Osram lightify without gateway. After you start pairing and the light blinks go back one page and you should see a not yet configred device which should be the bulb. The center piece of the lightify system is the gateway which connects to the local wifi router and at the same time transfers the signal further to all products that work with lightify or are lightify compatible. Osram lightify is a certified member of the zigbee alliance and hence uses the open standard for light control. The only part i dont like is that if there is some kind of security bug there isnt an easy way to update the firmware without the gateway. On the home screen of the lightify app click on get started and scan the qr code or enter the serial number both of which are located at the back of the lightify gateway. We have packed for you all important information and questions about our system in our faqs.

Once you are connected to the lightify gateway you can start the app as usual. Now you can connect directly to the lightify gateway with your smart device ssid and password are listed on the back of your gateway. When you are in pairing zigbee items like these the st interface isnt always very useful. Here you can find an overview of all affected functions. Add your credentials like name email id and password with min 6 characters and then click on create my accountyou will receive an activation code to your email id.

As the lightify system is a cloud based system the majority of functions will unfortunately be lost and lightify app control will be only very limited. Osram lightify is a certified member of the zigbee alliance and hence uses the open standard for light control. Nice thing is those bulbs will still work just fine without the gateway. However until then you can use your lightify system without limitations. I have 3 different lightify products about 10 bulbsstrips total and all paired without an issue. The only small quirk with a lightify bulb is that you need to search for the bulb with the app and then turn on the bulb once its searching.

The gateway wi fi wlan will appear for about 60 seconds after connection and will be shown in the list of available networks. I got a lightify bulb the other day and it works perfectly with hue without a gateway.
