Dialog System Overview
Refer to
individual
data sheets for
part #’s and
descriptions.
DESCRIPTION
• All of the Dialog devices (relay
drivers, dimming devices,
switches, etc.) connect to a
single, common pair of wires:
the Dialog data signal.
• Data signal provides data and
power for most Input devices
and data to the outputs.
Input Devices
Input Devices consist of:
• Switches.
• Occupancy Sensors.
• Photo Sensors.
• Contact Input Units.
An Input Device can be set to:
• An individual relay (ON/OFF).
• An individual Dimmer (dim up/down).
• A group of outputs (ON/OFF, Dim Up/Down).
• A preset (scene).
• A mode (logic, e.g. Enable/Disable, timeout,
quiet mode).
Outputs
• 256 Relay outputs.
• 256 Dimmer outputs.
• Each input device (switch,
occpancy sensor, photo sensor,
contact input unit) is targeted to
either an output address or to a
collection of outputs that are
addressed as groups or presets.
More than one input device can
be set to the same target.
• Total wire length with no
amplifier(s) is 3000ft (900m),
with the longest length not
exceeding 1000ft (300m) from
the LCU.
• For systems that require a
higher number of outputs, a
multi-LCU system can be
utilized.

Power
• Most Dialog input devices do
not require 24VAC. They draw
their power from the 2
conductor data signal. Dialog
devices installed in panels that
do require 24VAC are the
Lighting Control Unit and Relay
Drivers.
• The Dialog data signal supplies
500mA of power for devices.
• Input devices targeted to a
group or preset require
programming. How presets and
mode settings are to behave is
also programmed. There are
127 groups, 512 local presets
and 512 global presets.
An Output Device
can be set to:
• Activate individual
and global presets.
• Activate individual
and global photo
control settings.

• Pair (2-conductors) of 18AWG SOLID wire.
• LVT type cable is recommended. LVT wire is commonly used for thermostats and similar Low Voltage Type (LVT) applications.
This wire is typically sold with either a Red or Brown insulation.
• Common part numbers are: LVT18-02, LVTP18-02. The ‘P’ type designates ‘parallel’ (non-twisted). Twisted or non-twisted is
acceptable
Solid Wire vs. Stranded Wire
Technical
SOLID
STRANDED
ADVANTAGES:
ADVANTAGES:
• Easier and faster to work with when making termination
to screw type terminals.
DISADVANTAGES:
• Not as easy to form to the necessary shape that may be
required.
• Flexibility is quite useful for tight space applications
DISADVANTAGES:
• Individual strands may not be secured by the terminal
connection. These strands can touch the adjacent
terminal causing a short.
• Cannot be reformed easily.
*CAUTION NOTE*
• Do not use both stranded and solid wire under the same terminal connection. The solid wire
will hold the connection at one end while the stranded will compact and lose connection,
perhaps even falling out all together.

DIALOG SWITCH STATIONS
• The Dialog switch devices come in 1 to 8 button modules to provide flexible
and attractive solutions for the switching of your lighting control system.
• Switch modules only require connection to the 2-wire data signal. Should
a switch station require expansion, connect extra module to existing data
signal. No special cat 5 connectors needed.

Dialog Signal Switches
INSTALLATION
• Connect the 2-wire Dialog signal to the back of each switch
module and install modules in standard wall boxes.
• Each switch module must have an output address or group
code assigned.
• A Dialog system local network can have a total of 256 outputs
and 127 group codes. A group code can host one, some or
all of the output addresses. There is no limit to the number of
switches that can be set to the same address or group code.
Dialog Signal Connection
• Simple 2 conductor connection.
• Switch can be connected to the data signal while it is live.
• Set the output’s address to the switch using the WIR-3110.
- To do more complex controls, set the switch to target a group
code. Program the outputs that the group code controls using
the WLC-3150.
• A switch targeted at a group code requires the group code to
have an existing program to function.
• A switch targeted directly to an output address requires no
extra programming.

4mA.
• Connect switches to the 2 conductor data signal. No other
connections required.
• The maximum one way measurement from the controller to the
switch device is 1000' . Should longer lengths be needed, use
WAM-3190 amplifier.
• The Dialog system switches draw 24VAC power from the 2
conductor data signal. Each switch uses 4mA of power. There
is 500mA of total power available from the Dialog signal for
all devices. If power is insufficient, use WAM-3190 amplifiers
for additional 500mA.

WSK-3502
• Switches targeted directly at an output address require no
programming. Switch targeted at a group code require
programming with the WLC-3150.
• A push button switch can send standard action commands:
- ON/OFF (outputs or groups)
- Dim UP/DOWN (outputs or groups)
- Presets 1 to 8 (groups only)
- In addition to standard action commands (for example: turn
ON and set to 80% dim level), presets can also set operating
modes. Modes determine how Input Devices (including
switches) and outputs of the group are to behave.
- Example 1: quiet time switch: disable motion sensor for 1
hour.
- Example 2: during off hours, switch is to operate with a 30
minute timed-ON;
- Example 3: for this period of time lock output to this level and
allow nothing to change it.
