Procedures:
  • DALI Mode: Configure the dimmer in DALI mode to manage short and open circuit flags. The default power-on level is set to 255.
  • Phase Cutting Modes: For two-pole and one-pole phase cutting, set the dip-switches and connect the appropriate terminals. The system supports leading and trailing edge phase cuts.
  • 0-10V/1-10V Mode: Connect the control signal to the specified terminals. The dimming curve is linear, and the system defaults to maximum output if the signal is disconnected.
  • Potentiometer Mode: Connect a 47kW linear potentiometer for control. The system defaults to maximum brightness if disconnected.
  • Dimming on Power Cut: Use a switch to control dimming. The system saves the brightness level automatically.
  • Timed Switch-off Mode: Set the dip-switches for timed control using a button or sensor. The system supports various timing intervals.
  • Slave Mode: Configure the dimmer to receive synchronization signals from another dimmer.
Standards and Recommendations: Ensure compliance with IEC 62386 standards. Use shielded cables and maintain specified distances for optimal performance. Adjust PWM output frequency using dip-switches to meet IEEE1789-2015 standards for flicker-free operation.
Warnings and Best Practices:
  • Ensure resistors used as dummy loads are placed away from dimmers to prevent overheating.
  • Phase-cut dimmers must handle a minimum current of 2mA to avoid flickering.
  • Use good quality potentiometers to prevent output instability.
Specifications and Features: The document outlines the settings and features of a dimmer device, including dip-switch settings for enabling/disabling short circuit protection. It emphasizes the importance of using a compliant LED power supply or an external fast fuse to prevent damage in case of a short circuit. The device supports various modes such as PUSH, Phase-cut, Slave, and DALI DT6, with specific dip-switch configurations for each.
Compatibility: The dimmer is compatible with a range of devices from brands like OSRAM, JUNG, ACTEC, LUTRON, TCI, BTICINO, VIMAR, NEWLAB, TECNEL, FINDER, RELCO, and DALCNET. It supports 0-10V/1-10V active/passive modes and phase-cut dimming.
Standards and Compliance: The device complies with several standards, including IEC/EN 62386-101/102/207 and IEC 60929-E.2.1. It is marked with CE and UKCA, indicating compliance with relevant EU directives.
Maintenance and Disposal: The device is maintenance-free and should be cleaned with a dry cloth. It must be disposed of according to the European Directive 2012/19/EU (WEEE recast) to prevent environmental damage.
Warnings and Documentation: Installation and configuration should be performed by qualified personnel. Opening the device voids the warranty. Defective devices should be returned to the manufacturer. The document is available for download on the ekinex website, and further support can be obtained via their technical support email.
