Panels are available fully populated with a single relay type or with SP option (Space Only) to allow for eld installation of
individual relays. This is the methodology to provide for panels with a mix of more than one type of relay. Relays can be
ordered separately as follows:
Enclosure Mounting
Typically the CX Panel is installed near the circuit breaker panel or in the ceiling of the room containing the lighting circuits
to be controlled. Select an appropriate location that meets the environmental conditions listed in the specication section of
this document. The panel interior is divided into high voltage and low voltage areas as shown in Figures 1(a) (b). Select an
appropriate location for incoming line voltage panel power, branch circuits to be controlled and low voltage input wiring. The
housing is supplied with conduit knock-outs labeled to indicate line or low voltage wiring use. All terminations within the panel
enclosure require installation by a licensed electrician in accordance with national and/or local Electrical Codes.
Figure 1(a) – CX4 or 8 Panel Interior

Installing Individual Relay Cards
CX RELAY PANELS ARE MOST COMMONLY SHIPPED WITH ALL RELAY CARDS INSTALLED. If the project requires different
types of relays installed in the same panel then the relays are supplied separately and they will require eld installation. In this
application, reference the applicable Relay Installation Instruction supplied with the individual Relay Cards on how to install relays.
Caution: ALWAYS remove supply power to the Panel control Transformer prior to making any connections between relay
boards and panel processor board. Failure to do so may result in personnel injury, damage to the panel, and void its
warranty.
Connecting Panel Power
The panel is designed to operate on 120, 208, 240, or 277VAC for input voltage “2” designator or 120, 277, or 347VAC for input
voltage “3” designator. Panel input power is supplied to the multi-tap transformer located in the upper center of the panel as shown
in Figures 1(a) (b).
To connect the panel power, do the following:
1. With the power turned off, route the dedicated panel power supply leads to the transformer and connect them to the
appropriate system voltage specic leads of the transformer. A voltage lead color label is located on or adjacent to the
transformer.
2. Connect the power supply ground lead to the panel chassis grounding lug. A label indicating this ground lug is located
adjacent to the connection location.
Caution: When power is applied to the transformer, the unused transformer leads become electried. Cap unused
transformer leads with wire nuts to prevent electrical shorting.
Connecting Lighting Loads
To connect the lighting loads, do the following:
1. With the power turned off, route the lighting system line and load leads through the high voltage area of the panel shown in
Figure 1(a) (b).
2. Connect line and load leads for each lighting load to the output terminals of the appropriate relay as delineated in the
project plans and/or Panel Load Schedule. Space is provided for the circuit identication number to be written adjacent to
the terminals on each relay card.
Notice: If relays are not already installed, reference the applicable Relay Installation Instruction supplied with the
individual Relay Cards on how to install relays.
Caution: Prior to making any connections to the relay outputs, verify that none of the loads are shorted. Failure to do so
may result in personnel injury, damage to the panel, and void its warranty.
Notice: If no Panel Load Schedule exists, use the Panel Load Schedule Form supplied in the clear plastic pocket inside
the Panel Door to record the lighting circuit relay assignments while connecting the relays.
Connecting Low Voltage Inputs
To connect the low voltage inputs, do the following:
1. Bring the low voltage wiring for the contact inputs in through the knockouts in the low voltage wiring area where indicated
in Figure 1(a) (b). The CX04 Relay Panel supports 6 inputs, the CX08 Relay Panel supports 12 inputs, the CX16 Relay
Panel supports 20 inputs and the CX24 Relay Panel supports 30 inputs. Inputs are software congurable through
programming to support momentary switches, maintained switches (latching), motion sensors, or photocells. Each
Relay Card includes one low voltage input. By default, low voltage inputs located on an individual relay card are set to
be controlled by a momentary switch station associated to that specic relay. The quantity of Auxiliary Inputs available is
Dependant of the mother board(s) utilized. 2 Auxiliary Inputs for the CX04 Relay Panel, 4 Auxiliary Inputs for the CX08
Relay Panel, 2 Auxiliary Inputs for the CX16 and 3 Auxiliary Inputs for the CX24. These inputs may be connected prior to
programming. Input devices may be connected to any terminal location regardless of nal control programming.
2. Connect contact closure input devices to the input terminals using 18 AWG wire.

Notice: Use the Panel Load Schedule Form supplied in the clear plastic pocket inside the Panel Door to record the low
voltage input types while making connections.
Low Voltage Control Diagrams shown in Figure 3 below are for use with Hubbell Building Automation Input Devices ONLY.
Diagrams may not apply to input devices from other manufacturers.
Figure 3 - Low Voltage Input Wiring Diagrams
Operating the panel
To operate the panel, do the following:
1. Connect the User Interface control ribbon cable to the User Interface Ribbon Cable Connector on the Mother Board
where shown in Figure 4. The User Interface control ribbon cable is supplied connected to the User Interface Module that
is attached to the panel door.
2. Connect the green ground jumper to the panel housing ground lug, labeled “GND” with the hardware provided. The green
ground jumper is supplied attached to the panel door.
3. Provide control power to the panel and restore power to the lighting circuits at the source circuit breakers. The panel will
take a few moments to initialize during which time the User Interface screen on the front of the panel door will initiate and
display the clock, date, and time zone un-programmed factory defaults. Inside the panel the Mother board power status
LED will show continuous “green”. The Relay board status LED will turn on “green” for approximately 2 seconds and then
go off.
4. Push, but do not hold the Relay Manual Control button on each relay card to operate each relay to test functionality. The
Relay State Status LED will turn on “red” when the relay is energized and be off when the relay is un-energized. The
panel is now fully functional and ready to control the lighting loads.

Blink Alert
The Blink Alert function allows the user to dene a warning period of up to 15 minutes prior to a schedule OFF event. Occupants
are alerted to the impending OFF event by 2 blinks of the lights. The user can issue a manual override command to extend the
schedule OFF event by 1-120 minutes by activating a switch that is mapped to the same relay or group associated to the schedule
OFF event. The manual override must be initiated during the warning period. The user may also manually turn OFF the lights after
the Override was initiated by activating the switch again, thus canceling any pending new blink warn and extended Schedule OFF
event.
Important Functionality NOTES:
The Override Switch and the Schedule OFF event MUST be mapped exactly to the same
Relay or Group for the Extension of the impending OFF to occur.
The switch MUST be activated during the Warning Period
The Switch MUST be set as an ON/OFF Toggle
The Relay must be dened as a Blink Relay in the Relay Function Section. System
Settings>Relay Functions
• From the Main Menu, select System Settings > Blink Alert. Then press ENTER.
• Set the Warning period from 1-15 minutes. The schedule OFF event occurs at the end of the Warning period.
• Set the Override time from 1-120 minutes. This extends the scheduled OFF event by the Override time.
• When nished scroll down to highlight SAVE. Press ENTER to save your changes.
If the lights are still ON at the end of the Override time the system will initiate another warning blink and allow another Override to
occur. This Override process will repeat until the ON event of the schedule occurs. The ON event will cancel any impending OFF
initiated by the override switch. If a Timer Switch is used during an Off Sweep/Schedule blink alert, the Timer Switch will be ignored
and the load will turn off according to the Schedule. The Blink Override will only work with a Momentary Toggle Switch Input to
extend the time. Blink Alerts only work with Schedules.
CX Programming TIP:
The Start Time: <Clock> selection will perform sweeps at the selected time 365 days per year. To execute After-Hours Sweeps on selected Days,
use the Close Time function. Since Open/Close Times can be developed based on all of the CX Panel Schedules functionality, then Close Time can
be any or all days of the week.
Blink Alert Settings
CX Programming TIP:
Additional OFF Only Schedules can be added and mapped to the same relay or group to “Re-Start” the After-hours Override functionality where
users may return after all other occupants have left and an impending OFF has already occurred
If the Override time elapses without the switch being activated the impending schedule OFF will be executed. The override switch
will then behave as a normal ON/OFF toggle.
Power-On Settings
Power ON Settings dene the state of each relay at restoration of power following an outage. The relays can be assigned a state
of OFF, Last, or ON. The Last setting returns the relay to the state in which it was in prior to the outage. Relays will be changed to
ON or OFF when power is returned when these settings are chosen. Additionally, for relays set as Last and controlled by ON/OFF
schedules, the CX Panel will check the current time and apply the ON or OFF state based on
the programmed the schedule.
• From the Main Menu, select System Settings > Power-on Settings. Then press
ENTER.
• Use the arrow keys to scroll to a relay, and then use the Function keys to set any
relay to either OFF, ON or Last. Note the icons, which represent the 3 states.
• When nished scroll down to highlight SAVE. Press ENTER to save your changes.
NOTE: Relays initiate Power-on State when power returns, NOT when power is lost. Power-on Settings

Scenarios
The Scenarios programming feature allows a user to select from a list of pre-established control schemes to more easily assign
schedules, relays and inputs for the desired actions. The use of Scenarios will shorten programming time by only requiring specic
values unique to the Scenario selected. When selecting the Scenario desired, Priorities will automatically be assigned based on
the selected behavior. Dimming is currently not included in the scenarios section.
Notes:
If the control of a Group, (collection of relays) is desired with the scenario, then the Group can be created before starting the
Scenarios process or during the denition of the Relay/Group during the scenarios process. The Scenarios control schemes are
merely prompts, they are not saved in the Scenarios section. If a user wants to “see” what was done or change the programming
established in the scenario, the user must make those changes in the appropriate programming menu section.
An example of these automatic assignments would be a motion sensor required for the scenario. The only selection needed is to
choose which input has the motion sensor connected and what it is controlling, whether a Relay or a Group. During the Scenario
process the input selection for the input (sensor, photocell or switch) would be made automatically.
The use of Scenarios is especially benecial when selecting control schemes that require the setting of different priorities in order
to create a sequence of operation. The priority selections are made automatically and have been tested for appropriate operation
to assure proper function.
The Scenarios menu is divided into two categories – Indoor and Outdoor. Once a selection of categories is made, a number of
possible scenarios is presented that are most often used for typical project control needs. By highlighting the scenario and pressing
the HELP button a short synopsis will appear on the screen of the selected scenario. By selecting the scenario appropriate to the
application the Scenario process will begin. Note that scenaris are optional. All functionality achieved through the use of scenarios
can be implemented using descrete menu selections.
Following are all the scenarios available at this time and a short synopsis of the functionality available. Following this list are a
couple of programming examples.
