Vive PowPak Dimming Module with 0 –10 V- Control
The PowPak Dimming Module with 0 –10 V- Control is a radio frequency (RF) control that operates 0 –10 V- controlled fluorescent ballasts or LED drivers based on input from Pico remote controls and Radio Powr Savr sensors. The Dimming Module with 0 –10 V- Control is ideal for small areas (e.g., classrooms, conference rooms, private offices). Communication with RF input devices (e.g., Pico remote controls, Radio Powr Savr sensors) is accomplished by using Lutron Clear Connect RF Technology. These products are also compatible with the Vive hub which enables a simple setup process using a standard web browser on any Wi-Fi-enabled phone, tablet or computer. It also enables control and monitoring of all Vive devices. The Vive hub can be added at any time. System reprogramming will be required. For a complete list of features supported with the Vive hub, see specification submittal 369902 at www.lutron.com

Mounting
- This device can be installed on a junction box or marshaling box using the conduit nut or with mounting screws. The device must NOT be mounted inside a metallic enclosure – only on the exterior of a junction box, or marshalling box. Improper installation can result in degraded wireless communications and intermittent or sustained communications failures and will not be covered under warranty. For applications (in U.S.A.) where code requires the PowPak control to be installed inside an additional junction box, please see Lutron Application Note #423 (P/N 048423) at www.lutron.com for how to perform this installation. For all other installations, refer to the installation instructions and consult local and national electric codes for proper installation. The PowPak control needs to be accessible for some programming steps. Record where it is mounted of that it can be easily located later.

Emergency Model Sequence of Operation With a Vive hub:
- Normal mode: The RMJS-8T-DV-B-EM can dim loads as normal and respond to local button presses, Pico wireless controls, and occupancy/daylight sensors.
- Emergency mode: Emergency override mode can be entered on the emergency PowPak either by receiving an override signal* from the Vive hub or by temporarily losing power**. When in emergency override mode the PowPak will go to full output /relay closed. It will not respond to any local button presses, Pico wireless controls, occupancy sensors, daylight sensors, timeclock events, or preset scene calls. The emergency light level of the emergency PowPak can be configured using the Vive hub.
- Return from emergency mode to normal mode: When normal power is restored to the Vive hub or the override signal* from the Vive hub is cleared, and power is restored to the emergency PowPak, the emergency PowPak will return to the previous light level in most cases within 3 minutes, but guaranteed within 10 minutes of normal power being restored. It will again respond to local button presses, Pico wireless controls, occupancy sensors, daylight sensors, timeclock events, and preset scene calls. Note: See App Note #628 (P/N 048628) on www.lutron.com for emergency lighting applications.
- Override signal triggered from the contact closure #2 on the Vive hub from one of the following inputs:
- Fire alarm control panel
- Security system
- LUT-ELI-3PH
For more information on the functionality of contact closure #2 on the Vive hub, see the Vive hub spec sheet (P/N 369902).
- Power must be interrupted for more than 3 seconds at 120 V~, or more than 6 seconds at higher operating voltages, to activate emergency mode.
Without a Vive hub:
- Normal mode: The RMJS-8T-DV-B-EM can dim loads as normal and respond to local button presses, Pico wireless controls, and occupancy / daylight sensors.
- Emergency mode: If the emergency PowPak loses power**, it will automatically go into emergency mode (full output, relay closed) for 90 minutes, when emergency power is restored to the PowPak. The RMJS-8T-DV-B-EM will not respond to all local button presses, Pico wireless controls, occupancy and daylight sensors for 90 minutes.
- Return from emergency mode to normal mode: When normal power is restored, the emergency PowPak will remain in emergency mode for 90 minutes (full output, relay closed). It will then return to the previous light level and accept local button control, inputs from Pico wireless controls, and occupancy/daylight sensors.
Default Operation

- Occupancy Sensors:
- Occupied: 100%; Unoccupied: 0% (OFF)
- Pico Remote Controls:

Warranty
- 1-year limited warranty. The customer can register the product to increase the warranty period from1 one year to 5 years. Please visit www.lutron.com/TechnicalDocumentLibrary/369-119Wallbox Warranty.pdf for warranty details.
Advanced Configurations
Pico Remote Controls
- Up to 10 Pico remote controls
- Favorite levels can be set for each Pico remote control Radio Powr Savr Daylight Sensor
- The Radio Powr Savr daylight sensor will affect all connected ballast and LED drivers equally
- For multple rows of daylighting, a separate PowPak Dimming Module with 0 –10 V- must be used for each daylighting row
Minimum Light Level Setting (optional)
- Certain applications, such as hallways, may require that the lights never turn off. For these areas, select the minimum light level option and the load will lower to programed low-end level. Default operation lowers to OFF.
High- and Low-End Trim
- High-end and low-end trim affect all connected fixtures equally, and can be configured from the PowPak Dimming Module.
- Adjustable low-end trim (0% –45%). Trimmable low‑end can ensure a stable light level. Some fixtures will flicker or drop out if trimmed too low.
- The maximum light output of connected fixtures can be decreased down to 55% for energy savings in over-lit spaces.
Note: The perceived light output of low-end trim may vary between fixture manufacturers and model numbers. For best results, do not mix different ballasts or drivers on the same 0 –10 V- circuit.
Radio Powr Savr Occupancy Sensors
- Radio Powr Savr occupancy and vacancy sensors control all connected ballasts or drivers.
- Pico remote controls can be used to adjust the Occupied levels of fixtures that they control from 1% to 100% (of output signal) or can make them unaffected by Occupancy events.
- Vacancy events (area becomes unoccupied) turn all ballasts and driver models off or to minimum light level.
