6/11/2023 0 Comments Loxone dimmer![]() – A Motion Sensor Tree in each room (unless using our Ceiling Light with inbuilt motion sensor) – A minimum of 80% of the lighting should be Loxone Tree. The following hardware must be included in a Loxone Smart Home project: To qualify, the following functions must be commissioned: The 3% bonus will be in the form of a credit note on your account. The Smart Home Bonus is available on projects where the components were purchased after. Have you commissioned a true Loxone Smart Home? If so, you’ll effectively receive an addition 3% discount off the list price of all the Loxone components you’ve used in this project. The next stage in the process is to configure the Lighting Controller in Loxone config, click on the image below to see how: CONFIGURE AIR DEVICEĬlick here to see documentation on how to learn a Loxone Air Device in to Loxone config. We suggest you test your proposed fittings with the Dimmer Extension before purchasing them for the project. However as inrush varies hugely between products it is a good idea to check with the manufacturer what the potential peak load could be with their product.Īs the circuitry inside a mains 230V dimmable LED will effect the dimming performance and this varies hugely between manufacturer and even within batches of the same manufacturer. As such a 400W channel should not have more than 200W of LEDs being controlled by it. When specifying LEDs for 230V dimming we suggest that you back-rate the maximum load by 50%, this is to account for heating and potential inrush current. ![]() Alternatively you can contact us for more technical data if required. If you are unsure at any point when wiring up any of our devices, please contact a suitably qualified electrician. As such in UK homes the best place to locate the Nano Dimmer Air is in the ceiling void as we rarely have 4 cores available at the light switch back box to facilitate this. Although the Nano Dimmer Air has two connection points for light circuits it is only a single channel dimmer therefore they can only be controlled together.]Īs with all Loxone 230V phase dimming the Neutral is also required both “in” and “out”. The diagram below shows how the Nano Dimmer is wired inline for the light circuit. Please note that if mounting the Nano Dimmer air in a back box then it needs to be at least 35mm deep and ideally 45mm in order to fit. The Nano Dimmer Air can be mounted either in the ceiling void or in the switch back box. The Nano Dimmer Air is designed to fit in-line with the current light circuit to enable dimming control of the circuit. When doing 230V dimming we use a technology called phase dimming and the product required to do this is the Nano Dimmer Air. If not being lead into 230V dimming by a product (light fitting) limitation we would suggest looking into 24V dimming as this is a much more cost effective option better performance, more here. If we are looking to dim these lights then we will need to look at hardware specific to the task. Smart devices do not use the fade rate from the configuration (it is set to "Jump" and perception correction is always active), because the fade is transmitted with each command.When looking to utilise a current light fittings in a project often these are 230V fittings.

If bit 3 is set, it is disabled for white. If any of the bits 0-2 are set, fading is disabled for RGB. The standard devices always use the fade rate, but it can be disabled by setting bit 0 to bit 3 in B1 (for the four RGBW components). The fade time is either in 1/10s (bit 14=0) or in seconds (bit 14=1). Smart Device have a fade time, which is managed by the device.

The dimming is updated at a fixed frequency between 123Hz and 1kHz.
