The CLW-DIM1RF (-DIM1RF) and CLW-DIM4RF
(-DIM4RF) are stand-alone wall box dimmers that can
also act as wireless infiNET™ devices that report to a
Crestron
such as the Crestron C2N-MNETGW. The -DIM1RF and
-DIM4RF have three preset lighting levels that can be
adjusted. For more information, refer to the latest version
of the infiNET Dimmers Operations Guide (Doc. 6396)
which is available from the Crestron website
(www.crestron.com/manuals).
These dimmers are part of Crestron’s line of lighting
products using infiNET mesh network technology.
infiNET technology is “Wi-Fi” friendly and provides fault
tolerance and increased effective signal strength as
network devices are added.
Up to 30 infiNET devices (including C2N-MNETRPT
infiNET Repeaters) can communicate with one
C2N-MNETGW Gateway. If more devices are needed,
more C2N-MNETGW gateways may be added to a
Cresnet
The infiNET dimmers operate on the 2.4 GHz “ISM
band” (2400 MHz to 2483.6 MHz) at 10 mW. The output
power of these devices allow RF signals to travel
approximately 150 feet indoors and 250 feet outdoors
(subject to site-specific conditions) without the use of
repeaters or other infiNET devices. The range is
dependent on construction of the building, obstructions,
and RF interference from other devices. The location of
the dimmer is an important factor in determining RF
performance. Adding more infiNET devices or repeaters
to the network effectively increases the range, strength,
and reliability of the network.
The -DIM1RF and -DIM4RF feature a three-position
mode selection switch. For more information, refer to the
latest version of the infiNET Dimmers Operations Guide
(Doc. 6396) which is available from the Crestron website.
In the absence of control system communications, the
dimmer can still be used to control the attached load.
The CLW-DIMS1RF (-DIMS1RF) and CLW-DIMS4RF
(-DIMS4RF) are similar to the -DIM1RF and -DIM4RF
(respectively) with the added capability of working with
one or more slave units (CLW-SLVD1RF) in a multidimmer / single circuit application.

connect to a Cresnet system and cannot be used without a
-DIMS1RF or -DIMS4RF. The -SLVD1RF does not have
a mode selection switch. It will emulate the RUN mode of
the -DIMS1RF (even if connected to a -DIMS4RF) unless
the mode selection switch of the master is set to “OFF”.
For more information, refer to the latest version of the
infiNET Dimmers Operations Guide (Doc. 6396) which is
available from the Crestron website.
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).
Specifications
Following are specifications for the -DIM1RF, -DIM4RF,

halogen only.
• Temperature: The -DIM1RF, -DIM4RF,
-DIMS1RF, -DIMS4RF, and -SLVD1RF are
designed for use where temperatures are between
32° to 104°F (0° to 40°C).
• Wallboxes: Devices mount in standard
wallboxes. For easy installation, Crestron
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 - DIM1RF,
-DIM4RF, -DIMS1RF, -DIMS4RF, and
-SLVD1RF.
• 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
installed.
1. When combining controls in a wallbox, remove
inner side sections prior to wiring as shown in
the following diagram.
