Requirements:
- Requires a neutral (white) connection wire.
- If you are using an HAI home control system with your switch you must install an UPB™ PIM & cable (HAI Part Number 36A00-1).
- If you are using the HAI Upstart Configuration software you must install an UPB™ PIM & cable (HAI Part Number 36A00-1) and a cable to connect your PIM to a computer (HAI Part Number 36A05-2).
Recommendation:
HAI recommends that every HLC installation include a Phase Coupler (HAI Part Number 39A00-1).
These 1500W switches use heavy duty components and
UPB™ communication technology for professional strength, reliability, and the ability to be remotely controlled by UPB™ compatible home control systems. They work over existing house wiring for easy installation in renovations, retrofits, and upgrades and are UL-Listed.
The HAI UPB™ 1500W Switch is capable of storing up to 16 preset light levels to create powerful lighting scenes. It is capable of being set to a non-dimming mode (see Configuration Software below) in order to control loads, such as fluorescent lights, that do not belong on a dimming switch.
