gang installation, attach the black faceplate sub-plate to all of the devices
that will be installed into the wallbox prior to attaching the devices to the
wallbox. This will help ensure that all the devices are properly aligned and

Align the keypad to the wallbox (the model # label should be at the bottom)
and fasten it with screws. Tighten the screws until the back side of the yoke
plate is even with the wall surface, but no further. Overtightening can warp
the configurable keypad and cause mechanical malfunction.

Operation and Configuration
The Auxiliary Keypad acts as a slave device to the Control4 dimmer or switch to
which it is connected.
Click the top button to turn the load on. (When connected to a Fan Speed
Controller, each click of the top button increases the fan speed by one.)
Click the bottom button to turn the load off. (When connected to a Fan
Speed Controller, each click of the bottom button decreases the fan speed by
one.)
When connected to a dimmer, press and hold the top button to ramp the load
up. Release the button at the desired level.
When connected to a dimmer, press and hold the bottom button to fade the
load down. Release the button at the desired level.
Troubleshooting
If the Auxiliary Keypad does not control the load that is connected to the
associated dimmer, switch, or Fan Speed Controller:
Ensure that the circuit breaker is not turned OFF or tripped.
Check for proper wiring of both the Auxiliary Keypad and the associated
dimmer or switch (see "Sample Wiring Configurations"). You may also need to
contact a trained electrician.
