echoflex ELEDR-RH Power Load Controller
Overview
The ELEDR Power Load Controller is used to switch circuits for lighting,
motor, receptacle, or general purpose loads. It receives input from linked
wireless devices or gateways based on switch stations, room occupancy state,
ambient light levels, scheduled events and network commands. The ELEDR can
also provide process control for circuit or fan control applications
eliminating long wire runs.
This document covers installation of ELEDR(H) Power Load
Controller models. The Echoflex Power Load Controller ELEDR Configuration
Guide is available for download at
echoflexsolutions.com.
The package contents includes the controller and the installation guide.
Prepare for Installation
Echoflex recommends paying special attention to the installation environment.
- High density construction materials and large metal appliances or fixtures in the space may disrupt wireless reception.
- Mount the controller to an electrical junction box or a panel in a location and at a height where it is not subject to tampering by unauthorized personnel.
Supplies required to install the controller (not provided):
- Appropriately sized wire nuts
- Wire insulation
- Small cable ties
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Risk of electric shock! This device utilizes high voltage and
should only be installed by a qualified installer or electrician. Follow all
local codes for installation. Before terminating the AC power wiring verify
that the main breaker is in the off position and follow the proper lockout/tag
out procedures per NFPA Standard 70E.
WARNING: For indoor use only! Must install to an electrical junction box or
wireway.
- This product is suitable for use in dry locations where the ambient temperatures is -5°C to 50°C (23°F to 122°F).
- Do not use outdoors.
- Do not mount near gas or electric heaters.
- Equipment should be mounted in locations and at heights where it is not subject to tampering by unauthorized personnel.
- The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
- Do not use this equipment for other than its intended use.
- Servicing should be performed by qualified service personnel.
- Pollution Degree: 2.
Installation
All local codes and standard electrical practices should be observed. Ensure that the junction box is clean and free of obstructions and that all wiring is installed correctly.
Note: Follow applicable NEC and local electrical code requirements when installing and powering the controller.
Install the Controller
Mount the controller directly to the exterior of the junction box or panel
either at the electrical load or before the load in the circuit.
Review these instructions completely before installing the controller.
- Locate the circuit breaker panel and terminate power to the circuit.
- Remove the cover plate and other hardware from the junction box to access the wiring.
- Mount the controller.
- Refer to the wiring diagram to connect the controller to line power, neutral, and load wires. Use wire nuts on all connections and individually cap any bare wires, except the orange antenna wire.
- Connect the gray and the striped violet/red wires to the driver or ballast’s dimming interface. Connect the striped violet/green 0-10 V analog color control output wire to the tunable white input on the LED driver.
- Replace the electrical box cover plate.
- Restore power to the circuit.
Note: The Micro USB port is for factory use only. Do not attach cables or accessories to this port.

Electrical Terminations
Power to the controller is connected between the White (Neutral) and the Black Line power: ELED2 (120-277 VAC) or ELED2H (240–347 VAC). The Class 1 power limited dimming lines (violet with red stripe wires) is used to provide 0–10 V intensity control of a dimming ballast or LED driver. The orange wire is an antenna. Do not cut, cap or connect this wire. Use only UL approved wire when making connections to the controller (see table below).
Connection | Color | Specification |
---|---|---|
Load | Red | 14 AWG, 600 V |
Neutral | White | 14 AWG, 600 V |
Line | Black | 14 AWG, 600 V |
Controller Interface
The controller interface has two tricolor LEDs and two buttons.
LEDs
The Power LED (red) and Learn LED (green) indicate whether the controller is providing information via blink codes or is in an operational mode. See Blink Codes and Operations on page 7.
Learn Button
The [Learn] button initiates Link mode for linking switches or sensors in each
of the controller’s channels. See the relevant switch or sensor documentation
for information on linking. Link mode times out after 30 seconds of
inactivity.
Repeating the linking process for a device that is already linked to a
controller will unlink it from that controller.
Clear Button
The [Clear] button resets the controller either to its pre-commissioned state or to its factory default state.
To reset to the pre-commissioned state:
- Press the [Clear] button until the Power and Learn LEDs start blinking.
- Release the [Clear] button. The LEDs repeat a blink code by color to indicate the type and number of devices linked to each channel at pre-commissioning.
To reset to factory default state:
- Press and hold the [Clear] button until the Power and Learn LEDs start blinking. Continue to hold for 15 seconds until the LEDs turn solid.
- Release the [Clear] button. The Power LED displays solid red to indicate factory default state. All links are removed.
Test the Controller
Echoflex provides the controller in either a pre-commissioned state or a factory default state.
- Pre-commissioned devices are linked, configured, and labelled according to customer specifications. When powered up, the LEDs repeat a blink code by color to indicate the type and number of devices currently linked to each channel. See Blink Codes and Operations on page 7. To test the relay(s), press the [Learn] button or use a linked switch
- In factory default state, when powered up, the Power LED displays solid red to indicate the controller has no linked devices. To test the relay(s), press the [Learn] button or link a switch. See relevant switch documentation.
A maximum of 20 switches or sensors can be linked to one controller.
Blink Codes and Operations
The tables below describe the controller’s LED blink codes and operating activity.
- If the controller is in factory default state, the Power LED remains solid On.
- If the controller has one or more devices linked to it, the Power LED repeats a code of blinks that represent the type and number of linked devices. Long blinks=type. Short blinks=count.
