Crestron CLW-SW1/4RF, -SWS1/4RF, -SLVS1RF infiNET™ Switches

infiNET™ Switches:
CLW-SW1/4RF, -SWS1/4RF,

-SLVS1RF

Introduction

Features and Functions

The CLW-SW1RF (-SW1RF) one-button switch and CLW-SW4RF (-SW4RF)

four-button switch are stand-alone wall box switches that can also act as wireless

infiNET™ devices that report to a Crestron® control processor via a Crestron

infiNET wireless gateway.

infiNET Switches Functional Summary

• Two-way infiNET switches

⇒

2.4 GHz infiNET mesh network technology

⇒

Range up to 150 feet indoors, or 250 ft outdoors (subject to site­specific conditions)

⇒

Range may be increased with the use of additional infiNET devices
or C2N-MNETRPT repeaters

⇒

“Wi-Fi” friendly operating frequency to avoid interference

• One-button and four-button configurations available in white, black,
and almond

• Can be ordered with custom-engraved buttons

• Can operate as a local load control or infiNET keypad.

These switches can be operated with a user-adjustable delay up to 10 minutes and 55
seconds. For more information, refer to “Operation” on page 10 for more
information.

These infiNET switches are a 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.

As an infiNET device, these switches communicate with a Crestron control system
via a C2N-MNETGW infiNET Gateway. Up to 30 infiNET devices (including
C2N-MNETRPT infiNET Repeaters) can communicate with one C2N-MNETGW

infiNET Gateway and, if more devices are needed, more C2N-MNETGW gateways
may be added to a Cresnet® network.

Crestron infiNET switches 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 switch 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 -SW1RF and -SW4RF feature a three-position mode selection switch. Refer to
“Operation” on page 10 for more information. In the absence of control system
communications, the switch can still be used to control the attached load.

The CLW-SWS1RF (-SWS1RF) and CLW-SWS4RF (-SWS4RF) are similar to the

-SW1RF and -SW4RF (respectively) with the added capability of working with one
or more slave units (CLW-SLVS1RF) in a multi-switch / single circuit application.
For more information, refer to the latest version of the infiNET Switches Installation
Guide (Doc. 6293) which is available from the Crestron website
(www.crestron.com/manuals).

The CLW-SLVS1RF (-SLVS1RF) is a slave unit that when used in conjunction with
the -SWS1RF or -SWS4RF acts as an additional switch control point in a multi­switch / single circuit application. It does not connect to an infiNET system and
cannot be used without a -SWS1RF or -SWS4RF. The -SLVS1RF does not have a
mode selection switch. It can only be programmed when used in conjunction with a

-SWS4RF (refer to the SIMPL™ Windows
RUN mode of the -SWS1RF (even if connected to a -SWS4RF) unless the mode
selection switch of the master is set to “OFF”.

Physical Description

The -SW1RF and -SWS1RF have a light emitting diode (LED) with adjustable
brightness (via Crestron programming software), a rocker button, and a three­position mode selection switch as shown in the following diagrams. The button may
be pushed at the top or bottom to perform certain functions. Pushing the button in the
middle does not do anything. The function of the pushbutton is determined by the
position of the mode selection switch. For more information, refer to “Operation” on
page 10.
