Mesh controller with onboard incandescent dimmer. The latter is ideal for spaces where both Ketra and traditional lighting sources need to be controlled. Fitting within a standard wall box and either Decora® or Claro wall plates, the X2 is perfect for retrofit installations as well as new construction.
Dimmer Load X2-INC Load Type and Capacity Chart Load Type Single Gang Multigang Incandescent 600 W 500 W Dimmer capacity rated at 25 ˚C ambient temperature; derate incandescent and halogen loads an additional 100 W at 40 ˚C temperature ambient.
Prepare the wire for connection to lead wire: A. Strip 8.5 mm of wire for insertion into the wire nut. B. Twist the stranded wire to prevent fraying (tinning optional). Using the provided wire nuts, attach each X2 lead wire to the corresponding conductor. Black-Line, White-Neutral, Green-Ground (see figure 5).

Secure Wall Plate Mount to the X2 using the supplied fasteners (see figure 7). Note: If the X2’s button chassis is not aligned with the wall plate mount, remove the mount and adjust the position of the X2. Secure the wall plate mount with the fasteners when satisfied.
The wall box should have a volume of 14 in3 or greater. • The X2 does not have to be on the same circuit as any Ketra fixtures, as all control signals are wireless. • Ketra fixtures to be controlled by the X2 should have an uninterrupted source of power. They should NOT be wired to a light switch or other intermediary device that could cut their power.
Prepare the wire for connection to lead wire: A. Strip 0.3 in (8.5 mm) of wire for insertion into the wire nut. B. Twist the stranded wire to prevent fraying (tinning optional). Using the provided wire nuts, attach each X2 lead wire to the corresponding conductor. Black-Line, White-Neutral, Green-Ground, Red-Dimmed Line (see figures 11 & 12).

Ketra fixtures being controlled by the X2 Keypad. Ketra fixtures to be controlled by the X2 Keypad do not have to be connected to the same circuit, as the control signal is wireless. However, non-Ketra fixtures will need to be on the same circuit and wired in-line if they are to be controlled by an X2 with onboard incandescent dimmer.
To replace the button chassis, follow these steps: Pull airgap switch out. (If X2 already installed) Snap the wall plate off of its mount, and then unscrew and remove the mount. Save screws. Using a Phillips (PH1) screwdriver, unscrew the bottom-right screw that holds the button chassis in place (see figure 10).
