Important Notes Danger - For any procedure other than routine lamp replacement, including device addressing, power must be disconnected at the main electrical panel. Codes: Install in accordance with all local and national electrical codes. Note: Alternate wiring methods may be used for the Class 2 wiring connection. Provisions in the 2005 National Electrical Code® (Article 725-54) allow Class 2 conductors of the HWV-600D, -1000D, -FDB8A, and -1000NS to occupy the same outlet box as the power conductors. Consult the National Electrical Code® Handbook and the local electrical inspector before proceeding. Danger: These controls must not be used to control equipment which is not visible from every control location. They must also not be used to control equipment which could create hazardous situations such as entrapment if operated accidentally. Examples of such equipment which must not be operated by these controls include (but are not limited to) motorized gates, garage doors, industrial doors, microwave ovens, heating pads, etc. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the equipment being controlled is visible from every control location and that only suitable equipment is connected to these controls. Overheat Damage: To reduce the risk of overheating and possibly damaging other equipment, do not install to control receptacles or motor-operated appliances. Environment: Ambient operating temperature: 0-40 °C (32-104 °F) 0-90% humidity, non-condensing. Indoor use only. It is normal for dimmers and switches to feel warm to the touch during operation. Spacing: If mounting one control above another, leave at least 4-1/2 in. (114 mm) vertical space between them. Lamp Type: HWV-600D and -1000D are designed for use with permanently installed incandescent, magnetic low-voltage, or tungsten halogen only. HWV-FDB-8A is designed for use with Lutron® Hi-lume® FDB or Eco-10TM Electronic Fluorescent Dimming Ballasts only. HWV-1000NS is designed for use with all permanently installed lighting loads1. The HWV-FDB-8A and -1000NS controls require a neutral connection in the wallbox. If your wallbox does not have a neutral wire, one must be run. The controls will not operate without one. Lutron Electronics Co., Inc. 7200 Suter Road Coopersburg, PA 18036-1299
rents listed on each ballast connected to this control. The total line current can not exceed the maximum load capacity rating. Warning: Do not exceed a maximum of 20 ballasts per control providing it does not exceed the maximum load rating (see Derating Charts under “Multigang Installations”).
Low-Voltage Applications: Use HWV-600D and -1000D with magnetic (core and coil) low-voltage transformers only. Not for use with electronic (solid-state) low-voltage transformers. Operation of a low-voltage circuit with lamps inoperative or removed may result in transformer overheating and premature failure. Lutron strongly recommends the following: a. Do not operate low-voltage circuits without operative lamps in place. b. Replace burned-out lamps as quickly as possible. c. Use transformers that incorporate thermal protection or fused transformer primary windings to prevent transformer failure due to overcurrent. Dimming Fluorescent Lamps: For proper dimming performance lamps must be operated at full intensity for 100 hours prior to dimming. Wallplates: Do not paint controls or wallplates. Cleaning: To clean, wipe with a clean damp cloth. DO NOT use any chemical cleaning solutions. Wallboxes: Lutron recommends using 3-1/2 in. (89 mm) deep wallboxes for easier installation. Several controls may be installed in one multigang wallbox - see Derating Chart. Single Location Installations: When using controls in single location installations, cut off the uninsulated portion of the control’s multi-location wire (blue wire) and cap off using one of the provided wire connectors. DO NOT connect the blue wire to any other wiring or to ground. Auxiliary Controls: Use only Lutron Vareo Auxiliary Tapswitches (VETS-R) with HWV-600D, -1000D, -FDB-8A, and -1000NS controls. Up to 9 VETS-R controls may be used with a HomeWorks Vareo Dimmer or Switch. Mechanical 3- or 4-way switches will not work. 1 The -1000NS Switch is UL Listed for use with all magnetic fluorescent ballasts and the electronic fluorescent ballasts listed below.

Multigang Installations
Installation Danger - Locate and remove fuse or lock circuit breaker in the OFF position before proceeding.
In multigang installations, several controls are grouped horizontally in one multigang wallbox. When combining controls in a wallbox, remove inner side sections prior to wiring (See Side Section Removal below). Do not remove outer sections. Derating is required (see Derating Charts below). To remove side sections: Bend side sections back and forth with pliers. Repeat until side sections break off. Use a file or sandpaper to remove any burrs or excess metal. Note: For no side sections removed in a multigang installation, refer to Lutron catalog P/N 360-178.
Side Section Removal DO NOT Remove Outer Side Sections

4. Using a sharp utility knife or drywall saw, create a notch (~1/4 in.) in the drywall above the top right hand corner of the wallbox (see Figure 1) Note:
This notch must be large enough to allow the butt splices (included) to pass through the wall, yet small enough to be covered when the wallplate is installed.

Prewire for System Communications: Controls have Class 2 remote-circuit wires (gray, violet) that exit at the top of the control and connect to the HomeWorks Dimmer Interface (HWI-D48). Pull NEC Class 2 (IEC PELV) wires from each wallbox location that contains a control to an HWI-D48. Use 18 to 22 AWG, twisted, shielded, 2-conductor wire. Dimmer communications wiring may be in a daisychain, star, or t-tap configuration. Each home run on a bus may be up to 500 ft. (152 m) and may contain up to 4 devices. The total length of wire on each bus (all home runs) may be up to 1000 ft. (305 m). Up to 48 dimmer or switch devices may be wired to the HomeWorks Dimmer Interface (HWI-D48).
Address Devices Danger - Address should be set prior to installation. If the address needs to be changed after installation, locate and remove fuse or lock circuit breaker in the OFF position before proceeding. Up to 4 HomeWorks Vareo devices can be wired to each Vareo bus of a HomeWorks panel. Assign a unique address to each device using the DIP switch through the front of the yoke. See Figure 1 below for DIP switch settings. Be sure to record the addresses for future programming purposes.

Pushing the Tapswitch on any HomeWorks Vareo control will alternately turn the lights ON and OFF. For HVW-1000D, -600D and -FDB-8A the on level will be the slider level. To adjust the lighting level for the HomeWorks Vareo dimmers, move the mini-slide up or down. Quickly pushing the Tapswitch twice for the HomeWorks Vareo dimmers or the VETS-R controls connected to it will adjust the lights to full; pressing and holding the Tapswitch 1/2 second activates a 10 second fade-to-off. To remove all fade action from the dimmer, turn the dimmer off. Pull the FASSTM down while depressing the Tapswitch. Push the FASS up and hold the Tapswitch for about 10 seconds until the light turns on. The fade is now disabled. To restore the fade action, repeat the same procedure. Lamp Replacement For routine lamp replacement, power may be removed from the fixtures by pulling down the clear Front-Accessible Service Switch (FASS) until the word "OFF" is visible. Refer to Figure 6. After replacing lamps, push the switch back into the UP position to operate lamps.

Short Circuit Check: Check new installations for short circuits before installing control(s). With power OFF, install standard switch(es) between hot and load. Restore power. If lights don’t work or a breaker trips, check wiring. Correct wiring and check again. Install control(s) only when short is no longer present. Warranty is void if control is turned ON with a shorted load. 1. Turn power OFF at fusebox or circuit breaker.
6. Crimp the violet and gray wires of the control to the NEC Class 2 (IEC PELV) wires connected to the HWI-D48. Use the butt splices provided (see Figure 4). Push the NEC Class 2 (IEC PELV) wires and butt splices through the hole in the drywall. This provides the necessary separation required by the National Electrical Code®.
