• (24) Remote #2, (24) relays, 49-72 (out of box config)
• (4) Remote #1, (4) relays, starting relay number 0 (out of box config)
• (4) Remote #2, (4) relays, starting relay number 0 (out of box config)
• (4) Remote #3, (4) relays, starting relay number 0 (out of box config)
You will note that there are substantial conflicts with the out of the box configuration.
Therefore, the new configuration will look like this:
• (8) Master cabinet, (8) relays, but # of local relays is 1-8
• (24) Remote #1, (24) relays, relay numbers 9-32
• (24) Remote #2, (24) relays, relay numbers 33-56
• (4) Remote #1, (4) relays, relay numbers 57-60
• (4) Remote #2, (4) relays, relay numbers 61-64
• (4) Remote #3, (4) relays, relay numbers 65-68
In order to achieve this configuration, the following configuration changes must be
made:
1 The number of local relays, a setting under Global Defaults on the master
cabinet, must be reduced to 8;
2 The two (24) relay cabinets must be configured from a PC over USB as
starting relay numbers 9 and 33;(See “Remote Cabinet Configuration” on
page 135.)
3 The three (4) relay remotes, must be configured via the control module
dipswitch, for starting relay numbers 57, 61, & 65.

Department. The phone number can be found on the back page of this manual.
Relay Numbering Chart
Leviton recommends that when planning your network, you fill out the chart on the
following page, or other similar chart which you prefer to document your system. This
completed chart should be stored with your master relay panel complete with the
circuit schedules of all of the relay panels. For an example circuit schedule, see
page 41.
