DESCRIPTION

Indicator Light
(Switch Only)

HomeWorks Wired Maestro Switches, used in both localized

and optimized lighting control designs, function much like
standard switches, and have an integral microprocessor,
allowing them to be incorporated into the whole-house lighting control system. Local Switches are useful in locations
where single circuits of lighting need to be switched.
HomeWorks Maestro Switches include a Front Accessible
Service Switch for safe lamp replacement. All HomeWorks
Maestro Switches can be installed in either single pole or 3way applications.
HomeWorks Maestro Switches may be used with
HomeWorks Maestro Remote Switches to provide control
from up to 9 additional locations.
