D4200
The D4200 Architectural Lighting Controller puts total lighting
control at your fingertips. This single panel provides a wide
range of capabilities: create and save lighting scenes, switch
lights and scenes instantly or with gradual fades, and offers
complete control of many lighting zones.
Preset Control
• Eight preset select buttons on the face, each with indicating
pilot light.
• Eight additional preset scenes stored in the control unit,
accessible from the wall station or remotely.
• Liquid crystal display (LCD) readout shows preset names such
as “Breakfast,” “Lunch,” “Happy Hour,” etc. Names are easily
changed on site as needed.
• LCD readout displays lighting-zone names such as
“Chandelier,” “Down Light,” “Pendants,” etc. Names are easily
changed on site as needed.
• Electronic lock prevents changes to the stored preset
information. Deeper locks prevent changes to timed events
and other programming.
• All memories are retained during power outages. Lighting is
restored to the scene selected prior to any power outage.
Displays and Operations
• Maximum light-select button and “off” button on the face,
each with indicating pilot light.
• Built in sequence functions.
• LCD readout displays exact intensity settings from 0 to 100%.
• Controls up to 16 zones, more than enough for most
applications.
• Each zone has individual raise/lower buttons for individual
adjustment.
• Master raise/lower buttons are provided to operate all zone
intensities up or down proportionately.
• Each zone has an information (status) button for LCD
readouts of zone names and intensity settings.
• Smooth continuous Square Law curve for all sources, or
on/off non-dim outputs are selectable for all zones.
• LED light-level indicators show relative light intensities of each
zone with long-life green displays.
• Smooth fades with times adjustable from 0 to 59 seconds,
and 1 to 59 minutes. Fade time can be set differently for each
scene.
Timer
• Built in clock allows presets to be called up according to the
time of day.
• An astro time clock selects presets referenced to sunrise and
sunset, and the time of year.
Remote Control
• Contains infrared receiver to operate with handheld remote
control to select 8 or 16 scenes, plus maximum and “off.”
Operation is similar to a TV remote control.
Appearance
• Snap-on faceplate shows no visible means of attachment.
• Color availability is a white base with a white door, or white
base with black translucent door. Lighted LEDs are visible
through the translucent door.
Environment
• Operating temperature ranges from 32° to 104° Fahrenheit (0
- 40° C). Relative humidity less that 90% non-condensing.
Additional Features
• Link up to 127 devices including main control units and wall
stations. Control up to 512 zones.
• Operates at low voltage, class 2, 12VDC.
• Tested to withstand static discharge without damage.
• Low voltage class 2 wiring connects multiple wall stations and
dimmer cabinets. Just 2 data wires and 2 low voltage power
wires are all that are needed from location to location, even in
complex systems.

Installation

D4200
.........................
The Dimension D4200 control system installation is simplified
by using digital communications between stations, which
require only data line and control power wiring to all remote
control devices and the dimmer cabinet or cabinets.
Pre Installation
Mount 4 gang (deep) back box in wall and pull data and
control power wires between all remote control stations and
the dimmer cabinet(s). Recommended data cable is Belden
9829, Alpha 6222C or Plenum rated Belden 88102 or
equivalent. For control power use #14 or larger, preferably
stranded wire.
Installation - with all power off.
To snap off the cover plate, grasp the rear of the unit
approximately in the center. Open the door all the way.
Grasping the door, pull up and outward and the top of the face
plate will snap loose. Close the door and push down and
outward on the face plate to snap loose the bottom fasteners.
Strip all wires in back box. The power wires on the D4200
have a pigtail already attached so that one or more wires can
be attached using wire nuts to each. The data wires are
attached to terminals 1 and 2. Maintain the same wire color
coding throughout the installation. Example: if red is
designated to connect to terminal #1, then the red wire should
be connected to terminal #1 on all stations in the installation.
The last station on each end of the data line must have a
jumper wire run between terminal 2 and 5 to “terminate” the
line impedance. Typically the dimmer cabinet would be one
end of the data line, and the furthest remote station would be
the other end of the data line.
Push all wires carefully into the back box, and use the
mounting screws provided to affix the unit to the back box.
The screws should be tightened firmly, but not so tightly as to
distort the housing. The front cover should then be pushed up
from the bottom taking care that it is all the way up and the
switches are all clear through the front panel. The top can then
be pushed straight back to snap the fasteners into place.
If there are remote stations to work with the master D4200
stations, these were likely preprogrammed at the factory and
assigned numbers that identify the stations on the network.
They will be identified with their network identification number
(ID) written on their side. If there are multiple D4200’s and
remote stations, the remote stations have been assigned to a
specific D4200 unit. The remote stations must be installed in
the same room system with the D4200 to which they were
assigned.
With all stations now in place the power can be turned on and
referring to the instruction manuals shipped with the unit, they
can be tested for function. Some systems have the control
panels preprogrammed prior to shipment from the factory, and
are so labeled. Systems that are not factory preprogrammed
require some job specific programming. The instruction sheets
packed with the units describe in detail the programming
steps.
The above one line diagram illustrates how a typical system
might go together. If only a single D4200 control is being used
there would be a low voltage data and power line between the
cabinet and control. If more controls are used on the system,
then the control wiring is extended on to the other controls.
The controls can be in any order on the data line and since they
have individual ID numbers they can communicate from any
position on the line.
The D4200 controls may be used with many different Leviton
Dimmer Cabinets and systems. Compatibility is assured
between any control and dimmer cabinet furnished as a
system.
Further information about these controls can be obtained from
the detailed installation and operations manuals which are
shipped with each system.
