Read Before Beginning Installation

1. All MultiSet Pro devices require a neutral connection (no common neutrals). Each circuit feeding dimmers and dimmed loads requires a separate neutral. Shared neutrals will result in undesirable flashing of controlled loads.

2. Use Quiet Electronic (QE) dimmers to control only low-voltage fixtures that have electronic, solid-state transformers and regular incandescent loads.

3. Use HDF Direct drive dimmers to control fluorescent lighting loads at 120V with approved Philips HDF Electronic Ballasts only.

4. Use Electronic Ballast (EB) Direct Drive Dimmers to control Advance Mark X® Dimmable Electronic Ballast.5. Use Energy Savings Inc. (ESI) to control ESI DIM-E Electronic Ballast.6. 120 volt MultiSet Pro Strap Dimmers (MSP), Masters, Switches, and Remotes mount individually or ganged

together and are supplied without faceplates. They accept Philips Controls single and multi-gang Compli Faceplates or standard decorator-style faceplates by others. Faceplates are not provided.7. MultiSet Pro Heatsink (MHP) Dimmers, Masters, Switches, and Remotes incorporate low-profile heatsinks and

are supplied with coordinating, beveled-edge faceplates. They mount side-by-side with no fins broken and do not need to be derated. They cannot be ganged with Strap devices. When mounting devices with one or both fins removed, it is necessary to derate the maximum load of the devices, however, this is not recommended. Refer to derating chart on page 15.

8. MultiSet Pro Dimmers or Switches may be fed individually or in groups, regardless of phase.9. MultiSet Pro Masters draw approximately one watt and may be fed from any circuit. Multiple masters

may be inter-connected. The total number of dimmers and masters are not to exceed 30. An unlimited numberof channel remotes (MSCR) may be used.

10. Dimmers can be connected to DA or HDF interface and amplifiers. Please consult interface and amplifier instructions for wiring. Non-dim switches can be connected to MultiSet relay modules for 277V loads.

11. Line voltage must not be supplied by a GFI breaker.

Caution

Caution: Be sure that power to the load being controlled has been disconnected by removing fuse or turning

circuit breaker off. Installing MultiSet Pro dimmers or Masters with power on may expose you to dangerous

voltage and damage the device.

MultiSet Pro Dimmers can be programmed for 12 different fade rates. Dimmers can be programmed tohave a different fade rate on each scene.

The fade rate choices are:1.5 seconds 1 minute3 seconds 2 minutes4.5 seconds 5 minutes7.5 seconds 15 minutes15 seconds 30 minutes30 seconds 60 minutes

Global Fade Rate = One fade rate for all scenes.Each dimmer’s fade rate affects all scenes. Example:Dimmer #1 fade rate set 7.5 sec., dimmer #2 set to 15 sec., dimmer #3 set to 3 sec. When any scene is selected dimmers #1, 2, 3, will respond with 7.5, 15 and 3 seconds, respectively for ON, OFF, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K and L.

To change the Global Fade Rate that affects all scenes:1. Tap the OFF Button on the Master.2. Press and hold the SET button. After 3 seconds, either

a single green LED or a pair of green LEDs will indicate the current "global" fade rate. The bottom LED indicates the 1.5 second fade rate, the next LED up is 3 seconds, ...the top LED is 2 minutes. If the bottom two LEDs are on, it indicates the 5 minute fade rate, if the next two LEDs up are lit, it indicates 15 minutes, ... the top two LEDs indicate the 60 minute fade rate.

Note: When the two LEDs are on, they will not be at the same intensity.

3. While holding the Set button, tap the top of the rocker to sequence the LEDs through the various fade rates until the desired fade rate is selected.

4. Release the SET button.5. Repeat steps 2-4 for each device.

To change the fade rate that will affect only an individual scene:1. Tap a scene button on the Master to go to a scene.2. Press and hold the SET button.3. After 3 seconds, either a single green LED or a pair

of green LEDs will indicate the scene's fade rate.4. While holding the Set button, tap the top rocker until

the desired fade rate is reached.5 Release the SET button.6. Repeat above for each device.

IR Receiver Programming

Ellipse masters with IR receivers can be programmed to operate in one offour IR modes, plus OFF. This allows up to four Master Control Stations tobe installed in close proximity to each other, but each controlling separateMultiSet Pro systems. The Master Control Stations are factory–programmedto OFF. To change the programming, follow the instructions below:

1. On the master, press and hold buttons A and C simultaneously for 3 seconds.

2. The current room programmed will blink on the master A,B,C,D or OFF (factory default).

3. Press the room button that you want to program [RM 1(A), RM 2(B), RM 3(C) or RM 4(D),OFF]. The button pressed will begin blinking.

4. Press the ON button to save the selected room (or OFF) and exit the programming mode.

Controlling MSP5ES / MHP5ES from Remote Control Units

CLMIRT This remote control transmitter always operates in ROOM 1 mode. Therefore, the master must be inROOM 1 mode to receive commands from the remote control.

CLMIRTES This remote control transmitter can operate in all four ROOM modes. On the transmitter, you must first press a ROOM button to place the transmitter in that mode. (example: pressing ROOM 2 sets the transmitter in ROOM 2 mode). The transmitter will then control any Master Control Station programmed to receive that same rooms commands.
