Thanks Ranger. I did not realize the Auxiliary switches could also do dimming. Somehow, I thought they only did on/off.

Can more than one ALC dimmer be placed in a circuit to control a single light? If so, how is that connected? Does the ALC dimmer switch need 120V to “think"? In other words, how is the smarts powered? I would think the controller would have to be running for this. Thanks.

Just to put some meat on rocco's long hall scenario, I believe this would work. rocco? number20? The unused HV wires should be terminated in some way - perhaps with a small wire nut. This would be especially true in boxes that still have live HV. For example, the “light in middle” ALC...

I’m using a new PDF rendering method – better quality, much smaller file size – so now I can upload the grounded versions of ALC n-way switch vs. conventional HV n-way switch. Please note, that I am assuming the HV wiring is panel to switch to switch to light. There at least 4 or 5 other ways...

I’m in the design phase of a new home and I’m pretty sure I want to use the OnQ ALC with an ELK-M1. One of the reasons for the ALC choice is to be able to dumb-down later if needed. So, I will be wiring HV in the conventional way and ‘converting’ to ALC. Just to be clear about the before and...
