All of the buttons are wired as Patterns. Reviewing the
switch button LED status shows why this is important
(Figure 9). When the relay pattern for a switch button is
"true", the LED for that button will be on red. If "not true" the
LED will be OFF.
A When the occupant presses the top button on, relay
01-01 will turn on and relay 01-02 will turn OFF to give 1/3
lighting. The LED for the top button will be red.
B Pressing the second button causes the relay states to
reverse, giving 2/3 lighting. The top button LED turns OFF
(since its pattern is no longer "true") and the second button
LED turns red.
C Similarly, pressing the third button turns ON both relays,
giving full lighting. The second button LED turns OFF and
the third button LED turns ON. Everything is as it should
be.
If, on the other hand, the third button was smartwired as
a standard ON/OFF group, we would have seen an odd
response. Whenever buttons 1 or 2 were turned ON, the
third button LED would be on green, showing a mixed state
for its relays.

Master Button Alternate Scenarios
The Default Setting — OFF/RESTORE
The Master button on 2-, 4- and 8-button switches is
pre-configured to provide an OFF/RESTORE scenario.
If several individual switch buttons are ON, pressing the
Master turns all of those buttons OFF. Pressing the Master
again would turn those same buttons back ON.
Example 1: (Figure 10)
Assume that in the previous office example, an occupant
prefers a lighting arrangement with the fluorescents at
1/3 and the wall wash units ON. Once the buttons on the
switch are set to this combination, all the occupant needs
to do in the future is press the Master button to turn OFF or
restore this lighting combination.
Example 2:
Assume an 8-button switch is used to control eight zones
in an open office space. At day's end, all but two zones
have been turned OFF. Upon leaving, an employee uses
the Master button to turn OFF the remaining lighting, only
to hear a shout "someone is still here". Pressing the Master
button again would restore the lighting in the zones that
had been ON, without having to turn on the entire floor.
The operating scenario of the Master button can be
changed using the first two DIP Switches located on the
back of the switch unit. The DIP Switches are covered by a
label to prevent accidental changes.
To change settings, remove the gray area in the upper
right corner of the label on the back of the switch.
