# Can I use PIXIE switches and dimmers without Bluetooth control?

Yes, the PIXIE range of switches and dimmers will function as a normal device without Bluetooth connectivity.

So the PIXIE Dimmers will operate from the wall as a dimmer would. For example:

- Press once to turn on
- Press and hold to dim down
- Release, press and hold to dim up
- Press once to turn off

This is true for all PIXIE master devices including dimmers, switches and timers.

Likewise for PIXIE Multifunction Controllers ( used for 2way control or scene switches) - these devices use Bluetooth mesh in the home - without needing an App or Internet - to communicate to the PIXIE Master devices which actually control the connected load ( lights, fans, appliances etc.)

This way home owners always have the ability to control their lights and other PIXIE controlled devices directly from the wall - no matter the state of their mobile device's battery or internet status.
