The  Zigbee® connected switch, Swiss line operates autonomously with a toggle function when it is not configured into a Niko Home Control installation, or when it is not connected to a wireless smart hub (552-00001) or wireless bridge (550-00640).

Mechanical push-button extensions (170-x00xx) wired to the extension terminal can also be used in stand-alone mode.
All mechanical push-button extensions wired to the same terminal, will show the same behaviour as the connected switch.
