Universal dimmer (flush mounted) Instruction Manual

WARNING

Newly produced drivers work in the RFIO² data protocol mode.
These drivers are loaded in the actuators in a different way than before. Among other things, it eliminates the risk of inadvertently loading another randomly occurring controller within range.
Drivers can still be switched to so-called compatibility mode, and loaded in a simpler (older way).
The mode in which the controllers are working is changed and indicated after 8-second pressing of the ‘Prog’ button.
The LED diode under the pushbutton is on when the button is kept pressed; after 8 seconds it indicates the chosen mode by different flashing intervals.
The mode changes to the inverse mode after each pressing of the button.
RFIO2 mode
= Double flash (flash, flash, gap, flash, flash)
Compatibility mode
= Flash fast (flash, flash, flash, flash, flash)
Update the controller actuators in RFIO² mode
If the controller is used in RFIO² mode, then to update the controller actuators, it is necessary to switch not only the actuator to the update mode (according to the instructions for the actuator), but also the controller in the following way:

  • Press the programming button on the controller, converter for more than 1 second and release it.
  • The LED diode starts flashing in second intervals. Leave the LED flashing
  • activate the programming mode on the actuator by pressing the programming button for more than 1 second. The actuator is also put into the programming mode.
  • The desired function can be selected by the respective number of pressing of the control pushbuttons or inputs (of the converter).
  • The programming modes on the controller and actuator can be closed by pressing the programming button for less than 1 second. The LEDs stop flashing.

Use a suitable tool (paper clip, screwdriver) to push on the control pin.
The batteries are raised and the programming button is released.| After removing the control flaps, the programming button is accessible.

The programming button is operated with a suitable thin tool.|

Characteristics

  • The universal built-in dimmer is used to regulate light sources:
    R – classic lamps.
    L – halogen lamps with wound transformer.
    C – halogen lamps with electronic transformer.
    ESL – dimmable energy-efficient fluorescent lamps.
    LED – LED light sources (230V).

  • They can be combined with detectors, controllers, iNELS RF Control or system components.

  • The BOX design lets you mount it right in an installation box, a ceiling or light cover.
    7 light functions – smooth starting up or running out with time setting 2 sec to 30 min + additional function SWITCH OFF

  • Setting of minimum brightness eliminates blinking of LED and ESL light sources

  • Universal dimmer may be controlled by up to 25 channels

  • Control input “S” for connection of the existing wired pushbutton

  • Programming pushbutton on the element can also be used as manual control of the output

  • For the elements marked as iNELS RF Control2 (RFIO2), it is possible to set the function

  • For components labelled as iNELS RF Control2 (RFIO2), it is possible to set the repeater function via the RFAF/USB service device.

  • Range up to 200 m (in open space), if the signal is insufficient between the controller and unit, use the signal repeater RFRP-20 or protocol component RFIO2 that support this feature.

  • Communication frequency with bidirectional protocol iNELS RF Control2 (RFIO2 ).

  • Programming is performed by pressing the PROG button for more than 1s.
    In the programming and operating mode, the LED on the component lights up at the same time each time the button is pressed – this indicates the incoming command.

Compatibility

The device can be combined with all system components, controls and devices of iNELS RF Control and iNELS RF Control2.
The detector can be assigned an iNELS RF Control2 (RFIO2) communication protocol.

Programming with RF control units

inELs RFDEL 71B SL Universal Dimmer - address

The address listed on the front of the actuator is used for programming and controlling actuators by RF control units.

SETUP mode (load type selection and minimumbrightness setting)
Load type setting and minimum brightness setting

Switching over to the SETUP mode can be carried out by quick fourfold click on the programming pushbutton. (4x PROG < 1s) The choice of the load type is the first function of the SETUP mode. In this mode the output brightness changes automatically between 0% and 100% and the LED on the instrument indicates the actually chosen load type:
– R, C mode – fourfold flash
– L mode – double flash The mode can be changed to the inverse mode by pressing the pushbutton on any controller that is already learned. Setting of minimum brightness is the other function of the SETUP mode.
This function can be chosen by short pressing the PROG pushbutton. This mode is indicated by the same blinking mode as the learning mode (LED blinking 1x per second). Minimum brightness can be set using any already learned controlled. Another short pressing the PROG pushbutton closes the SETUP mode and the preset type of the load and minimum brightness are saved into memory.

Delete actuator

Deleting one position of the transmitter

By pressing the programming button on the actuator for 5 seconds, deletion of one transmitter activates. LED fl ashs 4x in each 1s interval. Pressing the required button on the transmitter deletes it from the actuator’s memory. To confi rm deletion, the LED will confi rm with a fl ash long and the component returns to the operating mode.

Deleting the entire memory

By pressing the programming button on the actuator for 8 seconds, deletion occurs of the actuator’s entire memory. LED fl ashs 4x in each 1s interval. The actuator goes into the programming mode, the LED fl ashes in 0.5s intervals (max. 4 min.). You can return to the operating mode by pressing the Prog button for less than 1s. The LED lights up according to the pre-set memory function and the component returns to the operating mode.

Control with external button
The function for the external “wired” pushbutton can be assigned in the same way as for the wireless pushbutton, i.e. by pressing the programming pushbutton on the actor and respective number of control pushbutton pressings.

Additional information

Do not mix more types of light sources!
Do not try to use energy saving bulbs that are not labeled as dimmable!
Incorrect setting of the type of light source aff ects the extent and dimming (but no damage to the dimmer or load).
Incorrect setting of the type of load can cause overheating of dimmer.
Maximum number of light sources depends on their internal structure.

Warning

Instruction manual is designated for mounting and also for user of the device. It is always a part of its packing. Installation and connection can be carried out only by a person with adequate professional qualifi cation upon understanding this instruction manual and functions of the device, and while observing all valid regulations.
Trouble-free function of the device also depends on transportation, storing and handling.
In case you notice any sign of damage, deformation, malfunction or missing part, do not install this device and return it to its seller.
It is necessary to treat this product and its parts as electronic waste after its lifetime is terminated.
Before starting installation, make sure that all wires, connected parts or terminals are de-energized.
While mounting and servicing observe safety regulations, norms, directives and professional, and export regulations for working with electrical devices.
Do not touch parts of the device that are energized –life threat. Due to transmissivity of RF signal, observe correct location of RF components in a building where the installation is taking place. RF Control is designated only for mounting in interiors.
Devices are not designated for installation into exteriors and humid spaces.
The must not be installed into metal switchboards and into plastic switchboards with metal door – transmissivity of RF signal is then impossible.
RF Control is not recommended for pulleys etc. –radiofrequency signal can be shielded by an obstruction, interfered, battery of the transceiver can get flat etc. and thus disable remote control
