Instructions
Overview
The line powered SENSORWORX® remote dimming and on/off wall stations provide manual operation of wirelessly controlled lighting. Also called companion switches, these attractive wall stations greatly reduce total installation time and wireless pairing fuss. Requiring just a few seconds per device, SENSORWORX wireless sensors can be linked to one or more wireless load controllers (such as the SWX-851 wireless wall switch, SWX-874 phase dimmer, or a SWX-950 series wireless power pack). Additionally, these devices can be configured to work together with other wireless or wired wall stations to provide dimming and switching control from multiple locations.
Applications
Adding a wireless remote wall switch to a room controlled by a wireless power pack (SWX-950) and a wireless sensor (e.g. SWX-221-B) enables code compliant vacancy (manual on) operation. When linked with a wireless dimming power pack (SWX-950-D2), a remote wireless dimmer is perfect for providing user control of 0-10V dimmable lighting. Additional remote dimmer switches can be linked enabling user control from multiple locations. Linking a remote wireless switch to a wireless wall switch load controller (SWX-851) or phase dimmer (SWX-874) enables 3-way user control as well.

Operation Notes
-
Wireless remote switches and dimmers only transmit when a button is being pressed.
-
The unit’s blue LED will light only when a button is pressed.
-
The Raise and Lower 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 SWX-854-2 wireless remote dimmer.
Wireless Linking (Pairing)
Pairing a remote dimmer/switch with a wireless wall switch load controller or power pack load controller is quickly done via the following procedure:
Step 1. Enter pairing mode by holding down the wireless load controller’s button for 3 seconds until the LED starts alternating white then blue.
Step 2. At the remote dimmer/switch, hold down the ON button for 3 seconds until the LED starts alternating white then blue. Releasing will pair the device with the controller in pairing mode (see note 1 below). The lights will toggle once as confirmation.
Step 3. If additional remote dimmers or switches need to be linked, repeat step 2.
Step 4. When all devices have been paired, close pairing mode on the wireless load controller by pressing the button 1 time. Pairing will also be automatically closed after 15 minutes of no new devices being linked.
Note 1: When in pairing mode, the alternating LED colors on the wireless load controller will periodically pause and blink out the total number of paired devices. There will be no blinks during the pause until the first device is linked.
