Chapter 1 Summary
KNX Universal Dimming Actuator,1/2/4-Fold (hereinafter referred to as Dimmer) has 1/2/ 4 output
channels, and it can connect with dimmable lamps (such as incandescent lamps, halogen lamps,
energy-saving lamps, LED, etc.), and you can dim, preset scene, switch these lamps or other operations
via the bus. In addition, as well as KNX Data Secure.
This dimmer is a modular installation device for fast installation in the distribution board on 35 mm
mounting rails to DIN EN 60 715, the output adopts screw terminal to realize electrical connection. Bus
connection is directly connected via KNX terminal, the additional power supply is not required except
KNX bus.
You can build the various scenes with the dimmer, such as watch movie, entertainment, dinner and
rest, and so on; its brightness value can be set as any value (1-100%); it is able to set the duration time
to dim up or down to the target brightness and the gradual speed to extend the luminaries life and save
energy.
The physical address assignment and parameter settings can be used with the engineering tool
software ETS (version ETS5 or above) with the .knxprod file.
In use you need to note the type of connected electrical load, thus reasonable select them and
note their technical performance. If the technical performance of the selected load is not consistent
with the technical performance of the dimmer, it is possible to affect the dimming effect.
The manual provides detailed technical information about the dimmer, including installation and
programming details, and explains how to use the dimmer in conjunction with examples in actual use.
