Dimmer Inputs
These are the Inputs that are located on the Dimmer Card they are designed to function with Zone 5
Switch Stations. These Zone 5 switch stations are connected via a CAT5 cable into an RJ45 connector
located on the Dimming Card. Typically ON/OFF or Preset functions will be programmed in the Dimmer
Input section. The Z5-SW-OO switch is an ON/OFF switch which will be an “A” (for the ON) and a “B” (for
the OFF”) functionality.
Note: If a Raise /Lower switch is to be used, programming is NOT completed in this section. (See
Dimmers)
