Installation instructions
1 Ensure that the location and intended use meet the following criteria:
•
When replacing a traditional 3-way switch, refer to the "Two-Location"
sample wiring configurations provided in the appropriate load control
device installation guide.
•
Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.
•
The range and performance of the wireless control system is highly
dependent on the following: (1) distance between devices; (2) layout
of the home; (3) walls separating devices; and (4) electrical equipment
located near devices.
2 Turn off the mains electrical power at the consumer unit. To ensure the wires
do not have power running to them, use an inductive voltage detector.
Note: The wall box wiring shown in this document is an example. Your
wire colors and functions may differ.
3 If the keypad is to be installed in a round wall box, attach the Trim Ring to
the wall box following the instructions in the Trim Ring Installation Guide
ctrl4.co/trimring
(
).
4 Prepare each wire. Wire insulation should be stripped back 7mm from the
wire end.
5 Identify and connect the keypad wires to the wall box wires using the
terminal block as shown in Figure 1 below.

6 Fit the wires back into the wall box. Bend the wires in a zigzag pattern so
that they easily fold into the wall box.
7 Align the keypad to the wall box or Trim Ring, making sure the arrows
point up, then fasten it with screws. Tighten the screws until the back side
of the yoke plate is even with the wall surface or Trim Ring, but no further.
Overtightening can warp the configurable keypad and cause mechanical
malfunction.
8 Install the buttons as described in the Keypad Button Installation Guide
(
ctrl4.co/butn
).
9 Install the Control4 Faceplate following the instructions in the Faceplate
Installation Guide (
ctrl4.co/faceplate
).
10 Turn ON mains electrical power at the consumer unit.
Operation and configuration
On initial power up, all status LEDs on the keypad will illuminate green indicating
that the device has power. Until the keypad has been configured into a Control4
system, it will not control any loads. To set up this keypad for use with a Control4
system, refer to the Composer Pro User Guide (
ctrl4.co/cpro-ug
).
Button tap sequences
The button tap sequences are defined in the table below. Button tap sequences
that require a single button should use the top-most button installed on the
keypad. Button tap sequences requiring two buttons should use the top-most and
bottom-most buttons installed on the keypad.
