Multi-Gang Installations

When combining multiple Switches, Dimmers, Auxiliary Controls, Keypads, and Fan Controllers into a multi-ganged box, the tabs on the 
inside need to be removed to be able to fit all devices into the electrical box. Below are examples of 4, 3, and 2-gang scenarios.

Tabs are removed from both sides of inside gang devices. 

Tabs are 

NOT

 removed from outside edges of the device at the end of each gang.

Electrician Removal/Installation Instructions 

To ensure proper installation, a qualified electrician should do the following: 

 

ELECTRIC SHOCK:

 The 120V AC, 60 Hz source power poses an electric shock hazard that has the potential to cause serious injury to 

installers and end users.

 

IMPORTANT:

 

A licensed electrician is required to install any Savant lighting or fan controller equipment. Isolate and turn o

 the power at the main 

breaker panel prior to replacing any electrical devices.

For line, load, neutral, and ground connections, use only #14 AWG or larger solid copper wires (80°C) with insulation stripped to 

” (16 mm).

1.

At the main breaker panel, switch the breaker that supplies power to the existing fan controller to O

.

2.

Unscrew the wall plate and remove. Verify power is removed using a 120V AC tester.

3.

Unscrew the two 6-32 flat head screws and remove the existing fan controller switch.

4.

Disconnect wires from the existing device and remove the device. It is good practice to label each wire as it is removed. If not 
already identified, mark the wires to ensure proper rewiring. Especially if the circuit employs a 3-way configuration.

5.

Connect the in-wall wires to the leads coming from the Metropolitan Wireless Fan Controller using the supplied wire nuts or 
approved alternative. Refer to the 

Wiring Diagrams

 and 

Rear View Descriptions

 sections. 

6.

Insert the fan controller into the electrical switch box and secure with the 6-32 flat head screws provided. 

DO NOT

 use a 

powered screw driver. A powered screw driver can over tighten the screws.

7.

Re-establish power at the main breaker panel. 

8.

Press the reset button on the front panel with the load attached. This will calibrate the fan controller to the circuit it is being 
installed to.

9.

Once the fan controller has calibrated itself, it will go into a quick diagnostic and the LEDs will cycle as follows:

All LEDs will illuminate bright and then flash twice. 

Next, the three front panel LEDs will flash several times in sync. 

From there, the same front panel LEDs will blink. Refer to the 

LED Sequencing

 table

LED Sequencing

The 1st LED blinks and 
then the 2nd/3rd LED 
blink in an alternating 
pattern.

The fan controller is in AP Mode and waiting to be provisioned through either the Web UI or 
SmartConnect. After approximately 60 seconds, the blinking will stop. In this scenario, the fan 
controller is still in AP Mode. The blinking was stopped intentionally for cases where the fan 
controller is not put on the network immediately and can be used as a manual fan controller till 
provisioned. 

1st LED illuminates solid.
2nd/3rd LED blink.

The fan controller is connected to the local network (IP Address assigned) but not bound to the 
host/controller. The blinking will stop after 60 seconds but the fan controller will remain in this 
state.

All three front panel 
LEDs flash in sync

The fan controller was previously provisioned and is trying to establish a connection with the local 
network but the settings are wrong. The fan controller will need to be reset to its default values 
and reconnected with the correct network settings. The blinking will stop after 60 seconds but fan 
controller will remain in this state.

Note:

 Pressing any button on the front panel after cycling has stopped will begin a new cycle period with only a 20 second duration.

10.

To test the device without connecting to a local network, press the rotary dial to switch the fan On. The fan will switch On to full 
speed. Turn the rotary dial counterclockwise to decrease the fan speed till the fan stops. From the O

 position, turn the rotary 

dial clockwise and the fan speed will increase. Press the rotary dial again to switch the fan O

.

Wiring Diagrams 

The diagram below displays how to wire the fan controller to a ceiling fan. Any unused wires must have the bare wire portion 
(stripped end) cut o

 and the wire must be capped with a wire nut.

When ready to connect to a local network, refer to the 

Metropolitan Wireless Lighting Deployment Guide (009-1342-00)

 on the 

Savant Customer Community

WARNINGS:

The fan controller is not supported in a No Neutral configuration.

A separate switch is required if the fan being installed includes a light kit.

residential environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in 
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications, However there is no guarantee that 
interference will not occur in a particular installation, If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television 
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment o

 and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by 

one or more of the following measures: 
- Reorient or relocate the receiving circuit di

erent from that to which receiver is connected. 

- Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
- Consult the dealer or experienced radio/TV technician for help.
