Warnings and considerations

WARNING! Turn OFF electrical power before installing or servicing this

product. Improper use or installation can cause SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH

or LOSS/DAMAGE OF PROPERTY.

ATTENTION! Coupez l’alimentation électrique avant d’installer ou de

réparer ce produit. Une mauvaise installation ou utilisation peut entraîner

des blessures graves, décès ou perte / dommages à la propriété.

WARNING! This device must be protected by a circuit breaker (20A max).

ATTENTION! Cet appareil doit être protégé par un disjoncteur (20A max.)

WARNING! Ground this device in accordance with the National Electric

Code (NEC) requirements. DO NOT rely solely upon the yoke plate’s

contact with a metal back box for adequate grounding. Use the device’s

ground wire to make a secure connection to the safety ground of the

electrical system.

ATTENTION! Cet appareil doit être en conformité avec le Code national

de l’électricité (NEC). Ne comptez pas uniquement au contact de la

plaque avant avec un boîtier mural métallique pour la mise à la terre

adéquate. Utilisez cet appareil à la terre de l’appareil pour établir une

connexion sécurisée au système électrique.

IMPORTANT! This device must be installed by a licensed electrician in

accordance with all national and local electrical codes.

IMPORTANT! If you are unsure about any part of these instructions,

consult a qualiﬁed electrician.

IMPORTANT! Use this device only with copper or copper-clad wire. Do

not use aluminum wiring. This product has not been approved for use with

aluminum wiring.

IMPORTANT! Using this product in a manner other than outlined in this

document voids your warranty. Further, Control4 is NOT liable for any

damage incurred with the misuse of this product. See “Troubleshooting.”

IMPORTANT! Do NOT use a power screwdriver to install this device. If you

do, you may overtighten the screws and strip them. Also, overtightening

the screws may interfere with proper button operation.

IMPORTANT! This is an electronic device with intricate components.

Handle and install with care!

IMPORTANT! When used in conjunction with an Auxiliary Keypad

(C4-KA-xx), the wire connecting the Auxiliary Keypad to the switch must

not exceed 45 m (150 ft.) at 120V AC, and 30 m (100 ft.) at 277V AC.

Installation instructions

1 Ensure that the location and intended use meet the following criteria:

• Do not exceed the load capacity requirements of the switch. Refer to the

load ratings in the speciﬁcations above for details.

• Install in accordance with all national and local electrical codes.

• The range and performance of the wireless control system is highly

dependent on the following: (1) distance between devices; (2) layout

of the home; (3) walls separating devices; and (4) electrical equipment

located near devices.

2 Turn o the local electrical power by either switching o the circuit breaker or

removing the fuse from the fuse box. To ensure the wires do NOT have power

running to them, use an inductive voltage detector.

NOTE: The back box wiring shown in this document is an example. Your

wire colors and functions may dier. If you are not sure which wires are

the Line In/Hot, Neutral, Load, Traveler, and Earth Ground wires, have a

trained electrician perform the installation.

Introduction

The Control4® Switch operates independently or as part of a Control4 home

automation system. It installs in a standard back box using typical wiring standards

and communicates to the Control4 system using a wireless connection.

Installation Guide

3 Prepare each wire. Wire insulation should be stripped back 5/8 of an inch

from the wire end (see Figure 1).

Figure 1.

Strip wire insulation

4 Identify your wiring application, and then see the appropriate wiring diagram

in the “Sample Wiring Conﬁgurations” section below.

IMPORTANT! Not grounding this product, as described in the section

“Warnings and Considerations,” may result in an installation less immune

to damage caused by electrical disturbances, such as ESD or lightning,

and may void the warranty.

5 Identify and connect the switch wires to the back box wires using the wire

nuts.

IMPORTANT! The yellow wire is not a traditional traveler. It cannot directly

power a lighting load. It must be used only to connect to a Control4

Auxiliary Keypad. See “Sample Wiring Conﬁgurations.”

TIP: If you are using a Control4 push-on (screwless) faceplate in a multi-

gang installation, attach the black faceplate sub-plate to all of the devices

that will be installed into the wallbox prior to attaching the devices to the

wallbox. This will help ensure that all the devices are properly aligned and

on the same plane after installation.

6 Fit the wires back into the back box. Bend the wires in a zigzag pattern so

that they easily fold into the back box (Figure 2).

Figure 2.

Bend the wires

7 Align the switch to the back box (the load rating label should be at the

bottom) and fasten it with screws. Tighten the screws until the back side of

the yoke plate is even with the wall surface, but no further. Overtightening can

warp the dimmer and cause mechanical malfunction.

8 Install the Control4 Faceplate following the instructions in the Faceplate

Installation Guide or attach a standard Decora-style faceplate.

9 Turn on power at the circuit breaker or replace the fuse from

the fuse box.

Operation and conﬁguration

On initial power up, all status LEDs on the switch will illuminate green indicating

that the device has power. To set up this switch for use with a Control4 system,

refer to the Composer Pro User Guide.

To operate this switch as a stand-alone device:

• Click the top button to turn the light on.

• Click the bottom button to turn the light o.

Button tap sequences

The button tap sequences are deﬁned in the table below. Button tap sequences

that require a single (1) button should use the top button.

Function Button Sequence

Identify 4

ZigBee channel 7

Reboot 15

Factory reset 9-4-9

Leave mesh and reset 13-4-13

Troubleshooting

If the light does not turn on:

• Ensure at least one LED on the face of the switch is lit.

• Ensure the light bulb is not burned out and is screwed in tightly.

• Ensure that the circuit breaker is not turned OFF or tripped.

• Check for proper wiring (see “Sample Wiring Conﬁgurations”).

Care and cleaning

• Do NOT paint the switch or its wall plate.

• Do NOT use any chemical cleaners to clean the switch.

• Clean surface of the switch with a soft damp cloth as needed.
