GLPX Panels
Crestron GLPX panels are configurable for dimming or switching and come
equipped with Green Light Express modules.
When specifying and ordering a GLPX panel, construct a model name as
shown to the right. Possible choices are listed underneath each blue box.
The numbered steps below describe each choice in detail.
Examples: GLPX-HSW-16
GLPX-HDSW-56

Depth 4 3/8 in (11.08 cm) 4 7/16 in (11.23 cm) 4 7/16 in (11.23 cm)
Note: If using 3-wire fluorescent dimming with the 2DIM8, the actual number of loads will be half the specified amount. For
example, a panel specified for 16 2DIM8 loads can control up to eight 3-wire ballasts.
What is Arcless Switching?
Crestron offers two switching relay types: high-inrush and arcless high-inrush. Arcless high-inrush relays use a TRIAC to handle the
current turn on. Within milliseconds, the continuous load is transferred from the TRIAC to a robust 50A mechanically-latching relay.
All switching occurs at the zero-cross point of the AC waveform under microprocessor control. This is a complete solution
eliminating arcing at the physical relay contacts during turn on and turn off. By eliminating arcing, the relay lifetime is increased
substantially.
