The Simply Automated Pre-Configured Dimmer Starter Kit (DKIT-01) allows you to control the lighting in up to three separate rooms from one conveniently placed switch. With this easy-to-install system, you'll never have to enter a dark house again, and you can create custom lighting scenarios according to your mood or needs. And because it utilizes Universal Powerline Bus (UPB) technology that operates over your home's existing electrical system, the kit requires no rewiring or construction.

One-Touch Lighting Control for Safety and Convenience
Once you install the Simply Automated Pre-Configured Dimmer Starter Kit, with the push of a button you can turn on up to three of your home's lights at the levels of your choice.
The Dimmer Starter Kit is an excellent choice for anyone who wants the safety of a well-lit home. You can set up a control dimmer at your home's entryway, for instance, giving you the ability to turn on lights in up to three different rooms at once, so you never have to enter a dark home again. For added security you can also set the kit up to give you control of your outdoor lighting without having to step outside.
Expanded Applications with Optional Accessories
In addition to improving your home's safety, the Dimmer Starter Kit can be augmented with optional accessories that give you the ability to control the lighting throughout your home to suit your activities and moods.
By adding the optional three-piece Lamp Starter Kit (DKIT-02) to your system, you can place the tabletop controller by your bed and turn off lights anywhere in your house without getting up. Other optional accessories include standard dimmers (US1W9 or US1W10), deluxe four-button single rocker dimmers (US2W12 or US2W24), 4 or 8-button tabletop controllers (US2TP11, USQT22, US28OTP23), lamp modules (UML7 or UML8), appliance relay modules (UMA25 or UMA26) controlled receptacles (URD27 or URD28) and the scheduler-timer (UCS-01), which gives you the freedom to program on/off scheduling for each device.
You can add only one of each pre-configured model number to your system. This gives you the ability to use more than 20 devices at once for truly flexible lighting customization, making it easy to create different moods for entertaining, cooking, reading, and watching movies.
Simply Automated also offers custom faceplates in a wide array of colors to match your home's decor. (Sold separately.)
SimplySmart Technology Ensures a "1-2-3 Done!" Installation
The Dimmer Starter Kit relies on SimplySmartTM Technology that allows the devices in the kit to "talk" to one another without any special software or installation. Because the kit also relies on UPB technology, which sends and receives pulses over the preexisting electrical system in your home, you don't need to invest in expensive reconstruction or rewiring to control the lighting in your home.
Installation is as simple as "1-2-3 Done!" Simply install the deluxe dimmer in a place that's most convenient for you, and install the two dimmers in rooms of your choice, and you're done. The deluxe dimmer features four buttons that give you the option of turning on or off any of the lights independently of each other, or all at once.
