Lutron Maestro Advanced Programming Introduction

Maestro Dimmer and Claro Faceplate in Goldstone (GS)

Maestro dimmers and timers contain an Advanced Programming Mode [APM] to allow the user to customize their control to meet their specific needs. On the Dual Dimmer and Dimmer/Timer, dimmers have their own settings independent of the other dimmer or timer. Note: Maestro Wireless does not contain Advanced Programming Mode

• Advanced Dimmer Features:

• Preset Options: Maestro dimmers provide two options for the preset light level on the dimmer: locked preset and unlocked preset. When programmed for a locked preset, the dimmer will turn on to the predetermined 'locked' level when the dimmer is turned on with a single tap of the tap button. When programmed for unlocked, the dimmer will turn on to the light level that it was adjusted to the previous time that the light was on.
• Fade-On Time: Maestro dimmers allow users to adjust how quickly the lights fade up when the dimmer is turned on. These options include fade times from off to maximum light output in as fast as 0.5 seconds and as slow as 5 seconds. Quicker fade times may be more practical and slower fade times more elegant.
• Fade-Off Time: Maestro dimmers allow users to adjust how quickly the lights fade down when the dimmer is turned off. These options include fade times from maximum light output to 'Off' as fast as 1.5 seconds and as slow as 15 seconds. Having the lights fade off slowly allows you to exit the room or cross to the bed while the lights are still on.

  Advanced Timer Features:

• Preset Options: Maestro timers provide two options for the preset time setting on the timer: locked preset and unlocked preset. When programmed for a locked preset, the timer will always return to the predetermined 'locked' timer setting anytime it turns off with either a single tap of the tap button or an expiration of the countdown. When programmed for an unlocked preset, the timer will return to the time setting it was adjusted to the previous time that the timer was on.
• Bypass Mode Options: Maestro timers provide an option to disable the 'On' setting, which causes the timer to time out in no more than 60 minutes regardless of how it is turned on.
