Controller can regulate up to
two groups of light, either in
two separate rooms, or two
light groups placed in the
same room. For measuring
the light level in the room/light
group, the G 8210 2220 is
used. The light level is trans-

The light level setting which

a "memory setting" in the
internal memory and is rese-

switched on via channel 1/4.
A power failure will not erase
the memory setting. The light-

a soft-start facility.

With the GAP1605 programming unit, each switching channel
can be assigned any address between A1 and P8 via the mo-
dular socket on the front of the dimmer. The allocation of the
channels is as follows:
coding of the dimmer can be carried out without either supply
voltage or Dupline signal. It is retained permanently, but may be
overwritten at any time. The Dimmer outputs are configured in
such a way at the factory that they will be switched off in the
event of a fault. This configuration, too, can be changed with
the GAP1605. Setting "1" results in switching on the lighting to
100% in case of a fault, while setting "0" switches off the Dim-
mer outputs (factory setting).
Commissioning may only be carried out by an authorized,
trained technician. Observe the connection diagram when
installing. All lines to be connected must be dead.
will cause malfunctions and are not permissible. Attention
should be paid to the correct polarity of the supply voltage and
the Dupline signal. In order to meet the requirements for protec-
tive low voltage, VDE 0100, part 410, should be observed and
applied during installation.
The controller is programmed with the GAP1605 programming
unit. Up to seven addresses are used. As default, the controller
is programmed for channels A1 to A7.
Channel 1/4 (programmed to A1/A4) turns the output on or off
by short activation. By long activation (> 9 s), the output starts a
slow dimming process until the channel is released again.
Channel 3/6 (A3/A6) sends the output status for the desired
output. The channel is on when the output is on. For receiving
light levels from the light sensors, channels 2/5 (A2/A5) are
used as inputs for serial data. Channel 7 (A7) is also used for
receiving data from the light sensors. The channel is used as an
input for synchronizing the serial data. In the configuration soft-
ware for the Master Generator, the channel must be selected as
a ,,Daylight sync." channel. The Master Generator will then
automatically generate the sync. signal used for the controller
and the light sensors. Only one channel in the Dupline system
needs to be configured as a sync. channel, independently of
the number of light controllers and light sensors. All sync. chan-
nels of the modules just have to be configured to the same
channel selected in the Master Generator.
