Application
Aspire RF™ Accessory Dimmers replace regular switches or dimmers to provide local and remote ON/OFF/DIM/BRIGHT control.
The device also provides multi-location control or virtual 3-way remote ON/OFF/DIM/BRIGHT control without the need for traditional
3-way wiring or a dedicated traveler wire. Aspire RF Accessory Dimmers provide other programmable functions (scenes, events,
association, child lockout, etc.) when used with Aspire RF or other Z-Wave® compliant controller*. Each dimmer can be manually
controlled and remotely controlled by commands sent from an Aspire RF controller (RFHDCSG, RFTDCSG, RFBER) or other
Z-Wave compatible controllers or programs. Aspire RF Dimmers utilize existing 120V/AC 60Hz standard house wiring and fit
in standard wallboxes. No new wiring is needed. *Note: some specific Aspire RF features may not be programmable.

Performance
Rating: 120 V/AC, 60Hz
Uses 300 Series Z-Wave chip @ 40Kbs
Performance
Consideration
For best performance, an Aspire RF™
Z-Wave® enabled device must be within
60 feet of another Z-Wave enabled device
to participate in a Z-Wave wireless mesh
network. Any one dimmer or switch can be
associated with up to 5 devices (dimmers,
switches, receptacles or plug-in modules).
Note: For multi-location control, use RF Smart Dimmer Masters direct
wired to light along with RF Accessory. The RF Accessory does not
require direct connections to the light (use RF association function).
