Essential Info

Wish you could adjust all the lights in your house from stark, full-brightness to a relaxing gentle glow, all with the press of a single light switch? It's now easier than ever with Decora® Home Control (DHC) Scene-Capable Receivers, the next generation of powerline home lighting control from Leviton. Designed to work with other Leviton powerline lighting control products, this new system allows you to customize up to 64 whole-house lighting scenes that reflect your favorite moods or activities. Whether it be a dimly-lit home theater setting, a cheery and bright scene suitable for reading, or any situation you can imagine, you'll have complete flexibility. And because this system uses the existing wiring that's already in your home, you won't be bogged down with the expense or hassle of running wires from one switch to another. Furthermore, the extended-data commands that these switches use make them compatible with a number of home automation controllers, including the Stargate, TimeCommander and HomeVision.

    Thanks to a new one-button programming feature, this sophisticated lighting control system is not only more powerful than previous incarnations, it's also easier to use. One-button programming allows you to assign addresses to switches electronically, instead of fussing with those hard-to-use address wheels. Plus, Leviton's exclusive Intellisenseā„¢ technology (gated automatic gain control) provides the utmost in reliability, even where electrical "noise" exists on the power line.

    Wall switch receivers provide manual and remote ON/OFF switching and full-range dimming for incandescent and magnetic low-voltage lighting loads. DHC Wall Switch Receivers are also available for manual and remote ON/OFF switching of fluorescent lighting. Plus, a new DHC Plug-In Lamp Receiver also offers ON/OFF switching and full-range dimming of freestanding incandescent lamps, allowing you to incorporate them into sophisticated lighting scenes. Please reference the chart below to decide which units are best suited for the lights you want to control.

    All Wall Switch Receivers feature a convenient locator light, making them easy to find in the dark. Provides two-way communication with Leviton status-tracking-capable controllers.

    Quality built in Leviton's own factory. Switches are UL-, CSA- and NOM-approved for use in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Trim plate not included.

    Reviews

    "This device is the best of the relay controllers, with two specific advantages: 1) You push the top to turn on and the bottom to turn off, even in a 3-way application. 2) It''s very quiet - just a little ping rather than the loud clack of other devices It has one minor complication - to program it, you must put it in learning mode by holding down a button on the device and sending it a code from a transmitter. It doesn''t use the selector wheels found on other units." - Jonathan - Palo Alto
    "Excellent" - CLAY - CALGARY, AB
    "Just what I wanted." - MIKE - SACRAMENTO, CA
