Leviton Manufacturing Co. Inc. VRMX1 Manuale Utente

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

• TO AVOID FIRE, SHOCK, OR DEATH; TURN OFF POWER AT CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE AND TEST THAT THE POWER IS OFF BEFORE WIRING

• To be installed and/or used in accordance with electrical codes and regulations.

• If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult an electrician.

• Use ONly with the appropriate Advance Transformer 120V Mark 10™ Powerline or Lutron Tu-Wire

electronic ballasts for controlling the specific fluorescent lamps in Fluorescent Mode.

• To avoid overheating and possible damage to this device and other equipment, do not install to control a receptacle, 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 retrofitting Mark 10™ Powerline dimming ballasts into fixtures that originally had Instant Start ballasts, the sockets MUST be replaced with Rapid Start sockets to allow proper

dimmer operation and prevent damage to the dimmer ballast. Refer to the instructions provided with the ballast.

• Vizia RF +

dimmers are not compatible with standard 3-way or 4-way switches. They must be used with compatible Vizia +

Vizia RF +

controllers for multi-location dimming.

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

• 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.

• Fluorescent lamps must be burned in at full intensity for 100 hours prior to dimming for proper dimming performance. Use only one (1) Vizia RF +™ Incandescent/Magnetic Low Voltage

or Fluorescent Dimmer in a multi-location circuit with up to 9 coordinating remotes (without LEDs) or up to 4 matching remotes (with LEDs). The remote(s) will turn the load on (“at the

level selected” for dimmers only) at the control.

• 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.

• Use this device WITH COPPER OR COPPER ClAD WIRE ONly.

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.

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 device may include color options. To change color of the face

proceed as follows:

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.

MAXIMUM BUlB WATTAGE

Mark 10™ Powerline dimmers are rated in Volt-Amps (VA). The maximum

bulb wattage is determined by the efficiency of the Mark 10™ Powerline

ballast. The following table shows the maximum number of ballasts that can

be connected to a single dimmer for different Mark 10™ Powerline ballasts.

Also note that the table shows maximum ballasts for multi-gang installations.

lutron Tu-Wire®:

To determine total ballast load, add the line current found on the ballast label

for all ballasts in the circuit. This will indicate the total load for the control.

INTRODUCTION

Leviton’s Vizia RF +

components are designed to communicate with

each other via Radio Frequency (RF) to provide remote control of your

lighting. Using RF technology allows Leviton to provide the greatest

signal integrity possible. Each module in Leviton’s

Vizia RF +

component line is a Z-Wave

enabled device. In a

Z-Wave

network, each device is designed to act as a router. These

routers will re-transmit the RF signal from one device to another until

the intended device is reached. This ensures that the signal is received

by its intended device by routing the signal around obstacles and radio

dead spots. The Scene Capable Incandescent/Magnetic Low Voltage

or Fluorescent Dimmer is compatible with any Z-Wave

enabled

network, regardless of the manufacturer and can also be used with

other devices displaying the Z-Wave

logo.

CAUTION:

Remember to exercise good common sense when using the Timer

features of your remote, especially when scheduling unattended

devices. There can be some unexpected consequences if not used

with care. For example, an empty coffee pot can be remotely turned

on. If that should happen, your coffee pot could be damaged from

overheating. If an electric heater is turned on by remote control while

clothing is draped over it, a fire could result. DO NOT USE the remote

for the control of high power heating appliances such as portable

heaters. This device will not control lighting that is used with electronic

low-voltage and high frequency power supply transformers, nor high

pressure discharge lamps (HID lighting). This includes mercury-vapor,

sodium vapor and metal halide lamps.

• Soft fade ON/OFF

• Scene capable

• ON/OFF LED and Brightness level LED

• Two way communication

• RF reliability

• Ease of installation – No new wiring

• Compatible with other Z-Wave

enabled devices
