Friends of Hue - How do I ensure that my Hue lamp can always be controlled with the Niko dimmer switch for the Hue system, even when the physical switch is off?
In order to ensure that your Hue lamp can always be controlled with the Niko dimmer switch for the Hue system (but also with the Hue app), you must ensure that the Hue lamp remains powered at all times. This is done by connecting the switch wires together e.g. with a plug-in terminal.
