Fade Rate 6 = Light(s) will fade (ramp) on over a

 seconds

Then Operands

 are Turn Off, Turn On, Toggle (flip/flop), and Set to Level (Dim).  Note: Dim levels are also used for virtual button 

presses on Keypads.  See page 13.

Fade Rate (Ramp) - A dimmer device can be set to fade On/Off over a time period.  Settings are: 0=none, 1=2 Secs, 2=4 Secs, 

3=8 Secs, 4=16 Secs, 5=32 Secs, 6=46 Secs  NOTE: Fade Rate 7 has some unique functionality. See page 13 & 14 for details.

For  (Duration) -  Allows a duration to be set for the light, after which it will revert back to its previous state.  Duration can be Days, 

Hrs, Min, Sec, or a Custom Setting selection.

Note: Percent % (dim) values 2 thru 20 @ Fade Rate=0 and Fade Rate=7 are reserved.  This means it is not possible to di

-

rectly control a Homeworks QS Dimmer to % (dim) values 2 thru 20 UNLESS the Fade Rate is set to a value of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 

or 6.  The drawback is that setting a Homeworks QS Dimmer to dim level 1 thru 20 cannot be immediate.  Rather it will be 

slightly delayed by the value programmed as the Fade Rate.
