Six Channel Dimming
The CLS-C6 features six channels of dimming for incandescent, magnetic lowvoltage, neon/cold cathode, and two-wire dimmable fluorescent loads. Each channel
can also support switching of many non-dimmable lighting loads. Each channel will
handle up to 800 watts individually, with a total rating for the complete unit of 1920
watts at 120 VAC for CLS-C6/C6M (2300 watts at 230 VAC for CLSI-C6/C6M).
Shade Control
Using Crestron’s networked shade and drape controllers (sold separately), the
CLS-C6 enables versatile control of a roomful of motorized window treatments,
screens, and lifts in up to six shade groups. Each controller is connected to the
CLS-C6 via the four-wire Cresnet bus.
Energy Management
Using Crestron Green Light® technology the iLux line of integrated lighting systems
allow for the management of demand response for load shedding and room
occupancy sensing for maximum energy efficiency and cost savings.
Versatile Operation
The deceptively clean front panel actually affords an extensive amount of control
and customization to suit each unique room application. Large ON and OFF buttons
provide instant access to the “On” and “All Off” scenes, while the six main buttons
can be set up to recall additional scene presets, adjust shades, or perform a host of
other functions. The buttons' “rocker” action enables intuitive control for adjusting
lighting levels and shade positions. An additional “up/down” button is configurable
for a variety of functions, including use as a master lighting or shade control, or as a
“shift” button to expand the capabilities of the six main buttons.
With each new scene selection, window shades reposition and lights fade elegantly
to their new settings. The selected scene is indicated by a white LED beside each
button, and the customizable label strip allows each button to be clearly labeled
using Crestron Engraver software or standard 3/8” tape labels. Dimming levels and
shade positions are displayed graphically on six green LED bar graphs accessible
behind the flip-up front cover. Additional controls and a numeric display hidden
beneath the cover enable setup without requiring a PC. Enhanced customization is
provided via the PC programming port using iLux Designer software.
Built-in Motion Detector (CLS/CLSI-C6M)
The CLS/CLSI-C6M model provides the addition of a built-in infrared motion
detector, enabling automated control based on room occupancy. Lights can be
programmed to turn on and shades open automatically when someone enters the
room, or turn off and close when the room is left empty. Remote motion detectors
are also available to expand the coverage of the CLS/CLSI-C6M, or add occupancy
sensing capability to the CLS-C6 model.
IR Remote Control
The CLS-C6 units are equipped with an onboard IR receiver to allow for wireless
remote control using Crestron’s optional infrared remote control (sold separately).

Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6/C6M iLux® Integrated Lighting System
Multipoint Keypad Control
Up to 16 Crestron keypads* may be connected to a single CLS-C6, providing
versatile multipoint control for rooms with multiple entrances or work areas.
Individual keypad buttons can be programmed to work through the master unit or
can target specific slave units for maximum control and room management.
Touchpanel Support
The CLS-C6 can support up to two touchpanels without the need of a centralized
processor. Using the iLux Designer software, add touchpanels to a standalone system
with hard and soft button programming including two way zone status feedback.
Multi-Unit Expansion
A single CLS-C6 master will support up to eight additional units, enabling systems
of up to 54 lighting zones and 54 shade groups. Scene recall, master dimming, and
occupancy status are shared between the units. Each individual unit can still support
a complete assortment of local devices including keypads, shade controllers,
touchpanels, and sensors.
Room Combining Support
When your application includes divisible rooms, the CLS-C6 has advanced
room-combining features capable of supporting even the most complex layouts.
When additional CLS-C6 slave units are linked to a master CLS-C6, advanced room
combining of up to nine rooms become possible. The iLux Lighting System supports
up to 36 room partitions, allowing for all possible room combinations. Room
combining status (combined or separate) can be controlled via external partition
sensors, via keypad or touchpanel buttons, or via an external command from a
Crestron control processor.
Building Management System Integration
Crestron CLS-C6 includes BMS integration capabilities for straightforward inclusion
of building management systems as a component of managing energy demands.
Control System Integration
The CLS-C6 actually features two separate Cresnet control networks, one for local
devices and one for connection to a 2-Series control system.
Connecting the CLS-C6 to a control system allows its functions to be controlled
from touchpanels, RF wireless remotes, and even computers, supporting extensive
flexibility for remote control and integration with other devices and systems.
Additional functions such as on-the-fly room combining and activating operations
based on a real-time clock are also made possible by connecting the CLS-C6 to a
control system.
Connecting to an Ethernet-networked control system provides a gateway to larger
applications such as integration with facility-wide lighting, HVAC, security, and
remote monitoring via Crestron RoomView
party SNMP software.

DESCRIPTION
The IR detector responds to commands from
the optional Crestron remote control. The
remote control can be used to recall Scenes 1 –
4, the On and Off scenes, and perform master
raise and lower of the lighting loads.
The built-in motion detector can be used to
activate a particular scene when there is activity
in the room, and/or to activate a particular scene
(typically Off) when there is no activity for a
specified period. A limited number of actions are
available when programmed locally; more are
available using the iLux Designer software
program.
Use this 3.5mm TRS mini-phone jack, located
on the front panel, as an RS-232 programming
port, to communicate with the iLux Designer and
Crestron Toolbox™ to configure the unit, and to
upgrade the unit’s firmware.
In Standard Mode, the display is normally blank,
except when showing scene fade time. The Min
and Sec LEDs illuminate when the display is
indicating time in minutes or in seconds,
respectively. In Setup mode, the display uses a
two-character mnemonic to indicate which
specific aspect of the CLS-C6 you are changing.
As these are being adjusted, the display may
indicate values. (Refer to “Setup Mode” on page
14 for details.)
Use this switch to select the Lights mode. The
LED illuminates when the mode is selected.
Refer to “Lights Mode” on page 37 for details.
Use this switch to select the Shades mode. The
LED illuminates when the mode is selected.
Refer to “Shades Mode” on page37 for details.
Use these push buttons to navigate and execute
setup functions. The Save and Cancel LEDs
indicate when these functions are active. Refer
to “Setup Mode” on page 14 for details.
If the unit stops functioning and does not
respond to button pushes, use a thin object
such as a paperclip to activate this switch. The
unit reboots (all lighting loads go off, the twodigit display shows “– –,” and all lighting loads
go to their previous state).
These LEDs are covered by the label strip, but
are easily visible through the strip when they are
illuminated. When the Shift mode is enabled via
programming, there can be two functions
defined for each of the six function buttons. The
unit will always be in “upper” or “lower” shift
mode as indicated by the state of the LEDs.

Setup
Network Wiring
When wiring the network, consider the following:
• Use Crestron Certified Wire.
• Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.
• Provide sufficient power to the system.
CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage
to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate
how much power is needed for the system
(http://www.crestron.com/calculators
• For larger networks, Use a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to maintain
signal quality.
For more details, refer to “Check Network Wiring” on page 39.
).
Identity Code
The NET ID of the CLS-C6 has been factory set to 1F. The NET IDs of multiple
CLS-C6 devices in the same system must be unique. NET IDs are changed from a
personal computer (PC) via the Crestron Toolbox™ or iLux Designer software
programs. (Refer to “Establishing Communication” on page 30.)
When setting the NET ID, consider the following:
• The NET ID of each unit must match an ID code specified in the SIMPL
Windows or D3 Pro
• Each network device on the same gateway must have a unique NET ID.
For more details, refer to the Crestron Toolbox or iLux Designer help files.

Installation
Detailed installation procedures are provided in the latest version of the Crestron
iLux Lighting Systems Installation Guide (Doc. 6394 for CLS-C6/C6M;
Doc. 6413 for CLSI-C6/C6M).
The figure on the following page illustrates five installation configurations and
includes brief descriptions of the rationale behind each one.
NOTE: The power usage requirements on the local devices network is different
from that described above. The CLS-C6 provides 24 VDC power for up to four
keypads and/or shade controllers on the local devices network. An additional power
supply is required to support more than four devices. Also, each C2N-SDC-DC
shade controller requires its own additional power supply.

Hardware Hookup
Refer to the following diagram for connection of the AC wiring. 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
(ground) terminal on the unit. For details, refer to the iLux Lighting System
Installation Guide (Doc. 6394) for CLS-C6/C6M units, and Doc. 6413, for
CLSI-C6/C6M units).
Refer to the configuration diagram on the previous page for typical connections to
the LOCAL DEVICES connector.
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 following diagram
illustrates a scenario where an external power supply is required to add keypads and
shade controllers to a network that already contains four shade controllers. The
actual quantity of external power supplies required depends on your system
configuration.

Configuring the CLS-C6
The overall configuration of the CLS-C6 can be accomplished in two ways: using the
front panel controls, or using the supplied iLux
which can be downloaded from the Crestron Web site.
Configuring via the front panel controls is not as extensive as what can be done using
the iLux Designer, but permits basic functional setup without having to use a PC.
In addition, some aspects of the CLS-C6’s operation can be modified only
Crestron Toolbox console commands. (Refer to “Console Command Settings” on
page 24 for details. Refer also to “Appendix B: Console Commands” on page 49 for
details on all applicable console commands.)
NOTE: Toolbox does not distinguish between the CLS-C6 and CLSI-C6 devices.

Configuring With Front Panel Controls
You can make temporary changes to accommodate a particular circumstance, or
change scene presets and replace the originals, as described below. To make more
extensive changes in the configuration of the CLS-C6 without using the iLux
Designer software, use the "Setup Mode", as described beginning on page 14.
Temporary Changes/Adjustments
Temporary changes/adjustments to the lighting levels or shade presets can be
accomplished as discussed in “Lights Mode” on page 37 and “Shades Mode” on
page 37.
Changing Scene Presets
The CLS-C6 scene settings can be modified via the front panel controls without
having to use a PC. Changes to the lighting load levels and shade presets for one or
more scenes can be accomplished as follows:
NOTE: The iLux Designer or SIMPL™ Windows programs can lock a scene to
prevent it from being changed using the front panel controls. If the selected scene is
“locked” in the configuration, when you try to make any adjustment, “Er” will
display for three seconds, and the scene will remain in its existing state.
1. In Standard mode, press the function button of the scene you wish to
modify and hold it for five seconds. (Make sure you press the center of the
button so both sides make contact.)
2. The two-digit display will first count down as the lighting loads fade to their
preset levels for that scene; it will then begin flashing between Sc. and the
scene number; the Lights LED will be lit, and the Save and Cancel LEDs
will flash.
3. Use the six function buttons to adjust the levels of the lighting loads for that
scene. Press the left side of the buttons to lower the lighting loads; press the
right side of the buttons to raise the lighting loads.
4. If you would like a certain lighting load to be unaffected by that scene

for three seconds. The top two and the bottom two LEDs of the associated
bar graph will be lit (and the display will show - -) to indicate that the level
of the lighting load will not change when that scene is recalled.
5. To change the shade presets for that scene press the Shades button; the
Shades LED will be lit.
6. Use the six function buttons to adjust the levels of the shade groups for that
scene. Press the right side to raise the shades; press the left side to lower
them. While the shades are moving, press any part of the button to stop.
Note that for shades that are not “presettable,” only full open or full closed
positions can be recalled as part of a scene.
7. If you would like a certain shade group to be unaffected by that scene recall,
press and hold the center of the button (so both side make contact) for three
seconds. The top two and the bottom two LEDs of the associated bar graph
will be lit (and the display will show - - ) to indicate that the level of that
shade group will not change when that scene is recalled.
8. To adjust the fade time, press the ^ and v buttons. When going up, the value
will go from 0 seconds to 59 seconds, and then 1 minute to 99 minutes.
When going down, the value will go from 99 minutes to 1 minute, and then
59 seconds to 0 seconds. The Min and Sec LEDs light as appropriate.
Adjustment to fade time can be made when either Lights mode or Shades
mode is active.
9. When all the lighting loads are at the desired level and shades are at the
desired position, press Save to save these settings as the new preset for that
scene. If you make a mistake while changing a setting, press Cancel to
discard changes and return to Standard mode before pressing Save.
10. Repeat the above procedures for all scenes that require changes.
Setup Mode
The Setup mode is used to change internal settings on the CLS-C6, including the
scene presets as discussed in the previous paragraph.
• To enter Setup mode
seconds. The Cancel button LED will blink, and the first setup option (Sc) will
be displayed, to indicate that the unit is now in Setup mode.
Note that while scrolling through the list of setup options, before an option is
“locked”, the Save button is not functional and its LED is off. However, the
Cancel button LED will blink - since the button can be pressed to return the unit
to Standard mode.
• If the unit is connected to a Cresnet control system and you are in the process of
adjusting scene settings, you cannot enter Setup mode. If you try, the two-digit
display will indicate “Er” (error).
• When the unit is in Setup mode, the two-digit display uses a two-character
mnemonic to indicate which specific aspect of the CLS-C6 you are changing. As
these are being adjusted, the display may indicate values. The following is a list
of the different Setup modes, and the corresponding mnemonic codes:

• Press the ^ or v buttons to scroll through this list of available setup options.
Once the desired setup option appears in the display, use the various buttons on
the CLS-C6 to make adjustments, as described on the following pages.
• Once any adjustment is made, Setup mode is now “locked” into that particular
option (this is indicated by lighting the period at the end of the mnemonic).
Once locked in an option, the ^ and v buttons will no longer scroll through the
options; you must exit setup before you can choose another option.
When the adjustments are complete, press Save to store the changes permanently,
and exit Setup mode, or press Cancel to exit Setup mode without saving the changes.
The unit reverts to Standard mode.
Scene Programming (Sc)
This setup option allows the user to adjust the scene parameters. This is another way
to accomplish scene changes as discussed in “Changing Scene Presets” on page 13.
This method also allows you to change the settings for scenes greater than scene 6.
Note that scenes can be turned off in addition to being recalled. When a scene is
turned off, only the lighting loads are turned off. If the scene contains any shades,
they are not affected. The fade time for turning the scene lights off is the same as for
recalling the scene. Therefore, no additional parameters need to be set to define the
off behavior.
Select the scene to be changed using the Up/Down button. As you cycle through the
list of scenes, the lights and shades will not change, and the bar graphs will be off.
Set the lighting loads and shade positions for the scenes as discussed in “Changing
Scene Presets” on page 13. As you set the scenes, note the following:
• When a lighting load reaches the HE (high end) limit, the lights will stop. The
two-digit display will continue to rise. If lights reach the LE (low end) limit, the
two-digit display will continue to go down, but lights will stay at the LE limit
until they reach Off—at which point they will turn off. If you save the scene
setting while the display is at a level below the LE limit, or above the HE limit,
the displayed value will be saved, but the light level will be limited to the
programmed limits.

• If a lighting load is defined as an “unused” load type, the bar graph for that
lighting load will have all LEDs off. If you try to adjust that lighting load, the
two-digit display will show “Er”.
• To mark a lighting load as "not affected" (i.e., the lighting load’s current state
will not be changed by recalling the scene), press and hold the center of the
corresponding button for three seconds. Adjustments made to such lighting
loads will cancel the “not affected” condition, and start adjusting from the
current light level.
• While adjustments are being made to the lights or shades, the two-digit display
will show the level, just like in Manual mode. The level for loads that are not
affected will be shown as “—.” In Manual mode, the display goes blank after
three seconds; in this mode, it returns to the “Sc. ##” display.
• For SDC (or SDC-DC) shades, when you press the left or right side of the
button, the two-digit display will immediately show full open or full closed as
soon as the shade starts moving, and the preset will be set to this full open or
closed position even if the shade is stopped before reaching the full open or full
close position.
• The iLux Designer or SIMPL programs can lock a scene to prevent it from being
changed using the front panel controls. If the selected scene is “locked” in the
configuration, when you try to make any adjustment, “Er” will display for three
seconds, and the scene will remain in its existing state.
• To adjust the fade time, while “Sc. ##” is displayed, press the ^ and v buttons to
adjust the time. The first time a button is pressed, current fade time will be
shown, but not changed. Subsequent presses will change the displayed value.
Adjustment to fade time can be made when either Lights mode or Shades mode
is active. When going up, the value will go from 0 seconds to 59 seconds, and
then one minute to 99 minutes. When going down, the value will go from 99
minutes to one minute, and then 59 seconds to 0 seconds.
• To save/cancel levels, press the Save button to save the new values and return to
Standard mode. Press the Cancel button to return to Standard mode without
saving – old scene parameters will be remembered.
Setup Lighting Load Types (Ld)
To set the load types for each lighting load, first enter Setup mode and scroll to the
“Ld” option. The bar graphs immediately indicate the currently selected load type for
each lighting load. Use the function buttons to change the load type, each load type
indicated by a pattern of bar graph segments and a number on the two-digit display,
as shown in the following table. Press the right and left side of the buttons to cycle
through the available load types.
Load Type Number LEDs Default LowEnd
/ HighEnd
Unused 0 all off 0 / 100
Incandescent – default 1 top 1 on 0 / 100
MLV 2 top 2 on 0 / 100
NCC 3 top 3 on 0 / 100
Fluorescent (2-wire) 4 top 4 on 10 / 100
Non-dim (On at start/Off at start)¹ 5 top 5 on 0 / 100
Non-dim (On at end/Off at start)² 6 top 6 on 0 / 100

1. Whether going on or off, this load type will switch at the start of the fade.
2. If going off, this load type will switch at the start of the fade; if going on, it will switch at the end.
• When changing the load type using the rocker buttons, the two-digit display will
change to reflect the current load type. It will show “L#.” where # is the number
from the table above. Whenever the two-digit display is showing a load type, the
corresponding front panel LED is lit.
• During adjustment of this value, the lights will not change. If setup is exited
without pressing the Save button, the original values will be retained. When the
Save button is pressed, Setup mode will be exited, the new values will be saved,
and the lights will be updated to reflect the new curve type.
If the load type was changed, the LE and HE limits are automatically changed to the
default value for the new load type, listed in the above table.
Setup Low-End Levels (LE)
Some lights can flicker at very low levels. To avoid this, you can specify the low-end
limit accordingly. Whenever you try to adjust lights to a level below this value, they
will stay at the low-end limit until they are turned off. To set the low-end levels for
the six lighting loads:
• First enter Setup mode and scroll to the “LE” option (using the ^ and v buttons).
At this point the lights will not change, but the bar graphs should immediately
indicate the low-end levels for each lighting load. (In most cases this will be 0%,
which is indicated by all bar graph segments being off.) To set the low-end
level, use the rocker button corresponding to that lighting load to adjust the level
up or down. When the first adjustment is made, the light being adjusted will
jump to the current low-end level, and start adjusting from there.
• The low-end level cannot be adjusted above 33%.
• Note that for non-dim and “unused” lighting loads, the low-end level cannot be
adjusted (always at 0%). If you try to adjust this, the light and bar graph will not
change, and the two-digit display will show “Er.” to indicate an error.
If setup is exited without pressing the Save button, the original values will be
retained. For lighting loads where adjustment has been made, lights will jump to the
original low-end level. Light levels will not change on lighting loads where no
adjustment was made. When the Save button is pressed, Setup mode will be exited,
the new values will be saved, and the lights will not change.
Setup High-End Levels (HE)
This option allows you to set the “full on” level of the lighting loads below their
maximum brightness. To set the high-end levels for the six lighting loads:
• Enter Setup mode and scroll to the “HE” option (using the ^ and v buttons). At
this point the lights will not change, but the bar graphs immediately indicate the
high-end levels for each lighting load. (In most cases this will be 100%, which is
indicated by all bar graph segments being on.)
• To set the high-end level, use the rocker button corresponding to that lighting
load to adjust it up or down. When the first adjustment is made, the light being
adjusted will jump to the current high-end level, and start adjusting from there.
As adjustments are made, the current light level for the lighting load being
adjusted should appear in the bar graph and the two-digit display.
• The high-end level cannot be adjusted below 67%.
Operations Guide - DOC. 6347C iLux® Integrated Lighting System: CLS/CLSI-C6/C6M • 17
ILux® Integrated Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6/C6M
• Note that for non-dim and “unused” lighting loads, the high-end level cannot be
adjusted (always at 100%). If you try to adjust this, the light and bar graph will
not change, and the two-digit display will show “Er” to indicate an error.
If setup is exited without pressing the Save button, the original values will be
retained. For lighting loads where adjustment has been made, lights will jump to the
original high-end level. Light levels will not change on lighting loads where no
adjustment was made. When the Save button is pressed, Setup mode will be exited,
the new values will be saved, and the lights will not change.
Setup Button Functions (bF)
This Setup mode is used to define the behavior of the buttons on the CLS-C6 unit
itself, and on remote keypads if you want behavior other than the default. (Remote
keypads must be ID’d, using auto-discovery, prior to this, which will set them to
their default functions.) To enter this mode:
• First enter Setup mode and scroll to the “bF” option (using the ^ and v buttons).
Then use the Up/Down button to scroll through the available button functions
and values. This will scroll through all values for each function before
proceeding to the next function.
• If you press and hold the button, it will auto repeat. During auto-repeating, when
it reaches the minimum or maximum value for that function, it will stop. The
next button push will then increment/decrement to the next function.
Available functions and values are as shown in the following table. (Other
functions require a PC with iLux Designer software to configure them.)
BUTTON FUNCTION CODE POSSIBLE VALUES
Recall Scene F1 oF,on,1-15
Toggle Scene F2 on,1-15
Control Shade (open/stop/close/stop) F3 AL, 1-6
Master Raise/Lower (last scene) F4 uP, dn, ud (rockers only)
1. To assign a function to a certain button or buttons, first scroll to the desired
function and value. Then, press each appropriate function button or remote
button to assign the displayed function and value to that button.
When the button is released, the LED for that button should flash once to
indicate that programming took place.
2. Next, use the Up/Down button to scroll to the next function and value to be
assigned, and assign the desired buttons. Repeat this procedure for each
function and value to be assigned.
3. After assigning all button functions, press Save, and the button function
information will be saved. If you press Cancel, or exit by some other
mechanism (e.g., timeout), the state will return to what it was before you
entered Setup mode.
• Note that the ON and OFF buttons on the CLS-C6 cannot be programmed. The
operation of the Up/Down button is programmed using the “ud” setup function.
• If you try to program an illegal button (e.g., the ON button, or program a remote
keypad button as master raise/lower-Up/Down), LED will flash on three times to
indicate that setting did not take place, and the two-digit display will show “Er.”
