120VAC, 60Hz
For use with Mark 10TM Powerline and Tu-Wire® dimmable ballasts
Installation Instructions DI-000-VPX10-02A
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS: WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS:
• To be installed and/or used in accordance with appropriate electrical codes and regulations. • Lamps must be burned in at full intensity for 100 hours prior to dimming for proper dimming performance.
• If you are unsure about any part of these instructions, consult a qualified electrician. • For new installations, wire a test switch before installing dimmer.
• To avoid overheating and possible damage to this device and other equipment, use only with the appropriate Advance Transformer 120V Mark 10™ Powerline or Lutron Tu-Wire® • Total minimum load must exceed 40W.
electronic ballasts for controlling the specific fluorescent lamps. • Dimmer may feel warm to the touch during normal operation.
• When retrofitting Mark 10™ Powerline dimming ballasts into fixtures that originally had Instant Start ballasts, the sockets MUST be replaced with Rapid Start sockets to allow proper • Recommended minimum wall box depth is 2-1/2".
dimmer operation and prevent damage to the dimmer ballast. Refer to the instructions provided with the ballast. • Maximum wire length from dimmer to all installed remotes cannot exceed 300 ft (90 m).
• Vizia +™ dimmers are not compatible with standard 3-way or 4-way switches. They must be used with compatible Vizia +™ remotes for multi-location dimming. • Disconnect power at circuit breaker or fuse when servicing, installing or removing fixture.
• Use only one (1) Vizia +™ dimmer in a multi-location circuit with up to 9 coordinating remotes without LEDs or up to 4 matching remotes with LEDs. The remote(s) will turn the light on • Use this device only with copper or copper clad wire. With aluminum wire use only devices marked CO/ALR or CU/AL.
