Imtra PowerLED Dimmer
The ILIM80120 PowerLED Dimmer Module is
used to manually operate a circuit of
PowerLED Lights with on/off and dimming
control. Before making any connections,
be sure all power in the circuit is turned off
at the breaker. To install your PowerLED dimmer, connect the wires according to
the following wiring schematic. Failure to follow the wiring schematic exactly as
shown will result in failure & permanent damage to the dimmer.

Operating your PowerLED Dimmer and Lights
•For single momentary pushbutton operation
oTap any one pushbutton to turn on or off.
oPress and hold any one pushbutton to dim up or down.
•For double momentary pushbutton operation
oTap the button wired to the UP terminal to turn on
oTap the button wired to the DOWN terminal to turn off
oPress and hold any one of the momentary pushbuttons to dim
up or down.
•When the PowerLED Dimmer and Lights are set to off, a tap of the single
or UP momentary pushbutton will always turn them on to the previous
setting.
•When the PowerLED Dimmer and Lights are set to off, pressing and
holding the single or UP momentary pushbutton will dim the lights up
from 0%.
Power Up Default:
•When DC voltage to the PowerLED Dimmer and Lights is lost, the default
setting when powered up again is always off.
•This default setting can be changed by following these steps:
oRemove dimmer from the electrical circuit and disassemble the
enclosure by removing the two screws on the back.
oLocate the four DIP switches on the circuit board and slide
switch 3 to the on position.
oReassemble the dimmer and wire according to the wiring
schematic.

Imtra PowerLED Dimmer
(0-10V)
The Imtra PowerLED Dimmer Module can be used
for automated control of a circuit of PowerLED
Lights. The PowerLED Dimmer Module can
interface with any control system that can provide a 0-10VDC or 4-20mA Analog
signal. To configure your dimmer for these controls, follow these steps:
•Disassemble the dimmer by removing the two screws on the back.
•Locate the four DIP switches on the circuit board and slide switch 2 to
ON for 4-20mA signal or switch 1 and 2 to ON for 0-10V input.
•Reassemble the dimmer and connect per the following schematic.
Before making any connections, be sure all power in the circuit is turned
off at the breaker. Failure to follow the wiring schematic exactly as
shown will result in failure & permanent damage to the dimmer.
Note:
•For 0-10V signals, wire the signal positive to the V terminal.
•The PWM dimming level and 0-10V signal input are linearly related
(0V,0%; 10V,100%)
•For 4-20mA signals, wire the signal to the I terminal
•The PWM dimming level and 4-20mA signal input are linearly related
(4mA, 0%; 20mA, 100%)

PWM Control of PowerLED Lights
Imtra PowerLED Lights can also be controlled with a Pulse Width Modulating
signal. Many centralized lighting automation systems use this type of control.
To control your PowerLED using a PWM signal, the wiring and signal parameters
should be configured according to details below.
Note:
•5.0mS<TPWM<8.33mS (PWM Frequency=120-200Hz)
•Dim signal voltage to be 0VDC<VO<1.7VDC & 2.1VDC<VI<30VDC
•Current Sink I=1mA
