Instructions
Overview
SENSORWORX digital dimmers and switches provide manual operation of controlled lighting zones. Available in several configurations (i.e. single/dual switch, single/dual dimmer) and colors, these stylish single-gang devices are intuitive for end users. Additionally, they can be utilized with other SENSORWORX digital wall stations to provide dimming and switching control from multiple locations within a space. All SENSORWORX products are proudly made in the USA.
The SENSORWORX digital suite of products communicate over a topology-free, 3-wire data line connection. Wiring uses common 18/3 cable & wire nuts, thus eliminating the issues that plague CAT-5 based systems. These individually addressable wall stations are digitally zoned together with load controllers and sensors via one of three methods. The first is the out-of-the-box single zone default configuration, the second (for multi-zone applications) is by using a push-button pairing sequence, and the third is via the SENSORWORX mobile application (also requires SWD-940 Advanced Load Controller). Once paired, a digital control zone can be highly configured with several operating modes, dimming settings, and photocell parameters.
Applications
Adding a digital dual zone remote wall switch to a room controlled by a two SENSORWORX digital load controllers (SWD-900) and a SENSORWORX digital sensor (e.g. SWD-201) enables code compliant vacancy (manual on) operation of each zone. A digital dual zone remote dimmer is perfect for providing raise/lower control of each zone.
The 2-zone switch (SWD-802-2P) and the 2-zone dimmer (SWD-804-2P) pair to each zone independently.
Additional remote dimmers & switches can be paired, enabling user control from multiple locations (3-way & multi-way).

Operation Notes
-
The unit’s LED (top or bottom) that is associated with the zone being controlled will light blue when a button is pressed.
-
The dim up and dim down buttons may be held down to increase dimming rate.
-
The DIM UP and DIM DOWN buttons may be held down to increase dimming rate.
-
There are always 20 equal steps of dim level (voltage) adjustment from high trim to low trim (or reverse) when using a SWD-804 or SWD-804-2P remote dimmer.

Digital Zone Configuration
A. Out-of-the-Box (single zone only)
B. Push-Button Pairing (required for multi-zone)
C. Mobile App Pairing (requires a SWD-940 on digital data line)
A. OUT-OF-THE-BOX FUNCTIONALITY
By default, digital load controllers listen to all devices connected via the data line. This enables installers to immediately verify all device wiring, and provides instant control of single zone rooms. Default listening is cancelled once 1st device is paired via method below.
B. PUSH-BUTTON PAIRING (SEE DIAGRAM BELOW)
Step 1. Enter pairing mode by holding down the button on the load controller to be linked for 3 seconds until the LED starts alternating white then blue.
Step 2. At the switch/dimmer, hold down the button (see diagram below) for 3 seconds until the LED starts alternating white then blue. Upon release the load controller will be paired (i.e. linked) to the switch/dimmer. The lights will toggle once as confirmation.
Step 3. Repeat step 2 to link additional switches/dimmers (or sensors).
Step 4. When all devices have been linked, exit pairing mode on the load controller by pressing its button 1 time. Exiting will also occur automatically after 15 minutes of no new devices being linked.
Note 1: When in pairing mode, the alternating LED colors on the load controller will periodically pause and blink out the total number of linked devices. There will be no blinks during the pause until the first device is linked via the push-button (or mobile app.) pairing process.
Note 2: Once the first remote device has been paired to the load controller it will stop listening to all non-paired devices on the data line.
C. MOBILE APP PAIRING
Note: Requires a SWD-940 Advanced Load Controller be on the same data line as the sensor.
Installation Options
- Designed to mount in 1-gang wall box with 3.28” hole spacing.
- Units can also share multiple gang wall boxes with other devices.
- Faces and buttons can be replaced without uninstalling the device to change colors.
