WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
:
•   To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and regulations.
•   If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult a qualified electrician.
•   To avoid overheating and possible damage to this device and other equipment, do not install to control a receptacle, fluorescent lighting, a motor- or a transformer 
operated appliance.
•   Use with magnetic low-voltage transformers, incandescent, or 120V halogen fixtures only. Use a Leviton electronic low-voltage dimmer to control electronic 
(solid state) low-voltage transformers.
•   When magnetic low-voltage circuits are operated at a dim level, with all lamps inoperative, excess current may flow through the transformer. To avoid possible
  transformer failure due to overcurrent, use a transformer that incorporates thermal protection or a fuse at the primary windings.
•   Vizia
TM
 RF dimmers are not compatible with standard 3-way or 4-way switches. They must be used with compatible Vizia
TM
 RF controllers for multi-location dimming.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
:
•    Use only one (1) Vizia
TM
 RF dimmer in a multi-location circuit with up to 9 coordinating Vizia
TM
 remotes without LEDs or Vizia
TM
 RF remotes for multi-location. The remote(s) 
will turn the light on at the brightness level selected at the dimmer.
•   Total minimum load must exceed 40W.
•   Dimmer may feel warm to the touch during normal operation.
•   Recommended minimum wall box depth is 2-1/2".
•   Maximum wire length from dimmer to all installed remotes cannot exceed 300 ft.
•   Disconnect power at circuit breaker or fuse when servicing, installing or removing fixture.
•   Use this device only with copper or copper clad wire. With aluminum wire use only devices marked CO/ALR or CU/AL.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT : For 3-Way applications, note that one of the screw 
terminals from the old switch being removed will usually be a different 
color (Black) or labeled Common. Tag that wire with electrical tape and 
identify as the common (Line or Load) in both the dimmer wall box and 
remote wall box.
For non-standard wiring applications, refer
to Wire Nut and Connector Size Chart

•   Pull off pre-cut insulation from dimmer leads.
•   Make sure that the ends of the wires from the wall box are 
straight 
(cut if necessary).
•   Remove insulation from each wire in the wall box as shown.
•   For Single-Pole Application, go to Step 4a.
•   For 3-Way Coordinating Remote (no LEDs) Application, go to 
Step 4b.
WIRING DIMMER:
Connect wires per WIRING DIAGRAM as follows:
WARNING:
 CONNECT A MAGNETIC LOW-VOLTAGE DIMMER
ONLY TO THE PRIMARY (HIGH-VOLTAGE) SIDE OF A MAGNETIC
LOW-VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER.
•   Green or bare copper wire in wall box to Green dimmer lead.
•   Line Hot wall box wire to Black dimmer lead.
•   Load wall box wire to Red dimmer lead.
•  Line Neutral wall box wire to White dimmer lead.
•   Yellow/Red dimmer lead should have Red insulation label affixed.
 
NOTE: If insulating label is not affixed to Yellow/Red dimmer lead,
  use electrical tape to cover.
•

 FOR MAGNETIC LOW-VOLTAGE APPLICATIONS,
CONNECT DIMMER ONLY TO THE PRIMARY (HIGH-VOLTAGE)
SIDE OF A MAGNETIC LOW-VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER.
NOTE: When using the coordinating remote without LEDs, the 
dimmer can be installed on either the Line or Load side of the 3-way 
circuit.
NOTE: Maximum wire length from dimmer to all installed remotes 
cannot exceed 300 ft.
•   Green or bare copper wire in wall box to Green dimmer lead.
•   Line Hot (common) wall box wire identified (tagged) when 
removing old switch to Black dimmer lead.
•   First Traveler wall box wire to Red dimmer lead 
(note wire color)
This traveler from the dimmer must go to the terminal screw on 
the remote marked “RD”.
•   Remove Red insulating label from Yellow/Red dimmer lead.
•   Second Traveler wall box wire to Yellow/Red dimmer lead 
(note 
wire color). This traveler from the dimmer must go to the terminal 
screw on the remote marked “YL/RD”.
•  Line Neutral wall box wire to White dimmer lead.
 Tools needed to install your Dimmer:
Slotted/Phillips Screwdriver 
Electrical Tape
Pliers 
 
 
Pencil
Cutters 
 
 
Ruler
MULTI-DEVICE APPLICATION
In multi-dimmer installations, the reduction of the dimmer’s capacity
is required. Refer to the chart for maximum load per dimmer.
If installing Dimmer in a single device application, proceed with the 
INSTALLING YOUR DIMMER section. If installing Dimmer in a multi-
device application, proceed as follows:
 Installing Dimmer by itself or with other devices:
Changing the color of your Dimmer:
Your Dimmer includes three color options. The Dimmer ships with the 
White frame attached. To change color of frame, proceed as follows:
Line up tabs and 
press in side to attach
Push in side at 
tab to release
INSTALLING YOUR DIMMER
NOTE: Use check boxes           when Steps are completed.

MAXIMUM BULB WATTAGE
Low-voltage dimmers are rated in Volt-Amps (VA). The maximum bulb 
wattage is determined by the efficiency of the transformer in the low-
voltage lighting system. Transformer efficiencies will vary from different 
manufacturers; consider 80% efficient as average. Use the chart to 
determine maximum bulb wattage for typical transformer efficiency ratings.
