The dimmer is designed to operate as a combined switch and dimmer, taking up only one gang in a wall plate.
However, some lamps (for example, non-dimmable CFL’s) can flicker when switched OFF by pressing the rotary dial. In these cases it is recommended that the dimmer is used in ‘Separate Switch Mode’ and combined with a standard mechanical switch. Note this also applies where two way switching operation is required.
When used in the Separate Switch Mode, the dimmer turn-on level needs to be set. This is covered in Step 4 below.
Step 1
Enter into the dimmer Setup Mode – See PART A
Step 2
Click the dimmer rotary shaft six times
Step 3
LED will blink 6 times
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Step 4
To Enable Separate Switch Mode
Adjust the dial Clockwise until the lamp(s) turn ON
Note the level the lamp(s) are adjusted to during this step will be the turn on level when the separate switch is used during normal operation
To Disable Separate Switch Mode
Adjust the dial Anti-clockwise until the lamp(s) turn OFF (or pulses ON/OFF)
Note: To cancel/exit do nothing for 30 seconds
Step 5
Click once to save & exit
Note for Separate Switch Mode
– Clicking the rotary dial will toggle between the minimum level and the previous level
– ‘Wake up’ mode cannot be used
– LED indicators are always off when the separate switch is off
– The dimmer does not recall the previously set dimming level when switched back on. It turns back on to level set in step 4 above.
