===== General description =====

The discrete light controller LC-8-IQ is HIQ intelligent expansion module primarily used for controlling discrete (non-dimmable) lights. Featuring high power relay output, it can control other consumers too (mains sockets, heaters, fans,..). Module can be used as stand-alone or part of the integrated system, when connected to one of HIQ Home Controller. Many features are available in the stand alone mode, while advanced features like scenes, scheduling, smartphone operation, internet connection are only available when connected to the appropriate Home Controller.
