The HZ‑AUX is a Horizon™ in‑wall multiway remote that controls Horizon‑style dimmers and switches. Its design matches the entire line of Horizon dimmers, switches, and keypads, making it a great addition to new or retrofit installations.
Multiway Dimming and Switching
Similar to traditional three‑ or four‑way circuits, the HZ‑AUX lets you control the lights from multiple locations using the traveler wire.1 Up to four devices can be connected to a single dimmer or switch. The multiway controller provides instant usability upon installation without the need for programming.
Multigang Expansion
Up to four devices may be installed side‑by‑side in a multigang electrical box with a compatible Horizon faceplate (HZ‑FP‑G series).2 All buttons in a multigang arrangement align to form one continuous control surface.
Field-Replaceable Button Caps
The preinstalled rocker button cap on the HZ‑AUX is field replaceable, allowing for rocker button caps with custom engravings.
Customizable Faceplates
Horizon compatible faceplates are customizable for any décor. Color‑matched top and bottom trim pieces may be swapped easily after installation with custom trim fabricated from solid materials such as wood, metal, marble, engineered stone, or Corian®. Contact a Crestron representative, or refer to Crestron True Blue Support Online Help Answer ID: 1000140, to obtain specifications and CADs for the fabrication of custom trim. Paintable trim is also available separately.
Note: The faceplate trim is attached magnetically, which may inhibit use in locations where tampering may occur.
