5. Press [Off Button] to save settings.

Adjusting Low-End Trim

This feature allows you to set the lowest dimming level to prevent flickering or premature bulb shut-off.

To adjust, follow steps 2-5 in the "Replacing Light Bulbs Using FASS" section above. The slider position after step 4 will be saved as the new low-end trim.
