QS Wallbox Closure Interface
The QSE-CI-WCI (WCI) is a control interface for use
with HomeWorks® QS systems, Quantum® systems,
and QS standalone applications. The WCI integrates a
contact closure keypad with a Lutron® lighting control
system. The contact closure keypad must be provided
by the customer. The WCI provides up to eight
contact closure inputs (CCIs). The CCIs accept
maintained or momentary signals. The CCIs are
programmable through the HomeWorks® QS and
Quantum® system setup software. For QS standalone
applications, the CCIs are programmable using the
button, DIP switch, and LEDs on the WCI.
Shown actual size.
Features
• Provides 8 contact closure inputs (CCIs), maintained
or momentary.
• Works with IEC PELV / NEC® Class 2, low-voltage, dry
contact closures.
• The CCI can be set up to simulate existing Lutron®
keypad functionality or custom-configured to meet
project-specific requirements.
• Place in the wallbox behind a contact closure keypad
(See Mounting).
• Provides a 1-way interface between the Lutron®
lighting system and a contact closure keypad (not
supplied).
• For use in HomeWorks® QS systems, Quantum®
systems, and QS standalone applications.
Additional Programming Details
• In HomeWorks® QS and Quantum® systems, the
8 CCIs are individually programmable through the
appropriate setup software.
• For QS standalone applications, the DIP switch allows
for selection of CCI control options:
- With or without raise/lower controls.
- With all momentary or all maintained CCIs.
• LEDs provide instant feedback during setup and
diagnostics;
- Confirmation when programming.

Specifications
Regulatory Approvals
• CE marked
• Complies with IEC standards 60669-2-1 and
50428:2005
• If UL listing is required, please contact Lutron
Input Power
• Operating Voltage: 24 V- 20 mA
• Low Voltage IEC PELV/NEC® Class 2 wiring provides
power, derived from QS link. Consumes one Power
Draw Unit (PDU).
Contact Closure Input Types
• The QSE-CI-WCI (WCI) is compatible with both
momentary and maintained contact closure inputs
(CCIs).
• Contact closure keypad must have a low voltage, dry
contact closure rating.
• CCIs must have an on-state saturation voltage less
than 1 V at 1 mA and an off-state leakage current of
less than 100 uA. Contact manufacturer of the contact
closure keypad for details.
• The signal pulse for the CCI must be greater than
40 ms. Contact manufacturer of the contact closure
keypad for details.
• The WCI is not designed or rated to work with line/
mains voltage switches. Use with line/mains voltage
switches will result in premature failure.

Environment
• Ambient Operating Temperature: 0-40 °C (32-104 °F)
• Relative Humidity less than 90%, non-condensing
• For indoor use only
Terminals
• Each terminal accepts up to two 1.0 mm2 (18 AWG)
wires, one twisted shielded pair 0.5 mm2 (22 AWG)
wire or one 4.0 mm2 (12 AWG) wire typical.
Mounting
• Recommended to be placed in the wallbox behind a
contact closure keypad.
• Lutron recommends using a wallbox which is 60 mm
(2 1⁄2 in) deep x 60 mm (2 1⁄2 in) wide, when installing
the WCI. Note: Some applications may require a
deeper wallbox.
• If alternative mounting is required, do not extend wiring
harness more than 45 m (150 ft).
QS Link Limits
• Please refer to the system spec for details regarding
your application.
