The only way I can figure out how is using the Essentials "Design" mode to add a dimmer, and then go to Activate. The problem is, I don't know what to select under "Device Type," and all the dimmers look the same with the face plates on. So I'll try to activate a dimmer, and it'll say, "Nope, sorry, that's NOT an MLV, it's actually an ELV! Try again!"
Is there a way for me to just press a dimmer and have Essentials say, "Okay, cool, your repeater knows what that is. It's an ELV dimmer. What room do you want to add it to?"
I've also been ignoring the Fixture Wattage and Fixture Quantity fields... not sure if that matters or not...
Thanks!
