FAQs

What type of bulbs can I use with the dimmer function?

You can use dimmable LED bulbs (up to 150W total load per dimmer) or dimmable Halogen/Incandescent bulbs (up to 300W total load per dimmer). It is essential that the bulbs are specifically marked as 'dimmable'.

How do I switch between trailing edge and leading edge dimming?

The dimmer module has a simple push-button setup. Refer to the product manual for the specific procedure, which typically involves pressing and holding the button while the power is cycling.

Can I control a light from two different locations with this dimmer?

Yes, this is a 2-way intelligent dimmer. For multi-location switching, you will need to wire it with additional standard 2-way switches. These additional switches are typically provided separately.

What does 'soft-start technology' do?

Soft-start technology gradually brings the lights to the set brightness level over approximately 1-2 seconds. This gentle power-up helps to extend the lifespan of your light bulbs.

Is installation difficult?

Installation involves electrical wiring and should be performed by someone with adequate knowledge of electrical systems. For safety and compliance, professional installation is recommended.

What are the dimensions of the switch plate?

The dimensions are approximately H 86mm x W 146mm x D 4.5mm.

Does the switch come with everything needed for installation?

The switch plate and modules are included. Screw caps for a screwless appearance are also provided. However, for 2-way switching with dimmers, additional standard 2-way switches will be needed, which are supplied separately.

Troubleshooting

Dimmer light flickers or buzzes

Ensure you are using dimmable bulbs. Try switching the dimmer mode (trailing edge/leading edge) using the setup button. If the issue persists, the bulb may not be fully compatible, or the total wattage may be too high or too low for the dimmer.

Rocker or dimmer switch not working

Check that the power supply is on and the circuit breaker has not tripped. Verify wiring connections against the product manual. Ensure the correct type of bulb is installed (dimmable for dimmers).

Dimmer does not dim lights

Confirm that the installed bulbs are dimmable. Check the maximum wattage rating for LED (150W) and Halogen/Incandescent (300W) to ensure you are within the limit. Try the other dimming mode (leading/trailing edge).

Unit feels warm during operation

Some warmth is normal, especially when operating at or near maximum load. If the unit becomes excessively hot, switch off the power immediately and check for overload or short circuits. Ensure ventilation around the unit is not obstructed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Combines multiple switch types on one plate, saving space and improving aesthetics.
  • Soft-start technology prolongs the life of connected light bulbs.
  • Flexible dimming options (LED, Halogen, Incandescent) with adjustable edge control.
  • Integrated safety features provide peace of mind.
  • Modern design with screwless finish enhances interior decor.

Cons

  • Requires dimmable bulbs; standard bulbs will not work correctly with the dimmer function.
  • The dimmer's maximum LED load is 150W, which may be insufficient for larger lighting installations.
  • Installation requires basic electrical knowledge; professional installation is recommended for safety.
  • Two-way switching for the dimmer requires separate standard switches, adding to complexity if multi-location control is needed.
  • The grid system's flexibility might lead to confusion if not planned carefully during installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation requires wiring into your existing mains electrical system. Ensure the power is switched off at the mains consumer unit before commencing. The modules can be configured on the plate before mounting. Follow the wiring diagrams provided with the product for correct connection of the rocker and dimmer modules. For multi-location control with the 2-way dimmers, additional standard 2-way switches will be required and wired in conjunction.

Compatibility: This switch is compatible with dimmable LED bulbs (max 150W total load per dimmer) and dimmable Halogen/Incandescent bulbs (max 300W total load per dimmer). It is crucial to use bulbs explicitly marked as 'dimmable'. Non-dimmable bulbs will not function correctly with the dimmer and may cause damage. The dimmer can operate in either trailing edge or leading edge mode, selectable via a button, to ensure optimal performance with different types of dimmable bulbs.

Care: To clean the switch, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or scouring pads, as these can damage the plastic finish. Ensure the switch is dry before restoring power.
