DIM BASIC

The modular

DIM BASIC

 module is at the heart of the modular

DIM

 concept.  

It has three output channels which can individually drive up to 100 DSI  
devices (PCA, TE one4all, PCD) and provides power to the extension modules 
via the iX interface. DSI devices connected to each channel can be dimmed 
or switched via the DSI signal as independent channels or combined as one 
group. In addition the modular

DIM BASIC

 has three PIR inputs to connect 

standard presence detectors with potential free contacts. Each channel can 
be switched independantly. One presence detector can be linked to all three 
channels via a  bridge to the other PD inputs thereby allowing all three  
channels to be switched as one. 

modular

DIM SC

The modular

DIM SC

 is an extension module powered directly by the modu-

lar

DIM BASIC

 module. It has been designed to allow the user to recall four 

different light scenes. A short push of the momentary switch recalls a light 
scene. To store a light scene you must initially set the light levels via the 
modular

DIM BASIC

 module. A long push (> 10 s) to one of the modular

DIM 

SC

 momentary switches stores the new light scene. Confirmation that the 

scene has been stored will be indicated by the luminaires connected to the 
modular

DIM BASIC

 module dimming up and down.

modular

DIM LC

The well known modular

DIM

 system will be extended by the new designed 

modular

DIM LC

 which provides the opportunity to integrate common,  

commercial of the shelf mains rated “presence detection (PD) units/sensors” 
(converts main rated signals into potential free signals based on the galvanic 
isolation). The modular

DIM LC

 is designed as “to build in unit” for the  

integration into a switch cabinet. This unit is easy to install and to  
com mission because there is no programming effort. 
Therefore this important feature of the modular

DIM LC

 gives now the  

opportunity to combine the modular

DIM

 system with the common,  

commercial of the shelf main rated “presence detection (PD) units/sensors”.
*  PD 1 – PD 3 potential free in order to the com-contact (because of the  

galvanic isolation)

modular

DIM DM

The modular

DIM DM

 is an extension module powered directly by the modu-

lar

DIM BASIC

 module. It is designed to provide daylight linked control of 

the artificial lighting in a room. The daylight value if measured by a daylight 
sensor that is connected directly to the modular

DIM DM

 module. Daylight 

control is across a dimming range of 0 % to 100 %, with each  
channel being programmed with its own dimming characteristic. Channels 
can be controlled independently or as combinations of channels. The  
auto matic daylight linked control can be disabled via an external switch  
(switching contact open 

 daylight function active / switching contact  

closed 

 daylight function inactive).

Technical description

The modular

DIM

 lighting control system consists of three modules. The modular

DIM BASIC

 module, which acts as a group controller and power supply to  

the two remaining modules. The modular

DIM SC

 module for recalling light scenes and the modular

DIM DM

 daylight linked module.
