COLOR CONVERSION PROCEDURE

The color of Cat. No. HCS1Ø can be changed to suit your interior design requirements. Simply obtain a color
conversion kit of the appropriate color from your Leviton distributor or use the one provided, and proceed as follows:

1. The switch plate has snaps on its sides. Place the tip of a small-bladed screwdriver under a snap and gently pry

off the switch plate (refer to Figure 1).

2. Take the new switch plate and position it properly to the strap. Notice that the switch plate has an A/C indicator light

at one end. The switch plate should be installed with the A/C indicator light positioned at the bottom. With the switch
plate properly positioned, gently press it into place until it seats properly with a click. The color conversion is
complete.

TO OPERATE

ON:

Tap the upper half of the rocker. The lights will turn ON.

OFF:

Tap the lower half of the rocker. The lights will turn OFF.

NOTE:
To alert you that there is power to the switch when the load is OFF, the AC Indicator Light remains ON. To alert you
that the load is ON, the AC Indicator Light remains OFF.

NOTE:If a power interruption should occur while the device is on, the light load will return to its ON state when
power is restored.

TESTING PROCEDURE

With Cat. No. HCS1Ø properly wired and powered-up, tap the switch plate several times to ensure that the switch is
turning its load ON and OFF in response to manual control. Leave the switch in the ON position. Next, use a
Cat. No. 6320, Leviton Table Top Controller, or any other controller, to check for proper switch operation as follows:

1. Transmit an OFF command to the switch. It should respond by turning its assigned Load OFF.

2. Transmit an ALL LIGHTS ON command to this switch from an appropriately coded controller. It should respond

by turning its assigned Load ON.

3. Transmit an ALL OFF command from an appropriately coded controller. It should respond by turning its assigned

Load OFF.

PERFECT PERFORMANCE CHECKLIST

If the Cat. No. HCS1Ø appears to be functioning improperly proceed with the following steps:

1. Confirm that the HCS1Ø is wired exactly as shown in the WIRING DIAGRAM.

2. Confirm that the switch is being supplied from a 120V, 60Hz AC source ONLY.

3. Confirm that the load being controlled is in proper working order. Local switch, ON (check for burned-out bulbs).

4. Confirm that the load being controlled does not exceed the 1200W switch limit.

5. Confirm that unit is programmed properly. Repeat program procedure from Step 6 under “TO INSTALL” section.

NOTE: If the module still does not operate properly after following steps 1-5, the fault may not lie with the
module. Proceed with steps 6 and 7.

6. Set the controller to transmit address P1. Using a Cat No. 6386 Signal Strength Indicator plugged in on the same

branch circuit as the controller, confirm that the controller is transmitting a minimum reading of 2 volts of
command signal at the HI-RANGE setting. If the signal strength is less than 2 volts, have the controller checked.

7. Check for adequate command signal at the Cat. No. HCS1Ø location as follows:

A. Plug the Cat. No. 6385 Signal Test Transmitter into a receptacle on the same circuit as the controller.

B. Using the Cat. No. 6386 Signal Strength Indicator at the HCS1Ø location, check the command signal

amplitude. Signal strength must be 100mV minimum. If there is less than 100mV of signal present, it may be
necessary to couple both legs of the 120/240 volt power service at the entrance panel using Cat. No. 6299
Signal Bridge.

C. If the Yellow ERROR CONDITION indicator is lit, there is electrical “noise” present on the AC line which is

interfering with proper module operation. The source of the noise must be identified and either filtered out or
eliminated (See Technical  Manual).
