Wired ivory gloss keypads connect to in-wall electrical or control wiring, such as a compatible dimmer, fan-speed controller, or centralized lighting bus, so installation typically requires access to the existing wiring and appropriate power. Wireless ivory gloss keypads use battery power and radio frequency communication, which allows placement without external power or communication wiring, but they must be paired with compatible wireless lighting or automation devices.

Ivory gloss keypads are available in fixed two-button and four-button layouts, auxiliary controls for three-way operation, and configurable designs with two to seven buttons using four button sizes and up to 37 layouts. Choose a fixed layout for common scene controls, an auxiliary layout when extending a compatible load control, or a configurable layout when you need to assign different buttons to lighting, music, shades, security, or other system functions.

Review whether the keypad is wired, auxiliary, line-powered, or wireless: wired versions may use a 48V bus, configurable versions may use line voltage or a 36VDC power supply and require a neutral wire, and auxiliary versions connect to a compatible dimmer or fan-speed controller through existing three-way wiring. Wireless scene keypads use a battery and do not require external power or communication wiring, while some installations also require a compatible faceplate sold separately.

Ivory gloss keypads can support connected functions throughout residential and commercial spaces, including entryways, kitchens, living areas, bedrooms, and other rooms. Depending on the system, they can provide access to lighting scenes, shade control, audio adjustments, security status, and other automation functions from a wall-mounted or portable control point.
