DESCRIPTION

DESCRIPTION
The D3208 can function in two ways: One, as a self-contained dimmer for loads
directly attached to it and two, as a control unit for other remote devices (which it
can also power) attached to the Leviton Control Network (LCnet) communication
bus.
The Multizone Controller is designed to be customized on the job site or
residence in minutes with customized zone and scene names such as
"Chandelier," "Presentation," and so on. If the zone is local to the Multizone
Controller, the zone number appears above the LED column indicating each
zone's brightness level. The "A" for auxiliary will light up to indicate that the zone
is wired to the LCnet but not directly to the Multizone Controller. During
adjustment, the LCD displays the exact zone light level so that repeatable
settings can be achieved. The D3208 provides eight different scene buttons; the
active scene button will remain lit. Once scenes are programmed, any zone may
be individually dimmed or brightened without affecting the rest of the scene. A
number of other helpful push-buttons round out the functionality: Group Dim,
Group Brighten, Maximum Brightness, and OFF.
The D3208 offers programming capabilities including each individual zone's
minimum level and name. Scene changes can also be scheduled based on
clock time or dawn and dusk, and can even be set to change on a seemingly
irregular schedule—ideal for security reasons.
As part of a much larger family of digital controls and systems, the D3208 can
communicate with other LCnet control stations across its high-speed serial data
line. This allows it to be incorporated into a system with other Dimensions 3200
Zone and Scene Controllers, including the six-zone D3206 Multizone Controller/
Dimmer, as well as with remote dimmers and switched loads such as motors.
