# How to create a 2-WAY Switching Automation on the Lightwave Link Plus App?

## This article provides a step-by-step guide on setting up a 2-way switching automation using the Lightwave Link Plus App. Perfect for users who want to control a single light from two separate Lightwave Smart Dimmers, this automation ensures seamless, synchronized control. Learn how to pair your devices, configure the automation rules, and troubleshoot common issues for smooth and efficient operation.

After completing the wiring, you’ll need to automate your devices through the app so that when one smart dimmer is activated, the other responds accordingly.
