Programming Option 5: Nightlight Mode
What it Does
When the Maestro® Sensor Dimmer is turned OFF and the light goes out, the ILs remain ON in a dim glow state, known as
Nightlight mode. Disabling Nightlight mode is an energy-saving practice and also allows the dimmer to be compatible with
a broader range of CFLs and LEDs. Enabling Nightlight mode provides a soft glow for easy location of the dimmer in a dark
room.
Settings
Enable Nightlight Mode: ILs will glow when Maestro® Sensor Dimmer is OFF.
Disable Nightlight Mode: ILs will stay OFF when Nightlight Mode is OFF.
Default Setting

Nightlight Mode and return to the APM main menu.
Notes:
