OVERVIEW
The DimOnOff® CTL-KEY Controllers are stand-alone wireless PLC transceivers, designed to be integrated in DimOnOff® control & automation networks.
They may replace standard switches, or be added anywhere on the circuits. In conjunction with any of the DimOnOff® Load Modules series, the user can build sophisticated automated environments including lighting, heating and cooling, window shutters, energy monitoring, etc.
The CTL-KEY modules are designed on a modular concept that integrates the Logic Module with the Analog Front End & Power Supply.
This compact and versatile design features 6 buttons. Each button can be programmed to transmit 3 different Scenarios, corresponding to one of the 3 actions: Hit, Maintain and Release.
As with all other modules of the DimOnOff® automation series, the configuration of this control keypad is done remotely, using the DimOnOff® software. But once this operation has taken place, the CTL-KEY (and all other modules) will be fully autonomous, and will not necessitate the presence of a computer on the network, unless functionalities such as scheduling or data acquisition are required.
FEATURES
- 6 buttons - 3 functions each
- Compact design to be easily installed in standard electrical boxes and replace regular switches
- Sends On/Off, Bright/Dim and many user-programmed commands
- Optional (User-defined) powerline repeater function, for large infrastructures
- Low power consumption
- Reliable wilress PLC communication in high attenuation (0.5? min.) and noisy electrical environments
- Very robust narrowband FSK modulation including advanced processing functions
- Power supply: 2 options
-
- 120 V
- 16 V (Requires Transfo-coupler 16V/347V or 16V/120V, for the connection to the powerline)
- Up to 8 keypads CTL-KEY can be connected to each Transfo-Coupler (CPL-16-120 or CPL-16-347)

CAUTIONS AND NOTES
The DimOnOff® Configuration software is required to configure the CTL-KEY module and is sold separately.
The CTL-KEY must be installed inside into an electrical box of proper size.
Only used for junction boxes where min. 90°C wiring is used.
These devices are intended for installation in accordance with your local electric code and regulations. It is recommended that a qualified electrician perform this installation.
