NOTES:
(1) The maximum load requirements for fluorescent, CFL and LED loads
can vary greatly depending upon the specific fixture and/or bulb being
used. These load types have significant in-rush current which can trip the
protection circuitry on the device.
(2) The quality and performance of these load types varies greatly
from manufacturer to manufacturer. When using these load types, we
recommend testing in advance. If problems are found, simply changing to
a dierent bulb manufacturer may solve the problem.
(3) Additionally, we do not recommend the use of fluorescent, CFL, or
LED loads without a neutral wire connected to the dimmer due to the
capacitive nature of these load types.
(4) Wiring with a neutral is always the preferred wiring method (if
possible).
Warnings and considerations
WARNING! Turn OFF electrical power before installing or servicing this
product. Improper use or installation can cause SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH
or LOSS/DAMAGE OF PROPERTY.
ATTENTION! Coupez l’alimentation électrique avant d’installer ou de
réparer ce produit. Une mauvaise installation ou utilisation peut entraîner
des blessures graves, décès ou perte / dommages à la propriété.
WARNING! This device must be protected by a circuit breaker (20A max).
ATTENTION! Cet appareil doit être protégé par un disjoncteur (20A max.)
WARNING! Ground this device in accordance with the National Electric
Code (NEC) requirements. DO NOT rely solely upon the yoke plate’s
contact with a metal wallbox for adequate grounding. Use the device’s
ground wire to make a secure connection to the safety ground of the
electrical system.
ATTENTION! Cet appareil doit être en conformité avec le Code national
de l’électricité (NEC). Ne comptez pas uniquement au contact de la
plaque avant avec un boîtier mural métallique pour la mise à la terre
adéquate. Utilisez cet appareil à la terre de l’appareil pour établir une
connexion sécurisée au système électrique.

Introduction
The Control4® Adaptive Phase Dimmer operates independently or as part of a
Control4 home automation system. It installs in a standard back box using typical
wiring standards and communicates to the Control4 system using a wireless
connection.

Specifications and supported load types
Model numbers C4-APD120-xx, C4-APD277-xx
Power requirements C4-APD120: 120V AC +/-10%, 50/60 Hz
C4-APD277: 277V AC +/-10%, 50/60 Hz
This device can function with or without a
neutral AC connection depending on load type.
Wiring with a neutral is always the preferred
wiring method (if possible). See load types and
“Sample Wiring Configurations” below.
When wired without a neutral, loads may
appear dimmer.
