of your internet router under the item ,,Wi-Fi”.
Information on the use of the smart lighting outdoors: If you want to combine our smart light source with an outdoor light, we recommend that you first configure the light source on the router. Then you can try it out in the garden to see how far the Wi-Fi connection is stable.
Please note that the range of your Wi-Fi connection is crucial for the functionality of the smart light outdoors.
Our SSC-LUXon smart light sources complies with directive 2014/53/EU. You can download the complete text of the EU declaration of conformity as a PDF document on the following page: https://www.led-lichtraum.de/info/doc
* You do not necessarily need a voice assistant to operate the light sources. You can also control the lights directly with your smartphone and the ,,Smart Life” app. However, operation by voice control increases the convenience considerably, as you do not have to pick up your smartphone every time.
