1._ To control the fan and lights from two
locations (a three-way circuit), use two W-74
wall controls.
2._ Remove the screws and switch plate from the
existing switch box and the screws holding
the switch in the switch box. Figure #5
3._ Pull the existing switch from the switch box to
expose the wire connections.
4._ Determine which wire is connected to the
common terminal from the power source
(120V AC) of the three-way switch. (The
terminal will be marked on switch).
5._ Remove the wire from the common terminal
of the three-way switch. Connect this wire to
the remaining black/white striped wire on the
W-74 control. Secure this splice with a wire
nut. Figure 4
CAUTION!_
Ensure power is turned OFF at the breaker or fuse panel before starting installation.

To control the fan and lights from two locations (a three-way
circuit), use two W-74 wall controls as shown in the wiring diagram
in Figure #4. Before installing the two switches into the wall, place
both switches side by side, then locate the 6 dip switches on the
side of the two switches as shown in Figure #3. Then make sure that
the dip switches are set to the same address on both switches as
shown in Figure #3. When setting these dip switches you are setting
the channel number that is required to control both your fan and
lights from both sides of the room. If you are installing other Direct-
Touch
TM
3 fans within your home you may need to reset the dip
switches on these other fans to a different channel before installing
your W-74 wall control into the wall. Please review the section on
channel changing within this part of the operation manual as shown
on page #20.

6._ Remove the two remaining wires from the three-way
switch. Connect the black wire of these wires to a black
wire on the W-74 control. Secure the splice with a wire nut.
The remaining red wire is to be connected to the other red
wire on the
W-74. Secure the splice with a wire nut. Figure 5
7._ Connect the green ground wire coming from the back of the
W-74 control to the ground wire in the switch box. Secure
the splice with a wire nut.
8._ Check your work by using the wiring diagrams as shown in
Figures # 4 and #5 on this page.
9._ Install the W-74 in the wall box with the two long screws
provided.
10._ Install the wall plate with the two short color-matched
screws provided.
11._ Installation of the second W-74 control is identical. Repeat
steps 1 through 7.
