Installation Instructions Ensure that the location and intended use meet the following criteria: DO (OK, Normal) • • • Wireless Dimmer Installation and User Guide Supported Models and Fixtures This installation and user guide covers these dimmer models: LDZ-101-W Wireless Dimmer (802.15.4) LDZ-101-B Wireless Dimmer (802.15.4) LDZ-101-A Wireless Dimmer (802.15.4) This dimmer can operate independently or as a device you can control with your Control4 system. The dimmer installs in a standard wall box using typical wiring standards and it communicates to the Control4 system using a wireless connection. The dimmer supports: • • • • • To reduce the risk of serious injury or death, turn all power OFF before installing this product. 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 “Limited 1 Year Warranty” on page 6. This product generates heat. The room must have adequate ventilation or heat dissipation ability. Do NOT use this device to control a device with a nondimmable load. You should only use it with devices that have dimmable feature support. • • • If installing a multi-unit dimmer, Do NOT continue until you have read “Multi-Unit Installations” on page 2. Do NOT use where total wattage is under 25 watts. Do NOT exceed maximum load rating of dimmer (which is 1000W for a single unit, if both side tabs are in tact). To avoid injury or death, turn OFF local electrical power. To turn off the power, either switch off the circuit breaker or remove the fuse from fuse box. To ensure the wires do NOT have power running to them, use an inductive voltage detector. Use screwdriver to remove wall plate and existing switch from wall. Detach existing dimmer or switch. WARNING! 120 Volt incandescent (all types) 120 Volt halogen (all types) 120 Volt magnetic low voltage (all types with 70 percent or greater load factor) 120 Volt electronic low voltage (dimmable only) 120 Volt fluorescent light fixtures (dimmable only) WARNING! Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes. Wall box size required depends on your wiring. The dimmer alone needs a depth of 2.5 inches. To calculate the total depth required, add 2.5 inches to the amount of space recommended in the NEC (National Electric Code) for your configuration. The range and performance of the control system is highly dependent on the following: • Distance between devices • Layout of the home • Walls separating devices • Electrical equipment located near devices DON’T As with any appliances, improper use or installation can cause SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH. Do NOT attempt the installation if you are NOT sure which wires are the hot and load wires in the wall box. Instead, have a trained electrician do the installation. The existing dimmer or switch is wired in one of three ways: terminal screws, backwire, or wire nuts. OR OR Terminal Screws: Backwire: Wire Nuts: Use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws to release the wire. Insert screwdriver in Wire Release slot and pull out wire. If this does not work, use a wire cutter to cut the wire. Turn to remove wire nuts from existing wiring. Control4 Wireless Dimmer Installation and User Guide 5 IMPORTANT: IMPORTANT: The National Electric Code (NEC) requires 6 inches of extended wire from the wall box. If your wiring does not meet this requirement, you will not meet code. Do NOT cut wire shorter than 6 inches. When installing this product in a commercial application or metal wall box, you might need to ground it to the wall box. If you are using the Control4 snap-on- style wall plate, snap it over the dimmer now. 10 Turn ON power at the circuit breaker or replace fuse from fuse box. 11 Test the dimmer to see if it is working properly. For details, see “Operation and Configuration” on page 5. Troubleshooting If light does not turn on: • • • • Ensure light bulb is not burned out. Ensure light bulb is screwed in tightly. Ensure circuit breaker is not turned OFF or tripped. Check for proper wiring (see the subsections beginning on page 3). Multi-Unit Installations Connect the dimmer wires to the wall box wires using wire nuts. Wall box wires can differ depending upon how the box was wired by your electrician and where the power source comes from—the light fixture or the wall box. Refer to the following four sections (beginning on page 3): • • • • Prepare and identify all wires. Identify the wires in your wall box. Straighten the wire ends. With a wire cutter, cut off the bare wire just below the plastic insulation on all wires. Use a wire stripper to strip off about 3/8-inch of the insulation. Multi-unit installations allow you to install one stand-alone dimmer next to another in the same wall box. Remove Inner Sides When using multiple units in a wall box, you must remove the inner sides, leaving the outer sides in place. Use pliers to bend a tab back and forth until it comes off. Remove only the sides that will touch another dimmer. Do not remove sides that will become outer sides. “Single-Switch Environment—Power Source at Wall Box” “Single-Switch Environment—Power Source at Light Fixture” “3-Way-Switch Environment—Power Source at Wall Box” “3-Way-Switch Environment—Power Source at Light Fixture” Fit wires back into the wall box. Bend the wires in a zigzag pattern so that they easily fold into the wall box. Push the dimmer into place. Adjust the dimmer so that it is perpendicular to the floor. Tighten the two screws that hold it in position in the wall box. Resulting Capacity • • • With both sides intact (single unit), the capacity is 1000W maximum. If you remove one side, the capacity is reduced to 800W maximum. If you remove two sides, the capacity is reduced to 600W maximum. Align dimmer to wall box and fasten with screws, unless you are using a Decora screwon-style wall plate. If you are using a screw-on-style wall plate, before fastening with screws, you must first align the wall plate with the dimmer and the wall box.
