For Zigbee mode, add the Orb 4-In-1 to a SONOFF Zigbee gateway (e.g., ZBBridge-P, ZBBridge-U, iHost, NSPanel Pro) to create automations and work with other devices.

For eWeLink-Remote mode, it works with devices that support the eWeLink-Remote Gateway feature (e.g., M5, MINI R4, MINI-RBS, MINI-D) to enable local control at close range.

4.3. TouchLink Pairing (for compatible bulbs)

TouchLink simplifies direct device pairing with smart bulbs that support this feature. To pair:

1. Bring the Orb 4-In-1 button close to your compatible smart bulb (no more than 10 cm away).
2. Press and hold a button on the Orb 4-In-1 until the bulb responds (e.g., flashes or changes brightness), indicating successful pairing.

After pairing, you can control the bulb directly without needing to set up scenes in the app, making it easy for all users.
