Introduction

Features and Functions

The iLux® units, CLS-C6 and CLS-C6M, are
wall-mounted complete integrated lighting systems that
can function as standalone devices and/or be part of a
total Crestron® solution. The units are functionally
identical except that the CLS-C6M includes a built-in
motion sensor.

Important Notes

Read before installation.

• Codes: Install in accordance with all local and
national electrical codes.

• Wiring: Use copper wire only. For supply
connections, use wires rated for at least 75° C.

• Lighting Load Types: incandescent, magnetic
low voltage, neon/cold cathode, dimmable
2-wire fluorescent, and non-dim lighting
(also: electronic low voltage, 3-wire and 0-10V
fluorescent, and 277V via expansion modules;
sold separately).

• Temperature: The iLux units are designed for
use where temperatures are between 32° to
104° F (0° to 40° C).

• Wallboxes: The iLux units mount in standard
4-gang wallboxes; 3.5 inches (89 mm) deep,
minimum.

• Make certain that power is turned off, and
ensure that there is at least 4.5 inches (115 mm)
of open space above and below the electrical box
location to permit heat dissipation.

Installation

WARNING: Turn off power at the distribution panel
circuit breaker. Installing with power on can result in
serious personal injury and damage to the device.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of overheating and
possible damage to other equipment, do not install to
control a receptacle or a motor-operated appliance.

NOTE: The CLS-C6 units require a neutral wire for
operation.

The following tools/hardware are required for installation.

1. Feed the wires (power line from the distribution
panel, load wires, plus any required Cresnet
cables) through the holes in the wallbox.

2. Hold the rear of the CLS-C6M unit and remove
the front panel and cover assembly by carefully
pulling out and up from the bottom edge.

3. Remove the control panel overlay from the unit
(it is held in place by small tabs and lifts off) to
reveal the upper mounting screw holes.

4. Refer to the diagram on the following page for
connection of the AC wiring. All wires to be
inserted in the screw terminals should be
stripped 7/16-inch (11 mm), and screws should
be tightened to between 8 and 10 in.-lbs. (0.90
Newton meters to 1.13 Newton meters). The
maximum wire size is 12 AWG (3 mm

5. Connect each load wire to the corresponding
LOAD terminals on the unit, connect the power
line hot wire from the circuit breaker to the HOT
terminal on the unit, connect all neutral wires to
the NEUTRAL terminal on the unit, and connect
all ground wires to the
the unit.

).

• A 4-gang electrical box (not supplied), 3.5 inches
(89 mm) deep, minimum.

• Phillips torque screwdriver (not supplied)

• Four 7/8-inch (22 mm) pan head Phillips screws

(supplied)

If the planned configuration includes connection to shade
controllers, keypads, and/or a Crestron 2-Series control
system, the following items are also required. Refer to the
latest version of the Crestron CLS-C6 & CLS-C6M iLux
Lighting System Operations Guide (Doc. 6347) for
detailed configuration options.

• Cresnet network cable(s) (not supplied)

• Terminal block connector(s) (two supplied)

Check that any required Cresnet wiring has been installed
and verified. Then, use the following procedure to install
the iLux unit (CLS-C6M is shown in the illustrations).

2 • iLux™ Lighting Systems: CLS-C6 & CLS-C6M Installation Guide – DOC. 6394C

6. If Cresnet cabling is part of the installation, attach
the supplied terminal block connector(s) to the
Cresnet cable(s) and plug into the appropriate
port(s) on the unit. Make certain that there is a
minimum 1/4-inch (63 mm) separation between
the Class 2 Cresnet wiring and the Class 1 AC
wiring.

7. Carefully tuck all wires into the wallbox and
fasten the unit to the wallbox using the four
7/8-inch (22 mm) Phillips screws supplied.

8. Reattach the control panel overlay to the front
panel by inserting the four tabs into the slots
provided, and install the hinged front cover
assembly by lining it up at the top and pressing
the bottom edge until it snaps into position.
