Product Usage Instructions

Intended Use
The device is designed for the operation of dimmable 230 V LED lamps. It can be configured for leading edge or trailing edgecontrol and is suitable for various types of loads, including LED lamps with an integrated ballast.

Connection
Ensure proper connection to the mains with the specified cable types and wire stripping measurements. Follow the provided instructions for a safe and reliable connection.

Operation
Use the device to control the brightness of connected LED lamps. Short button press turns the channel on or off, while a long press allows for dimming. Be mindful of the load types and maximum load capacities per channel.

Programming
Utilize the program button for any necessary configurations or adjustments. Refer to the technical reference manual for detailed programming instructions.

FAQ

Q: What is the maximum load capacity for the LED dimmer?
A: The maximum load varies based on the model. For example, the UD/Sx.210.2.1x at 230V/60Hz has a maximum load of 200W/VA per channel.
Q: Can I use this dimmer with non-LED loads?
A: The device is primarily intended for LED loads, but it can also work with other types of loads. Refer to the technical specifications for compatibility information.

DANGER

Dangerous currents flow through the body when coming into direct or indirect contact with live components. This can result in electric shock, burns or even death. Work improperly carried out on current-carrying parts can cause fires.
Disconnect the mains voltage and the control voltage prior to mounting and dismantling!
Work on the 110 – 240 V mains is to be performed by specialist staff only.

DANGER
Overheating and destruction of the device

When using transformers, each transformer must be fused individually on the primary side or with a thermal link according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
Wound safety isolating transformers according to DIN EN 61558 must be used exclusively.
Please read the mounting instructions carefully and keep them for future use.
Additional user information and information about planning is available at https://new.abb.com/en or by scanning the QR code.

Notice
Dimmer capacities > 1000 W only for professional use according to EN 61000-3-2.
Please contact your relevant energy supply company for approval of connection.

Intended use
The device is designed primarily for the operation of dimmable 230 V
LEDi. Operation can be selected either as leading edge or trailing edge control. All lamps listed in “Types of load”, especially LEDi loads (LED lamps with an integrated ballast), can be controlled.

For detailed information about the range of functions, see the technical reference manual (see QR code).

[C] Maximum load at 230 V per channel
[D] Load type
For admissible load types see graphics block.
For UD/Sx.210.2.1x at 230V/60Hz the maximum load amounts to 200W/VA.
Automatic detection of load characteristics (can be deactivated).
In leading edge control use only L or LC transformers. Pure transformers are inadmissible.
Observe the specifications of the manufacturer of the load for the operating mode (LEDi) and the minimum load (transformers). Operating mode, maximum and minimum brightness are parameterizable according the load.
For conventional transformers take ~20% und for electronic transformers take ~5% transformer loss into consideration.

Mounting

The modular device must only be installed on mounting rails according to DIN EN 50022 / DIN 60715 TH 35 (including industrial design). The modular device is latched onto the mounting rail.
Installation only in dry interior rooms. Observe applicable regulations.

Connection
Examples of connection to a 4-channel device

Connect the lighting system according to the connecting diagram.

Notice
The operation on isolation transformer networks with a connected load of ≤10 kVA is not admissible!

Increasing performance with channel bundling:

Raising performance by means of channel bundling is admissible;
it does not, however, lead to a multiplication of the channel load.
Further information on channel bundling is available in the technical manual.
Channels connected in parallel must be connected to the same phase. Parallel switching with different phases destroys the device.

Scope of Work:

The maximum connected load (100%) is admissible at an ambient temperature of -5°C – +45°C.

Beyond this, the derating curve [3] applies:
% = rated capacity; °C = ambient temperature

Please note that especially during leading edge control the device can heat up strongly due to the design of some LEDi. The connected load must then be reduced accordingly.
Further information on the derating factors is available in the technical manual.

Operation
The device is operated via KNX sensors or on the device on-site [1].
The on-site operation on the device [1] is also possible via the respective channel button when the device has not been integrated in a KNX system.

[1]| On-site operation on the device via LED operating buttons

Brief press of the button On / Off (press in case of an error)
Long press of the button Dimming
Press at least 10 sec: Load test

Commissioning

Different functions can be implemented via the ETS commissioning software. The function of the device depends on the parameters selected via the respective software application. At the point of delivery the device has 1 – 6 individually pre-programmed channels.
A group formation for increasing the load is to be performed during commissioning.
When the KNX bus has not yet been connected, a load test is triggered on the respective channel during initial commissioning with a brief press of the button on the on-site control.
During commissioning without load the channels/groups are not recognized.
Detailed information on commissioning and parameterization is available in the technical manual (see QR code).
Always use the current firmware version. The latest download files for the firmware update are located in the electronic catalogue https://busch-jaeger-catalogue.com The update is carried out via the KNX bus. For a detailed description see the technical manual (see QR code).

Switchover to programming mode:

Press the programming button [2].
The red programming LED flashes.
