The XPD3 (3-way master/single pole) Incandescent Dimmer Module is designed
to control incandescent loads with
a rating of between 40W and 500W. Lamps rated below 40W may flicker or
operate erratically. A Companion Switch
(XPSS) is available for three and four-way operation. A removable
decorative paddle is located on the Wall Dimmer
Module for local ON/OFF and BRIGHTEN/DIM control. A power cutoff switch
located only on the Wall Dimmer
Module, directly below paddle, is provided for bulb changing.
Note:To use as a single pole module simply cap off the RED wire.
Incandescent Dimmer Modules must not be used to
control appliances or fluorescent lamps.
Installing the Wall Dimmer Module (used as a three way)
• Disconnect power at the circuit breaker.
• Remove switch plates and unscrew existing switches from their
boxes. Identify the Line, load and traveller
wires at each existing switch (usually connected to a different color
terminal).
• Replace one of the existing wall switches with the Incandescent
Dimmer Module XPD3.
• The Load connects to the Blue wire on the module.
• The Red wire from the XPD3 is connected to a traveller wire going
to the Switch position on the XPSS Slave.
• 120VAC can be supplied by either the Master or the Slave position
and sent over on a traveller wire to the Black
wire on the XPD3 and the Live position on the XPSS. In a single pole
application line and Load should be in the
same box.
Setting up the Wall Dimmer Module
• Set the House Code dial (under the removable decorative paddle) to
the same letter set on the controller or
Security Console. The House Code for monitored security consoles is
downloaded by the security installation
firm. The default House Code is 'A', when using the PRO2000.
• For normal lighting control, set the Unit Code dial to an unused
code which can be controlled from the controller
or an RF remote such as the Security Remote, PSR01 (switches 1-4 control
Unit Codes 1-4).
• To use as the security light, set the Unit Code to the match the
Unit Code of the security console. The Unit Code
for monitored security consoles is downloaded by the security installation
firm. The default Unit Code is '13',
when using the PRO2000.
Note: The security light is the light which is flashed on/off during
an alarm and is controlled by the security LIGHT
ON and LIGHT OFF buttons on the PRO2000 console, keychain and security
remotes)
4-Way Applications
• When creating a four-way application, simply parallel another XPSS
across the same two travellers from the first
Slave location. Connect wires from Switch to Switch and Live to Live,
using the feed thru screw terminals.
