Troubleshooting

Connected LED lamps or compact fluorescent lamps switch off in the lowest dimming position or flicker

• The set minimum brightness is too low.
• Increase minimum brightness.

Connected LED lamps or compact fluorescent lamps flicker

• Cause 1: Lamps are not dimmable. Check manufacturer’s instructions. Exchange lamps for another type.
• Cause 2: Dimming principle and lamps do not optimally match. For HV-LED: Check operation in another dimming principle, reduce connected load as well if necessary. For LV-LED: Check the lamp operating device and replace as necessary. With the “Universal” setting: Define the dimming principle manually

Connected HV-LED lamps or compact fluorescent lamps in the lowest dimming position are too bright; dimming range is too small

• Cause 1: The set minimum brightness is too high. Reduce minimum brightness.
• Cause 2: HV-LED trailing edge phase control dimming principle does not optimally match the connected lamps. Check operation in the “HV-LED leading edge phase control” setting, reduce connected load as well if necessary. Exchange lamps for another type

Output has switched off.

• Cause 1: Overheating protection has tripped. Disconnect output from mains, switch off associated circuit breakers. HV-LED trailing edge phase control: Reduce the connected load. Exchange lamps for another type. HV-LED leading edge phase control: Reduce the connected load. Check the operation in the “HV-LED trailing edge phase control” setting. Exchange lamps for another type.
  Let device cool down for at least 15 minutes. Check installation situation, ensure cooling, e.g. provide distance from surrounding devices.

• Cause 2: Overvoltage protection has tripped. HV-LED trailing edge phase control: Check the operation in the “HV-LED leading edge phase control” setting, reduce the connected load as well if necessary.

Exchange lamps for another type.

The response of the surge protection can be signalled by sending a short- circuit telegram or can be determined by polling the “short-circuit” communication object.

Cause 3 : short-circuit in output circuit Disconnect the output from the mains supply. Eliminate short-circuit.

• Switch on mains voltage again. Switch the affected output off and on again.
• When a short-circuit occurs the affected output switches off. Automatic restart when short-circuit is eliminated within 100 ms (inductive load) or 7 seconds (capacitive or ohmic load). After that lasting switch-off.
• When a short-circuit occurs during the calibration process, the load calibrates itself again after the short-circuit is eliminated

Cause 4 : load failure. Check load, replace lamp. For inductive transformers, check primary fuse and replace if necessary.

Output cannot be operated.

• Cause 1: Output is disabled.
  • Cancel disabling.
• Cause 2: Application software missing or faulty.
  • Check programming and correct.
  • Output off and not possible to switch on
  • Cause: bus voltage failure.
  • Check bus voltage

Luminaires flicker or buzz, proper dimming not possible, device buzzes

Cause : wrong dimming principle set.

• Installation or commissioning error. Disconnect device and luminaire, switch off circuit breaker.
• Check installation and correct.
• If the wrong dimming principle has been preselected: Set correct dimming principle.
• If dimming actuator calibrates itself incorrectly, e.g. with highly inductive mains or long load cables: preselect correct dimming principle with commissioning

LED lamp is dimly lit when dimmer is switched off

• Cause : LED lamp is not optimally suited for this dimmer.
• Use a compensation module, see accessories.
• Use another type of LED lamp or an LED lamp of another manufacturer
