Dimmer to Circuit Patch
Your device, depending on the model, may have a number of
dimmers. These dimmers must be assigned (patched) to a
network channel. Just like zones, a dimmer may belong to only 1
network channel. However, a dimmer may belong to up to (4)
groups. Unlike zones, there is no separate menu structure for the
dimmer/circuit patch. It is handled as part of dimmer
configuration. For additional information on the implementation
of a dimmer/circuit patch, please see “Configuring Dimmers” on
page 28.
Notes on Patching
• The default patch for zones, is a consecutive patch starting
at zone 1, channel 1.
• The default patch for dimmers, is a consecutive patch
starting at dimmer 1, network channel 1.
• Zones and dimmers need not be patch consecutively
• If you’re using the D4206 or D4006, the dimmers will
respond to any network command from any network device
for that channel.
• If you’re using a D4200 or D4206, the zones can be
patched to any network channel, 1-2048, and can control
any circuit “listening” to that channel.
• If you’re using a D410x, the dimmers will only respond to
commands issued from the controller containing the
dimmers and they do not have any patch settings.
