This article will walk you through how to setup your Ilumin (Inovelli) multi-color (RGBW) smart bulb with your Samsung SmartThings Hub. For more advanced features such as Device Handler Installation, please see the recommended articles below.
As of February 23, 2020, SmartThings is transitioning its users to the new SmartThings App and the Classic App will be phased out. Therefore our instructions will only be available for the new app.
Installing a Device Handler (Recommended)
For optimal performance and to access all the advanced features, you'll want to install our custom device handler. We recommend you do this first, but you can definitely do it after you pair your bulb. We wanted to keep this article short, so we've created a separate page for installing the handler. It can be found here: LZW42 Device Handler Instructions
Pairing (Inclusion) Steps
NOTE: The below directions assume you have not installed the device handler prior to pairing.
Disconnect power from the bulb
Open your SmartThings App
Press the (+) button at the top right of the screen
Click on, "Device"
Click, "Scan" at the top right of the screen
Restore power to the bulb - it should blink twice to confirm the bulb is in inclusion/pairing mode
If successful, the bulb should blink once more
In addition, your app will show your bulb
Click back to the main devices tab and look for your bulb!
Excluding (Factory Resetting) the Bulb
Sometimes the bulb will not pair and needs to be factory reset. There are a couple of ways to do this. The first is via the bulb itself, while the second is via the SmartThings App.
Resetting via the Bulb
Power on/off the bulb 6x (between 0.5 - 2 seconds)
Resetting via the SmartThings App
Disconnect power from the bulb
From the home screen, click on the three lines at the top left of your screen to open the menu
Click on the, "Devices" icon
In the search bar, search, "Hub" and select your Hub
Click on the three dots at the top right of the screen and select, "Z-Wave Utilities"
Then press, "Z-Wave Exclusion" and the process will start
Restore power to the bulb - it should blink twice to confirm the bulb is in exclusion mode
If successful, the bulb should blink once more
In addition, the SmartThings app should say that your switch was excluded successfully
