• DC Output Prevent: this setting offers protection on selected dimmers for loads that are
sensitive to DC buildup, which can occur under certain conditions when positive and
negative half-cycles become uneven.
• Inrush Protection: this setting protects against large voltage increases in a single AC
cycle. This protection is useful for high-wattage loads that may cause nuisance tripping
of circuit breakers and to limit peak currents in wiring and switchgear. This protection
is particularly useful on RCD/GFCI protected circuits. Settings for inrush protection
include: Instant, 100mS (for loads up to 10A), 300mS (for loads up to 25A) and 500mS
(for loads of 50 or 100A).

The Set Threshold menu allows a Power User to set a dimmer or a range of dimmers to
come on at a specific control level.

The Max Scale Voltage menu allows a Power User to set a dimmer or a range of dimmers
to a maximum output voltage that is the top (100% control) of the scaled output of that
dimmer.
S e t M i n S c a l e V o l t a ge [ Power]
The Min Scale Voltage menu allows a Power User to set a dimmer or a range of dimmers
to a minimum output voltage that is the bottom (1% control) of the scaled output of that
dimmer. The dimmer will switch on to an RMS output voltage of Min Scale Voltage when
the control level reaches the value set for threshold.

The Assign Dimmer to a Room menu allows a Power User to set a dimmer or a range of
dimmers to a specific room for use with recording presets. A dimmer can only be assigned
to a single room at a time. There are four (4) rooms available and all dimmers default to
being assigned to Room 1.

The Advanced Features menu allows a Power User to set Advanced Features (on/off),
Report Load Errors, AF Sensitivity, and AF Reaction Time for a dimmer or range of
dimmers.
• Advanced Features (on/off): additional feedback from a dimmer that provides load
recording/reporting and advanced error reporting including a breaker trip, module
removed, load changes, dc output and SCR failures.
• Report Load Errors (on/off): allows for messages to report load changes once initial
loads have been recorded for a dimmer.
• AF Sensitivity (1 to 10): defines the resolution of the advanced features sensitivity in
reporting load changes. One (1) is the most sensitive/highest resolution setting and the
default is 5. AF sensitivity is based on a percentage of the recorded load.
• AF Reaction Time (5 to 60 seconds): this setting defines the hysteresis for an advanced
feature error. The error must be present for the minimum set in the AF Reaction Time
before an error will be reported.

The Dimmer Check menu allows a User to set an output level and then step through
dimmers at a selected starting point.
