GRX-LC8 CONTROLLER
Installation and Setup Instructions Please Read
DESCRIPTION
The GRX-LC8 controller works with a GRX-CES series daylight sensor to allow for changes to be made to a Lutron
lighting system through a contact closure. It is a single channel lighting controller that features an adjustable ON
setpoint as well as an adjustable OFF setpoint. The controller features a signal deadband and time delay to ensure
lighting stability. The controller is powered by a PP series power pack.
INSTALLATION
Mount the controller using the adhesive strips provided. Choose a location where the PP series power pack can be
provided with power.

Notes
• When interfacing to a Lutron system, the
N.C. contact will turn lights on (contact
closure close) when daylight levels are
low, and turn lights off (contact closure
open) when daylight levels are high.
• When the Off or On LED is lit, the light
level is above the setting of its respective
knob.
CALIBRATION
Each GRX-CES sensor is calibrated during manufacturing to the light levels in its intended environment (indoor,
outdoor, etc.). Below is a chart of the settings for each model. The first column corresponds to the settings on the
adjustment knobs in the GRX-LC8 controller.

CALIBRATION (CONTINUED)
Using the chart on the previous page, set the On adjustment knob: This is the low light level that will trigger your
lights to go on. Set the Off adjustment knob: This is the high light level that will trigger your lights to turn off. For
proper operation, set the On knob at least 10% (1 tick mark on the knob) lower than the Off knob to create the
dead band.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If your system is not functioning, check for the following problems:
• Check the controller power: On the GRX-LC8 controller, you should be able to measure 24 V between terminals
4 and 5.
• Check the sensor power: Connect a voltmeter between its yellow and black wires. When the sensor is covered, it
should produce 0 V , and when it is in bright light, it should produce 10 V . If this is not the case, replace the
sensor.
• Check the controller function: The input delay switch should be off (up). With no sensor connected, all three LEDs
should be lit; when you short terminals 1 and 2 together, the LEDs should turn off. If this is not the case, replace
the controller.
• Check the controller settings: On the GRX-LC8 controller, the adjustment knob settings may be faulty. Follow the
above calibration instructions to reset.
