The Screw-In Dimmer is designed to operate incandescent light or dimmable compact fluorescent light with a maximum load of 200W at 120VAC. Light bulbs must be dimmable in order to achieve dimming function.

3. PROGRAMMING TRANSMITTERS

In order to operate the Screw-In Dimmer remotely with a transmitter or sensor, it must be programmed to the Screw-In Dimmer. Each module can be operated by up to 8 different transmitters (or 8 different command signals).

There are 3 operating modes with the Screw-In Dimmer:

1)Regular Mode - When a valid signal is received, it will turn on or off a light or change the brightness of a light.

2)Flashing Alert Mode - When a valid signal is received, the light will flash for a specific period of time, which is the time defined in the timer duration. This works as an alert indication.

3)Countdown Timer Mode - When a valid signal is received, the light will be on for a specific period of time, from 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, and 60 minutes, then turn off.

You can program multiple transmitters / sensors to the module and different transmitter / sensor can activate a different mode.

To program a transmitter / Sensor into the Screw-In Dimmer, follow the instructions below.

Before you program a transmitter to the Screw-In Dimmer, decide the operating mode for this transmitter (Regular Mode, Flashing Alert Mode or Countdown Timer Mode).

7. Once the transmitter is programmed, the red LED on the Screw-In

Dimmer flashes quickly then stops flashing. You have successfully

programmed the transmitter.

Note: You must complete the programming sequence within the

15-second interval after you power on the Screw-in Dimmer, otherwise, the module will quit from programming mode and you need to start again from step 3 if the red LED is off.

You may follow the same instructions to program additional transmitters or sensors to operate the receiver module.

4. SET TIMER DURATION

This section is for transmitters that are programmed for Flashing Alert Mode and Countdown Timer Mode.

The timer for both Flashing Alert Mode and Countdown Timer Mode can be set to the following duration, meaning the light will stay on for the following time: 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes. Only one timer interval can be set. To set the timer duration, follow the instructions below.

1. Screw-In Dimmer should be powered up.

2. If the light bulb is on after power-up, turn it off with a programmed TC transmitter.
