REGULATORY APPROVALS
•UL, CSA, NOM
AIR GAP
•Air gap provided by FASS
(Front Accessible Service Switch).
MOUNTING
•Controls mount in standard U.S. wallboxes. For easier
installation, Lutron recommends using 3-1/2" (89mm)
deep wallboxes.
GANGING
•When ganging Vareo-Style Local Lighting Controls, it
is necessary to remove side fins and to derate the
control.
VERTICAL SPACING
•If mounting one control above another, leave at least
4-1/2" (11.4cm) vertical spacing between them.

•Daisy-chain, star, T-tap, home run. Link terminator not
required. Total length of wire on any Dimmer Interface
bus cannot exceed 500 ft. (150m) Maximum of 4
devices per Dimmer Interface bus.
LOW-VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS
•Butt-splice (provided).
ADDRESSING
•Address via DIP switch located on front of unit
underneath the wallplate. The device may be
addressed without removing it from the wall.
AUXILIARY CONTROLS
•Use only Lutron Auxiliary Tapswitches (model # VETS-
R); mechanical 3- or 4-way switches will not work. Up
to 9 VETS-R Auxiliary Tapswitches may be used with
one Vareo-Style Local Dimming or Switching Control.

•Meet or exceed ANSI/IEEE standard c62.41
ESD PROTECTION
•Yes
FAIL-SAFE OPERATION
•In the unlikely event that communication with the
Processor is interrupted, all Vareo-Style Local Lighting
Controls will still operate, offering local control.
