READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING SYSTEM.
Before beginning installation, be sure power is turned OFF to light system.
Tresco FREEDiM Wall Controllers provide color control for RGB lighting or warm/
®
cool controls for CCT (white color-tunable) lighting on Tresco
and CCT lights. They also control the intensity (dim levels) of the lights. The digital
screen on the FREEDiM Parent Controller displays the current mode and
The wireless Wall Controller must be positioned within 50 ft. (15m) of the Parent
Controller. Note: outside interference may affect the signal between Wall Controller
and Parent Controller or Child Receiver. (see 'Signal Interference' on page 2)
The Wall Controller's mounting cradle (see Figure 1) allows installation directly to
drywall or to a standard wall electrical box, giving the appearance of a hardwired
wall switch. Verify power to outlet box is off before installing. (see Figure 2 for
installation options)
The Wall Controller has a magnet to hold it within the mounting cradle or to place
on any magnetic surface (i.e. refrigerator door). To remove Wall Controller from
mounting cradle use the slight indents on the top and bottom edges of Controller.
The mounting cradle has an index tab to orient the Wall Controller in the proper
"up" position. (see Figure 1)
Tresco's FREEDiM Parent Controllers and Child Receivers can be used with any
Class 2, 12VDC/60W or 24VDC/96W Power Supply. As an option, Tresco
Supplies are available: (see Power Supplies on Figure 3 & 4)
12VDC/60W max. part no.: L-DC-SLELT60-1, and
24VDC/96W max. part no.: L-24DCELT96-1
For more Power Supply options, see Tresco
Installing Parent Controller:
NOTE: All wiring must follow local codes and NEC regulations.
1. Verify power is turned off to light system. Connect Parent Controller input wire
to 12VDC or 24VDC Power Supply output wire (see Figures 3 & 4).
2. If using Tresco Power Supplies, connect Parent Controller input wire to 12VDC
Mounting Block or 24VDC 5-Output Barrel Splice (see Figures 3 & 4). Otherwise
follow installation guide of power supply used.
To use multiple Parent Controllers or Child Receivers on one Power Supply, the
optional 12VDC Mounting Block (P/N: L-TRANS-MNT-BL) can accept 6 Parent
Controllers and/or Child Receivers. The optional 24VDC 5-Output Barrel Splice
(P/N: L-1BRL5-1) can accept 5 Parent Controllers and/or Child Receivers.
Use insulated staples or plastic ties to secure ALL loose cords.
3. With RGB or CCT light(s) connected to a starter cord, plug the starter cord into the
Parent Controller or Child Receiver(s) 4-Position Amp Output Connector.
Child Receivers must be used with Parent Controller.
To connect multiple RGB or CCT light(s) to a single Parent Controller or Child
Receiver use the optional 4-Position 6-Output Adaptor Cord (P/N: L-4P6O-1).
Plug the input wire of the Adaptor Cord to the 4-Position Amp Connector on the
output of the Parent Controller or Child Receiver. Then plug the desired RGB or
CCT light(s) starter cords into any of the 6 outputs of the Adaptor Cord.
The 4-Position 6-Output Adaptor Cord works with 12VDC/5A and 24VDC/4A
systems as well as RGB and Color Tunable White Lights.
4. Check all connections and turn on power to the Power Supply.
5. Check the mode on the Parent Controller and select either RGB or CCT mode
depending on the LED light system installed.
NOTE: See separate instruction sheets for further information on Tresco
low voltage LED RGB and CCT lights, FREEDiM Parent Controllers and Child
Receivers, and Tresco ® Power Supplies.
See page 2 for further instructions.
