The Leviton DAWSC-1RW is the Anywhere Switch Companion, a wire-free accessory that adds 3-way, 4-way, or 5-way on and off control to any Decora Smart Wi-Fi 2nd Gen primary switch in the D215S series or mini plug-in switch in the D215P series. The companion does not require a neutral wire, a line wire, or any wiring at all. It runs on two AA batteries and communicates wirelessly within 50 feet of the primary device. Mount it to a wall with the included hardware at any location where you want a second control point, such as a staircase top or bottom, a room entry point, or a bedroom location. It pairs to the primary switch through the My Leviton app in seconds. Automatic mode turns off LEDs when no motion is detected.
How do I pair the DAWSC-1RW to a primary switch?
Install and set up the compatible primary Leviton smart switch or plug first, then use the My Leviton app to add and pair the DAWSC companion to that device. The app walks you through linking the companion so it can control the primary wirelessly.
What is the battery life, and how do I replace the batteries?
The DAWSC runs on two AA batteries. Battery life depends on usage frequency, but replacement is straightforward by opening the battery compartment and installing fresh AA cells when needed.
How far can the DAWSC be installed from the primary switch?
Leviton rates the wireless operating distance at up to 50 feet from the paired primary device. Real-world range can vary somewhat depending on walls and building materials.
Does it work with all Decora Smart switches or only 2nd Gen models?
This companion is intended for Decora Smart Wi-Fi 2nd Gen compatible primary controls, specifically the D215S series wall switches and D215P series plug-in switch products. It should not be assumed compatible with every older Decora Smart generation.
What mounting options are supported?
You can mount the DAWSC in a wall box, directly to a flat wall surface, or with the included adhesive mount and screw hardware. That gives you flexibility to place a control where wiring is unavailable or unnecessary.
