Set Dimmer Name [User]
The Set Name menu allows a User to name a dimmer. Names are alphanumeric and can
be up to 20 characters long (not all 20 characters may be visible on the LCD).
Set Module Type [Power]
The Set Module Type menu allows a User to set a dimmer or range of dimmers to a specific
module type and firing mode. If the module is set to "Fluorescent", you also set the
threshold in this menu. Threshold is the control level that must be present for the
fluorescent dimmer to output voltage based on the selected curve.
Pos (Position) [Power]
This is a display only field. It lists the position of each circuit within a rack.
Set Firing Mode [Power]
The Set Firing Mode menu allows a User to set a dimmer or a range of dimmers to a
specific firing mode. Available modes include Normal, Off, Switched, Fluorescent and DD
(Dimmer Doubled).
• Off: turns the dimmer off.
• Normal: operates as a standard incandescent dimmer.
• Switched: dimmers output unregulated AC voltage when the control level is above the
threshold level.
• DD (Dimmer Doubled): dimmer operates as two controllable circuits. See
Doubling (60Hz systems only)", page

Set Curve [User]
The Set Curve menu allows a User to set a dimmer or a range of dimmers to a specific
curve. A dimmer curve is a mathematical function that maps control levels to RMS output
voltage. Curves are scaled from the minimum voltage to the maximum voltage (settings that
are not available to the User login). The CEM+ supports the following curves: Square, Mod
Square, Linear, Mod Linear, Sensor 2.0. See
information.
Set Threshold [Power]
The Set Threshold menu allows a Power User to set a dimmer or a range of dimmers to
come on at a specific intensity level.
Set Min Scale Voltage [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.
Set Max Scale Voltage [Power]
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.
Voltage Regulation [Power]
When enabled, the dimmer will regulate to the desired output voltage. When disabled, the
dimmer will be set to a constant firing time based on the control level. This setting defaults
"on". The ability to disable regulation is sometimes useful when dimming non-tungsten

Changing the dimmer firing mode will cause a change to default settings for curve,
minimum voltage, maximum voltage, threshold and regulation. Whenever a
dimmer mode is set the defaults for that mode will be applied to the other dimmer
properties.
