Multigang Installations
In multigang installations, several controls
are grouped horizontally in one multigang
wallbox.
When combining controls in a wallbox,
derating is required; however, no derat-
ing is required for Fan Speed Controls or
Remotes.

Note: -8ANS controls have fins that need
to be removed for multigang installations.
-6D, -6ND, -10D, -10ND, and -2ANF
controls do not have fins that need to be
removed for multigang installations.
Short Circuit Check: Check the instal-
lation for short circuits before installing
control(s). With power OFF, install stan-
dard mechanical switch(es) between Hot
and load. Restore power. If lights or fan
do not work or a breaker trips, check
wiring. Correct wiring and check again.
Install control(s) only when short is no lon-
ger present. Warranty is void if control is
turned ON with a shorted circuit.
1. Turn power OFF at fusebox or circuit
breaker.
2. Prepare wires. When making wire con-
nections, follow the recommended strip
lengths and combinations for the sup-
plied wire connector. Note: Wire con-
nectors provided are suitable for copper
wire only.

3. Wire controls as follows:
Single location installation: See Wiring
Diagrams 1 and 2.
Multi-location installation: See Wiring
Diagrams 3 and 4.
Power Booster and Interfaces: When
using power boosters or interfaces, see
Wiring Diagrams in the HomeWorks
Technical Reference Guide (P/N 366-
963).
4. Push all wires back into the wallbox and
loosely fasten the control to the wallbox
using the control mounting screws pro-
vided. Do not pinch the wires.
5. Attach Lutron Claro or Satin Colors wall-
plate adapter and wallplate.
a. Install wallplate adapter onto front of
control(s).
b. Tighten control mounting screws until
wallplate adapter is flush to wall (do
not over-tighten).
c. Snap wallplate onto wallplate adapter,
and verify that control is aligned
properly.
d. If control(s) is(are) misaligned, loosen
mounting screws appropriately.
6. Restore power. Check for correct local
operation (see Dimmer / Fan Operation
and Switch Operation).
Symptom Cause and Action
No lights at all or
no fan response Power not present
• Circuit breaker OFF or tripped. Perform Short Circuit
Check.
• FASS is in the OFF position. Move FASS to the
ON position by fully pushing it in. Check both the
Dimmer / Fan Control / Switch and all of the Remote
Dimmers / Switches.
Wiring
• Wires shorted. Make sure the blue terminal is not
grounded or shorted to any other wires.
• Wiring error. Check wiring to be sure it agrees with
installation instructions and wiring diagrams.
Lamps burned out or not installed
• Replace or install lamps.
Dioded lamps
• If dioded lamps are being used, replace with non-dioded
lamps.
Fan setting
• Make sure the fan is set to its highest speed using the
pull-chain.
Fan Speed Control Wrong Load Type
• Make sure that only a single ceiling paddle fan (perma-
nent split-capacitor motor) rated at 2 A or less is con-
nected to the control.
• Make sure that no lighting load (i.e. light kit) is con-
nected to the control.
Lights / fan turn ON
when Tapswitch is
pressed, then turn
OFF
Wiring
• Wiring error. Check wiring to be sure it agrees with
installation instructions and wiring diagrams.
Tapswitch stuck
• Tapswitch stuck at another location. Check to see that
tapswitches are not sticking for all control locations in
the circuit.
Light turns ON and
OFF continuously Load is less than minimum load requirement
• Make sure the connected load meets the appropriate
minimum load requirement for that control. See Load
Specifications.
Lights / fan don’t

Wiring
• Wires shorted. Make sure the blue terminal is not
grounded or shorted to any other wires.
• Wiring error. Check wiring to be sure it agrees with
installation instructions and wiring diagrams.
• Neutral-based product installation location. Check that
neutral-based products are connected on the load side
of a multi-location installation (see Wiring Diagram 4).
Lights / fan don’t
switch ON/OFF
from Keypad
Improper programming
• Check programming in the HomeWorks software.
Out of RF range
• Reposition RF Signal Repeater or RF Processor to be
within 30 feet (9 m) of control.
Wiring
• Wires shorted. Make sure the blue terminal is not
grounded or shorted to any other wires.
• Wiring error. Check wiring to be sure it agrees with
installation instructions and wiring diagrams.
Wallplate is warm Solid-state control dissipation
• Solid-state dimmers, switches, and fan controls inter-
nally dissipate about 2% of the total connected load. It
is normal for dimmers, switches, and fan controls to feel
warm to the touch during operation.
Control is buzzing
or humming It is normal for dimmers, switches, and fan controls to emit a
slight buzzing or humming sound.

1 Dimmer Load Type: -6D, -6ND, -10D and
-10ND are designed for use with permanently
installed incandescent, magnetic low-voltage,
or tungsten halogen only. Do not install dim-
mers to control receptacles or motor-operated
appliances.
2 Low-Voltage Applications: Use -6D,
-6ND, -10D and -10ND with magnetic (core
and coil) low-voltage transformers only. Not
for use with electronic (solid-state) low-voltage
transformers. To control electronic low-voltage
transformers, use the HRD-5NE control.
Operation of a low-voltage circuit with lamps
inoperative or removed may result in transform-
er overheating and premature failure. Lutron
strongly recommends the following:
• Do not operate low-voltage circuits without
operative lamps in place.
• Replace burned-out lamps as quickly as
possible.
• Use transformers that incorporate thermal
protection or fused transformer primary
windings to prevent transformer failure due
to overcurrent.
3 Switch Load Type: -8ANS is designed for use
with all permanently installed lighting loads and
with motor loads up to 1/4 HP (5.8 A).
4 Ceiling Fan Application (HRD-2ANF):
DO:
• Use to control one paddle-type ceiling fan
(permanent split-capacitor)*.
• Use the ceiling fan’s pull chain to set its
speed to the highest setting*.
DO NOT:
• Do not use to control fans that use shaded-
pole motors (i.e. bath exhaust fans)*.
• Do not use to control fans that have inte-
grated fan speed controls (i.e. fans that have
a remote control), unless the integrated con-
trol is removed from the ceiling fan*.
• Do not connect to any other motor-operated
appliance or to any lighting load type.
• Do not use to control a fan lighting load (i.e.
light kit).
Important Notes
Codes: Install in accordance with all local
and national electrical codes.
WARNING - These controls must not be
used to control equipment which is
not visible from every control loca-
tion. They must also not be used
to control equipment which could create
hazardous situations such as entrapment
if operated accidentally. Examples of such
equipment which must not be operated
by these controls include (but are not
limited to) motorized gates, garage doors,
industrial doors, microwave ovens, heating
pads, etc. It is the installer’s responsibility
to ensure that the equipment being con-
trolled is visible from every control location
and that only suitable equipment is con-
nected to these controls.
Environment: Ambient operating tempera-
ture: 32 °F to 104 °F (0 °C to 40 °C),
0% to 90% humidity, non-condensing.
Indoor use only.
Spacing: If mounting one control above
another, leave at least 4
1⁄2 in. (114 mm)
vertical space between them.
Wallplates: Lutron Claro® and Satin
Colors® wallplates are recommended for
best color match and aesthetic appear-
ance. Do not paint controls or wallplates.
Cleaning: To clean, wipe with a clean
damp cloth. DO NOT use any chemical
cleaning solutions.
Wallboxes: Lutron recommends using
31⁄2 in. (89 mm) deep wallboxes for eas-
ier installation. Several controls may be
installed in one multigang wallbox — see
Derating Chart.
Remotes: Use only Lutron HomeWorks
Maestro Remote Dimmers (HD-RD) with
-6D, -6ND, -10D, -10ND, and -2ANF
controls. Use only Lutron HomeWorks
Maestro Remote Switches (HD-RS) with
-8ANS controls. Up to 9 HD-RD or HD-RS
controls may be used with a HomeWorks
RF Maestro Dimmer, Switch, or Fan Speed
Control. Mechanical 3- or 4-way switches
will not work.
RF Device Placement: RF Dimmers,
Switches, and Fan Speed Controls must
be located within 30 feet (9 m) of an RF
Signal Repeater or an RF Processor.
Remote Dimmers and Switches are not
required to be within a specific range of a
repeater or processor.
RF Dimmers, Switches or Fan Speed
Controls cannot be controlled by the
system until they are addressed and pro-
grammed. See the HomeWorks Software
online help.
