Leviton AC00R-10 Installation Instructions

PK-93620-10-00-0A-X1
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:
• To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and regulations.
• If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult a qualified electrician.
• To avoid overheating and possible damage to this device and other equipment, do not install to control a receptacle, fluorescent lighting, a motor- or a transformer-
operated appliance.
• For Hi-lume ® or Eco-10™ (EcoSeries) electronic ballast applications, use instruction sheet that comes with the dimmer for multi-location applications.
• Acenti™ dimmers are not compatible with standard 3-way or 4-way switches. They must be used with compatible Acenti™ remotes for multi-location dimming.
Tools needed to install your Remote:
Slotted/Phillips Screwdriver Electrical Tape
Pliers Pencil
Cutters Ruler

IMPORTANT:
For 3-Way applications, note that one of the screw terminals from
the old switch being removed will usually be a different color
(Black) or labeled Common. Tag that wire with electrical tape and
identify as the common (Line or Load) in both the dimmer wall box
and remote wall box.
For 4-Way applications, note that the old switch being removed
will have 4 screws plus a ground screw. Tag the two same color
insulated wires with electrical tape.
Preparing and connecting wires:
Step 3
This remote can be wired using side wire terminal
screws or through backwire openings. Choose
appropriate wire stripping specifications accordingly.

Back Wire (either hole may
be used)
Back wire openings use #14-12
AWG solid copper wire only.
• Make sure that the ends of the wires from the wall box are
straight (cut if necessary).
• Remove insulation from each wire in the wall box as shown.
Installing your Alignment Plate:
Step 4
Important Notice for Installer
To achieve proper aesthetic installation of the Acenti
products, the wall surface surrounding the wall box opening
must be fairly flat and free of irregularities. The wall box must
be level and recessed or flush to the wall surface. The Acenti
installation system allows for adjustments that will correct
minor flaws that may be present in the installation area.
This device must be installed with the Acenti™ Alignment
Plate. The Alignment Plate is packaged with the Acenti™
Wallplate, which is sold separately from this device.
The Alignment Plate will function properly only if it is
mounted to a flat wall surface as described above.
• Leviton recommends to temporarily position the Alignment
Plate prior to wiring the device. If the wall box wires
extend at least 6 inches out of the wall box, it is also
possible to install the Alignment Plate after the device has
been wired (refer to Wallplate instruction sheet).
• The Alignment Plate must be installed with the tab
towards the bottom.
• Leviton recommends the following 3 methods to
temporarily hold the Alignment Plate – use of device
mounting screw, use of wall box wires, or use of electrical
tape (refer to the following figures):

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:
• Use only one (1) dimmer in a multi-location circuit with up to 9 coordinating remotes without LEDs or up to 4 matching remotes with LEDs. The remote(s) will turn the
light on at the brightness level selected at the dimmer.
• Recommended minimum wall box depth is 2-1/2".
• Maximum wire length from dimmer to all installed remotes cannot exceed 300 ft.
• Disconnect power at circuit breaker or fuse when servicing, installing or removing fixture.
• Use this device only with copper or copper clad wire. With aluminum wire use only devices marked CO/ALR or CU/AL.
Step 4 cont'd
• For Incandescent and Magnetic Low-Voltage Applications, go
to appropriate Steps 5a-5d.
• For Electronic Low-Voltage, Electronic Switch, Mark 10™ and
Fan Speed Applications, go to appropriate Steps 5e-5h.
