Dimmer Setup
The LEDsmart+rotary dimmer has a number of useful functions which can easily be set up by entering setup mode and following
four easy steps.
It is recommended that the MINIMUM BRIGHTNESS is always set up. The other settings are optional, depending on the
dimmer application. To set the minimum brightness now, go to the next page.

A: Entering Setup Mode
Before starting to setup the dimmer, the rotary dial should be removed by pulling it off the
shaft. This allows the white LED indicator to be easily seen during setup.
If the dimmer has been powered up for LESS THAN 15 MINUTES see A1.
If the dimmer has been powered up for MORE THAN 15 MINUTES see A2.
Once in Setup Mode, options are selected by a series of ‘clicks’ of the dimmer rotary
shaft. Each ‘click’ should be within 1 second of the previous click.

A1: Dimmer has been powered up via mains 240Vac for LESS THAN 15 MINUTES
Step 1
Press and hold the dimmer rotary shaft for 10 seconds
Note: Connected lights will dim up or down, this is normal
Step 2
The white LED Indicators will blink ON/OFF twice per second. This indicates that
the dimmer is now in Setup Mode
Note: If more than one LEDsmart+device is connected in parallel, all these
devices will now enter setup mode. The blink ON/OFF will also be see on all other
LEDsmart+devices connected in parallel
Step 3
The dimmer is ready for the settings to be adjusted as required. Go to the
relevant setup function instructions
A2: Dimmer has been powered up via mains 240Vac for MORE THAN 15 MINUTES
Step 1
Press and hold the dimmer rotary shaft for 30 seconds
Note: This resets the Setup Entry time back to 10 seconds (for the next 30 minutes)
Note: Connected lights will dim up or down, this is normal
Step 2
The white LED Indicators will blink ON/OFF twice per second. This indicates that the
dimmer is now in Setup Mode
Note: If more than one LEDsmart+device is connected in parallel (see pages 5-7), all
these devices will now enter setup mode. The blink ON/OFF will also be see on all
other LEDsmart+devices connected in parallel
Step 3
The dimmer is ready for the settings to be adjusted as required. Go to the relevant

B: Setting Minimum Brightness
The minimum brightness level provided by the dimmer can be set to suit specific lamps and/or customer
requirements.
For the majority of lamps a minimum level as low as 0% can be set if required. However, some lamps can become
unstable at low dimming levels, in particular CFL’s.
If lamps become unstable at low dimming levels, they typically flicker or pulse on/off. The dimmer allows the
minimum brightness to be set to a level above the point at which the lamp flickers/pulses.
Step 1
Enter into the dimmer Setup Mode - See PART A
Step 2
Click the dimmer rotary shaft twice
Step 3
LED will blink 2 times
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Note: If more than one dimmer is connected to the same load, all dimmers connected
to this load will now blink 2 times
Step 4
Adjust dial to required MINIMUM brightness level
Note: If more than one dimmer is connected in parallel (see pages 5-7), wait for 3
seconds for the other connected dimmer to learn the new minimum level
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Step 5
Click once to save & exit
Note: If more than one LEDsmart+device is connected in parallel, the minimum
brightness levels only needs to be set in one device. The setting is automatically saved
to all other devices connected in parallel

C: Setting Maximum Brightness
The maximum brightness level provided by the dimmer can be set to suit customer requirements.
Note that when lamps are dimmed near to full brightness, it is difficult to see changes in dimming level. Therefore,
when setting up maximum brightness, it is recommended that the lamp is slowly dimmed up to a point where no
further changes in brightness can be seen, and the maximum level set at this point.
Step 1
Enter into the dimmer Setup Mode - See PART A
Step 2
Click the dimmer rotary shaft three times
Step 3
LED will blink 3 times
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Note: If more than one dimmer is connected to the same load, all dimmers connected
to this load will now blink 3 times
Step 4
Adjust dial to required maximum brightness level
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Step 5
Click once to save & exit
Note: If more than one LEDsmart+device is connected in parallel, the minimum
brightness levels only needs to be set in one device. The setting is automatically saved
to all other devices connected in parallel

D: Setting the Kick Start Feature
The ‘kick-start’ feature is only required to be enabled when dimming loads such as compact fluorescent lamps. These
lamps require the dimmer output to be set to 50% for 0.2 of a second when the lamp is turned on. This ensures the
lamp strikes successfully. The result is a short bright ‘blink’ when a compact florescent lamp turns on.
As the bright blink caused by the kick start feature can be undesirable for the user, it is highly recommended that
this feature remains disabled (the default) when using LED’s and other light sources which do not require the kick-
start to operate.
By default Kick Start Mode is disabled. To enable Kick Start Mode, follow the steps below.
Step 1
Enter into the dimmer Setup Mode - See PART A
Step 2
Click the dimmer rotary shaft four times
Step 3
LED will blink 4 times
If Kick start is currently Disabled, lamp(s) connected to the dimmer will now turn OFF
If Kick start is currently Enabled, lamp(s) connected to the dimmer will now turn ON
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Note: If more than one dimmer is connected to the same load, all dimmers connected
to this load will now blink 4 times
Step 4
To Enable Kick Start Mode
Adjust the dial Clockwise until lamp(s) turn ON
To Disable Kick Start Mode (Default)
Adjust dial Anti-Clockwise until lamp(s) turn OFF
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Step 5
Click once to save & exit
Note: If more than one LEDsmart+device is connected in parallel, the minimum
brightness levels only needs to be set in one device. The setting is automatically saved
to all other devices connected in parallel

F: Setting Separate Switch Mode
The dimmer is designed to operate as a combined switch and dimmer, taking up only one gang in a wall plate.
However, some lamps (for example, non-dimmable CFL’s) can flicker when switched OFF by pressing the rotary dial.
In these cases it is recommended that the dimmer is used in ‘Separate Switch Mode’ and combined with a standard
mechanical switch. Note this also applies where two way switching operation is required.
When used in the Separate Switch Mode, the dimmer turn-on level needs to be set. This is covered in Step 4 below.
Step 1
Enter into the dimmer Setup Mode - See PART A
Step 2
Click the dimmer rotary shaft six times
Step 3
LED will blink 6 times
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Step 4
To Enable Separate Switch Mode
Adjust the dial Clockwise until the lamp(s) turn ON
Note the level the lamp(s) are adjusted to during this step will be the turn on level
when the separate switch is used during normal operation
To Disable Separate Switch Mode
Adjust the dial Anti-clockwise until the lamp(s) turn OFF (or pulses ON/OFF)
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Step 5
Click once to save & exit
Note for Separate Switch Mode
• Clicking the rotary dial will toggle between the minimum level and the previous level
• ‘Wake up’ mode cannot be used
• LED indicators are always off when the separate switch is off
• The dimmer does not recall the previously set dimming level when switched back on. It
turns back on to level set in step 4 above.
