  • LED load capacity: 0-100W (max 10 dimmable LED bulbs)
  • Halogen/Incandescent load: 10-250W
  • Protection index: IP20
  • Operating temperature: -20°C to +45°C
  • Installation: Standard flush-mounted wall box (60mm)
  • Connection: 3 clamps, max 1.5 mm² cable cross-section

Installation

Electric connection schemes for typical and stepped systems
Electric connection schemes for typical and stepped systems
  1. Deactivate the main fuses of the home installation.
  2. Verify the presence of a phase wire in the installation box.
  3. Remove the regulatory button using a screwdriver.
  4. Push the clips on the side walls of the external adapter to remove it.
  5. Connect the phase wire to the clamp marked with 'L'.
  6. Connect the other wire to the clamp marked with an arrow. For dual-circuit systems, connect the third and fourth wires to the clamp with the arrow.
  7. Secure the dimmer module in the installation box using resilient clips or fastening screws.
  8. Assemble the external frame.
  9. Reattach the dimmer and control button.
  10. Activate the main fuses and perform functional tests.

Programming

Configuration of Minimum Light Level

If the light flashes during dimming, the minimum light level must be increased:

  1. Switch off the controller and turn the knob to the MINIMUM position (all the way left).
  2. Restart the regulator 3 times with a 1-second interval between switching on and off.
  3. The light will flash, indicating it is in CONFIGURATION mode.
  4. Within 3 seconds, turn the knob right until the light switches on and set the desired minimum level.
  5. Leave the controller for 3 seconds to save the setting.

Changing Operation Mode

If the regulator does not operate properly (e.g., flashing), change the mode:

  1. Switch off the controller and turn the knob to the MAXIMUM position (all the way right).
  2. Switch off and on 3 times with 1-second intervals.
  3. The light will flash, indicating CONFIGURATION mode.
  4. To select Mode 1: Turn the knob to MINIMUM, then back to MAXIMUM within 3 seconds.
  5. To select Mode 2: Turn the knob to MINIMUM within 3 seconds.
  6. The light will turn on once for Mode 1, or twice for Mode 2, confirming the setting.

Practical help

Common problems

Light flashing during dimming

Increase the minimum light level setting using the programming procedure.

Regulator not working properly

Change the operating mode from Mode 2 to Mode 1, or vice versa.

This indicates an overload or short-circuit protection trigger; check the total load.

Before use

  • Ensure the light source is dimmable (LED, halogen with electronic transformer, or incandescent).
  • Verify the total load is within 0-100W for LEDs or 10-250W for other bulbs.
  • Ensure the installation box is a standard flush-mounted box (60mm).
  • Deactivate main fuses before starting installation.
  • Ensure the installer is a suitably qualified person.

Specs in practice

LED load capacity
Supports 0-100W total, with a maximum of 10 dimmable LED bulbs.
Protection index IP20
Protected against solid objects over 12mm; not waterproof, for indoor use only.
Voltage supply
Standard 230V~ 50Hz mains power.

Images and diagrams

  • Typical electricity connection: Standard wiring for a single dimmer control.
  • Connection in a stepped system: Wiring diagram for two-way control using a stepped switch.

Model compatibility

  • Does not work with halogen lights powered by magnetic or toroidal transformers.
  • Do not connect two regulators in a two-way system as it may damage them.
