Lotus Kit Setup Guide

For the Ring

1. Using the provided charging cable, connect your Ring Charging Platform to the wall plug and plug it into a wall socket.
2. Place the Ring onto the raised post of the Charging Platform, aligning the metal charging contacts inside the Ring with those on the post. Magnets will guide the Ring into the correct position for charging and you’ll feel it snap into place.
3. While charging, the red light (visible inside the black band) will blink every few seconds. Your ring is fully charged when the red light stays steady.

For the Switch Cover

When you first open your Lotus kit, the switch covers may flash different color lights when pressed. This means “low on power” (low power, so restarting) and needs to be recharged.

Even if this does not occur, we strongly recommend that you charge your Ring and the Switch covers once for an hour before using it the first time.

1. Using the provided charging cable, connect your Switch Cover to the wall plug and plug it into a wall socket.
2. You’ll see a green light inside the Switch Cover – this simply means that the Switch Cover is successfully connected to power.
3. While charging, a small yellow light will blink every few seconds. When the blinking is replaced by the yellow light staying steady, the Switch Cover is done charging.

Put on the Ring

The button is located roughly a finger-width from the black IR band and identified via creases in the rings outer casing. The button should be on the side of your index finger that is closest to your thumb when the IR band is aligned with your knuckle. There is a thin raised line marking the bottom portion of the button, farthest from the IR band.

We will also be providing a silicone bumper that you may stick to the button to make it easier to identify.

Snap on the Switch Cover

The magnets on the back of the Lotus Switch Cover will align with the screws on the existing wall switch plate. Hold the Switch Cover in front of the switch plate and allow it to snap in place. 

Press the manual button on the front of the Switch Cover. If it activates the switch that means it is properly aligned. When pressing manually, the yellow LED light within the Switch Cover will flash briefly, followed by the blue LED light when the switch is activated.

• You can also “manually” use the switch by pressing it near the “scoop”
• You can rotate the switch “upside down” and it’ll still work both “manually” and via the ring

Point-and-click

Ensure that you have line of sight with the switch and there are no physical obstacles in front of you. We suggest making a “thumbs up” gesture in the direction of the wall switch, with the black IR band on the Lotus Ring directly facing it.

Gently click the button with your thumb (alternatively, a finger from the opposing hand or assistive device). Use the same gesture of click-and-release- that you would with your television remote. Do not use a swiping motion on the button or hold it down with extra force.

When you click the button on the Ring, the red LED light in the IR band will flash. And once the Switch Cover is activated, the blue LED light within the Switch Cover will flash.

Switch Covers are NOT required to turn your TV on and off with the Lotus Ring.

Follow the same steps you use to activate a wall switch with the Lotus Ring. Just make sure the Ring’s IR band is pointed toward your TV—just like aiming the top end of a remote.

Double click the button on your Lotus Ring to turn the TV on and off.
