Overview
The Echo Phase Adaptive Dimmer (ELVD) provides control for individual
fixtures or zone power for line voltage tungsten, 2-wire fluorescent, LED, and
electronic low-voltage loads, up to 600 watts.
The ELVD automatically provides reverse-or-forward-phase dimming based on
the connected load type. The ELVD is compatible with all Echo control
products, including daylight and occupancy / vacancy sensors and manual
control stations on the EchoConnect control bus.
The ELVD controls lighting loads based on the following:
Preset and Zone controls received from connected Echo control stations
Ambient light levels as monitored by Echo Light Sensors
Occupancy state as monitored by Echo Occupancy/Vacancy Sensors
Input from other Echo control devices
Custom Configuration Option
This document guides you through the installation and local configuration of
the Echo Phase Adaptive Dimmer. Advanced functionality is available using
EchoAccess. For more detailed information, reference the EchoAccess Mobile
App integrated help system.
