ON-Switching / control operation
The ON/OFF function can be performed according to the multi-switch position with the switch contact, the
pushbuttons or the analog control voltage. At the switch ON operation a fade process transfers the control to the
light level to be kept constant in dependence of the daylight portion or to the light level being set via the analog
voltage value (e.g. with a potentiometer). This process can be performed without light sensors (just by a set
control value) or with light sensors according to the sensor signals. Switch OFF functions are performed
without any delay.
An automatic ON/OFF function can be realized through sensors (motion/daylight). The switch OFF function in
this case is made only after the (set) delay times.
The switch ON value is the stored value or the value being selected with the analog control voltage. In connection
with light sensors the module operates always in the constant light mode after being switched ON.
If a manual control is selected with the switch positions 3 - 6 the module automatically changes the mode of
control. This mode remains unchanged unless a switch ON function through motion or manually is determined.
With the switch positions 1, 2 and 10 the module remains in the lighting control mode even if the analog control
voltage would change.
Sensors
All sensors automatically are identified. Light sensors would initiate a constant light control. Motion detectors are
operating the module after presence detection. With Multi-Sensors lighting operates in dependence of the daylight
(constant light control) and motion detection as well.
For an extension of the range of identification, defined areas of control up to 6 different light sensors can be
connected in parallel. All 6 sensors are forming a mean value. If one presence sensor identifies motion all lights
are being switched ON – provided the light sensors are signaling that the daylight falls below the set value.
The DALI Dim/Converter Control operates in combination with light or motion sensors or with both functions
(multi-sensors). The different sensors are to be connected to the respective input [LS] and [B].
If the automatic (sensor) mode shall be left the dimmer has to be switched voltage-free and the power ON has to
be made without connection to the sensors.
Analog control input
The analog control input [AS] is in function with the selector switch positions 1, 2 and 10. An analog voltage
switches and dims. Switching functions and light levels can be determined.
The input [AS] is an analog voltage input. For an operation within systems with the 1...10V interface or
potentiometers an external bridge from terminal 5 to 6 has to be wired. Terminal 5 [1...10V] includes therefore an
internal current supply of approximately 450 µA. The control consequently can be performed alternatively through
control modules for the 1...10 V interface as well as those for 0-10V systems.
At the switch selector position 1 a transfer inside a voltage range of approx. 1-10V can be made, in position 10
inside a voltage range of approx.. 0-10V. The ON/OFF switching is possible with the separate switch contact at
[T1]. In selector switch position 2 the transfer inside a voltage range of approx. 1,4V to 10 V can be made. The
ON / OFF switching is possible at a voltage of approx. 1,4V (<1,4V=OFF).
