Power Consumption 500mW Load Types and Ratings Supported Load Types Single, paddle-type ceiling fan Maximum Load 2A Operational Temperature 32 F - 104 F (0 C - 40 C) Environmental Humidity Storage 5% to 95% non-condensing
-4 F - 158 F (-20 C - 70 C) Miscellaneous Control Communications ZigBee, IEEE 802.15.4, 2.4 GHz, 15-channel spread spectrum radio Wallbox Volume Weight Shipping Weight 5.75 cubic inches 0.12 lb. (0.05 kg) 0.18 lb. (0.08 kg) Installation Instructions 1 Ensure that the location and intended use meet the following criteria:
If the ceiling fan being controlled is a fan/light combination, there must be separate load wires for the fan and light from the control location. A separate Control4 dimmer or switch must be used if the light is to be controlled. Do not use the Fan Speed Controller to control the light. Do not exceed the load capacity requirements of the Fan Speed Controller. 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. 7 8 9 4 Identify your wiring application, and then see the appropriate wiring diagram in the Sample Wiring Configurations section below. The button tap sequences are defined in the table below. Button tap sequences that require a single (1) button should use the top button. 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 Fan Speed Controller wires to the back box wires using the wire nuts. IMPORTANT! The yellow wire is not a traditional traveler. It cannot directly power a 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 IMPORTANT! If the fan speed can be adjusted via a pull chain, remote control, etc., set the fan to high speed using that method prior to operating with the Control4 Fan Speed Controller. To operate the Fan Speed Controller as a stand-alone device:
Click the top button to turn the fan on at high speed. Click the second button to turn the fan on at medium-high speed. Click the third button to turn the fan on at medium speed. Click the fourth button to turn the fan on at low speed. Click the bottom button to turn the fan off. Button Tap Sequences Function Sequence Button 4 7 15 9-4-9 13-4-13 Identify ZigBee Channel Reboot Factory Reset Leave Mesh and Reset Troubleshooting If the fan does not turn on:
Ensure at least one LED on the face of the Fan Speed Controller 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). For help on the installation or operation of this product, email or call the Control4 Technical Support Center. Please provide your exact model number. Contact support@control4.com or see the web site www.control4.com. Care and Cleaning Do NOT paint the Fan Speed Controller or its wall plate. Do NOT use any chemical cleaners to clean the Fan Speed Controller. Clean surface of the Fan Speed Controller with a soft damp cloth as needed. Regulatory/Safety Information Align the Fan Speed Controller 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. To review Regulatory information for your particular Control4 products, see the information located on the Control4 website at: http://www.control4.com/
regulatory/. Install the Control4 Faceplate following the instructions in the Faceplate Installation Guide or attach a standard Decora-style faceplate. Patent Information Applicable patents are available at http://www.control4.com/legal/patents. Turn ON power at the circuit breaker or replace the fuse from the fuse box. Warranty 2 Turn off the local electrical power by either switching off 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 differ. If you are not sure which wires are the Hot, Neutral, Load, Traveler, and Ground wires, have a trained electrician perform the installation. Operation and Configuration On initial power up, all status LEDs on the Fan Speed Controller will illuminate green indicating that the device has power. To set up the Fan Speed Controller for use with a Control4 system, refer to the Composer Pro User Guide.
