IMPORTANT!
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.
IMPORTANT: la gamme et la performance du système de contrôle sans fil
dépendent hautement de la chose suivante : (1) la distance entre les artifices;
(2) la disposition de la maison; (3) les murs séparant des artifices; et (4)

Installation Instructions
1
Turn power OFF by switching off the circuit breaker or removing the
fuse; test that the power is off before wiring!
2
Ensure Dimmer capacity matches the load requirements. In multi-
Dimmer installations, a reduction of the Dimmer's capacity is
required to allow the Dimmers to be installed side-by-side in the
same wall box. The Dimmer capacity depends on the number
"ganged" in the wall box as follows:
Dimmer installations, a reduction of the Dimmer's capacity is
required to allow the Dimmers to be installed side-by-side in the
same wall box. The Dimmer capacity depends on the number
"ganged" in the wall box as follows:
•
1 gang = 600 W / VA maximum (all breakoff tabs attached)
•
2 gang = 500 W / VA maximum per Dimmer (with one side
of the breakout tabs removed)
•
3 or more gang = 400 W / VA maximum per Dimmer (will all
breakout tabs removed)
If installing in multi-gang scenarios, use pliers to remove the
inner-side break-away tabs: Bend each tab back and forth
until it breaks off. 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.

Prepare wires by removing pre-cut insulation from
the appropriate Dimmer leads. Wire insulation
should be stripped back 5/8” (inch) from the wire
end (as shown).

IMPORTANT!
The blue wire is not a
traditional traveler: It cannot directly power a lighting load. It must only be used
to provide power to another Control4 keypad. If you do not intend to use this
wire, leave it capped. The blue wire is a "switched hot" wire that is connected
internally to the Dimmer's hot wire through the air-gap switch. Power is applied
to the blue wire whenever the air-gap switch is closed. Thus, the blue wire is
used to provide power to downstream keypads in 3-way/4-way scenarios in
order to ensure that all power to the load has been removed when the air-gap
switch is open. See "Sample Wiring Configurations."
IMPORTANT: le fil Bleu n'est pas un voyageur traditionnel : Il ne peut pas
directement le pouvoir une charge prenante. Il doit seulement être utilisé pour
fournir le pouvoir d'un autre pavé numérique Control4. Si vous n'avez pas
l'intention d'utiliser ce fil, le quitter couronné. Le fil bleu est un "" fil chaud
échangé qui est raccordé à l'intérieur au fil chaud du variateur par le
changement de trou aérien. Le pouvoir est appliqué au fil bleu chaque fois que
le changement de trou aérien est fermé. Ainsi, le fil bleu est utilisé pour fournir
le pouvoir d'en aval les pavés numériques dans 3-way/4-way les scénarios
pour garantir que tout le pouvoir de la charge a été enlevé quand le
changement de trou aérien est ouvert. Faites allusion “Sample Wiring
Configurations.”

Mount the Dimmer into the wall box by partially securing the
wall box screws attached to the Dimmer. Ensure that the
word "Top" on the Dimmer frame is facing up. Bend wires in
a zigzag pattern so that they easily fold into the wall box.
