1. Line Power Connection
• Connect the Slim Dimmer to a 120VAC 15A 60Hz power source using the NEMA 5-15 plug (Fig. 2)
• If the breaker (Fig. 2) trips, check the power source and cables being used before resetting
• Do not power the unit from a dimmed circuit
2. Load Power Connection
• The Slim Dimmer portable dimmer can control incandescent loads
• To prolong lamp life, set the control output to zero before connecting the load, see below
• Plug load(s) up to the capacity of the dimmer, into the NEMA 5-15 receptacle (Fig. 2) using properly
grounded and appropriately rated cords
1. Hanging
• If desired, a C-clamp may be attached to the dimmer for hanging, using a thread adapter and the 14”-20
threaded insert in the case of the dimmer
— Mounting hardware is available from Lex Products
• The ¼”-20 threaded insert can also accommodate a variety of alternate photographic and motion picture
mounting or hanging products
— Additional thread adapters are available from Lex Products.
• When hanging a safety cable (not included) must be used
• The dimmer is equipped with two holes on the face of the enclosure (Fig. 1) through which a safety cable
may be threaded and xed to a suitable structure (such as around the pipe to which the dimmer is clamped)
2. Resting
• The dimmer case may get hot when operated at or near full load
• The dimmer should only be hung or placed on ooring, equipment or furniture that is not susceptible to heat
damage.
1. The dimmer’s digital display will illuminate when powered
2. Slide the dimmer’s built-in fader to provide the desired lighting level
3. The digital display will indicate a percentage (0-100%), permitting the dimmer to be easily and repeatedly set to a
specic level
• It also permits multiple independent Slim Dimmers to be easily set to the same level
