At higher wattages, these load types have significant in-rush current which can trip the protection circuitry on the device. At low wattages, some CFL and LED loads will not be able to completely shut o. (2) In both cases, the quality and performance of these load types varies greatly from manufacturer to manufacturer. When using these load types, we recommend testing in advance. If problems are found, simply changing to a dierent bulb manufacturer may solve the problem.(3) Additionally, we do not recommend the use of fluorescent, CFL, or LED loads without a neutral wire connected to the dimmer due to the capacitive nature of these load types.Warnings and ConsiderationsWARNING!

Using this product in a manner other than outlined in this document voids your warranty. Further, Control4 is NOT liable for any damage incurred with the misuse of this product. See “Troubleshooting.”IMPORTANT! Do NOT use a power screwdriver to install this device. If you do, you may overtighten the screws and strip them. Also, overtightening the screws may interfere with proper button operation.IMPORTANT! This is an electronic device with intricate components. Handle and install with care!Installation Instructions1 Ensure that the location and intended use meet the following criteria:• Do not exceed the load capacity requirements of the dimmer. In multi-gang installations, a reduction of the dimmers’ capacity is required to allow the dimmers to be installed side-by-side. Refer to the load ratings in the specifications above for details.• Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.• The range and performance of the wireless control system is highly dependent on the following: (1) distance between devices; (2) layout of the home; (3) walls separating devices; and (4) electrical equipment located near devices.2 If installing in a multi-gang scenario, use pliers to remove the inner-side breakaway tabs. Bend each tab back and forth until it breaks o. Remove the inner-side tabs ONLY on any device side that will be adjacent to another device. DO NOT remove tabs on any side that will become the outer side of a group of devices.WARNING! To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, turn OFF local electrical power before installing this product.3 Turn o the local electrical power by either switching o the circuit breaker or removing the fuse from the fuse box. To ensure the wires do NOT have power running to them, use an inductive voltage detector.WARNING! As with any electrical device, improper use or installation can cause SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH. It is important that you understand the particular wiring configuration of your installation before proceeding. NOTE: The wallbox wiring shown in this document is an example. Your wire colors and functions may dier. If you are not sure which wires are the Hot, Neutral, Load, Traveler, and Ground wires, have a trained electrician perform the installation.4 Prepare each wire. Wire insulation should be stripped back 5/8 of an inch from the wire end (see Figure 1).Figure 1. Strip Wire Insulation5 Identify your wiring application, and then see the appropriate wiring diagram in the “Sample Wiring Configurations” section below.WARNING! Ground the keypad in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC) requirements. DO NOT rely solely upon the yoke plate’s contact with a metal wallbox for adequate grounding. Use the keypad’s ground wire to make a secure connection to the safety ground of the electrical system.IMPORTANT! Not grounding this product according to the preceding may result in an installation less immune to damage caused by electrical disturbances, such as ESD or lightning, and may void the warranty.6 Identify and connect the dimmer wires to the wallbox wires using the wire nuts.IMPORTANT! The yellow wire is not a traditional traveler. It cannot directly power a lighting load. It must be used only to connect to a Control4 Auxiliary Keypad. See “Sample Wiring Configurations.”NOTE: Wallbox wires can dier depending upon how the box was wired by your electrician.7 Fit the wires back into the wallbox. Bend the wires in a zigzag pattern so that they easily fold into the wallbox (Figure 2).Figure 2. Bend the Wires8 If you are using a Control4 push-on (screwless) wall plate: a. Align the dimmer to the wallbox (the load rating label should be at the bottom) and fasten it with screws. Tighten the screws until the back side of the yoke plate is even with the wall surface, but no further. Overtightening can warp the dimmer and cause mechanical malfunction.TIP: In multi-gang installations, leave the screws that attach the dimmer to the wallbox slightly loose until the faceplate’s sub-plate is attached to all the devices. This allows all devices in the multi-gang box to be aligned before securing them to the wallbox. See the Control4 Faceplate Installation Guide for details. b. Install the Control4 Faceplate following the instructions in the Faceplate Installation Guide.9 If you are using a Decora-style screw-on wall plate: a. Align the dimmer to the wallbox and fasten it with screws. b. Tighten the screws until the back side of the yoke plate is even with the wall surface but no further. Overtightening can warp the dimmer and cause mechanical malfunction. c. Fasten the faceplate to the dimmer with screws.10 Turn ON power at the circuit breaker or replace the fuse from the fuse box.Operation and ConfigurationOn initial power up, all LEDs on the dimmer will illuminate green indicating that the device has power. To set up this dimmer for use with a Control4 system, refer to the Composer Pro User Guide. To operate this dimmer as a stand-alone device:• Click the top button to turn the light on.• Click the bottom button to turn the light o.
™• Press and hold the top button to ramp the light up. Release the button at the desired light level.• Press and hold the bottom button to fade the light down. Release the button at the desired light level.Air Gap SwitchDuring routine lamp replacement, remove power from the lamp by engaging the air gap mechanism. To engage, press on the right side of the top actuator bar until the left side pops out. All LEDs on the dimmer will turn o and the dimmer will no longer control the light when the air gap mechanism has been engaged. Button Tap SequencesThe button tap sequences are defined in the table below. Button tap sequences that require a single (1) button should use the top-most button installed on the dimmer. Button tap sequences requiring two (2) buttons should use the top-most and bottom-most buttons installed on the dimmer.Function Sequence ButtonIdentify 4ZigBee Channel 7Reboot 15Factory Reset 9-4-9Leave Mesh and Reset 13-4-13TroubleshootingIf the light does not turn on:• Ensure at least one LED on the face of the dimmer is lit.• Ensure the light bulb is not burned out and is screwed in tightly.• Ensure that the circuit breaker is not turned OFF or tripped.• Check for proper wiring (see “Sample Wiring Configurations”). • For help on the installation or operation of this product, email or call the Control4 Technical Support Center. Please provide your exact model number. Contact support@control4.com or see the web site www.control4.com.Care and Cleaning• Do NOT paint the dimmer or its wall plate.• Do NOT use any chemical cleaners to clean the dimmer.• Clean surface of the dimmer with a soft damp cloth as needed.Regulatory/Safety Information To review Regulatory information for your particular Control4 products, see the information located on the Control4 website at: http://www.control4.com/regulatory/.Patent InformationProtected under U.S. Patents 7,106,261, 7,336,463 and licensed under U.S. Patents 5,905,442 and 5,982,103.WarrantyFor complete warranty information, including details on consumer legal rights as well as warranty exclusions, review the Warranty card or visit www.control4.com/warranty.Figure 5.
