SOLUTION
Push light pipe (indicator) back into position flush with faceplate
assembly housing.
Loosen mounting screws on remote switch and/or wallplate to
relieve pressure on housing.
Exercise actuator several times to ensure proper seating and
Operation.
Loosen mounting screws to relieve pressure on the switch
housing.
Reseat the springs: place the faceplate face-up on a flat surface,
then press down on both sides of each rocker at the same time.
Reduce the power load by removing bulbs from the circuit.
Reconfigure the switch for ON/OFF operation with no dimming
(using UPStart, for example).

POWER DISCONNECTION

To physically disconnect power to the connected lamp fixture, depress
the top of the rocker switch, grab the underside of the clear plastic
indicator tab with your fingernail, pull the tab out about 0.05", then push
the tab down to lock it in place. The indicator will extinguish to show
that power is now disconnected. To reconnect power, simply push the
tab up and it will snap back into its normal position.

FUNCTION

The SimplyBrilliant™ UPB Dimming Transceiver Switch, model US11-30,
allows remote control of permanently-installed new or existing lighting
fixtures, lamps and other electrical devices. Each unit has one rocker
switch that directly controls a load up to 900W. Incandescent lamps can
be turned ON or OFF, and can also be dimmed and brightened. The
US11-30 can be configured to turn other types of non-dimmable loads ON
and OFF. The switch also acts as a transmitter that can communicate
with other UPB devices, either individually or collectively for lighting
scenes.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

When using electrical products, basic safety precautions should always
be followed, including the following:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
2. REMOVE YELLOW "INSTALL WITH CARE" LABEL BEFORE
INSTALLING.
3. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician.
4. Keep away from water. If product comes into contact with water or
other liquid, disconnect immediately.
5. Never use products that have been dropped or damaged.
6. Do not use this product outdoors.
7. Do not use this product for other than its intended use.
8. Do not connect multiple lamps that, when combined, exceed the
maximum load rating of the product, de-rated for multi-gang boxes.
9. Do not install in areas that can exceed 120°F (e.g., in an attic).
10. To avoid the risk of overheating and possible damage to other
equipment, do not use this product to control a receptacle.
11. Do not cover the product with any material when in use.
12. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

INSTALLATION

The SimplyBrilliant™ UPB Dimming Transceiver Switch (US11-30) is
designed to be installed in a junction box that is wired to a readily
accessible over-current protection device in the building wiring per NEC
and CEC electrical codes.
CAUTION: The default switch configuration operates as a dimmer for
incandescent lamps. It will also dim magnetic low-voltage and
halogen lamps. To control fluorescent, electronic low-voltage or
metal halide lamps, or motor-operated appliances, transformer-
supplied appliances or fans, the switch must be reconfigured for
ON/OFF operation (no dimming) prior to use. Refer to the section on
Configuration.
CAUTION: DO NOT WIRE THIS DEVICE WITH POWER
CONNECTED. Injury or permanent damage to the device
may result. Improper installation voids the product warranty.
1. Locate the existing wall switch for the lighting to be controlled. Note
that the lamp rating (or the combined rating of all connected lamps)
must not exceed what is shown in the de-rating table below.
Number of Load
Dimmers in J-box
1 2 3+
1 600W -- --
Number
of J-box
2 800W 500W --
Gangs
3+ 900W 700W 500W
2. Disconnect power at the circuit breaker.
3. Remove the existing wall switch hardware. Disconnect the wires to
the switch.
4. Remove the yellow "INSTALL WITH CARE" label, if present.
5. Using a wire nut, connect the black (Line) wire of the switch to the
black (Line) power wire.
6. Using a wire nut, connect all white (Neutral) wires together.
7. Using a wire nut, connect the brown (load output) wire of the US11-
30 to the black wire of the device to be controlled.
8. IF THIS IS TO BE A 3- OR MORE-WAY INSTALLATION, use a wire
nut to connect the brown/white wire to the traveler wire that extends
to the slave switch. If there is a second slave and a second traveler,
use a wire nut to connect the red/white traveler to the wire that
extends to the second slave switch location. Refer to the wiring
diagrams on pages 3 and 4.
9. Mount the switch inside the J-box using captive screws. DO NOT
OVER TIGHTEN THE SCREWS.
10. Reconnect power at the circuit breaker.
