Observe national regulations.Even when the device is turned off, voltage may be present at its terminals. You can view your wishlist by creating or login account. But they do behave differently to conventional bulbs and in many cases you need to take consideration when using them with Fibaro Dimmer 2 modules.LED bulbs are very different to the conventional bulbs they're replacing. FIBARO Dimmer 2 can be used as a dimmer or switch, both in two- and three-wire systems. Forced auto-calibration will set this parameter’s value to 2. 0000072145 00000 n
0000072616 00000 n In this way the user may determine to which commands the device should respond.FIBARO Dimmer 2 is equipped with a B-button, which allows to use the MENU mode and additionally perform the following actions:In order to enter the menu press the B-button and hold for at least 2 seconds. While the B-button is still pressed, LED indicator colour will change in the following sequence:Release the B-button to choose the desired function and confirm your choice with the B-button click.Dimmer 2 is equipped with an algorithm of smart light source detection. 0000005429 00000 n The dimmer bypass should be installed in one of the light fittings or in the wiring going to the light fitting (Figure 1), it must be connected between the light's Live and Neutral wires.
Hold button to change level or double press to set level to max (only momentary switch). Dimmer 2.
Fibaro Z-Wave Dimmer Bypass 2. The Fibaro Dimmer Bypass 2 should be installed in one of the light fittings or in the wiring going to the light fitting (Figure 1), it must be connected between the Switched Live coming from the Fibaro Dimmer 2 going to the light fitting(s) and the Neutral. 0000007385 00000 n 0000009714 00000 n power on, load error, etc. The switch connected to the S2 terminal is an optional switch and pushing it without changing the configuration parameters will not affect the status of the device. It is recommended to use 3-wire installation with conventional light sources (halogen, incandescent).Some capacitive lights (e.g.
).The device may respond in the following manner to received data-frames (settings are configured in configuration parameters, see „Advanced parameters” on page 22):Events result from installation flaws, faulty light source operation or incorrect manual changes in advanced configuration. If you vary the voltage and current applied to the bulb you can directly change its brightness.LED bulbs are more complex, they include electronic circuitry to control them and enable them to work in domestic mains (230V) electrical systems. 0000004490 00000 n 0000073632 00000 n It does not apply to 1st Lifeline group. Timer is reset and counted from zero after each report. Setting this parameter to 0 will disable the incandescence functionality.
In extreme cases, system response may be delayed.FIBARO Dimmer 2 allows to customize its operation to user’s needs.
0000003868 00000 n Switch no. This application note is provided as a guide, all work is are carried out at your own risk. Load Ratings. The value is a percentage of the previous report. It is useful in a case of 2-wire connection with light sources other than resistive. Only roller blind switches are not allowed in such configuration.Occasional flickering of the lighting may be the result of ripple-control signals from the electricity supplier. 0000072702 00000 n It activates the basic functionality of the Dimmer 2 (turning the light on/off, dimming) and starts the learning mode (Add/Remove). The effect is more frequent in 2-wire installation, on low dimming levels and with LED light sources. Do not connect other types of fluorescent lamps!When connecting FIBARO Dimmer 2 act in accordance with the following rules:After switching on the mains voltage LED indicator will signal Z-Wave network inclusion state with a colour:Switch connected to the S1 terminal is a master switch.
If you have a Fibaro Dimmer Bypass 2 installed it is required to force the appropriate calibration procedure using the B-button menu or Parameter 13.
This means that it is easy to exceed the maximum load on the Fibaro Dimmer 2 without even realising it! 0000034369 00000 n
0000071759 00000 n I have a switch downstairs and one switch upstairs that control the same light at my entree downstairs. It may cause temporary problems with communication in the Z-Wave network.
Hi, just got my Fibaro dimmer 2 installed, in the ceiling rose. 0000009051 00000 n I configured it using the scheme below, i found this on a website. During this period Z-Wave connection is disabled and the Fibaro Dimmer 2 will not reply to any commands.
There are a million settings in the device handler for the Fibaro Dimmer so it can be adjusted to work with a large number of light bulb types, and its performance can be adjusted to suit your needs or preferences. Copyright 2020 Vesternet All Rights Reserved. 0000035346 00000 n Parameter determines, which actions will not result in sending frames to association groups. For that reason it is not advisable to power on the Fibaro Dimmer 2 without the desired Load. 0000009145 00000 n Setting this parameter to 1 automatically ignores brightening/dimming time settings.
The current status of the Dimmer 2 is shown on the bar indicator.Resetting the device is not the recommended way of removing the device from the Z-Wave network. The Dimmer 2 will set to this value after first switch on.
Faulty connection or use may result in fire or electric shock.All works on the device may be performed only by a qualified and licensed electrician.
Additional apparent power limit of 350VA is active by default.
Hello following the invaluable help from Robin I installed a test Fibaro dimmer with load module this morning, installed at the switch as per the drawing from Vesternet with live wire to L on dimmer, common from switch to SX on dimmer, L1 from switch to S1 on dimmer, a loop from N on dimmer to the arrow through the sine wave on the dimmer and the switch wire to the light fitting also …
The procedure of learning the light source type is called During the calibration procedure, radio connection is disabled and the Dimmer 2 does not respond to any commands.
