Next way to control the lights is to control them via keypads. Keypads are simply switches having only push buttons, only touch panel display or a combination of display or push buttons like Schneider Electric’s 5085EDLB-OM, 5084NL-PW, 5085EDLW-PW etc. Keypads come in different variant like in 2 buttons, 4 buttons, 5 buttons etc.

Functions that these keypad buttons can operate are- on/off, dimming, impulse on/off, delay on/off etc. As far as display is concerned, we can customize their label according to our needs.
