• Screw wire nuts on clockwise, making sure the bare wires

are covered. Pull on each wire nut to make sure the
connections are good.

• Carefully pack the wiring back into junction box. Make sure

the wires are not pinched or strained.

• Fasten power supply to selected junction box location with

the #6x1-1/2" flat-head screws provided. (Figure 1).

• Move power supply switch to the right as shown in Figure 5.

Move receiver slide bar so "

ON

" is visible. The control will

be 

ON 

when power to circuit is applied.

Refer to Figure 1

. Position wall plate over the junction box.

Align receiver so that three-pin plug engages holes in power
supply and slide bar engages the power supply switch.
Insert (2) #6-32x1-1/2" screws through fastening holes in
receiver, wall plate and power supply. Tighten securely.

Do not replace the actuator until you have set the code.

FOR INSIDE USE ONLY WITH INCANDESCENT LAMP CIRCUITS OF 500 WATTS OR LESS. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR
USE IN CIRCUITS WITH FLUORESCENT LAMPS, LIGHT DIMMERS, OR HALOGEN LIGHTING SYSTEMS.

The Control consists of two parts: the power supply and the
receiver. It can replace either single pole (1 switch controlling
a single light) or 3-way switches (2 switches controlling a
single light). Depending on the 3-way switch position, the light
may turn on after a power failure. If properly wired, this will
not occur with a single pole switch installation.

The Wire-in Control can be operated by Remote Control
Model Series 50, 60, 70 and 80, and by Keyless Entry
System Model Series 740.

Figure 1 illustrates the installation of receiver and
power supply to junction box in interior wall.

Single Pole Switch Instructions, Figure 3:

• Disconnect wires from 

the junction box switch

.

Straighten the ends to make sure the insulation is trimmed
back 1/2" to allow connection of the power supply wires.

• Fold the 

BLUE

power supply wire back as shown and cap

with a wire nut. Screw nut in a clockwise direction to
secure.

• Cap black control wire to one junction box wire and red

control wire to the other. Screw wire nuts on clockwise,
making sure bare wires are covered.

3-Way Switch Instructions, Figure 4:

• At the junction box where the Light Control will be installed,

mark the common terminal wire before disconnecting the
switch. (Common terminal may be marked "common",
"com" or uses a different color screw [gold or silver] than
the other two terminal screws.)

• Disconnect wires from 

that junction box switch only

.

Straighten the ends to make sure the insulation is trimmed
back 1/2" to allow connection of the power supply wires.

CAUTION: If there is a ground on your switch (usually a
bare wire attached to a green screw on switch), connect
the wire to the metal junction box. If the box is plastic,
connect the wire to the metal part of the Control.

• Start by capping the black control wire to the common "hot

or live" wire; and the remaining control wires separately to
the other two junction box wires in any order

(but remember

the color of wire #1 connected to the red control wire).

Connect Power Supply

• Pry up lower edge of actuator until it separates from

receiver housing. Set actuator aside.

• Remove the 6-32"x1-1/2" screws and unplug receiver from

power supply. Set receiver aside, discard spacers.

• Remove wall plate and set aside for re-assembly.
• Remove screws holding switch to junction box.
• Pull the switch from the junction box to access the

connecting terminals. See Figure 2.

At this point, determine if you have a single pole or 3-way
switch and follow the instructions that apply to your situation.

Turn off the power to the circuit at the fuse box or
circuit breaker before beginning installation.
