# Does the SAL PIXIE timer *STC/BT* require a PIXIE switch or dimmer to operate?

Yes and the timer devices need to be paired with a SAL Pixie master device to operate.

[Here is the instruction manual for the STCBT](https://pixiepartners.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/SAL-Pixie-Timer-Control-stc-bt-installation-instruction.pdf)

The PIXIE range also has a dedicated Smart Timer Switch - [more information can be found here](https://pixiepartners.com.au/product/sal-pixie-push-button-smart-time-switch-sts350bt/).
