OVERVIEW
nLight AIR rPP/rPP20 is a device that provides on/off switching and dimming for light fixtures. It is suitable for control of commercial and industrial light fixtures in
indoor environments. When installed as part of an nLight AIR lighting control system, the rPP/rPP20 will respond to wireless commands from other devices, to be
programmed during startup.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
REQUIRED TOOLS & SUPPLIES
• Electical Pliers
• Screwdriver
• Wire nuts
• Electrical box
• 2mm Precision Slotted Screwdriver, used for 24V terminals only

INSTALLATION STEPS
1. Turn power off at circuit breaker.
2. Install electrical box in accordance with state, local and national electrical
codes and requirements.
3. Remove knock-out from side of electrical box.
4. Remove retaining nut and washer from power pack mounting nipple.
NOTE: Standard device includes a wireless antenna internal to the device. This
restricts it from being installed inside a metal enclosure. For metal enclosure
applications, use the CP (Chicago Plenum) model with an external antenna.
5. Feed Class 1* wires and mounting nipple through knockout hole.
6. Install washer and thread retaining nut onto nipple, and hand-tighten to wall
of electrical box, then apply additional quarter-turn tightening with pliers. Chicago Plenum Device
7. Using wire nuts, connect line and low voltage wires as shown in the applicable
wiring diagram in accordance to state, local and national codes and require-
ments.
8. “24V” models only: Connect +/- DC power leads from nLight AIR sensor(s) to
24VDC terminal block on side of rPP enclosure, if needed. See diagrams below
for additional details.
9. For Chicago Plenum models only: Connect the antenna with the gasket to the
inside of the sealed box, with the retaining nut on the outside of the box, as
illustrated.
10. Install electical box cover plate before restoring power. *DS option provides Class 2 low voltage dimming wires
on side of enclosure opposite from chase nipple.
INITIAL OPERATION *For Chicago Plenum option, see step 9 .

Following power up, the relay shall close to energize the load. The dimming output shall be at 100% light output. The device shall remain in this state until programmed
with Clairity Pro mobile application. See Clairity Pro User Guide for additional programming information.

For Emergency Variant ER

The RPP/RPP20 ER version is a UL924 listed device that is powered on the Emergency circuit and provides full light output (at user-defined high-trim level) in absense of
AC voltage on Normal Power sense leads. Normal operation of the control device is restored when AC line voltage is restored to the normal power sensing leads.

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Device cannot be viewed in Clairity Pro
1. Press user button for specified time to reset the device to place the device in Maintenance Mode
2. Once the user-button LED confirms that the RP20 is in Maintenance Mode, open the Clairity Pro application and search for the device in Clairity Pro.
