DIN-8SW8
Introduction Introduction
The DIN-8SW8 is an eight channel high-voltage switching module
designed to support switching of non-dimmable lighting and fans. A
single model supports both 120 and 220-240 Volt applications. Each
channel handles incandescent loads up to 10 Amps, fluorescent loads up
to 5 Amps and also ½ HP motors.*
* May not be compatible with some high inrush current loads.
Features and Functions
• Eight channels of power switching
• Supports 120-240 Volt 50/60 Hz
• Override input
• Cresnet
• Setup via front panel or software
• Programmable functionality via DIN-AP2 or other 2-Series
control system
• 9M wide DIN rail mounting

DIN Rail Installation
The DIN-8SW8 is designed to snap onto a standard DIN rail for
installation in a wall mount enclosure. Wiring connections are made
using screw terminals positioned along the top and bottom, clearly
accessible from the front for easy installation and servicing. All setup
controls and indicators are positioned on the center front panel. When
installed in an enclosure utilizing 45 mm cutouts, the DIN-8SW8’s front
panel stays accessible while the connections are concealed.
Cresnet
®
The DIN-8SW8 communicates with a DIN-AP2 2-Series Automation
Processor or other Crestron
®
2-Series control system via the Cresnet
control network. A pair of Cresnet ports is provided on the DIN-8SW8
allowing for easy daisy chaining of several DIN Rail Series automation
control modules.
Override Input
An override input is provided to allow an external contact closure to
momentarily override the control system program and set each channel
output to its override preset state. States can be set and saved locally from
the front panel or remotely via software.
