FUNCTION 

The Keypad Load Controller Series are an all in one Keypad 
Controller and Light Dimmer/Relay in a single package. They are 
able to transmit and receive UPB® (Universal Powerline Bus) 
digital commands over the existing power wiring to remotely 
turn on, off, and dim other UPB load control devices. No 
additional wiring is required and no radio frequency signals are 
used for communication. 

Models  

The KPL is available in two different models:  The KPLD Dimmer 
has a built in dimmer rated at 400W and the KPLR Relay is the 
relay version able to handle 8 Amps. Both can be mounted in 
any wall box that contains neutral, line, load and ground wires.  
Available colors are White, Black, and Light Almond. 

Engraved Buttons 

The KPL’s have white backlit buttons engraved with the 
designations of: 

Scene 1, Scene 2, Scene 3, Scene 4

Off

and 

an Up Arrow and Down Arrow. 

 Custom Engraved buttons 

(model CEB) are available enabling you to tailor each button for 
its particular use.  Consult your dealer or our website 
(www.pcslighting.com) for CEB ordering information.

INSTALLATION 

The Keypad Load Controllers are designed for indoor use.  To install 
the KPL module in a wallbox follow these instructions: 

1.

 

Before installing the KPL into a wall box, ensure that power 
to the wall box has been disconnected by removing the fuse 
or turning the circuit breaker off.  Installing products while 
the power is on may expose you to dangerous voltage and 
may damage the product. 

2.

 

Remove any existing wall plate and device from the wall box. 

3.

 

Use wire nuts to securely connect the KPL’s white wire to the 
“Neutral” wire, the KPL’s black wire to the “Line” wire and the 
red wire to the “Load” wire (see illustration below). 

4.

 

Fit the KPL into the wall box and secure with mounting 
screws.  Install the wall plate. 

5.

 

Restore power at the circuit breaker.
