controlled by each button to create your own custom scenes!
Important Note: If you are using compact florescent or florescent lighting, you should not attempt to

Phase Coupler: Your home should be no more than 2500 square feet and have only one breaker panel. A
phase coupler is required in some home installations. If you have tested the rockers for each dimmer, they
work, but the buttons do not turn on all three dimmers, the circuits in your home may be out of phase. All
homes have a 220V feed to the main panel box, where the 220V is separated into 110V in two phases, an A
and B. You will need to install a phase coupler, see http://simply-automated.com/products/sa_zpc.htm for
options.
