ure. Lutron strongly recommends the fol-
lowing:
a. Do not operate low-voltage circuits
without operative lamps in place.
b. Replace burned-out lamps as quickly
as possible.
c. Use transformers that incorporate
thermal protection or fused trans-
former primary windings to prevent
transformer failure due to overcurrent.

Diagrams 1 and 2. When using power
boosters or interfaces, see Wiring
Diagrams in the HomeWorks Technical
Reference Guide (P/N 366-963).
Note: When using controls in single
location installations, cut off the unin-
sulated portion of the control's multi-
location wire (blue wire) and cap off
using one of the provided wire con-
nectors. DO NOT connect the blue
wire to any other wiring or to ground.
Multi-location installation: See Wiring
Diagrams 3 and 4. When using power
boosters or interfaces, see Wiring
Diagrams in the HomeWorks Technical
Reference Guide (P/N 366-963). Up to
nine HD-RD or HD-RS remotes may be
connected to the -5NE, -6D, -6ND,
-10D, -10ND, or -8ANS controls.
7. Push all wires back into the wallbox and
loosely fasten the control to the wallbox
using the control mounting screws pro-
vided. Do not pinch the wires.
8. Attach Lutron Claro or Satin Colors
wallplate adapter and wallplate.
a. Loosely install control mounting
screws.
b. Tighten wallplate adapter mounting
screws snug.

Lamp Replacement
For routine lamp replacement, remove power from the fixture(s) by sliding the Front-
Accessible Service Switch (FASS) to the OFF position (left). After replacing lamps, slide the
FASS back to the ON position (right) to restore power.
Danger - For any procedure other than routine lamp replacement, power must be
disconnected at the main electrical panel.
Troubleshooting Guide
Symptom Cause and Action
No lights at all Power not present
• Circuit breaker OFF or tripped. Perform Short Circuit Check.
• FASS in the OFF position. Move FASS to the ON position by sliding it to the
right. Check both the dimmer/switch and all of the remote dimmers/switches.
Wiring
• Wires shorted. Make sure the blue wires are not grounded or shorted to any
other wires.
• Wiring error. Check wiring to be sure it agrees with installation instructions
and wiring diagrams.
Lamps burned out
• Replace lamps.
Dioded lamps
• If dioded lamps are being used, replace with non-dioded lamps.
Lights turn ON when Wiring

Tapswitch stuck
• Tapswitch stuck at another location. Check to see that tapswitches are not
sticking for all control locations in the circuit.
Light turns ON and Load is less than minimum load requirement

• Make sure the connected load meets the appropriate minimum load require-
ment for that control. See Load Specifications.
