5. Setup and Installation

Important: Ensure the main power supply is turned off at the circuit breaker before beginning any installation work.

1. Wiring the Dimmer Module:

   Connect the input (L and N) terminals of the dimmer module to your 100-240V AC power supply. Connect the output (L and N) terminals to your dimmable light fixture. If using a push switch, connect it to the "Push Switch" terminals.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1. Using the RF Remote Control

The included RF remote control allows for wireless operation of the dimmer. Ensure the CR2 battery is correctly installed.

• Power On/Off: Press the ⏻ button to turn the lights on or off.
• Dimming Up/Down: Use the ▲ (up arrow) and ▼ (down arrow) buttons to adjust brightness.
• Preset Brightness: The remote may include buttons for preset brightness levels (e.g., 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%).
• Scene Selection: Buttons labeled S1 and S2 can be used to save and recall custom brightness scenes.

6.2. Pairing the Remote Control

1. Pairing: Briefly press the "Match" button on the dimmer module (usually a small button next to the DIP switches). The connected light will flash once. Within 5 seconds, press the ON/OFF button on the desired RF remote control. The light will flash 3 times, indicating successful pairing.
2. Unpairing: To unpair a remote, press and hold the "Match" button on the dimmer module for 5 seconds. The connected light will flash 9 times, indicating all paired remotes have been cleared.

6.3. Using the Push Switch (Optional)

• Short Press: A short press (less than 0.5 seconds) will turn the lights on or off.
• Long Press: A long press (more than 0.5 seconds) will dim the lights up or down. Release and press again to reverse the dimming direction.

6.4. DIP Switch Settings for Dimming Mode and Minimum Brightness

The dimmer module has DIP switches to select between lead edge (forward phase) and trailing edge (reverse phase) dimming, and to set the minimum brightness level. Refer to your lamp's specifications to determine the correct dimming mode.

• Dimming Mode: Typically, incandescent and halogen lamps use lead edge dimming, while most LED lamps use trailing edge dimming. Incorrect mode can cause flickering or damage.
• Minimum Brightness: Adjust this setting to prevent flickering or unstable operation at very low dimming levels, especially with LED lamps. Start with a higher minimum brightness and gradually decrease until stable operation is achieved.

7. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Disconnect power before cleaning. Wipe the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Battery Replacement: Replace the CR2 battery in the remote control when its performance degrades. Ensure correct polarity.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect wiring connections for any signs of wear or damage.
