Dimmer switch module

Part number: CACDSW

Overview

The CACDSW is a hard-wired LED dimmer module that interfaces with an existing wall switch, allowing compatible LED lighting circuits to be controlled from the wall switch or through the Nova user interface when paired with a Smart Hub (COCBH). Unlike the Dimmer module (CACD), the CACDSW is designed to work with the customer's existing wall switch rather than an iZone wireless switch.
