10.2 Setting the button parameters
In the button settings menu, you can also set the button parameters, to adapt button operation precisely to your
requirements.
10.2.1 Dimming speed (Dim speed)
If the LGHT/DRK function is selected for the button, when you press and hold it the lights are dimmed. With this
parameter, you can define how quickly the brightness changes when the button is pressed.
10.2.2 Long press (Lng press)
When the button is pressed, the brightness only begins to change after a short delay. If the button is pressed only briefly
(shorter than this delay), the light is switched on or off. If you change this parameter, a long press of the button will be
detected earlier or later, and so the dimming process will react more quickly or more slowly.
10.3 Setup
10.3.1 Softstart
This parameter lets you determine how quickly the lights go to full brightness when switched on, or to full darkness
when switched off. Softstart enables the lights to be switched on in a way that protects them.
10.3.2 Min. dimming setting (Min. dim)
The lights are dimmed only to a certain dimming setting. Many lights start flickering if they are dimmed to a lower
setting than permitted. With this parameter, you are telling the light control how far the lights can be dimmed. If the
control wishes it to be darker still, all it can do is switch the lights off.
10.3.3 Switch-off delay for timer (Off delay)
The switch-off delay parameter causes an initial slow dimming process (twilight simulation), after the switch-off time of
a circuit has been reached. The twilight phase lasts for the number of minutes that you set here. The lights are only
finally switched off when the twilight phase has elapsed. In this way, you can prevent the timer from switching the light
off while you are still doing important work in the building, for example. If you press a button during the twilight phase,
it will start again from the beginning.
10.3.4 Control parameters (Ctrl param.)
In the Control Parameters menu, you can change parameters that specifically affect light control in AUTO mode or the
switch-off delay in TWILI mode.
Switch-on threshold (On thrshld)
If, based on the signalled sensor reading, the automatic control establishes that the lights would have to be switched
on at a very low dimming setting, the control does not switch on the lights if the control value is below the switch-on
threshold. The purpose of this feature is to ensure the lights must not be continuously switched on and off if the
brightness frequently fluctuates around the switch-on threshold – due to clouds, for example.
Off time
If, based on the signalled sensor reading, the automatic control establishes that the lights would have to be switched off,
the control initially waits for the period set here (in minutes), and only then does it switch the lights off. If the brightness
has diminished in the meantime, the lights are not switched off. The purpose of this feature is to ensure the lights must
not be continuously switched on and off if the brightness frequently fluctuates around the switch-off threshold – due to
clouds, for example.
Dimming speed (Dim speed)
Here, you can define the increments in which the control changes the brightness in AUTO mode, if a different brightness
is established based on the sensor reading. You can reach the desired brightness more precisely by setting finer dimming
