Warning

 – Read the instructions - We recommend that you read 

this instruction manual prior to commencement of installation.

Standards - 

The temperature limits and carrying capacity of 

communication wires must comply with HD 384.5.523 and the 

installation of home and building automation and control systems 

must comply with HD 60364-4-41 where applicable.

Special Programming – 

This device is designed for professional 

installation only, and will only operate in basic modes unless 

programmed via a computer.  If programming is required, contact 

your local agent for details.  Once the data cable is connected to 

the devices, the factory default settings will allow any control panel 

to control all channels in all dimmers.

Check Connections – 

Re-tighten all connections after installation. 

Power Sources – 

This device should only be operated from the 

type of supply specified on the front cover. This device must be 

earthed.

Output Circuit – 

The load on the switched circuits should not 

exceed the specified capacity of 16 A (UL) / 20 A (CE), these 

circuits should be fed via a 20A circuit breaker.

Load Control Circuit – 

A 2-coreDALI cable is required to be run to 

the loads. This cable is in addition to the mains feed.

Load Type – 

This product is intended to control DALI drivers and 

devices.

Location – 

Install in a dry, well-ventilated location. Controllers may 

emit some mechanical noise. Take this into account when deciding 

the mounting location.

Data Cable – 

Use screened RS485 data cable. Segregate from 

mains cable by 300mm minimum. Connect devices in a ‘daisy 

chain’. A data cable connected to an energized device is live. Do 

not cut or terminate live data cables.
