Note: values for output current and nominal power
have to be intended as maximum values, depen-
ding on the ventilation conditions. The reported va-
lues are measured with a room temperature of 40
°C. For electronic loads and/or LEDs whose PFC or
harmonic distortion is not known, consider the maxi-
mum power halved compared to the nominal value.

REFLEKGD2TP1HV
KNX bus device with single channel phase-cut dimmer
function for lighting loads, with power supply voltage 90
- 230 Vac at 50/60 Hz. Use in KNX standard home and
building automation systems.
Description
The ekinex KNX phase-cut single channel dimmer powe-
red at 90-230 Vac EK-GD2-TP-1-HV allows the bright-
ness control of luminous loads with supply voltage 90 -
230 Vac at 50/60 Hz. The device has a maximum output
power of 230 W. The loads that can be used with the dim-
mer can be: incandescent lamps, mains voltage halogen
lamps, dimmable mains voltage LED lamps, dimmable
mains voltage LED strips, switching power supplies for
dimmable phase cut LEDs. The dimmer cuts the phase in
Trailing Edge mode (on the falling edge). The device has
an integrated KNX certied bus communication module
with SELV 30 Vdc voltage.

When assembling, make sure to leave only the front pa-
nel accessible; all other sides must not be accessible. For
the mounting proceed as follows:
• Insert the mounting support in the appropriate shaped
prole of the back side of the device
• then hook the teeth to the prole guide starting from
the bottom
• nally, push the upper part towards the guide for nal
coupling.
Before removing the device, be sure that inputs, outputs,
and the input power supply have been disconnected. Use
a screwdriver to slide down the locking device and remo-
ve the device from the rail.
Note. When mounting the device in boards and ca-
binets it shall be provided the necessary ventilation
so that the temperature can be kept within the ope-
rating range of the device.
i
Control, signaling and connection elements
The device is equipped with a screw terminal for connec-
ting the 90 - 230 Vac output loads (1), the 90 - 230 Vac
input power supply (2), a screw terminal for connecting
the KNX bus line (4) and a KNX programming / test but-
ton with a LED under the cover (5) . The pair of terminals

INSTALLATION TECHNICAL NOTES
• Installation and maintenance must be
performed only if the power supply has
been turned o󰀨.
• Installation and maintenance must only
be performed by qualied personnel in
compliance with current regulations.
• The product must be installed inside
a wall mounting box or an electrical pa-
nel, where it is recommended to install a
surge protector.
• The product must be protected by a sui-
tably sized fuse.
• The product must be protected by a su-
itably sized magnetothermic switch on
the main input line.
• The product must be installed in a verti-
cal position with the front / label facing
the front or in a horizontal position with
the front / label facing upwards. Other
product installation positions are not
allowed.
• Do not connect inductive loads.
• Do not connect to UPS (uninter-
ruptible power supply) with ou-
tput other than Pure Sine Wave.
The device is not grounded. Protection
from accidental contacts is guaranteed
by the casing.
• Use in thermally harsh environments
could limit the output power.
• In the system, keep the 90-230Vac circu-
its and the non-SELV circuits separate
from the SELV circuits at very low safety
voltage and from the KNX bus
• It is absolutely forbidden to connect, for
any reason whatsoever, directly or indi-
rectly, the 90-230Vac mains voltage to
the KNX bus or to the loads.
• Use double insulated cables.
Warning! To power the KNX bus lines, use exclusi-
vely KNX bus power supplies (e.g. ekinex EK-AB1-
TP, EK-AG1-TP or EK-AM1-TP). The use of other
power devices can compromise communication
and damage the devices connected to the bus.
!
Outputs
The cables connected to the outputs must be correctly
sized and must be isolated from any wiring or parts with
di󰀨erent voltages. The length and type of connection ca-
bles must comply with the regulations in force.
Conguration and commissioning
The conguration and commissioning of the device re-
quires the use of the ETS® (Engineering Tool Software)
V5 program or later versions. These activities must be
carried out in accordance with the design of the building
automation system created by a qualied professional.
To congure the device parameters, the corresponding
application program or the entire ekinex® product data-
base must be loaded into the ETS® program. For detailed
information on the conguration possibilities, consult the
application manual of the appliance available on the web-
site www.ekinex.com.

Note. The conguration and commissioning of KNX
devices require specialized skills. To acquire these
skills, you should attend the workshops at KNX cer-
tied training centers.

2. Four-wire connection with phases and neutral reversed
Not having phase and neutral references, the device can
also be connected by inverting all the phases with the
neutral:
3. Three-wire connection with common neutral
This 3-wire conguration is useful for connecting loads in
systems with phase/neutral already connected.
Commissioning
For commissioning the device the following activities are
required:
• make the electrical connections as described above;
• turn on the bus power supply;
• switch the device operation to the programming mode
by pressing the programming pushbutton (5) loca-
ted on the front side of the housing. In this operating
mode, the programming LED is turned on;
• download into the device the physical address and the
conguration with the ETS®program.
At the end of the download the operation of the device
automatically returns to normal mode; in this mode the
programming LED is turned o󰀨. Now the bus device is
programmed and ready for use.
Device reset
To reset the device, remove the power from the KNX bus;
then press the programming button and, keeping it pres-
sed, restore power to the KNX bus: if, after approximately
10 s, the programming LED ashes quickly, it means that
the reset has been carried out. At this point it is necessary
to re-address and congure the device via ETS.
Warning! The reset operation brings back the devi-
ce to its factory delivery state. The addressing and
value of the parameters set during conguration are
lost.
