Rated for 120 VAC operation, it supports incandescent, halogen, and compatible LED loads using forward-phase (TRIAC\/leading-edge) dimming technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe HZ2-DIMEX-B provides local dimming control with integrated wireless communication via Crestron's infiNET EX mesh network. This eliminates the need to run dedicated control wiring back to a central processor for wireless deployments, making it appropriate for retrofit projects, architecturally sensitive buildings, and installations where running new low-voltage wiring is impractical. Forward-phase dimming is compatible with resistive loads (incandescent, halogen) and many forward-phase-compatible LED loads. The black finish and standard Crestron icon engraving make this a ready-to-deploy unit for commercial and residential applications where a dark finish is specified. The infiNET EX radio provides reliable two-way communication with the Crestron control system for status feedback and remote command execution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForward-phase (TRIAC\/leading-edge) dimming for incandescent, halogen, and compatible LED loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated infiNET EX two-way wireless communication — no dedicated control wiring required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e120 VAC rated in-wall dimmer in Horizon 2 form factor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack finish for contemporary and commercial interior environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard Crestron icon engraving — ready to deploy without custom order lead time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo-way communication provides real-time load status feedback to the control system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for retrofit and new construction in residential, hospitality, and commercial applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWireless lighting control retrofits in existing commercial and residential buildings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHospitality guest room dimming where running control wiring is not feasible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen-plan office lighting zones controlled via infiNET EX wireless network\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference rooms and meeting spaces with incandescent or halogen pendant fixtures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eResidential living and dining room dimming integrated into a Crestron wireless system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Family\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCrestron Horizon 2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIn-Wall Forward-Phase Dimmer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWireless Protocol\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003einfiNET EX\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120 VAC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimming Method\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eForward-phase (TRIAC\/leading-edge)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Loads\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncandescent, halogen, forward-phase compatible LED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEngraving\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard Icon Engraved\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eForm Factor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIn-wall, single-gang\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHZ2-DIMEX-B\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What types of LED drivers or bulbs are compatible with the HZ2-DIMEX forward-phase dimmer?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The HZ2-DIMEX is compatible with LED loads that support forward-phase (leading-edge\/TRIAC) dimming. Check the LED manufacturer's compatibility data before specifying. Not all LED drivers and bulbs are forward-phase compatible — for 0-10V LED drivers, use the HZ2-DIMLVEX instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does the infiNET EX radio require a separate access point or gateway?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. The infiNET EX network requires a compatible Crestron infiNET EX gateway or processor on the network. The HZ2-DIMEX communicates with the gateway via the infiNET EX mesh, which then interfaces with the Crestron control system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can I use the HZ2-DIMEX-B as a standalone dimmer without a Crestron control system?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The HZ2-DIMEX is designed for integration with a Crestron Horizon 2 system and infiNET EX network.
