DANGER

Risk of serious damage to property and per-

sonal injury, e.g. from fire or electric shock,

due to incorrect electrical installation.

Safe electrical installation can only be ensured if

the person in question can prove basic knowl-

edge in the following areas:

•Connecting to installation networks

•Connecting several electrical devices

•Laying electric cables

These skills and experience are normally only

possessed by skilled professionals who are

trained in the field of electrical installation technol-

ogy. If these minimum requirements are not met

or are disregarded in any way, you will be solely li-

able for any damage to property or personal inju-

ry.

DANGER

Risk of death from electric shock.

The outputs may carry an electrical current even

when the device is switched off. Always discon-

nect the fuse in the incoming circuit from the sup-

ply before working on connected loads.

Operating instructions

Art. no. MEG5134-0000

For your safety

ende

With the Universal rotary dimmer insert for LED lamps

(hereafter referred to as dimmer) you can switch and

dim ohmic, inductive or capacitive loads:

The dimmer automatically recognises the connected

load. It is overload-proof, short-circuit-proof, protected

from overheating and it has a soft-start function.

Yo u c a n s e t t h e d i m m i n g r a n g e a n d a d j u s t t h e o p e r a t i n g

mode (from trailing edge phase to leading edge phase).

CAUTION

The dimmer may be damaged!

•Always operate the dimmer according to the

technical data provided.

•Connected dimmers may be damaged if you

connect a combination of loads (inductive and

capacitive) at the same time.

•The dimmer is designed for sinusoidal mains

voltages.

•If transformers are used, only connect dimma-

ble transformers to the dimmer.

•Dimming socket outlets is prohibited. The risk

of overload and connecting unsuitable devices

is too high.

•If a terminal is used for looping, the insert must

be protected with a 10 A circuit breaker.

Connect three dimmers at most to one cable with

16 A fuse protection.

If you do not install the dimmer in a single, stand-

ard flush mounting box, the maximum permissi-

ble load is reduced due to the decreased heat

dissipation:

* If several factors apply, add the load reductions

together.

Dimming range

The dimming range of the dimmer can, if necessary,

be adapted to the dimming range of lamps from different

manufacturers.

Setting the dimming range

Depending on the dimming range of the lamp,

malfunctions may occur for values near the maxi-

mum and minimum brightness. (Refer to the

chapter "What should I do if there is a problem?")

Setting the device

Setting the minimum and maximum

brightness value

1 Set the potentiometer to MINA/MAXB.

2 Hold the micro button down for 5 seconds.

(The lamp lights up briefly.)

maximum brightness.

4 Press the micro button briefly.

The selected brightness is saved as the minimum/

maximum brightness and the set mode is closed.

Operating mode

The default setting of the dimmer is the RC mode. The

dimmer recognises the connected load automatically,

however this can lead to malfunctions in some lamps

(see manufacturer's specifications). In this case you can

adjust the operating mode.

Switching the operating mode to RL LED mode

1 Set the potentiometer to RL(LED).

2 Hold the micro button down for 5 seconds.

(The lamp lights up briefly.)

The operating mode is switched to "leading edge phase

for LED lamps" (RL LED mode) and the minimum/

maximum brightness value is reset.

In the operating mode "leading edge phase for

LED lamps" (RL LED mode), LED lamps can only

be connected at up to 10 % of the maximum

permissible dimmer load.

Resetting to default mode

1 Set the potentiometer to RESET.

The dimmer dims down regularly during operation

and cannot be dimmed up again.

•Allow the dimmer to cool down and reduce the

connected load.

The load cannot be switched back on.

•Allow the dimmer to cool down and reduce the

connected load.

•Rectify any possible short circuits.

•Renew defective loads.

The load is dimmed to the minimum brightness.

•The circuit is overloaded. -> Reduce load.

•The circuit falls short of the minimum load. -> Increase

load.

•Dimming range is incorrect. -> Reduce maximum

brightness value.

The load flickers at minimum brightness.

The circuit falls short of the minimum possible brightness

value.

•Increase minimum brightness value (set dimming

range).

The load flickers continuously.

Incorrect operating mode set.

•Switch operating mode to "leading edge phase for

LED lamps" (RL LED mode).

•Alternatively, reset operating mode to default.

The load can only be dimmed slightly.

• Set dimming range.

•Switch operating mode to "leading edge phase for

LED lamps" (RL LED mode).
