Engraved button caps are included. Forward-phase dimming is suited for incandescent, halogen, and magnetic low-voltage (MLV) loads. The module integrates with the Cameo 2 system for Cresnet-based scene and lighting control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CM2-DIMEX adds forward-phase dimming capability to a Cameo 2 installation, extending the system to cover additional incandescent or halogen circuits within the same Cameo 2 multi-function wall station or standalone configuration. Forward-phase (leading-edge) dimming is the traditional TRIAC-based method that provides reliable performance with resistive and inductive load types including incandescent, tungsten halogen, and MLV transformer loads. Engraved button caps are pre-installed for immediate deployment after programming. As a Cameo 2 module, it connects via Cresnet to the Crestron processor for integration with scene control, scheduling, and full automation workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForward-phase (TRIAC) dimming for incandescent, halogen, and MLV loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExpansion module for Crestron Cameo 2 in-wall platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngraved button caps included for ready-to-deploy installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCresnet communication for Crestron processor integration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports scene control, scheduling, and automation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModular design for multi-function Cameo 2 wall station configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncandescent and halogen dimming expansion within Cameo 2 installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMLV track and accent lighting control in residential and commercial spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-function Cameo 2 wall stations combining dimming and other control functions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommercial and residential spaces with existing incandescent or halogen fixture infrastructure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Type: Forward-phase (TRIAC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommunication: Cresnet (via Cameo 2 system)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlatform: Crestron Cameo 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEngraving: Included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the difference between CM2-DIMEX and CM2-DIMUEX?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The CM2-DIMEX uses forward-phase (TRIAC) dimming, suited for incandescent, halogen, and MLV loads. The CM2-DIMUEX is a universal phase dimmer with auto load-type detection, supporting a wider range including ELV and dimmable LED.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Are the engraved caps pre-engraved from the factory?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, the engraved variant ships with factory-engraved button caps.
