This switch operates like the hand-held, battery-operated remotes that came with the Minka Aire fans, but uses the hot wire instead of a battery to power the transmitter. Make sure you set the DIP switches for an isolated frequency if you happen to have more than one fan. The Light buttons allow you to toggle and dim (on fans with compatible, dimmable light fixtures). The 5-way D-pad allows you to choose High, Medium or Low fan speeds, stop the fan, and with compatible reversible fans, you can also reverse the fan remotely. There is also a slide switch at the bottom that toggles power to the switch and fan on and off, which seems a little strange, but I suppose it's there to make it more difficult for someone to unintentionally turn the light or fan on when you want it to remain off.
Came with white and biscuit/beige colored cover plates and switch plates. The controller is large and requires a deep box, so make sure you have adequate clearance for installation. In a multi-gang box with lots of wires you might have some trouble squeezing it in.
The original light switch only complicated everything (for the worse). If the light and/or fan were turned off from the remote, the wall switch was useless, plus making the mistake of turning the switch off then made the remote useless and required getting out of bed to turn the switch on in order to use the remote.
Re: complaints about the built-in LED backlight being too bright in a dark, I haven't noticed it. It's possible Minka corrected the problem or some people are much more sensitive to low-level light.
A few reviewers have complained about the two light switches/buttons. We have a Minka-Aire fan in the dining room with two lights (one over and one under the fan blades). The smaller of the two round light buttons on the wall control works the upper light and the larger one works the lower light.
NOTE: I ordered the WCS212 by mistake and was concerned that it might not work with the RCS223 remote and receiver purchased with the fan (Minka-Aire F522-WH, Mojo White 52" Ceiling Fan with Light). Minka-Aire offers two types of remotes, one for a small group of fans with an electrical reverse feature and one for fans that require manual switching to reverse blade directions (which is what the F522 has). When I saw the reverse feature on the WCS212 I called Minka and a (snotty) support person told me I'd purchased the wrong wall control (the card that came with the remote lists the WCS213). I had to interrupt him to ask, "All I want to know is will the WCS212 work with the RCS223?" He finally said that it would but that the reverse feature wouldn't work with my fan (which is what I expected).
Because I didn't have a lot of confidence in the guy's expertise, before opening the packaging I was able to compare the eight (two sets of four) toggle switches with the eight on the remote. Seeing they were exactly the same, I took a shot. Installation took five minutes and it works perfectly.
