Preset “Button 1-High” is usually used for turning lights on to full brightness while preset “Button 1-Low” is usually used for turning the lights off. Although “1-High” and “1-Low” are usually used for “On” and “Off” respectively, the light level for each preset can be customized by the user. Refer to “Operating Buttons and Switches” on page 5 for more information on customizing light levels. The CLW-DIM features a three-position mode selection switch. Refer to “Operating Buttons and Switches” on page 5 for more information. In the absence of Cresnet communications, the dimmer can still be used to control lighting. The CLW-DIMS (-DIMS) is similar to the -DIM with the added capability of working with a slave unit (CLW-SLVD) in a multi-switch / single circuit application. The CLW-SLVD (-SLVD) is a slave unit that when used in conjunction with the -DIMS acts as an additional dimmer control point in a multi-dimmer / single circuit application. It does not connect to a Cresnet system and cannot be used without a -DIMS. The -SLVD does not have a mode selection switch and is not programmable. It emulates the operation of the -DIMS to which it is connected. 1. The latest software versions can be obtained from the Crestron website. Refer to the NOTE following these footnotes. 2.

CLW-DIM, DIMS, & SLVD(W/A/B)

Physical Description Physical view of CLW-SLVD (clockwise from top; Top, Side, and Front) The -DIM and -DIMS contain three buttons (one large, two small), a light emitting diode (LED), and a three- position slider-switch, shown after this paragraph. The -SLVD is similar to the -DIM and -DIMS but does not have the slider-switch. Line voltage connections are made at the rear of the dimmer. Three Class 2 low voltage wires, located on the front of the switch provide a Cresnet connection to a control system. The wires are routed to the bottom of the unit for placement outside of the wall box. CLW-DIM/DIMS (L) and CLW-SLVD (R) shown in white The -DIM, -DIMS, and -SLVD mount in a standard wallbox and are covered using a decorative faceplate (not included). Physical view of CLW-DIM/ DIMS (clockwise from top; Top, Side, and Front) Industry Compliance This product is Listed to applicable UL Standards and requirements by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Important Notes Read before installation. • Codes: Install in accordance with all local and national electrical codes. Alternate wiring methods may be used for the Class 2 wiring connection. The 2002 National Electrical Code (Article 725-55) prohibits Class 2 conductors of the -DIM, -DIMS, and -SLVD to occupy the same outlet box as the power conductors. The exception is Part D of Section 725.55 of the 2002 National Electrical Code, which allows a device’s power conductors to be installed near (0.25 inch minimum spacing) associated Class 2 conductors in the same outlet box. Consult the 2002 National Electrical Code Handbook and your local electrical inspector before proceeding. Do not use the supplied butt-splice connectors if the Class 2 conductors are to be installed in the wallbox with the power conductors.

Multigang Installations approved connectors (supplied by others) to make Class 2 connections inside the wallbox. In multigang installations, several controls are grouped horizontally in one wallbox. For a smooth appearance, one-piece multigang faceplates (not supplied) can be installed. • CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF OVERHEATING AND POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO OTHER EQUIPMENT, DO NOT INSTALL TO CONTROL A RECEPTACLE OR A MOTOR OPERATED APPLIANCE (i.e. BATH FAN). 1. When combining controls in a wallbox, remove inner side sections prior to wiring (refer to the following figure). • Wiring: Use copper wire only. For supply connections, use wires rated for at least 75°C. Inner Sections of Multiganged Switches DO NOT REMOVE OUTER SECTIONS REMOVE INNER SECTIONS • Lamp Type: The -DIM, -DIMS, and -SLVD are designed for use with permanently installed incandescent, magnetic low voltage, or tungsten- halogen only. • Temperature: The -DIM, -DIMS, and -SLVD are designed to be used where temperatures are between 32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C). • Wallboxes: Devices mount in standard wallboxes. For easy installation, Crestron recommends using 3 ½” deep wallboxes. Several devices can be installed in one wall box (multigang). This requires the removal of side sections (refer to diagram on page 3) and the derating of the dimming device. For a smooth appearance, one-piece multigang faceplates (not supplied) can be installed. The load capacity must also be derated. The following charts provide derating information for various applications. • Other Switch Devices: Mechanical 3- or 4-way switches will not work with the -DIM, -DIMS, or -SLVD. Derating Information for Incandescent and Tungsten Halogen Applications • Spacing: If mounting one device above another, leave at least 4 ½” vertical space between them. Part Number No Side Removed One Side Removed Two Sides Removed -DIM 1000W 600W 400W -DIMS 1000W 600W 400W -SLVD No Derating Necessary • Low Voltage Applications: Use with core and coil (magnetic) low voltage transformers only. Do not use any solid-state electronic low voltage transformers. Operation of a low voltage circuit with all lamps inoperative or removed may result in current flow in excess of normal levels. To avoid transformer overheating and premature transformer failure, Crestron recommends the following: Derating Information for Magnetic Low Voltage Applications* Part Number No Side Removed One Side Removed Two Sides Removed -DIM 1000VA/750W 600VA/450W 400VA/300W -DIMS 1000VA/750W 600VA/450W 400VA/300W -SLVD No Derating Necessary * VA ratings are for input power to the transformer. If you do not know the input power requirement of the transformer, use the bulb’s wattage rating to determine proper rating. ¾ Do not operate low voltage circuits without operative lamps in place. 2. To remove a side section, bend the side section back and forth with a pair of pliers until the section breaks off from the mounting plate. Use a file or sandpaper to remove any excess metal. ¾ Replace burned-out lamps as quickly as possible. ¾ Use transformers that incorporate thermal protection or fuse transformer primary windings to prevent transformer failure due to overcurrent.

This must be used when changing light bulbs to ensure that the load is fully disconnected from power. NOTE: Do not connect the BLUE (Slave) wire to the Black (Hot) or RED (Load) wires. ADJ When the mode selection switch is in the “ADJ” position, the large button is used to switch between the “Button 1- High” and “Button 1-Low” presets (typically “On” and “Off”). The lighting level can be manually adjusted using the two small buttons to raise (right button) and lower (left button) the lighting level. NOTE: The RED (Load) and BLACK (Hot) wires are #14 AWG. The BLUE (Slave) and WHITE (Neutral) wires are #18 AWG. The GREEN (Ground) wire is #16 AWG. The GRAY (Cresnet) wires are #22 AWG. The BLACK wire (Cresnet ground) paired with the GRAY (Cresnet) wires is #22 AWG. If the lighting level is to be stored as a preset, move the mode selection switch to the PRE position. Press and hold the desired preset button until the LED flashes. NOTE: If a -DIMS is installed without a -SLVD, the BLUE lead (Slave) should be capped. PRE 5. Splice the gray wires of the -DIM or -DIMS to the Class 2 low voltage wires connected to the Crestron control system, a Crestron power supply, a Crestron C2N-NPA8, or a Crestron connection block device. Push the wires and the splices into a hole in the drywall to provide the necessary separation. NOTE: Before storing a preset, the lighting must be adjusted to the desired level while in the ADJ mode. When the switch is in the PRE position, it is in the preset mode and can be used to recall and/or store preset lighting levels. The large button is used to recall and/or store the “Button 1-High” and “Button 1-Low” presets. The lower left button (button 2) is used to recall and/or store preset level two. The lower right button (button 3) is used to recall and/or store preset level three. Pressing and releasing a button will fade to the preset lighting level over a three second period. Tapping a button while the light is fading will cause the light level to “jump” to the preset without fading. Pressing and holding a button until the LED flashes will store the current lighting level. 6. Push all Class 1 power wires back into the wallbox and fasten the device to the wallbox with the provided screws. 7. Attach decorative faceplate. 8. Restore power.
