HZ2-AUX - Horizon® 2 In-Wall Multiway Remote

The HZ2-AUX is a Horizon® 2 in‑wall multiway remote that controls Horizon 2 dimmers and switches. Its design matches the entire line of Horizon 2 dimmers, switches, and keypads, making it a great addition to new or retrofit installations.

Note: The HZ2-AUX does not accept other button assembly styles and does not have an LED backlight. For multiway control using a device that accepts any style button assembly and has LED backlighting, use a HZ2‑KPCN or HZ2‑KPEX.

The HZ2-AUX is available with default engraving or custom engraving on a rocker button assembly (Style 6).

• Default engraving on a rocker button assembly (Style 6) is provided with the HZ2-AUX-A, HZ2-AUX-W, and HZ2-AUX-B. The default engraving includes a simple dot at the location where the button can be pressed.

• Custom engraving on a rocker button assembly (Style 6) provided with the HZ2-AUX-A ENGRAVED, HZ2-AUX-W ENGRAVED, and HZ2-AUX-B ENGRAVED. The custom engraved button assembly is installed prior to shipment and replaces the default button assembly with default engraving.

NOTE: Faceplates are not included. Refer to the HZ2‑FP‑G series faceplates for more information.

Button Engraving

Custom laser-etched engraving is used to identify the functionality of each button on the button assembly. When a custom engraved model is ordered, the engraved button assembly is installed on the device before it is shipped. Create engraving files using Impress, the Crestron Home Setup app, the Crestron Home Online Configurator, or D3Pro. If necessary, custom engraving can be changed up until the order is processed by emailing orders@crestron.com with the engraving file.

If the engraving or button assembly has not been finalized before an order is placed, default engravings can be replaced with custom engravings by sending an engraving file to orders@crestron.com before the order ships. If the updated engraving order maintains the same product types and quantities as the original order, it will be processed in the order that it was originally received.

To order replacement engravings, refer to the HZ2-BTNS ENGRAVED button assembly product page.

Button assemblies without engravings (BLANK models) are available separately and can be used as-is or custom engraved by a third-party engraver.

Note: Devices ordered with custom engraving (ENGRAVED models) are provided with the button assembly indicated on the engraving order. The button assembly is installed prior to shipment and replaces the default button assembly with default engraving.

Multiway Dimming and Switching

Similar to traditional three‑ or four‑way circuits, the HZ2-AUX lets you control the lights from multiple locations using the traveler wire. Up to four devices can be connected to a single dimmer or switch. The HZ2‑KPEX provides button backlights and six different engravable button assembly options while the HZ2-AUX provides no button backlight and a single large rocker button assembly (Style 6).The multiway controller provides instant usability upon installation without the need for programming.

Note: The HZ2-AUX cannot be used to control a load directly. It must be used in conjunction with a HZ2‑DIMEX, HZ2‑DIMUEX, and HZ2‑SWEX, (all sold separately).

Multigang Expansion

Install up to four Horizon® 2 devices side‑by‑side in a US multigang electrical box with a compatible HZ2‑FP‑G series faceplate. When multiple devices are installed in a 2-, 3-, or 4-gang faceplate, the buttons on the devices are aligned to form one continuous control surface.

Field-Replaceable Button Assemblies

The field-replaceable button assemblies allow for changes in device function or to allow the customer to use the system before finalizing the engravings. The button assembly can be replaced with a Style 6 HZ2-BTNS button assembly configuration and is available with custom engraving (ENGRAVED models) or no engraving (BLANK models).

The HZ2-AUX devices are available in the following styles:

HZ2-BTNS-6 (Style 6): 1 large rocker button

Standard Wall Mount

Horizon keypads are designed for installation in a standard electrical wall box, making them perfect for installation in a multi-gang box alongside other Horizon devices.
