iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
Six Group 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.
Versatile Front Panel Controls
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. Dimming levels and shade positions are displayed
graphically on six green LED bargraphs 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 units.
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).
Multipoint Keypad Control
Up to 16 Crestron keypads (sold separately) may be connected to a single CLS-C6,
providing versatile multipoint control for rooms with several entrances or work
areas.
Multi-Unit Expansion
A single CLS-C6 master will support up to eight additional CLS-C6s, enabling
systems of up to 54 lighting channels and 54 shade gro up s. Scene recal l , ma ster
dimming, and occupancy status are shared between all the CLS-C6 units. Each
individual unit can still support a complete assortment of local devices including
keypads, shade controllers, and sensors.

Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
Setup
As stated earlier, the CLS-C6 features two separate Cresnet control networks: one for
local devices and one for connection to a 2-Series control system. When connected
to a control system, the CLS-C6 acts as a standard Cresnet slave device. When local
devices are connected to it, the CLS-C6 acts as the Cresnet Master (Net ID 02). In
some configurations, the unit serves a dual role. (Refer to the configuration examples
included in “Identity Code” below for more details.)
The following wiring information applies to a 2-Series control system network. The
CONTROL SYSTEM port of the CLS-C6 may be connected to this network.
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 unpredictabl e resul t s 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 networ ks, Use a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to maintain
signal quality.
For more details, refer to “Check Network Wiring” on page 37.
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. When setting the Net ID, consider the following:
• The Net ID of each unit must match an ID code specified in the SIMPL
Windows program.
• Each network device 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 b ehi n d each on e.
NOTE: The power usage requirements on the local devices network is different
from that described above. The CLS-C6 provides 24VDC 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.
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
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 CLSIC6/C6M units.
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 website.
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 23 for details. Refer also to “Appendix B: Console Commands” on page 41 for
details on all applicable console commands.)

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 13.
Temporary Changes/Adjustments
Temporary changes/adjustments to the lighting levels or shade presets can be
accomplished as discussed in “Lights Mode” on page 34 and “Shades Mode” on
page 35.
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 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.
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
4. If you would like a certain lighting load to be unaffected by that scene
recall, press and hold the center of the button (so both sides make contact)
for three seconds. The top two and the bottom two LEDs of the associated
bargraph 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 bargraph
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 go i ng u p, t he 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 but t o ns o n
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 12.
This method also allows you to change the settings for scenes greater than scene 6.
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 bargraphs will be off.
Set the lighting loads and shade positions for the scenes as discussed in “Cha nging
Scene Presets” on page 12. 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 bargraph for that
lighting load will have all LEDs off. If you try to adjust that lighting lo ad, the
two-digit display will show “Er”.
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
• 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 bargraphs 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 bargraph 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.
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
• 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 bargraphs should immediately
indicate the low-end levels for each lighting load. (In most cases this will be 0%,
which is indicated by all bargraph 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 bargraph 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 bargraphs immediately indicate the
high-end levels for each lighting load. (In most cases this will be 100%, which is
indicated by all bargraph 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 bargraph and the two-digit display.
• The high-end level cannot be adjusted below 67%.
• 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 bargraph will
not change, and the two-digit display will show “Er” to indicate an error.
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
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 wh ere 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.

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.
A 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 canno t 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.”
• Note that other button functions, including “shifted” functions, can be defined
using the iLux Designer configuration program.
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
Setup Up/Down Button Function (ud)
To define operation of the Up/Down button, enter Setup mode and scroll to the “ud”
option (using the ^ and v buttons).
• Use the Up/Down button to select the desired mode. The display will flip
between “ud.” and “#”, where # is the mode, as defined in the following table.
FUNCTION MODE
Lights (Last Scene) Master Up/Down L
Shades Master Up/Down S
• The first function to be displayed will be the current func tion. Since there are
other functions that can be programmed via the iLux Designer, if the current
function is not one of these, the display should show “ud.—”. Pressing the
Up/Down button will then go to mode L.
• Press Save to save the new setting or Cancel to retain the original setting.
Setup Occupancy Sensing (oc)
To define operation of the Occupancy Sensing feature, enter Setup mode and scroll
to the “oc” option (using the ^ and v buttons).
• Use the Up/Down button to select the desired mode. The display will alternate
between “oc.” and the mode number, as defined in the following table.
MODE CODE
Do nothing on either exit or entry 0
Recall specified scene on exit, do nothing on entry 1
Recall specified scene on entry, do nothing on exit 2
Recall specified scenes on entry and exit 3
• The first mode to be displayed will be the current mode.
• When programming from the front panel, exit time cannot be adjusted or
displayed. If it has not been changed with iLux Designer, or SIMPL, it will be
the default of 30 minutes. Scenes to be recalled also cannot be changed from the
front panel. If they have not been changed with iLux Designer, the OFF scene
will be recalled on exit (if enabled), and ON scene will be recalled on entry (if
enabled).
• Even if these items are changed with iLux designer, they can still be enabled and
disabled from the front panel without modifying the specified scenes or exit
time.
• If Cancel is pressed, or Setup mode times out, the previous occupancy setting
will be restored. To have the new setting take effect, you must press Save.
• Note that in mode 0, even though nothing happens locally when occupancy state
changes, the occupancy status is still reported to Cresnet.
This mode can also be used to test the range of the occupancy sensor. While
locked in the “oc.” mode, each time motion is sensed, the middle LED on all six
bargraphs will blink.
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
Run Auto-Discovery (Ad)
This Setup mode is used to find which remote devices are on the network, assign
Cresnet ID’s to new devices, and assign default functions to new panels and devices.
• To enter this mode, first enter Setup mode and scroll to the “Ad” option (using
the ^ and v buttons). Then press the Up/Down butt on (either top, bottom, or
both), and hold for five seconds. The auto-discovery process will then start. (If
you release the button before five seconds are up, nothing will happen, but
“Ad.” mode will be locked in.) Once “Ad.” mode is locked in, the Cancel button
will flash.
• During Auto discovery, the “Ad.” display will flash. When Auto Discovery is
done, the two-digit display will flash between “Ad.” and “##” where ## is the
number of devices discovered on the network. The Save button will also start
flashing. You can then press Save or Cancel.
• The CLS-C6 keeps a list of all devices on its local network. If the auto-
discovery finds devices that match the list, it will not change anything about
those.
• In addition to initially configuring the system, auto-discovery can be used to add
or replace keypads or shade controllers. If you are adding a device, all
previously assigned devices will not be changed. The new device will be added
and assigned default functionality, if desired.
• To replace a device (because of defect or color choice), remove the device and
replace with another device of the same type. When you execute auto-discovery,
the new device will take on the functionality of the original device. Use the “bF”
option to change functionality, if desired.
• All shade controllers of a given type will be assigned to a single shade group.
Use the “AS” option to change them.
CAUTION: If there are SSC shade controllers on the network that do not have a
functional shade connected to channel 1, shade control may not operate properly.
Therefore, any SSC shade controllers without any shades attached should be
removed from the network before running Auto-discover. Also, if any SSC shade
controllers have only one shade attached, it must be attached to channel 1.
• There are a number of possible error conditions that can occur du ring th e
discovery process (before Save is pressed). They are:
1. Corrupt data on network.
2. Two or more devices with same TSID number.
3. Invalid device type found on network. (CLS-C6 modules only support a
limited number of device types. Refer to “ Appendix A: Supported
Devices” for details.
4. Too many keypads found on network. (A maximum of 16 are supported.)
5. Too many shade controllers found on network. (A maximum of 16 are
supported.)
6. (For future use.)
7. Too many slave CLSI units found on network. (A maximum of eight are
supported.)
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
• If any of these errors occur, when the discovery process is done, the two-digit
display will flash between “Ad.” “##”, and “E#”, where “##” is the total number
of devices discovered on the network (including invalid devices), and “E#” is
“E1” through “E7”, per the seven error types listed above. If more than one error
is present, all error codes will be displayed in sequence.
• In such case, the Save LED will not light (the Cancel LED will still be
flashing). The user must press Cancel, correct the error, and try again.
• In the case where there were no errors during the Auto-discover process, and the
user presses Save, the CLSI will update the Network ID’s for any devices which
require it.
NOTE: The case of duplicate TSIDs cannot always be accurately detected. If you
get a Corrupt Data error, or the program reports fewer devices than actually exist on
the network, this may also be a result of duplicate TSIDs. In any event,
troubleshooting for these errors is essentially the same.
Assign Shade Groups (AS)
This Setup mode is used to define which channels on each shade controller are
assigned to which shade group.
• To enter this mode, first enter Setup mode and scroll to the “AS” option (using
the ^ and v buttons). Then use the Up/Down button to scroll through the shade
groups. The display will flash between “AS.” and “ #”, where # is the shade
group to be assigned. The shade group number range is 1 – 6 plus 0 (zero). Enter
a 0 to unassign a channel. (You can also press any of the six function front panel
buttons to jump to a specific shade group.) The front panel LED corresponding
to the selected shade group will be lit.
• While in AS mode, the bargraphs will indicate the status of each of the six shade
groups: if no controllers are assigned, all LEDs will be off; if SDC controller(s)
are assigned, the bottom two LEDs will be lit; if SDC-DC controller(s) are
assigned, the bottom three LEDs will be lit; if SSC controller(s) are assigned,
the top two LEDs will be lit.
• When a given “AS / #” is displayed, you can press the channel 1 or channel 2 up
or down button on a shade controller to assign that chann e l of the shade
controller to the current group. When the button is pressed, the Setup LED on
that device will flash for one second to confirm that it has been assigned. The
bargraph for that group will also flash off for one second.
• Go to a shade group and assign all channels. Then go to the next shade group
and assign those channels. Repeat for all shade groups. Note that a given shade
group can only have one type of shade controller (SDC, SDC-DC, or SSC). If a
shade controller of a given type is assigned to a group that already contains
shade controllers of the other type, the other controllers will be removed from
that group. Also, a given channel on a shade controller can only belong to a
single group. So if a shade controller that belongs to one group is assigned to a
new group, it will be removed from the first group. Therefore, if you
accidentally assign a shade controller to the wrong group, simply go to the
correct group and reassign it.
Once all shade controllers are assigned, press Save to save the assignments and
return to Standard mode, or press Cancel to discard the assignments.
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
Set Cresnet ID Of This Unit (id)
If this unit is to be connected to a Cresnet control system network, you may have to
change its Cresnet ID. (When connected to another CLS-C6 unit’s local network,
you do not want to set the ID – running Auto Discovery on the master device will do
this automatically, as will the Set ID process of the iLux Designer.)
• To do this, enter Setup mode and scroll to the “id” option, using the ^ and v
buttons.
• The display will alternate between “id” and the current Cresnet ID. Use the
Up/Down button to adjust the ID up or down (03-FE).
Press the Save button to save the new value and return to Standard mode. Press the
Cancel button to return to Standard mode without saving – the current Cresnet ID
will be retained.
Restore Factory Defaults (Fd)
This setup mode is used to restore all settings to their factory defaults.
• To enter this mode, first enter Setup mode and then scroll to the “Fd” option
(using the ^ and v buttons). Then press the Up/Down button (either top, bottom,
or both), and hold for five seconds.
• This setup mode will then be locked in, and the Save LED will start flashing. (If
you release the button before five seconds are up, nothing will happen.) If you
then press Save, all configuration items will be set to their factory default
values. (If you press Cancel, the unit exits Setup mode without changes.) The
factory default configuration does not include any remote devices. If you want
to re-initialize remote devices, run Auto-discover after this function. Running
the factory default function also does not modify the Cresnet ID of the CLS-C6.
• The Save process may take a few seconds. During this time, the Save LED will
be lit steady, and the two-digit display will show “—”. When the process is
complete, the LEDs will go off.
Refer to “Appendix C: Factory Default Values” on page 45 for a list of the system
default values.
Configuring With iLux Designer
The Crestron iLux Designer application software supplied with the CLS-C6 units
configures the CLS-C6 as an independent, standalone device or as a network device
in a Crestron network control system (Cresnet system).
To configure the CLS-C6 using the iLux designer, use a direct serial connection as
described in “Programs and Firmware” on page 29. Note that connecting the serial
cable to the front panel of the CLS-C6 disconnects the control system network.
Configuring the CLS-C6 consists of setting the load schedule definition, the shade
group configuration, the scene definitions, the CLS-C6 panel configuration and
keypads configuration for each CLS-C6/C6M device. Note that only one CLS-C6
can be configured at a time. If there are multiple CLS-C6 units in a system, each one
must be individually configured.
The following are the minimum software versions required to use the iLux Designer
program.
ILux Designer version 1.02.05 or later
Crestron Toolbox version 1.01.11 or later
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
Crestron Engraver version 2.5.0 or later*
Crestron Database version 17.3.0 or later*
*Required only if you intend to use the Crestron Engraver to prepare custom labeling.
The following sections provide a brief description of the iLux Designer functions.
Refer to the iLux Designer online help for detailed explanations.
Load Schedule
The Load Schedule screen allows you to identify up to six lighting load s (circuits),
add lighting load types for each channel; specify load type fixture wattage and
quantity; specify the breaker size; specify the expected loss factor from magnetic
transformers (magnetic low voltage, and neon/cold-cathode types only); specify
upper and lower dimmer levels; and specify non-dimmer behavior.
The software issues warnings if your individual loads or total system wattage
exceeds specified limits: 800 watts per load – 1920 watts system maximum with a
20A breaker (1440 watts maximum with a 15A breaker, and 1000 watts maximum
with an Arc Fault breaker) for a 120 VAC installation; and 800 watts per load – 2200
watts system maximum for a 220 VAC installation, 2300 watts system maximum for
a 230 VAC installation, and 2400 watts system maximum for a 240 VAC
installation.
Shades
The Shades screen allows you to assign up to 16 shade controllers, define up to six
shade groups; enter appropriate values for jog time, maximum time and lockout time;
and select the shade controller channels to be assigned to each shade group.
With SDC and SDC-DC shade controllers, there is no way for the system to
recognize when the shade has reached the limits of travel and stopped. If the shade is
commanded to go to full open or full close, the system assumes it is moving until the
max time is reached. To set the max time effectively, measure the time it takes the
shade to travel from full close to full open and the time to travel from full open to
full close. Take the longer of these two times and set max time slightly more than
that. Actual experience may require that you set the time even longer.
Scenes
The Scenes screen allows you to define 15 regular scenes (lighting levels and shade
positions) in addition to the standard Off and On scenes. For all scenes, enter a fade
time in seconds or minutes, and the desired level for each lighting load. (Select – – if
a given load should not be affected by that scene.) Similarly, set the desired position
for any shade groups. To prevent changing those settings from the front panel, check
the Front Panel Lockout box.
CLS-C6
The CLS-C6 screen allows you to enter the manual ramp rate used by the CLS-C6
when manually raising/lowering light levels; define the functionality of the six
function buttons; define the behavior of the up/down button; specify if scene
raise/lower will be enabled; and define the entry action, the exit action, and motion
sensor timeout when the motion sensor function is enabled. You can also launch the
Crestron Engraver software program to create an engraver project for the CLS-C6
function buttons label.
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
NOTE: In systems with multiple CLS-C6 units that have the motion sensor function
enabled, it is important to set the motion sensor timeout of each unit to the same
value.
Keypads
The Keypads screen allows you to add up to 16 remote keypads; specify the remote
keypad type; define the action type, action, and target of each button on that keypad.
You can also launch the Crestron Engraver to create an engraver project for each
remote keypad.
NOTE: All keypads defined in the project must be installed and present on the
CLS-C6 network before setting Network IDs via the Finish screen.
Finish
The Finish screen allows you to send your iLux Designer project to the CLS-C6; set
the Net IDs for network devices; retrieve configuration information from the current
CLS-C6 module; and print reports that give the spreadsheet data from each of the
configuration screens.
Console Command Settings
Enabling/disabling IR reception, resetting the brightness level for the white and
green LEDs, and resetting the Glow mode level can be done only via console
commands.
By default, IR reception is enabled, the white and green LED brightness levels are
set to 70 and 63, respectively, and the white LED Glow mode level is set to 7. If the
settings are acceptable, continue with the configuring procedures. If these settings
are not satisfactory, open the Crestron Toolbox and click Tools | Text Console to
display the “Text Console” window, and follow the instructions given below.
IR Reception
1. At the iLux> prompt, type <IR> and press Return to display the current
setting. The system displays:
IR reception is enabled (or disabled)
iLux>
2. To disable IR reception, type <IR disable> and press Return. The system
displays:
IR reception is disabled
iLux>
3. To enable IR reception, type <IR enable> and press Return. The system
displays:
IR reception is enabled
iLux>
LED Brightness
These settings are for the white LEDs next to the function buttons and the ON
button, the shift LEDs, and the green bargraph LEDs.
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
1. At the prompt, type <WHITELEDLEVEL> or <GREENLEDLEVEL>

2. To change the brightness, type <WHITELEDLEVEL ##> or
<GREENLEDLEVEL ##> where ## is any number from 1 to 100.
3. When you press Return, the respective LEDs go to their new level.
Glow Mode Brightness
Glow mode is enabled when all lighting loads are turned off. In Glow mode, all the
white LEDs turn on at a very low level to make it possible to find the unit in a
darkened room.
1. Press the OFF button to select the Off scene (all lights off).
2. At the prompt, type <WHITELEDGLOWLEVEL> and press Return.
The system displays:
White led glow level = 7
iLux>
3. To change the brightness, type <WHITELEDGLOWLEVEL ##> where ##
is any number from 1 to 100.
(The glow level should be much lower than the normal LED brightness.)
4. When you press Return, the white LEDs go to their new level.
Replacing the Function Button Label
Each CLS-C6 is supplied with a pre-printed label sheet, in white, almond, or black to
match the unit’s color. The sheet contains two labels showing the standard Scene 1 –
Scene 6 button labels, three labels with clear spaces that permit you to write in single
line button names, and three labels with clear spaces that permit you to write in
two-line button names to accommodate shift functions. The label sheet is microperforated to make it easy to separate the desired label from the sheet. Carefully fold
the sheet along the perforations to snap them apart.
1. To replace the label on the unit, remove the front panel assembly by
carefully pulling out and up from the bottom edge.
2. Carefully pull the label cover from the top edge at each side of the unit.
Refer to the following illustration.
3. Remove the original label and replace it with the new label.
4. Replace the label cover, make sure the small tabs on the bottom edge are
inserted in the slots on the unit cover, and snap into position.
5. Install the front cover assembly on the unit by lining it up at the top and
pressing the bottom edge until it snaps into position.

Programming Software
IMPORTANT NOTE: The procedures in this section relate to creating a program
that can include the CLS-C6, not to programming the CLS-C6 itself. If it is to be part
of a 2-Series control system, you must first configure the unit using the iLux™
Designer program or configure it manually using the front panel controls. Then use
SIMPL Windows, D3 Pro™, or Crestron SystemBuilder™ to communicate with a
2-Series control system. Individual button functionality is not available except
through configuring the CLS-C6 itself.

Earliest Version Software Requirements for the PC
NOTE: Crestron recommends that you use the latest software to take advantage of
the most recently released features. The latest software is available from the Crestron
website.
Crestron has developed an assortment of Windows-based software tools to develop
a Cresnet system. The following are the minimum recommended software versions
for the PC:
Software
TASK REQUIRED SOFTWARE VERSION
Program control system to operate a
CLS-C6.
Upload program and firmware. Crestron Toolbox 1.01.11 or later.

Programming with Crestron SystemBuilder/D3 Pro
Crestron SystemBuilder is the easiest method of programming, but does not offer as
much flexibility as SIMPL Windows. Crestron D3 Pro similarly offers automatic
programming for lighting and HV AC projects.
For additional details, download SystemBuilder and D3 Pro from the Crestron
website and examine their extensive help files.
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
Programming with SIMPL Windows
NOTE: While SIMPL Windows can be used to program a system that includes a
CLS-C6, it is recommended to use SystemBuilder for configuring a Crestron control
system.
SIMPL Windows is Crestron’s premier software for programming Crestron control
systems. It is organized into two separate, but equally important “Managers”.
Configuration Manager
Configuration Manager is the view where programmers “build” a Crestron control
system by selecting hardware from the Device Library.
• To incorporate the CLS-C6 into the system, drag the CLS-C6/CLS-C6M
from the Lighting folder of the Device Library and drop it in the System Views.
Locating the CLS-C6 in the Device Library
• The system tree of the control system displays the device in the appropriate
slot with a default Net ID as shown in the following illustration.
C2Net Device, Slot 9
• Additional CLS-C6 devices are assigned different Net ID numbers as they
are added.
• If necessary, double click a device to open the “Device Settings” window
and change the Net ID, as shown in the following figure.
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
“CLS-C6 Device Settings” Window
• The ID code specified in the SIMPL Windows program must match the
Net ID of each unit.
Programming Manager
Programming Manager is the view where programmers "program" a Crestron control
system by assigning signals to symbols. The symbol can be viewed by double
clicking on the icon or dragging it into Detail View. A descr i pt i on f or each si gnal i n
the symbol is described in the SIMPL Windows help file (F1).
Example Program
An example program for the CLS-C6 is available from the Crestron website
(http://www.crestron.com/exampleprograms).
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
Uploading and Upgrading
Crestron recommends using the latest programming software and that each device
contains the latest firmware to take advantage of the most recently released features.
However, before attempting to upload or upgrade, it is necessary to establish
communication.
Establishing Communication
Use Crestron Toolbox for communicating with the CLS-C6; refer to the Crestron
Toolbox help file for details. There are two methods of communication
Direct Serial Communication
Indirect Serial
Communication
Direct Serial Communication
• The RS-232 mini phone jack port on the CLS-C6 connects to the serial port
on the PC via the supplied serial cable.
• Use the Address Book in Crestron Toolbox to create an entry using the
expected serial communication protocol (RS232, auto-detect baud rate, no
parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, XON/XOFF disabled, RTS/CTS disabled).
• Display the CLS-C6’s “System Inf o” window (click the
communications are confirmed when the device information is displayed.
Indirect Serial Communication
• The CLS-C6 (CONTROL SYSTEM port) connects to the control system
via Cresnet.
• Establish communications between the PC and the control system as
described in the latest version of the 2-Series Reference Guide (Doc. 6256).
icon);
Programs and Firmware
• Upload the SIMPL Windows file to the control system using SIMPL
Windows or Crestron Toolbox.
• For Indirect Serial Communication with the CLS-C6, display the network
device tree (Tools | Network Device Tree) to show all network devices
connected to the control system. Right-click on the CLS-C6 to display
actions that can be performed on the CLS-C6:
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
Operation
The iLux always operates in one of four modes. The Setup mode is used to redefine
many of the CLS-C6 settings. Details regarding the Setup mode are given in “Setup
Mode” on page 13.
The following sections provide detailed descripti o ns of the Standard, Lights, and
Shades modes. It is important to have a good understanding of these operating modes
before attempting to take advantage of the extensive features available through the
CLS-C6. (Refer also to “Appendix D: Button Functions” on page 46 for details on
button functions.)
Standard Mode
Standard mode is the default mode; buttons are typically used to recall scenes,
although they can be redefined to serve other functions.
• By default, the six function buttons acro s s the front panel are simple scene recall
buttons. The buttons can be reprogrammed in Setup mode, or via the iLux
Designer program, to perform different actions.
• The ON button function always recalls the “On” scene. The typical On scene is
all lights at 100%; however, other value can be set just like any other scene.
• The OFF button function always recalls the “Off” scene. The “Off” scene
always sets all lights to 0%; however, fade time and shade motor behavior are
programmable.
• Whenever all the lighting loads are off (irrespective of how they are turned off),
the “air-gap” relay will open (after a two-second delay), to allow servicing of the
lighting loads.
• The Up/Down pushbutton can be defined to be either “lights master” or “shades
master.”
− If defined to be lights master, it ramps the lighting loads included in the
most recently recalled scene up and down. Non-dim loads are not affected.
− If defined to be shades master, all shade groups are affected. Refer to
“Shades Mode” on page 35 for operating details.
− Using the iLux Designer program, this button may be assigned to activate
the Shift function rather than being a lights or shades master. Pressing the
button will toggle between “upper” and “lower” function sets.
− Using the iLux Designer software, it is also possible to assign this button as
“all lights” master, instead of “last scene” master.
• The six bargraphs indicate current intensity for each of the six lighting loads.
• The two-digit display is normally blank, except when a scene recall is in
progress. It then shows the time remaining for lights to reach their target values.
Button Types
In Standard mode, the six function buttons can be programmed in Setup mode to be
one of the following types. Using the iLux Designer software, other button functions
may be specified. (Refer to “Configuring With iLux Designer” on page 21 for
details.)
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
• Recall-scene (specify scene number OFF, ON, 1-15). Refer to “Recall-scene
buttons” below.
• Toggle-scene (specify scene number ON, 1-15). Refer to “Toggle-scene
buttons” on page 33.
• Lighting master raise/lower (last scene). Refer to “Master (Last Scene)
Raise/Lower buttons” on page 33.
• Lighting master raise (last scene). Refer to “Lighting Master (Last Scene) Raise
buttons” on page 33.
• Lighting master lower (last scene). Refer to “Lighting Master (Last Scene)
Lower buttons” on page 33.
• Shade control (open/stop/close/stop) (specify shade group: AL, 1-6). Refer to
“Shade Control (open/stop/close/stop) Buttons” on page 33.
Recall-scene buttons:
• Used to recall a scene, i.e., have the specified lighting loads and/or shade groups
go to their specified levels in the specified time. (Time only affects lighting
loads; shade time is function of the shade motor.)
− During scene recall, the scene LED flashes until all affected lig hting loads
reach their target levels. After this, the LED remains on steady.
− Pressing a scene button while its LED is flashing performs a scene cut
(lights immediately go to target levels).
− When a scene is recalled, the two-dig it display will initially show the fade
time of the scene, and then count down to 0 as the scene progresses.
− For the six dual buttons, if the Raise/Lower function is enabled on Recall-
scene buttons via the iLux Designer software, and a scene is selected (LED
on steady), the right and left sides of the function button can be used to raise
and lower all dimmable lighting loads contained in that scene.
− The ON button always acts as a recall scene button for the ON scene,
operating identically to other scene-recall buttons, except that items specific
to dual buttons do not apply.
− The OFF button always acts as a recall scene button for the OFF scene,
operating identically to other scene-recall buttons, except:
1. There is no LED associated with this button. Note that “cut” during
fade will still function. Note also that a feedback LED for an OFF
button on remote keypads will act as all other scene recall LEDs – it
will flash while the off scene is being recalled, and will be lit when the
unit is in the OFF scene.
2. Items specific to dual buttons do not apply.
3. Note that if the last scene recalled was the OFF scene, the last scene
master will affect all dimmable lighting channels (since they are all
included in the “last scene”).
4. Any time all six lighting loads are off, all seven of these LEDs will
glow at a low intensity (to allow finding the CLS-C6 unit in the dark).
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
Toggle-scene buttons
• Used to alternately recall a scene or turn scene lights off (i.e., have the specified
lighting loads go to off, in the specified time).
• The toggle scene function should not be assigned to any scene that includes
shades.
• Note that the ON and OFF buttons are fixed recall scene buttons, and cannot be
defined to be toggle. (However, a remote keypad button can be defined to toggle
the ON scene, but not the OFF scene.)
• The LED is on if and only if ANY lighting load in the scene is above 0%
(ignores state of shades).
• Pressing the button while all lights are off (LED off) will recall a scene. Pressing
it while any lights are on (LED on) will turn that scene’s lights off.
• During scene recall, the scene LED will flash until all affected lighting loads
reach their target levels. After this the LED will remain on steady until all
affected lights go off.
• During scene turn off, the LED will flash until all affected lighting loads reach
0%. After this, the LED will be off until any affected light turns on.
• Pressing a scene button while its LED is flashing performs a scene cut (during
either recall or turn off).
• Behavior of the two-digit display is the same as for scene recall.
Master (Last Scene) Raise/Lower buttons
• Press the right side to raise lights, the left side to lower, release to stop.
• All dimmable lighting loads will be ramped up or down at a fixed rate, which is
the same rate as used for individual up/down operation in Lights mode.
• Non-dim lighting loads will not be affected.
• The feedback LED will light while the button is being pressed.
Lighting Master (Last Scene) Raise buttons
• Same as Master Raise/Lower button, except that pressing any part of the button
will raise lights.
Lighting Master (Last Scene) Lower buttons
• Same as Master Raise – except lowers lights instead of raising them.
Shade Control (open/stop/close/stop) Buttons:
• Used to control the specified shade group, or all shade groups.
• Press the right side of the function buttons to open the shades; press the left side
to close them. Press the button while the shade is moving to stop it.
• The feedback LED will be on only while a button is pressed.
IR Receiver
Functions can also be triggered through the built in RC5 IR receiver, using the
optional remote control.
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
Occupancy Sensing
Occupancy sensing may have specific actions specified for entry and for exit. Either
or both of these may be disabled. A limited number of actions are available when
programmed locally; more options are available when programmed using the iLux
Designer program.
If motion is detected, or some other activity takes place, a room is considered
occupied. If no activity takes place for a specified time (default is 30 minutes), the
room is considered unoccupied.
When the state of the room changes from occupied to unoccupied, the exit function
(if enabled) will be executed. When the state of the room changes from unoccupied
to occupied, due to motion detection, the entry function (if enabled) will be executed.
When the state of the room changes from unoccupied to occupied due to a button
press or the receipt of a command, no function will be executed.
NOTE: In systems with multiple CLS-C6 units that have the motion sensor function
enabled on any of the units, it is important to set the motion sensor timeout of each
unit to the same value. Otherwise, operation may not be as expected.
Lights Mode
Lights mode is used to manually adjust any of the six lighting loads.
To enter Lights mode, raise the cover and press the Lights button. The
corresponding LED will light, and the six function buttons can now be used to adjust
lighting loads 1 through 6. Any scenes that are currently in the middle of a fade will
immediately go to their target value. The seven white front panel LEDs will go out.
In this mode, these LEDs do not reflect the feedback status of the associated scenes.
When you return to Standard mode, the LEDs will return to their standard feedback
indication.
Pressing the right side of one of the six function buttons raises the corresponding
lighting load at the ramp rate. Pressing the left side of the button lowers the
corresponding load at the ramp rate. When the button is released, the lights will stop.
• The ramp rate is normally five seconds for going from full off to full on. This
can be adjusted using the iLux Designer software. Non-dim lighting loads go
immediately to full on or full off.
• The bargraphs indicate current light level.
• The two-digit display will indicate the current percentage level of the lighting
load being adjusted (oF, 01 to 99, on).
This display goes blank three seconds after the last adjustment.
While the front panel button is being pressed, the LED under the corresponding
bargraph will be lit solid to indicate which light level is being reflected.
• The Up/Down button will act as an All Lights Master when in Lights mode, no
matter what function is programmed for it. The top button will do Master Raise
(all dimmable lighting loads), and the bottom button will do Master Lower (all
dimmable lighting loads).
• The ON and OFF buttons on the CLS-C6 unit itself will operate normally while
in Lights mode as will any Scene Recall, Scene Toggle, and SceneLts_Off
commands from remote panels and Cresnet. However, during the fade, the twodigit display will not show the fade time on the unit that is in Lights mode.
• All other inputs and commands from any remote devices, motion detector, and
Cresnet Control system will be processed as usual while in Lights mode. If they
affect the lighting load (or loads) being adjusted, the manual adjustment of that
Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M iLux™ Lighting System
lighting load will terminate, and the new command will take precedence. To
manually adjust this channel after that, you must release and re-press the button.
The unit remains in Lights mode.
To exit Lights mode, press the Lights button again (or press Cancel), and the LED
will go off. The unit is now back in Standard mode. (Also, if no adjustments are
made within one minute, the unit reverts to Standard mode.)
Pressing the Shades button automatically exits Lights mode and enters Shades mode.
Shades Mode
Shades mode allows you to manually control any of the six shade groups.
To enter Shades mode, raise the cover and press the Shades bu tton. The
corresponding LED will light, and now the six function buttons can be used to adjust
shade groups 1 through 6. Any scenes that are currently in the middle of a fade will
immediately go to their target value. The seven white front panel LEDs will go out.
In this mode, these LEDs do not reflect the feedback status of the associated scenes.
When the unit is returned to Standard mode, these LEDs will return to their standard
feedback indication.
• The six function buttons act as open/stop/close/stop (rocker type) for each of the
corresponding six shade groups.
• Operation is as described for the Shade Control button type in Standard mode
(page 31.)
• For shade groups with C2N-SSC-2 controllers:
− While in Shades mode, the bargraphs indicate the current shade position.
− The two-digit display will indicate the current percentage level of the shade
group being adjusted (CL, 01 to 99, OP).
− The two-digit display disappears (goes blank) three seconds after the shade
stops moving (due to either a stop command or reaching a limit of travel).
Note that the two-digit display only shows the shade level when being
adjusted from front panel buttons in Shades mode or scene programming. It
does not display when adjusting levels from a remote panel or Cresnet.
• For shade groups with C2N-SDC or C2N-SDC-DC controllers:
− Bargraphs initially display nothing while a shade is not moving. While the
shade is moving open, the bargraph LEDs scroll in an upward direction.
While moving closed, the bargraph LEDs scroll in a downward direction.
When the shade is stopped or the maximum time is reached, the bargraph
will turn off.
− The two-digit display will show “OP” or “CL” accordingly.
− The Up/Down button will act as a shades master when in Shades mode, no
matter what function is programmed for it. Pressing the top while the shade
is stopped sends it to full open; pressing the bottom while the shade is
stopped sends it to full close; pressing anything while the shade is moving
stops it. Pressing both while the shade is stopped causes the shade to move
in the opposite direction.
− The ON and OFF buttons on the CLS-C6 unit itself, will operate normally
while in Shades mode. The same is true for all scene recall or scene toggle
functions triggered by remote panel or Cresnet command.
− Inputs/commands from any remote devices, motion detector, and Cresnet
control system are processed as usual while in Shades mode. If they affect
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
the group (or groups) being adjusted, the manual adjustment of that shade
group terminates, and the new command takes precedence. To manually
adjust this channel after that, you must release and re-press the button. The
unit remains in Shades mode.
To exit Shades mode, press the Shades button again (or press the Cancel button); the
LED will go off and the unit returns to Standard mode.Also, pressing the Lights
button automatically exits Shades mode and enters Lights mode.
If no adjustments are made for one minute, the unit automatically reverts to Standard
mode.

Use the Right Wire
Calculate Power
Check Network Wiring
In order to ensure optimum performance over the full range of your installation
topology, Crestron Certified Wire, and only Crestron Certified Wire, may be used.
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. Please use the Crestron Power
Calculator to help calculate how much power is needed for the system
(http://www.crestron.com/calculators
When calculating the length of wire for a particular Cresnet run, the wire gauge and the
Cresnet power usage of each network unit to be connected must be taken into
consideration. Use Crestron Certified Wire only. If Cresnet units are to be daisy-chained
on the run, the Cresnet power usage of each network unit to be daisy-chained must be
added together to determine the Cresnet power usage of the entire chain. If the unit is a
home-run from a Crestron system power supply network port, the Cresnet power usage
of that unit is the Cresnet power usage of the entire run. The wire gauge and the Cresnet
power usage of the run should be used in the following equation to calculate the cable
length value on the equation’s left side.
iLux™ Lighting System Crestron CLS/CLSI-C6 & CLS/CLSI-C6M
Cable Length Equation
Strip and Tin Wire
Add Hubs
L = Length of run (or chain) in feet
R = 6 Ohms (Crestron Certifi ed Wi re: 18 AWG (0.75 MM ))
or 1.6 Ohms (Cresnet HP: 12 AW G (4 MM ))
P = Cresnet power usage of entire run (or chain)
2
2
L <
40,000
Where:
R x P
Make sure the cable length value is less than the value calculated on the right side of the
equation. For example, a Cresnet run using 18 AWG Crestron Certified Wire and
drawing 20 watts should not have a length of run more than 333 feet. If Cresnet HP is
used for the same run, its length could extend to 1250 feet.
NOTE: All Crestron certified Cresnet wiring must consist of two twisted pairs. One
twisted pair is the +24V conductor and the GND conductor, and the other twisted pair is
the Y conductor and the Z conductor.
When daisy-chaining Cresnet units, strip the ends of t he wi r es care full y to avoi d ni cking
the conductors. Twist together the ends of the wires that share a pin on the network
connector, and tin the twisted connection. Apply solder only to the ends of the twisted
wires. Avoid tinning too far up the wires or the end becomes brittle. Insert the tinned
connection into the Cresnet connector and tighten th e retaining screw. Repeat the
procedure for the other three conductors.
For larger networks (i.e., greater than 28 network devices), it may become necessary to
add a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to maintain signal quality throughout the
network. Also, for networks with lengthy cable runs, it may be necessary to add a
Hub/Repeater after only 20 devices.

Appendix D: Button Functions
Following is a list of button functions, in table format, one function per table. Each
table lists Behavior, LED Action, Applies to, Rocker behavior, and Notes. Some
topics may not apply to certain button types; this is defined in the “Applies to” row.
There are four classes of buttons to be considered:
• Standard Rocker: these are the six function buttons on the front p ane l of the
CLS-C6, while the CLS-C6 is in Standard mode and the shift flag is not set.
• Shifted Rocker: these are the same physical buttons as the Standard Rocker, but
are active when the shift flag is set.
• Up/Down Rocker: this is the vertical button on the face of the CLS-C6.
• Remote Button: these are single-action (i.e. non-rocker) buttons located on
remote keypads.
Function name Recall Scene (off, on, 1-15)
Behavior Fades specified lights to specified levels in the specified time. (Non-dim
LED action Flash while lights are actively fading, Scene-interlocked* afterwards.

behavior
Notes The ON and OFF buttons always recall the On and Off Scene,
loads will switch at the beginning or end of the specified time, as
determined by the Load Type option for each load.)
Also, sends specified shades to specified positions, (the time is
determined by the motor).
Note that the off scene is special in that you cannot specify which
lighting loads are affected, or what their target levels should be – all
lighting loads go to full off (definitely causing air-gap relay to open).
Fade time and shade behavior can still be specified.
(Note that for Recall Off Scene, LED will be on when all lights are off.)
*LED will go on when scene is recalled. LED will remain on until another
scene is recalled (or Lights_in_Scenex_Off is executed) which has
overlapping lighting load or shade group programming. That is, a scene
which affects at least one common lighting load or shade group.
If the “Enable Raise/Lower on Scene Recall Buttons” option is set in
iLux Designer, the right and left rockers perform “Scene Raise” and
“Scene Lower” functions if, and only if, the scene feedback LED for that
button is lit.
If the “Enable Raise/Lower on Scene Recall Buttons” option is not set,
then the right, left, and center press all do the same thing.
respectively. The assigned functions cannot be changed.
Function name Turn Off Scene Lights (on, 1-15)
