Introduction
Features and Functions
The iLux™units, CLS-C6 and CLS-C6M, are wall-
mounted complete integrated lighting systems that can
function as standalone devices and/or be part of a
Crestron®solution total control system network
(Cresnet®). The units are functionally identical except that
the CLS-C6M includes a built-in motion sensor.

channels of lighting loads, including incandescent,
magnetic low-voltage, neon/cold cathode, and two-wire
dimmable fluorescent (e.g., Advance Mark X)*. Each unit
also provides automated control of up to six groups of
shade and drape controllers for motorized window
treatments, screens, and lifts.
Front panel operation provides manual control of lighting
loads and shade groups as well as access to up to sixteen
scenes (lighting level/shade position combinations).
A built-in IR receiver allows for wireless operation using
an optional infrared remote generating standard RC5
commands; a built-in motion detector (CLS-C6M only)
enables automated control based on room occupancy.
Up to 16 Crestron keypads (sold separately) can be used
with each unit for control of rooms that have several
entrances or work areas. Each unit also supports up to
eight additional CLS-C6 units, enabling systems of up to
54 lighting channels and 54 shade groups.

Physical Description Installation
The following illustration shows the overall dimensions
for the CLS-C6 and CLS-C6M. WARNING: Turn off power at the distribution panel
circuit breaker. Installing with power on can result in
serious personal injury and damage to the device.
CLS-C6M Overall Dimensions
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of overheating and
possible damage to other equipment, do not install to
control a receptacle or a motor-operated appliance.
NOTE: The CLS-C6 units require a neutral wire for
operation. If no neutral is present, contact a licensed
electrician for installation.
The following tools/hardware are required for installation.
• A 4-gang electrical box (not supplied), 3.5 inches
deep, minimum.
• Phillips torque screwdriver (not supplied)
Industry Compliance • Four 7/8-inch pan head Phillips screws
(supplied)
These units have been manufactured to comply with UL’s
Standards for Safety in the United States and Canada.
Formal approval is pending. If the planned configuration includes connection to shade
controllers, keypads, and/or a Crestron 2-Series control
system, the following items are also required. Refer to the
latest version of the Crestron CLS-C6 & CLS-C6M iLux
Lighting System Operations Guide, Doc. 6347, for
detailed configuration options.
NOTE: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC
rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
• Cresnet network cable(s) (not supplied)
• Terminal block connector(s) (two supplied)
Check that any required Cresnet wiring has been installed
and verified. Then, use the following procedure to install
the iLux unit (CLS-C6M is shown in the illustrations).
Important Notes
Read before installation.
1. Feed the wires (power line from the distribution
panel, load wires, plus any required Cresnet
cables) through the holes in the wallbox. Then
install the box in the wall.
• Codes: Install in accordance with all local and
national electrical codes.
• Wiring: Use copper wire only. For supply
connections, use wires rated for at least 75°C.
• Lighting Load Types: incandescent, magnetic
low voltage, neon/cold cathode, dimmable
2-wire fluorescent, and non-dim lighting
(also: electronic low voltage, 3-wire and 4-wire
fluorescent, and 277V via expansion modules;
sold separately).
• Temperature: The iLux units are designed for
use where temperatures are between 32° to
104°F (0° to 40°C).
• Wallboxes: The iLux units mount in standard
4-gang wallboxes; 3.5 inches deep, minimum.
• Make certain that power is turned off, and
ensure that there is at least 4.5 inches of open
space above and below the electrical box
location to permit heat dissipation. 2. Hold the rear of the CLS-C6M unit and remove
the front panel and cover assembly by carefully
pulling out and up from the bottom edge.

3. Remove the control panel overlay from the unit
(it lifts off – is held in place by small tabs) to
reveal the upper mounting screw holes.
6. If Cresnet cabling is part of the installation,
attach the supplied terminal block connector(s)
to the Cresnet cable(s) and plug into the
appropriate port(s) on the unit. Make certain that
there is a minimum 1/4-inch separation between
the Class 2 Cresnet wiring and the Class 1 AC
wiring.
4. Refer to the following diagram for connection of
the AC wiring. All wires to be inserted in the
screw terminals should be stripped 7/16-inch,
and screws should be tightened to between 8 and
10 in.-lbs. (0.90 Newton meters to 1.13 Newton
meters). The maximum wire size is 12 AWG. 7. Carefully tuck all wires into the wallbox and fasten the unit to the wallbox using the four
7/8-inch Phillips screws supplied.
5. Connect each load wire to the corresponding
LOAD terminals on the unit, connect the power
line hot wire from the circuit breaker to the HOT
terminal on the unit, connect all neutral wires to
the NEUTRAL terminal on the unit, and connect
all ground wires to the (ground) terminal on
the unit.
8. Reattach the control panel overlay to the front
panel by inserting the four tabs into the slots
provided, and install the hinged front cover
assembly by lining it up at the top and pressing
the bottom edge until it snaps into position.
Verify the basic installation and wiring connections as
follows:
Power up and Testing
The following illustration shows the front panel of the
unit and the controls used during installation. 1. Press the Lights button to enable manual light
control, and press the right side and the left side
of each of the function buttons to increase and
decrease the lighting level of those loads. Verify
that the intended loads and corresponding LED
bargraphs respond appropriately.
Front Panel Controls and Indicators
2. Press the OFF button to turn off all loads. The
loads will ramp down to off while the two-digit
display counts down to off (blank). Two seconds
after all lights have turned off, the unit’s master
air-gap relay opens making it safe to service the
lighting installations.
