InfiNET™ Lamp Dimmer Crestron CLF-DIMRFB Setup Identity Code The MNET ID of the CLF-DIMRFB has been factory set to 01. After an infiNET device is added to an infiNET network, its MNET ID must be changed to a value that can be addressed by the control system program (03 to 20). The MNET IDs of multiple CLF-DIMRFB devices in the same system must be unique. MNET IDs are changed from a personal computer (PC) via the Crestron Toolbox.

InfiNET™ Lamp Dimmer Crestron CLF-DIMRFB Operation The CLF-DIMRFB may be warm to the touch during operation. This is normal. Mode Selection Switch These dimmers use a three-position mode selection switch to set the mode of operation.

SET When the mode selection switch is in the “SET” position, it is operating in the SET mode. The LED will blink to indicate that the dimmer is in the SET mode.
InfiNET™ Lamp Dimmer Crestron CLF-DIMRFB Special Functions Enter ACQUIRE Mode Before an infiNET device can be used on an infiNET network, it must first be acquired by a C2N-MNETGW gateway that is connected to a Cresnet network. NOTE: A dimmer can be acquired by only one gateway. To acquire a CLF-DIMRFB by a C2N-MNETGW, perform the following: 1. Put the C2N-MNETGW in the ACQUIRE mode, from the unit itself or from Toolbox, as described in the latest revision of the C2N-MNETGW guide (Doc.
infiNET™ Lamp Dimmer Crestron CLF-DIMRFB To communicate with the control system program, an MNET ID value between 03 and 20 must be assigned to the dimmer. Refer to “Identity Code” on page 6. Release Gateway Connection In some cases, it might be desirable to release a dimmer from a gateway. If a dimmer is to be released from a gateway, the gateway information must be cleared from the dimmer’s memory. To clear a dimmer’s gateway information: 1. Move the mode selection switch to the “OFF” position. 2.
