SAVI Controls QSS-01 Smart Switch Installation Guide
Smart Dimmer Wiring/Installation Instructions
-
Shut off power to the circuit at circuit breaker or fuse box.
IMPORTANT: Verify power is OFF to switch box before continuing. -
Remove wall plate.
-
Remove the switch mounting screws.
-
Carefully remove the switch from the switch box.
Note: DO NOT disconnect the wires. -
There are up to five screw terminals on the switch, these are marked:
- GROUND
- LINE – black (connected to power)
- LOAD – black or red (connected to lighting/load)
- TRAVELER – black or red (only in 3-way installations)
- NEUTRAL – white
-
Match these screw terminals to the wires connected to the existing switch.
-
Disconnect the wires from the existing switch.
-
Label wires according to the previous terminal connection.
Multi-Switch Wiring
For 3-way installations, refer to the companion switch manual.
Wire Gauge Requirements
Use 12AWG or 14AWG wires suitable for at least 75ºC for supplying line (hot),
load, neutral, ground, and traveler connections.
Wire Strip Length
For attachment using the enclosure’s holes, strip insulation
5/8in (16mm). UL specifies the tightening torque for the
screws is 14Kgf-cm (12lbf-in).
Refer to the diagram and follow the steps below.
-
Connect the green or bare copper ground wire to the GROUND terminal.
-
Connect the black wire from the light to the LOAD terminal.
-
Connect the black wire from the electrical service panel (hot) to the LINE terminal.
-
Connect the white wire to the NEUTRAL terminal (use a jumper wire if needed).
Note: The traveler terminal is only used for 3-way or
4-way wiring and should not be connected if the dimmer is being installed in a 2-way system (one switch & one load). -
Insert the switch into the switch box being careful not to pinch or crush wires.
-
The switch must be independently mounted (vertical position only).
-
Secure the switch to the box using the supplied screws.
-
Mount the wall plate.
-
Reapply power to the circuit at fuse box or circuit breaker and test the system.
Basic Operation
The connected light can be turned ON/OFF in two ways.
- Manually from the front panel of the switch
- Remotely via the SAVI Server
Manual Control
The front panel rocker switch allows the user to turn ON/OFF or connected
fixture by completing the following steps:
- To turn the connected fixture ON, press and release the top of the rocker.
- To turn the connected fixture OFF, press and release the bottom of the rocker.
IMPORTANT: This switch is rated for and intended to only be used with copper wire.
3-Way Circuit (Companion switch)
Off the shelf 3-Way Circuit
Note: For 3-way configurations, ensure the smart dimmer is installed in the junction box where Line (Hot) enters the electrical circuit. Insert wires into holes, do not wrap wires around screws. Do not remove screws. The Qoralux Smart Switch is designed to operate in either 120VAC or 277VAC circuits. For 277VAC 3-way circuits, use standard “off-the-shelf” 277VAC compatible 3-way switch.
