Crestron HZ2-AUX-B – Horizon 2 In-Wall Multiway Remote, Standard Engraved, Black

Product Overview

The Crestron HZ2-AUX-B is a Horizon 2 series in-wall multiway remote control in black with standard engraving included. It is designed for multi-location dimming and switching control, allowing occupants at secondary locations in a room to control lighting without requiring a primary keypad at every position. It integrates with Crestron Horizon 2 in-wall control systems.

Product Description

Multi-location lighting control is a standard requirement in residential and commercial spaces where multiple doorways, switches, or control points need to operate the same lighting loads. The HZ2-AUX-B serves as an auxiliary (secondary) control point in a Horizon 2 multi-way lighting system, communicating with the primary control processor to provide raise/lower, on/off, and scene selection capability from any installed location. The black finish matches black Horizon 2 primary controls, maintaining visual consistency throughout an installation. Standard engraving is included, meaning the button labels are provided in a standard format—custom engraving is not required. This is a wired in-wall device that installs in a standard electrical box within the Horizon 2 system architecture.

Technical Specifications

FAQs

Q: What is the difference between the HZ2-AUX-B and a primary Horizon 2 keypad?
A: The HZ2-AUX-B is an auxiliary (secondary) multiway remote, intended for use at supplemental control locations. A primary Horizon 2 keypad provides the main control point and is programmed with the full range of scene and system functions. The auxiliary remote provides basic raise/lower and on/off control for multi-location configurations.

Q: Does the HZ2-AUX-B require a separate controller, or does it work standalone?
A: It requires integration with a Crestron Horizon 2 compatible control processor or lighting control system. It is not a standalone dimmer and must be wired and configured within the Horizon 2 ecosystem.

Q: Is a white version of this auxiliary remote available?
A: The HZ2-AUX-B is the black version. Crestron offers Horizon 2 auxiliary remotes in multiple finishes. Check the Horizon 2 product line at creationnetworks.net for available color options.
