Hi-Power Dimming Module System
Description
• Used to dim or switch heavily loaded
zones. Allows a wall dimmer or one
zone on a GRAFIK Eye 3000 Series
Control Unit to control loads of up to
30,000W/VA.
• Dims or switches most popular lighting
sources and load types.
• Available in one, two, and three-circuit
Dimming Modules. Up to five Modules
may be linked to obtain the necessary
load capacity.
• Accepts either 120V or 277V input
power. Not compatible with 220-240V,
230V, or 100V input power.
• Control using GRAFIK Eye 3000 Series
Control Units, Lutron Wallbox Controls,
Spacer System, or any incandescent
dimmer or Class 2 momentary contact
raise/lower control.
• Allows control of 277V loads using a
120V lighting control.

Dimensions
• Surface mount indoors.
• Dimming Module generates heat; mount
only where ambient temperature is 32-
104°F (0-40°C).
• Provide proper space for cooling or the
warranty will be void. Leave 6" (152mm) of
clearance in front of the Module. Do not
block the air channel between the back of
the Module and the wall. The space
between panels may be reduced to 4.5"
(114mm) when mounting several Modules
in a vertical layout.
• Mount Modules where audible noise is
acceptable. (Modules hum slightly and
relays click.)
• Mount Modules so line (mains) voltage
wiring is at least 6 feet (1.8m) from sound
or electronic equipment and wiring.
• Mount Modules within 7° of true vertical.

• Each load circuit on HP-4 and HP-6 Dimming Modules
can have different sources. Do not mix sources on the

Load circuit terminals have factory-installed bypass
jumper(s) between the H (Hot), SH (Switched Hot),
and DH (Dimmed Hot) terminals of each load circuit.
Do not remove jumpers until installation is complete
and load circuit is cleared of miswires/overloads.
Feed Wiring
• Pull dedicated feeds from distribution panel to Dimming
Module(s): one feed for HP-2, two feeds for HP-4, three
feeds for HP-6.
• Run separate neutrals for each feed - no common neutrals.

GRAFIK Eye Control Unit Wiring
Module-to-Module Wiring
• Pull three #12AWG (2.5mm
2
) wires between the Dimming
Modules to be used on a zone.
• Modules must be daisy-chained.
• Connect the GRAFIK Eye Control Unit to the first Dimming
Module used in the zone.
• Use two #12AWG (2.5mm
2
) wires to connect the Control Unit’s
feed to the Dimming Module’s control circuit. This allows
Dimming Modules to draw 40W/VA power for internal operations.
• Use one #12AWG (2.5mm
2
) wire to carry the zone’s dimmed (or
switched) hot signal from the Control Unit to the Dimming
Module. This allows the Control Unit to control the lighting loads.
• Make sure the power for the control circuit is 120V and on the
same phase as the GRAFIK Eye Control Unit.
• Make sure the Control Unit’s feed can support all the Dimming
Modules drawing off it. Each HP 2-4-6 Dimming Module draws
approximately 0.1A of current.
• Use a separate raceway. Do not mix control circuit wiring with
feed or load wiring.
