- Flexible Control③: The 2 buttons on the left are designed as electrical switches (controlling wired loads), users can configure the device through Aqara Home and control it through switches. The 2 buttons on the right are wireless switches, and the 4 buttons can be used as wireless switches at the same time or directly used as customised scene triggers.
- Zigbee with Matter over Bridge④Support: With Matter over Bridge Support, it can integrate the switch with other third-party ecosystem such as Apple Home, Amazon Alexa, Google Home, Samsung SmartThings, Home Assistant and Homey. With Zigbee, it can be used as a Zigbee repeater to maintain stable communication among sub-devices, and has ultra-low standby power consumption, reducing electricity costs.
- Proximity Activation⑤: Built-in presence sensor, the switch allowing users to trigger the screen based on distance. The switch’s default automation allows users to set automation according to their preferences when someone approaches, bringing users a convenient experience.
