Vive In-Line Dimmers
The Vive in-line dimmers can control lighting both
locally and remotely when paired with Pico wireless
controls or Radio Powr Savr occupancy / vacancy
sensors. This provides a system that is convenient and
easy to install.
Vive in-line dimmers use Lutron robust Clear Connect
RF technology which provides reliable, wireless
communication with other Vive devices. Each load
control can be controlled individually using a Pico
wireless control. A Vive hub enables a simple setup
process using a standard web browser on any Wi-Fi
enabled phone, tablet, or computer. It also enables
control and monitoring of all Vive devices. The Vive hub
can be added at any time. System reprogramming will
be required. For a complete list of features supported
with the Vive hub, see specification submittals 369902,
3691044, and 3691044-04 at www.lutron.com
Features
The reverse-phase dimmer is trailing-edge capable of
1 W minimum load and up to 250 W of LED,
incandescent, halogen, or ELV loads.
Receives wireless inputs from up to 10 occupancy
sensors, 10 Pico wireless controls and 1 daylight
sensor.
To maximize energy savings and provide hands-free
operation, load controls can be turned on / off
automatically via Radio Powr Savr occupancy /
vacancy sensors.
Small size allows for simple retrofit installation.
Easily scalable into a smart system by adding a
Vive hub.
Configurable high-end and low-end trim when paired
with a Pico wireless control or Vive hub.

Power Failure
Power failure memory: Should power be
interrupted, the control will return to its previously
set level prior to the interruption when power
is restored
Mounting
Allow adequate space to ensure convective
cooling of load control. Remove any insulation,
heat generating equipment, or obstructions within
120mm (4.75in) of the load control
For optimal RF performance, no metal or other
electrically conductive material should be present
within 120 mm (4.75 in) around the top and sides
of the load control. The load control is not suitable
for installation in places where it is fully enclosed in
metal (e.g., metal enclosures, electrical cabinets) or
within metal ceilings
Metal Ceiling Tile Mounting
Metal ceiling tile grids must have a greater than
3 mm (0.12 in) gap of non-metallic material which
extends the entire length of the tile on at least one
edge. This is often achieved by foam spacers that
are used to prevent tile-to-tile rattling
Metal ceiling tile grids which are continuous (with
no gap) or those that are interlocked, must have
a total surface area that is less than 81 m
2
(266 ft
2
) for each section. The overall space can
be larger as long as there are non-metallic sections
bordering or intersecting the metal sections
