Cameo Dimmers and Switches
Cameo
®
dimmers and switches are designed to replace any
standard in-wall dimmer or switch. Although the following
devices are functional as a standalone dimmer or switch, they
deliver greatly enhanced functionality as part of a complete
Crestron control solution. When connected to a Crestron PAC2 or
PAC2M automation control system (or any other 2-Series control
system), extensive automation and control capability is enabled.
In addition to replacing standard dimmers and switches, Cameo
remote “slave” units replace traditional 3- or 4-way lighting
dimmers and switches. The slave units connect to the main
dimmer or switch through the 120 Volt traveler wire. Up to 10
slave units can be connected to a single Cameo dimmer or
switch.

Dimmer Derating
Dimmers generate heat during operation. When dimmers are placed in close proximity, such as in a wall-box, their ability to
dissipate heat is reduced. To increase lifetime and avoid overheating, the max load ratings are reduced accordingly. For each
dimmer there are three ratings: single, one side shared, and two sides shared. See the derating graphics below for examples.
