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.
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).
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.

Adding External Power Supplies
Additional power supplies are required to support more
than four keypads or shade controllers on the LOCAL DEVICES network. Also, each C2N-SDC-DC shade
controller requires its own additional power supply. The
diagram to the right illustrates a scenario where an
external power supply is required to add a shade
controller and other devices to a network that already
contains four shade controllers. The actual quantity of
external power supplies required depends on your system
configuration. The illustrations on the following page
show a variety of installation configurations.
Adding External Power Supply
Check Network Wiring
In order to ensure optimum performance over the full
range of your installation topology, use Crestron Certified
Wire only. Failure to do so may incur additional charges
if support is required to identify performance deficiencies
because of using improper wire.
CAUTION: Use only Crestron power supplies for
Crestron equipment. Failure to do so could cause
equipment damage or void the Crestron warranty.
CAUTION: Provide sufficient power to the system.
Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or
damage to the equipment. Refer to the Supported Devices
table on page 5. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator
to help calculate how much power is needed for the
system (www.crestron.com/calculators
The following table lists devices supported by the iLux
units and their power requirements.

Power up and Testing
The following illustration shows the front panel of the
unit and the controls used during installation.
Front Panel Controls and Indicators
Verify the basic installation and wiring connections as
follows:
1. Press the Lights button to enable manual light
control, and press the right side and the left side
of each of the function buttons to increase and
decrease the lighting level of those loads. Verify
that the intended loads and corresponding LED
bargraphs respond appropriately.
2. Press the OFF button to turn off all loads. The
loads will ramp down to off while the two-digit
display counts down to off (blank). Two seconds
after all lights have turned off, the unit’s master
air-gap relay opens making it safe to service the
lighting installations.
The table after this paragraph provides corrective action
for possible trouble situations. If further assistance is
required, please contact a Crestron customer service
representative.
