Communication
objects
one
‐
button
dimming
At
the
one
‐
button
dimming,
the
dimming
process
is
executed
by
one
single
channel.
So
it
is
possible
to
dim
the
lights
via
only
one
button.
By
a
long
keystroke
the
communication
“Dimming”
is
called,
which
is
responsible
for
the
dimming
process
and
by
a
short
keystroke
the
object
“Dimming
on/off”
is
called
which
is
responsible
for
the
switching.
The
dimming
direction
is
toggled
by
every
keystroke,
so
if
you
have
dimmed
darker,
the
next
time
will
be
dimmed
brighter
and
vice
versa.
The
one
‐
button
dimmeing
is
a
start
stop
dimming,
that
means
when
the
dimming
function
is
active
a
darker
or
brighter
command
is
sent
until
the
button
is
released
again.
After
releasing
the
button
a
stop
command
is
sent,
which
stops
the
dimming
process.
The
dimming
step
is
set
fixed
to
100%.
So
with
only
one
button
activation
the
lights
can
be
dimmed
from
0%
to
100%
or
from
100%
to
0%.
