INSTALLATION—Guide V1.2
There are two physical sizes of Redback Wall plates to suit the AU/USA and European mar-
kets, each require a standard wallbox for correct mounting. Please consult your local elec-
trician or LSC dealer for more information on the most suitable one for your application.
Wall plates are connected to the Redback Wallmount dimmer using CAT5 cable. Wall plates
require all 8 wires in the CAT5 cable to be connected.
Mount the Wall plate with the RJ45 connectors at the bottom of the Circuit board as
shown. This allows cable connections to enter from the top and easily connect into the
Redback Wall plate electronics.
Up to 5 Wall plates may be connected to a Redback wallmount dimmer. Additionally the
connecting Cat x cable length should not exceed 150
metres.
The category of cable used (Cat5, Cat6 or
Cat7) is not relevant in this type of installation.
CONFIGURATION
There are four steps required for correct configuration of
the Redback Wall plates.
1.. LABELLING:
Each button may be labelled. Included with the Redback
Wall plate is a sheet of pre-printed labels numbered 1
thru 6. Cut out the required labels. Carefully unscrew
the circuit board from the front panel and snap off the
clear button caps. Place the labels inside the caps and
refit the caps. Ensure the labels are oriented correctly.
If you require custom labels, please visit the LSC web-
site or the Redback Wallmount Dimmer Operator Manual
CD to download a template that allows custom labels to
be created and printed onto transparency medium.
2... WALLPLATE BUTTON COLOURS:
The colour of the LEDs within the Button Indicators may
be changed to Blue, Green or Red by setting the top switch.
Any combination of these colours may be made by combin-
ing two or even all three colours with the extra pin jumpers.
Note that switch 4 (the lowest one) is not used.
Note that there must be a colour selected or there will be no
indication on the Redback Wall plate at all. When a memory
is
not active there will be a very dull glow of the buttons, this
may not be visible under daylight conditions. When a
memory is active the button glows at a higher intensity to
show a memory is active. The button LED will flash while a
memory is fading.
