Are the instructions included, and are they fairly comprehensive? I will be using this in the UK, and would not even know what switch setting to use.

Yes. Instructions were included and were easy to read. Might want to include an adapter to compensate for Euro wattage though...

The switched did'nt worked properly for me so I'm not able to answer your question. Sorry.

This switch requires some config as any device for security reason. However the device is pretty much plug and play, i recommend going through the tutorial for common network practices for proper security

Not sure... i havent had much success with these switches, wiring them like one should doesnt always work... may be some of them are faulty internally

Hi Leslie - yeah, these things are kindofa brat to install. It took my electrician several tries before he got it, and the instructions aren't clear. If I remember correctly, your wiring to/from the light needs to have a three wire configuration, where one wire is called the "traveler" wire... it essentially informs the other switch of the state of itself so they are always in sync.If you have an older home, you may be SOL - the wiring may not support this switch type.Rob

It does come with installation instructions but I was still confused, it isn't as simple to install as I thought it would be. I had to call a friend of mine who is experienced in wiring and he had no problem installing the switch. I am pretty handy but this one stumped me.

While I don't own this particular device, I can tell you that my (similar) switch is simply a pass-thru... it doesn't contain the needed circuitry to up/down convert any signals. (I need both optical and RCA cables for my audio).

I have not used it for that application. I have spent a good bit of time learning the functions that it offers. It's basically an on/off switch. You can wire it into anything just as you would a switch. You need to find a place to connect it that has hot, ground, AND neutral. It will not work without a neutral.

Check out the website for this switch. Google it. I believe it documents all the specs.

Double check the instructions for your garage again. I've bought like 5 of these things and they all send out the signal reliably. Why not just set the dipswitches manually to whatever code you have?

I to was confused about wiring of switch. They need to included a drawing of what goes where. I ended up with only two speeds working. Wish I could help you.

Depends on what your aiming for. 3 way switches are a pain, and this will add sone interesting complexity. This is just a simple on off, think of it as a light switch that is light sensitive. Your wiring would have to be complex to compensate.

I use the switches on the KVM. This is not a smart switch. I use it for four computers at work without any issues.

I found the book that came with the unit was very helpful. Another way is looking at the major appliance ratings you are going to use the switch for. Getting it reasonably close will work fine. If you have 2 things that are hooked to 20 amp breakers split them wiring them to the red terminals, etc. Best I can do, hope it helps.

I have no idea. I live in the USA, and only know how it works here. I'm very sorry. I do know that when I accidentally plug too many power hogging devices in, the strip shuts itself off, rather than causing the fuse switch in the basement to shut off, so that saves me a trip down the stairs.

The proper way of wiring this switch and if it needed AC or DC was confusing to me as well. Here's a good picture showing how to wire it with DC: https://www.greenlivingforu.com/sites/default/files/100_2488.JPG

Yes, it comes with instructions on how to switch to different regions. So far I've used it for USA, England and Australia. Works great.
