FAQs

What type of bulbs can I use with this dimmer?

You can use dimmable LED bulbs (up to 150W total load) or dimmable Halogen/Incandescent bulbs (up to 300W total load). It is crucial that the bulbs are specifically marked as 'dimmable'.

How do I switch between leading edge and trailing edge mode?

The dimmer can be easily switched between leading edge and trailing edge modes using a simple button setup. Refer to the product manual for the specific button press sequence required.

Can I use this dimmer to control lights from two different locations?

Yes, this is a 2-way intelligent dimmer. For multi-location switching, you will need to pair it with standard light switches (not other dimmers).

What does 'soft-start' technology do?

Soft-start technology gradually brings the lights to the set brightness level over approximately 1-2 seconds when switched on. This helps to prolong the lifespan of your lightbulbs.

Is the dimmer silent during operation?

Yes, the award-winning Enkin modules provide silent and flicker-free dimming.

What is the maximum wattage for LED bulbs?

The maximum load for dimmable LED bulbs is 150W.

How should I clean the antique brass finish?

Clean with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. A slightly damp cloth can be used for marks, but ensure it is dried immediately afterwards.

Troubleshooting

Dimmer switch does not turn on lights.

Ensure the circuit breaker is on. Verify all wiring connections are secure and correct according to the installation manual. Check that the connected bulbs are dimmable and not exceeding the maximum load capacity.

Lights flicker or buzz when dimmed.

Confirm that only dimmable bulbs are installed. Try switching the dimmer mode (leading/trailing edge) using the setup button. Ensure the bulb type (LED, Halogen, Incandescent) matches the dimmer's capabilities and load limits.

Dimmer feels warm to the touch.

Slight warmth during operation is normal, especially under higher loads. If the dimmer becomes excessively hot, immediately turn off the power and check the total wattage of the connected bulbs. Ensure the load does not exceed the 150W LED or 300W Halogen/Incandescent limit.

2-way switching is not functioning correctly.

Verify that the additional switch used in the 2-way circuit is a standard, non-dimmer switch. Check all wiring connections between the dimmer and the secondary switch.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation requires basic electrical wiring knowledge. Ensure power is switched off at the mains before commencing. The dimmer features a straightforward push-button setup for mode selection (leading/trailing edge) and initial configuration. For 2-way switching (controlling lights from two locations), standard light switches can be used in conjunction with this intelligent dimmer. Please refer to the manufacturer's detailed wiring diagrams for specific configurations.

Compatibility: This dimmer is compatible with dimmable LED bulbs up to a maximum load of 150W. It also supports dimmable Halogen and Incandescent bulbs with a maximum load of 300W. It is essential to use only *dimmable* bulbs. Non-dimmable bulbs will not function correctly and may cause damage.

Care: To maintain the antique brass finish, clean the dimmer with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the plating and finish. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed immediately by drying with a soft cloth.
