CLW-DIM, DIMS, & SLVD(W/A/B)
shielded twisted-pair to a Crestron control system. These
wires are routed to the bottom of the device for
connection outside of the wallbox. The low voltage wires
are pulled from each device location to the Crestron
control system, a Crestron power supply, a Crestron
C2N-NPA8, or a Crestron connection block device. Use
#22 AWG, twisted, shielded, 2-conductor wire. Wiring
can be daisy chained, T-tapped, or home run back to the
control system. Refer to the following wiring diagram.
1. Turn power off at the circuit breaker.
2. If installing multiple dimmers (-DIM or -DIMS),
note the serial number on each device and make
sure they are being installed in the proper
location.
3. Pull Class 2 low voltage wires through a hole in
the drywall located outside of the electrical box,
to the Crestron control system, a Crestron power
supply, a Crestron C2N-NPA8, or a Crestron
connection block device. Leave wires outside of
the wallbox for connection to the -DIM or
-DIMS.
Wiring Diagram of CLW device to Cresnet
NOTE:
Alternate wiring methods may be used for the
Class 2 wiring connection. Refer to section 725-55, Part
D of the 2002 National Electric Code.
4. Wire the device for the appropriate application.
Choose either “CLW-DIM / CLW-DIMS
Wiring” or “CLW-DIMS with CLW-SLVD
Wiring”, shown on this page and the following
page.
NOTE:
The GRAY (Cresnet) wires are not polarized.
These wires can be connected to either the Y or Z line on
a Cresnet port.
NOTE:
Alternative wiring methods can be obtained from
the Dealer/Tech Resources | Design Center section of the
Crestron website (http://www.crestron.com/dealer-
tech_resources/design_center/hot_design_tips_and_
diagrams/tech_sales_tips/).
NOTE:
The BLACK wire (Cresnet ground) should not
be grounded with the GREEN (Ground) wire on the
-DIM/-DIMS/-SLVD.
CLW-DIM / CLW-DIMS Wiring
NOTE:
Crestron recommends using Crestron’s
Cresnet-
DM
cable for connecting the -DIM and -DIMS to the
Cresnet network.
NOTE:
The -DIM and-DIMS require a neutral wire for
operation. If no neutral is present, contact a licensed
electrician for installation or contact Crestron customer
service for alternative wiring options.
Installation
The following wiring diagram illustrates installation of
the -DIM or -DIMS.
NOTE:
The -DIMS must be installed in the same
wallbox that contains the connections to the load.

CLW-SLVD)
NOTE:
The -DIM, -DIMS, and -SLVD require a neutral
wire for operation. If no neutral is present, contact a
licensed electrician for installation or contact Crestron
Customer Service for alternative wiring options.

WARNING:
Turn off power at the circuit breaker.
Installing with power on can result in serious personal
injury and damage to the device.
NOTE:
New installations should be checked for short
circuits prior to installing the -DIM, -DIMS, or -SLVD.
With power off, close the circuit and restore power. If the
lights do not work or a breaker trips, check and correct the
wiring or fixture (if necessary). Install the -DIM, -DIMS,
or -SLVD only when the short is no longer present.
The
warranty is void if the -DIM, -DIMS, or -SLVD is
installed and operated with a shorted load
.
