Wallbox Input Closure Interface Programming Guide
Overview
The Lutron QSE-CI-WCI (WCI) is designed to accept up to eight contact closure inputs, which can be either maintained or momentary signals. This guide focuses on its use in QS standalone applications, where inputs are programmed directly on the unit using the program button, DIP switches, and LEDs.
Key features include:
- A program button for easy programming and resetting to factory default.
- DIP switches for selecting input control options.
- LEDs that provide instant feedback during setup and diagnostics, indicating:
- Confirmation during Programming mode.
- Verification of asserted contacts.
- Indication of communication miswire or malfunction.
The WCI unit features a central label with 'LUTRON QSE-CI-WCI' and 'INPUTS ENTRADA ENTRÉES COM'. Above this label are 8 DIP switches (labeled 1-8), and below are 8 contact closure input terminals (labeled 1-8). A 'Program Button' is also visible. The device has mounting points. A set of 8 LEDs (labeled 1-8) are also part of the interface.
A table associates colors with each Contact Closure Input (CCI): CCI 1 (Red), CCI 2 (Orange), CCI 3 (Yellow), CCI 4 (Green), CCI 5 (Blue), CCI 6 (Violet), CCI 7 (Gray), CCI 8 (White).
? Note: The WCI is designed to work with a contact closure keypad, which is provided by the customer and not included with the WCI.
Select Settings
The default settings of the WCI are for momentary inputs and raise/lower inputs on a contact closure keypad. These settings can be changed using the DIP switches on the WCI to match your specific application.
First, select the input type (Momentary or Maintained) using DIP Switch 2. Then, select the control function (Raise/Lower or No Raise/Lower) using DIP Switch 1. When DIP Switch 1 is ON, CCIs 7 (Gray) and 8 (White) function as Lower and Raise, respectively.
DIP Switch Functionality:
- DIP Switch 1:
- ON: Raise/Lower (Default)
- OFF: No Raise/Lower
- DIP Switch 2:
- ON: Momentary (Default)
- OFF: Maintained
When DIP Switch 2 is set to ON (Momentary), all CCIs will operate as momentary. When DIP Switch 2 is set to OFF (Maintained), all CCIs will operate as maintained.
Diagram illustrates DIP Switch settings. DIP Switch 1 controls Raise/Lower (ON) or No Raise/Lower (OFF). DIP Switch 2 controls input type: Momentary (ON, default) or Maintained (OFF).
Enter Programming Mode
To assign QS devices or output devices to the WCI, you must first enter Programming mode. This is done by pressing and holding the Program button for 3 seconds.
The current functionality of the WCI can be determined by observing the LEDs. By default, the WCI displays a waterfall pattern where LEDs 1 through 6 scroll from left to right.
- Scene or Scene + Off: The waterfall pattern is displayed. Scene + Off functionality is the factory default.
- Zone or Shade Toggle: A single LED on the WCI will blink, corresponding to the last-pressed button on the contact closure keypad. LED 1 is the default when Programming mode is entered.
- Shade: LED 1 and LED 6 blink. All assigned shades will close, and all unassigned shades will open.
? When 'No Raise/Lower' is selected, LEDs 1 through 8 will be active in the waterfall pattern. For 'Shade' functionality, LED 1 and LED 8 will blink.
? The unit will return to normal operation automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity.
Flowchart illustrates the programming progression: From 'Normal Mode', press and hold the Program button for 3 seconds to enter 'Programming Mode' (for assigning devices). From 'Programming Mode', press and hold the Program button for 10 seconds to enter 'Advanced Programming Mode' (for changing functionality). The reverse path is also shown.
Programming Mode
Change Functionality
Changes to the WCI's functionality can be made using the Advanced Programming mode on the WCI unit itself, via a GRAFIK Eye® QS control unit, or through the Energi Savr Node™ app. If no functionality change is needed, proceed to the Programming Assignments section.
? The WCI cannot be used as a Partition controller.
WCI Advanced Programming Mode
To enter Advanced Programming mode, press and hold the program button for a full 10 seconds. The LEDs will turn off before the 10 seconds are up, but continue holding.
Once in Advanced Programming mode, all LEDs will blink once. Each press of the Program button cycles through the following functionality options:
- LED 1: Scene + Off
- LED 2: Scene
- LED 3: Zone
- LED 4: Shade
- LED 5: Shade Toggle
After selecting the desired functionality, press and hold the Program button for 10 seconds to return to Programming mode. The LEDs will then reflect the newly selected functionality (refer to the 'Enter Programming Mode' section for LED indicators).
GRAFIK Eye® QS Control Unit
To change functionality using a GRAFIK Eye® QS control unit:
- Enter Programming mode on the WCI as previously described.
- On the GRAFIK Eye® QS control unit, the screen will display "Keypad Change Type?". Press OK to enter the menu.
- Use the Raise/Lower buttons on the GRAFIK Eye® QS control unit to navigate the menu and select the desired option (e.g., Shade, Scene). Press OK to confirm the selection. Additional options may be displayed depending on the chosen functionality.
Energi Savr Node™ App
To change functionality using the Energi Savr Node™ app:
- Navigate to the System Setup screen within the app and select "Program QS Devices".
- Press and hold the Program button on the WCI for 3 seconds to enter the WCI into Programming mode.
- The app will display "Wall Controls". Select "Change Control Type".
- Choose the desired functionality for the WCI.

Key:
DIP Switch 1 & 2: ↑ indicates DIP Switch UP (ON), → indicates DIP Switch DOWN (OFF).
Functionality Key:
- Raise/Lower: Controlled by DIP Switch 1.
- Momentary/Maintained: Controlled by DIP Switch 2.
Notes on Shade Functionality:
1 For Shade functionality with maintained inputs: Asserting the CCI sends a command as described; unasserting the same CCI sends a 'stop' command to the assigned shades.
2 For Shade functionality with momentary inputs: If any assigned shade is moving when an input is asserted, all assigned shades will be commanded to stop ('stop-if-moving').
3 For Shade Toggle with maintained inputs: Each time the third-party switch is in the ON position, it cycles between Open and Close; the OFF position results in Stop.
4 For Shade Toggle with momentary inputs: Each press of the third-party button cycles through commands: Open, Stop, Close, Stop.
