pdated: Mai-17 (Subject to changes)                                                                                                  Page 50 of 63  

 

4.3.2  Selection of RC or L response:  

 

Alongside the recommendations of the ESL manufacturer, the following applies: 

 

RC-mode:

 Generally recommended for ESL, especially for high loads (advantage: less heat 

generated in the dimmer).  

 

L-mode:. 

With ESL, only use if a disruptive flickering is noted during dimming up or down.
