6 Function description
The device is a dimming actuator, which activates its output channels according to telegrams sent by other
devices on the bus.
It also incorporates additional features such as e.g. timing and logic combination features, described in the
following chapters.
6.1 Power-on behaviour
After switching on the bus, which also acts as the main power supply, the device becomes fully functional
after a very short time needed for reinitialization; a further delay is programmable for the device to become
active on the bus in order to avoid a bus traffic overload during the first moments of startup of the whole
network.
A fully unprogrammed device causes no activity on the bus; anyway, outputs can be operated in manual
mode (see below) through the membrane key panel on the top.
In case of a bus power failure (voltage lower than 19 V for 1 s or more), the device is switched off; on power-
off, all current working values are saved.
