Please Read Before InstallingRF Lamp DimmerHRT-3LD120/127 V~, 50/60 HzInstallation InstructionsOverviewThe HRT-3LD RF Lamp Dimmers are for use withHomeWorks systems. The dimmer is used to providelocal control of table and floor lamps and integrate theminto the HomeWorks system.HRT-3LDImportant NotesCodes: Install in accordance with all local and nationalelectrical codes.Danger: The Lamp Dimmer must not be usedto control equipment which is not visible fromevery control location. It must also not be usedto control equipment which could create haz-ardous situations such as entrapment if operated acci-dentally. Examples of such equipment which must not beoperated by the Lamp Dimmer include (but are not limit-ed to) motorized gates, garage doors, industrial doors,microwave ovens, heating pads, etc. It is the installer’sresponsibility to ensure that the equipment being con-trolled is visible from every control location and that onlysuitable equipment is connected to the Lamp Dimmer.Overheat Damage: To reduce the risk of overheatingand possibly damaging other equipment, do not install to control motor-operated appliances, transformer-sup-plied appliances, or other non-lighting loads.Environment: Ambient operating temperature: 0-40°C, 32-104°F, 0-90% humidity, non-condensing.Indoor use only. It is normal for a Lamp Dimmer to feelwarm to the touch during operation.Lamp Type: Lamp Dimmers are designed for use withincandescent, magnetic low-voltage, and tungsten halo-gen lamps only. Do not use to control fluorescent lamps,touch lamps, or lamps with an integral dimmer. Forlamps with integral 3-way switches, the switch should beset to full on. Lamp Dimmers may not work with diodedlamps (Sylvania Designer 16TM or Philips PAR-16TM).Low-Voltage Applications: Use Lamp Dimmers withmagnetic (core and coil) low-voltage lamps only. Not foruse with electronic (solid-state) low-voltage transformers. Operation of a low-voltage circuit with lamps inoperativeor removed may result in transformer overheating andpremature failure. Lutron strongly recommends the fol-lowing: a. Do not operate low-voltage circuits without operativelamps in place.1b. Replace burned-out lamps as quickly as possible.c. Use transformers that incorporate thermal protection orfused transformer primary windings to prevent trans-former failure due to overcurrent.Load Specifications:Control  Min. Load  Max. LoadHRT-3LD  10 W/VA 300 W/VACleaning: To clean, wipe with a clean damp cloth. DONOT use any chemical cleaning solutions.Cordset: Cordset length is 6 ft. (1.8m).RF Device Placement: RF Lamp Dimmers must belocated within 30 ft. (9m) of an RF Signal Repeater or anRF Processor. Setup: RF Lamp Dimmers cannot be controlled by thesystem until they are addressed and programmed. Seethe HomeWorks Utility online help.
2Status LEDsIndicate light level;glow softly as nightlight when lamp is off1. Find a suitable location for the Lamp Dimmer. Placethe Lamp Dimmer in a convenient and accessiblelocation. Note: Lamp Dimmer must be located within 30 feet ofan RF Signal Repeater or an RF Processor.2. Turn OFF lamp andunplug lamp cord fromreceptacle.3. Plug lamp cordinto back of LampDimmer plug.4. Plug LampDimmer into anystandard wall out-let.DANGER: To avoid risk of electrical shock, donot open, cut cord or rewire the Lamp Dimmer.DANGER: Unplug Lamp Dimmer when chang-ing light bulbs.CAUTION: This is a POLARIZED cord set. Ithas a polarized plug (one blade is wider thanthe other). The polarized plug is not intended tobe mated with nonpolarized outlets (having bothslots the same size). A polarized outlet is intend-ed to mate with a polarized plug in only one way(the longer slot with the wider blade).InstallationLocal OperationTapswitchTap on/offDimming RockerPress to BrightenPress to Dim5. Turn lamp switchON and operateLamp Dimmer.Pressing the Tapswitch on the Lamp Dimmer will alter-nately turn the lights ON and OFF. The ON level will be the level previously set using theDimming Rocker to the right of the Tapswitch. The LEDthat is glowing slightly brighter than the others indicatesthe level to which the lights will turn ON. Press and holdthe top or bottom of the Dimming Rocker to raise orlower the light level. Double-tapping the Tapswitch willturn the lights ON to full. Pressing and holding theTapswitch for 1/2 second (while ON) activates a 10-sec-ond long fade-to-off.
3Setting High /Low-End TrimHigh/Low-End levels may be adjusted with the followingprocedure: a. Press the Dimming Rocker to set the dimmer to thedesired new High/Low-End level (>50% for high-end,<50% for low-end), and then turn OFF. Note: MiddleLED cannot be used for High-End or Low-End set-tings.b. While pressing and holding the Tapswitch:1. The dimmer will turn ON to its preset level,2. The preset LED will light,3. After 10 seconds, the load will turn OFF and thenback ON,4. The preset LED will begin to flash quickly (for twoseconds).c. While the LED is flashing, release the Tapswitch. TheLED will remain ON and the dimmer will be at its pre-set level. The High/Low-End value has been changed.High/Low-End levels may be restored to their factorydefault setting with the following procedure: a. Press the Dimming Rocker to set the dimmer to >50%to reset high-end, or to <50% to reset low-end, andthen turn OFF.b. While pressing and holding the Tapswitch:1. The dimmer will turn ON to its preset level,2. The preset LED will light,3. After 10 seconds, the load will turn OFF and thenback ON,4. The preset LED will begin to flash quickly (for twoseconds) and then turn OFF. Continue holding theTapswitch for at least six seconds after the LEDstops flashing.c.
