Programming Option 7: High-End Trim
What Does It Do:
Some lamps require a lower High-End Trim than others. This feature allows the user to determine the maximum light level
and adjust the settings accordingly.
SETTINGS
High-End Trim allows the ability to change the highest achievable light levels.
Note:
Default setting is IL7.
DIRECTIONS

Programming Option 7: High-End Trim.
Once Indicator Light
(IL7) is blinking, Press the Tap

,
Press the Raise / Lower

Note:
While setting the High-End Trim, it is advised that the programmer observes the actual light (load) and not the
Indicator Lights on the dimmer to determine what is the optimum setting. Incremental levels of light intensity
exist between each Indicator Light setting, and the programmer may have to press the Raise / Lower button
several times before the next IL will illuminate.
