Abstract
A multiway switching device may comprise a wireless device in communication with a relay and a manual switch of the device. A toggle state of the relay may be indicative of an electrical configuration between conductors and rectifier circuits of the multiway switching device. The wireless device may receive, from the manual switch or from an external device, a signal indicative of a modification to the toggle state of the relay. Based on the signal, the wireless device may cause the modification to the toggle state of the relay. The wireless device may cause output of a status signal indicative of the modification to the toggle state of the relay.
