Decor’s cabinet switches all use the constant driver. It is recommended that you have a plug with constant power to use with a cabinet switch. You don’t want to turn off the plug with a wall switch. So, cabinet switches will not require an electrician unless you need to wire a new 110 plug. All cabinet box switches will plug into either a 6-way distributor with switch or the 6-way distributor with switch app. Whatever lights you have plugged into the 6-way distributor with switch (or app) will be controlled by the switch.
OPTION 1: WAVE SWITCH
The wave switch can be installed in the bottom of a cabinet side or panel. You wave your hand in front of the sensor to turn the light on or off. If you hold your hand in front of the sensor, then it will dim the light up or down.
OPTION 2: MOTION SWITCH
Decor offers two motion switches that can be installed in the bottom of a cabinet side or panel. The light will turn on once you walk in front of the motion sensor. The light will stay on depending on the time delay you select (30s/60s/180s/5m/15m/30m). If you walk pass the sensor before the time expires, then it will reset the time.
OPTION 3: DOOR SWITCH
Another option will be the door switch option. When you open the door, then the light turns on. If you close the door, then the light turns off. A 2 door wide cabinet will require a door sensor switch for each door, so a multiswitch box will be supplied to connect the 2 door switched together. You connect each door sensor switch at the front of the multiswitch box and then run the lighting wires to the back of the multiswitch.

OPTION 4: TOUCH SENSOR
The touch sensor switch can be installed in a cabinet side or panel. The light will turn on or off when you touch the location of the touch sensor switch. If you hold your hand at this location, then the light will dim up or down. Keep in mind that because you must touch the physical cabinet that the finish can rub off over time. I would recommend the wave switch or motion switch over the touch sensor switch for that reason. Also, we use a sticker on the inside of the cabinet box to hide the touch sensor switch.
