Description of parameters
Flickering 1 – Count of stairs.
The controller is factory-set for 15 steps. This can be changed with this parameter. The range is
from 5 to 23 steps. To change the number of steps, press and hold the
SET
button during the first
flickering. You should release the button after the right number of flicks. Eg., to set 18 steps, release
the button after 18th flick.
Flickering 2 – Count of rails.
The controller is factory-disabled for lighting the railing. You can turn on one or two rails. Note:
two rails should be set only if in the entire staircase there are handrails on both sides. In other cases,
such as one handrail divided into two sections, set the operation to one handrail! Releasing the button
after the first slow pulse sets the lighting for one rail, and letting go after the second pulse – sets
the lighting for two rails. Releasing the button after the end of flickering and before the first pulse
switches off the backlight railing.
Flickering 3 – Count of stairs to a mezzanine.
The controller also can be used for a staircase with an entrance to a mezzanine. This case supports
the third detector (or button) connected to the input No. 3. The controller is factory-set to no animation
at the entrance to the mezzanine - turn on the whole staircase. However, you can start the animation
consisting of successive lighting of stairs up and down from the mezzanine. You will need to set in
this option, which is the number of stairs from the bottom to the mezzanine. To set the number of
steps, press and hold the
SET
button during the third flickering. You should release the button after
the right number of flicks. Eg., to set 8 steps, release the button after 8th flick.To re-enable lighting up
stairs upon entering mezzanine you must let go off the button immediately after the third flickering.
Flickering 4 – Staircase backlight.
Steps backlighting is used to gently brighten the steps so they are easily visible, which gives a
pleasant impression. There is no possibility of adjusting the backlight brightness. The backlight does
not work with lamps without a dimming function (dimmable); in such a case it should be turned off.
For this parameter (backlight on), releasing the button just after the flickering ends turns the backlight
off, and releasing after the first pulse – turns it on.
Flickering 5 – Animation type.
The controller has 3 different light animation programs (for upward direction):
WAVE
– stairs light
up one after another,
CASCADE
– the light „jumps” fast from top to bottom, lighting up the steps,
ELEVATOR – three lighted steps slowly „move” to the top of the staircase. When descending, the
direction of the animation changes suitably. In the factory, the animation cycle is preset in the follo-
wing way: first
WAVE
, then
CASCADE
and finally
ELEVATOR
, and then the sequence is repeated.
Releasing the button after the first pulse turns the program 1 (Wave), the second pulse turns on
program 2 (Cascade), and releasing the button after the third pulse switches permanently to program
No. 3 (Elevator). To return to the cycle animation function, the button should be let go immediately
after the end of the flickering.
