INTRODUCTION
The Clipsal Two Channel (SLC5102BCLEDL) and the Four
Channel (SLC5104BCL) Bus Coupler units are key input devices
that allow voltage free mechanical switches, such as reed, pressure,
micro or other switches, to be connected to the C-Bus Network.
They transmit messages to output devices to control load states and
provide all C-Bus switching commands, including: on, off, toggle,
timer and dimming functions, etc. The Bus Couplers are designed to
fit into typical wall boxes along with voltage free mechanical
switches.
The Two Channel (SLC5102BCLEDL) Bus Coupler units may be
wired to external LED to indicate the state of operation. The Four
Channel (SLC5104BCL) Bus Coupler has built-in LED indicators on
the front of the unit to indicate the state of operation.
The Learn Mode feature is also incorporated in these units, allowing
a quick and easy way to program mechanical switches, to achieve
various control functions such as: on/off, dimmer or timer.
A spring return type switch, such as a momentary contact switch, is
recommended for dimming operations.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This section contains important safety precautions that must be
followed before attempting to install or maintain electrical
equipment. Carefully read and follow the safety precautions below.

Megger Testing
Do not Megger test C-Bus data cabling or terminals. Megger
testing of data cabling or terminals can degrade the performance of
the C-Bus network.

INSTALLATION
Follow the procedures in this section to properly install Two Channel
and Four Channel Bus Couplers. Before installing the Bus Couplers,
verify that wall boxes will accommodate both the switches and the
Bus Couplers.
Network Considerations
The Bus Couplers draw 18 mA from the C-Bus network. Verify that
an adequate number of C-Bus Power Supply Units are installed on
the C-Bus Network to support the connected devices.
Configuration Options
The installer can program the unit in two ways:

63249-420-236A2

Properly record the physical location of each unit using the liftand-peel label provided on the box and a site plan or location
log.
63249-420-236A2
11/2008
The box label also has a bar code that can be read by an infrared
scanner and used for a record of a specific units location. A liftand-peel section of the box label duplicates the box labels
information (see Box Label with Lift-and-Peel Section diagram).
To record the location of a unit, remove the lift-and-peel section
from the box label and attach it to a site plan or other document.
The lift-and-peel section now provides a record of the physical
location where that unit is installed. When installing multiple units of
one kind in an area or enclosure, such as six four-channel DIN
dimmers in an enclosure, verify that the document or site plan
indicates the relative position of each specific unit.
Connecting Bus Couplers to the C-Bus Network
Installation requires connection to the unshielded twisted pair C-Bus
Network cable. Use a Category 5 data cable. Use the insulated
bootlace terminals provided. Tighten the C-Bus Network terminal
screws securely. The recommended torque for tightening terminal
screws is 12 lb-inch (1.4 Nm). Do not exceed this torque.
NOTE: The C-Bus network connection is polarity sensitive. The
polarity is clearly marked on the front of the unit
One loop-in removable terminal block is provided for easy wiring
installation and maintenance.

The two and four channel inputs of the Bus Couplers are not
isolated from the C-Bus network. Verify that all cables connected
to the C-Bus network are well separated from the external
electrical power source.
