CLW-DIM1, DIMS1, & SLVD1(W/A/B)
Introduction
Features and Functions
The CLW-DIM1 (-DIM1) is a stand-alone wall box
dimmer that can also act as a Cresnet
to a Crestron® control processor. The CLW-DIM1 has
two preset lighting levels that can be adjusted (refer to
note below). The CLW-DIM1 also includes two isolated,
non-polarized Cresnet wires (plus a ground wire) for
connecting to the Cresnet network over a twisted pair
wire with shield.
NOTE: The two preset levels are noted as Preset 1-High
and Preset 1- Low. “Preset 1-High” is usually used for
turning lights on to full brightness while preset “Preset 1Low” is usually used for turning the lights off. Although
“Preset 1-High” and “Preset 1-Low” are usually used for
“On” and “Off” respectively, the light level for each
preset can be customized by the user. Refer to
“Operation” on page 6 for more information on
customizing light levels.
The CLW-DIM1 features a three-position mode selection
switch. Refer to “Operation” on page 6 for more
information. In the absence of Cresnet communications,
the dimmer can still be used to control lighting.
The CLW-DIMS1 (-DIMS1) is similar to the -DIM1 with
the added capability of working with a slave unit
(CLW-SLVD1) in a multi-dimmer / single circuit
application.
The CLW-SLVD1 (-SLVD1) is a slave unit that when
used in conjunction with the -DIMS1 acts as an additional
dimmer control point in a multi-dimmer / single circuit
application. It does not connect to a Cresnet system and
cannot be used without a -DIMS1. The -SLVD1 does not
have a mode selection switch and is not programmable. It
emulates the operation of the -DIMS1 to which it is
connected unless the mode selection switch of the master
is set to “OFF”.
These dimmers are available in white, almond, and black.
White units are designated by part numbers ending in
“W”. Almond units are designated by part numbers
ending in “A”. Black units are designated by part numbers
ending in “B”. Each dimmer can be covered with a
decorative faceplate (not supplied).

CLW-DIM1, DIMS1, & SLVD1(W/A/B)
Physical Description
The -DIM1 and -DIMS1 contain one large pushbutton, a
light emitting diode (LED) with software adjustable
brightness*, and a three-position slider-switch, shown
after this paragraph. Line voltage connections are made at
the rear of the dimmer. Three Class 2 low voltage wires,
located on the front of the dimmer, provide a Cresnet
connection to a control system. The wires can be routed to
the bottom of the unit for placement outside of the wall
box. The -SLVD1 is similar to the -DIM1 and -DIMS1
but does not have the slider-switch or the Class 2 low
voltage wires.
* LED brightness can only be adjusted through Crestron programming
software.

Electrical Code (Article 725-55) prohibits Class
2 conductors of the -DIM1, -DIMS1, and
-SLVD1 to occupy the same outlet box as the
power conductors. The exception is Part D of
Section 725.55 of the 2002 National Electrical
Code, which allows a device’s power conductors
to be installed near (0.25 inch minimum spacing)
associated Class 2 conductors in the same outlet
box. Consult the 2002 National Electrical Code
Handbook and your local electrical inspector
before proceeding.
Do not use the supplied butt-splice connectors if
the Class 2 conductors are to be installed in the

connections, use wires rated for at least 75°C.
recommends using 3 ½” deep wallboxes. Several
devices can be installed in one wall box
(multigang). This requires the removal of side
sections (refer to diagram on page 4) and the
derating of the dimming device. For a smooth
appearance, one-piece multigang faceplates (not
supplied) can be installed.
• Other Switch Devices: Mechanical 3- or 4-way
switches will not work with the -DIM1, -DIMS1,
or -SLVD1.
• Spacing: If mounting one device above another,
leave at least 4 ½” vertical space between them.
• Low Voltage Applications: Use with core and
coil (magnetic) low voltage transformers only.
Do not use any solid-state electronic low voltage
transformers.
Operation of a low voltage circuit with all lamps
inoperative or removed may result in current
flow in excess of normal levels. To avoid
transformer overheating and premature
transformer failure, Crestron recommends the
following:
Do not operate low voltage circuits
without operative lamps in place.
Replace burned-out lamps as quickly as
possible.
Use transformers that incorporate
thermal protection or fuse transformer
primary windings to prevent
transformer failure due to overcurrent.
Multigang Installations
In multigang installations, several controls are grouped
horizontally in one wallbox. For a smooth appearance,
one-piece multigang faceplates (not supplied) can be

Buttons of CLW-DIM1, -DIMS1, and -SLVD1
Button
Mode Selection Switch
(-DIM1 & -DIMS1 Only)
OFF
When the mode selection switch is in the “OFF” position,
the pushbutton will not have any function and the load is
disconnected from the power source. This must be used
when changing light bulbs to ensure that the load is fully
disconnected from power.
ADJ
When the mode selection switch is in the “ADJ” position,
the pushbutton is used to switch between the “Preset 1High” and “Preset 1-Low” presets (typically “On” and
“Off”) as well as adjust the lighting level. Tap the
pushbutton to fade up or down to either of the two preset
lighting levels. Tap the pushbutton while the lighting
level is fading to jump directly to the preset lighting level
without fading. (i.e., tapping while the lighting level is
fading up will jump to the “Preset 1-High” level without
fading, tapping while the lighting level is fading down
will jump to the “Preset 1-Low” level without fading).
While the light is off, double-tap the pushbutton to jump
directly to the “Preset 1-High” lighting level without
fading.
ramp up or down. The lighting level will stop at
maximum brightness (100%) if the lighting level was
ramping up or minimum brightness (0%) if the lighting
level was ramping down. To continue ramping the
lighting level in the opposite direction, release the
pushbutton, then press and hold the pushbutton again.
When the desired lighting level is reached, release the
pushbutton.
If the lighting level is to be stored as a preset, move the
mode selection switch to the PRE position. Press and hold
the pushbutton until the LED flashes.
PRE
NOTE: Before storing a preset, the lighting must be
adjusted to the desired level while in the ADJ mode.
When the switch is in the PRE position, it is in the preset
mode and can be used to recall and/or store preset lighting
levels. The pushbutton is used to recall and/or store the
“Preset 1-High” and “Preset 1-Low” presets. Pressing and
releasing the pushbutton will fade to the preset lighting
level over a preset amount of time*. Tapping the
pushbutton while the light is fading will cause the light
level to “jump” directly to the preset without fading.
Pressing and holding the pushbutton until the LED flashes
will store the current lighting level.
* The preset fade time can only be adjusted through Crestron
programming software.
To store preset values for “Preset 1-High” and “Preset 1Low”; while in the PRE mode, recall the lighting level to
be changed. Switch to the ADJ mode and adjust the
lighting to the desired level. Move the mode selection
switch to PRE. Press and hold the pushbutton until the
LED flashes to store the new preset value.
NOTE: If a new preset value for “Preset 1-High” is
lower than the stored value for “Preset 1-Low”, the
previously stored value for “Preset 1-Low” becomes
“Preset 1-High”. Similarly, if a new preset value for
“Preset 1-low” is higher than the value stored for “Preset
1-High”, the previously stored value for “Preset 1-High”
becomes “Preset 1-Low”.
NOTE: The default preset light values for each preset
are:
• Preset 1-High: 100%
• Preset 1-Low: 0%
NOTE: The device may be warm to the touch during
operation. This is normal.
The lighting level can be adjusted by pressing and holding
the pushbutton. After a ½ second, the lighting level will
