Dimmer Settings

The interface buttons and repeating color LEDs are used to navigate the 
settings menu. You can change the phase dimming mode or set the LED 
drive mode to control the minimum dimming level. 

Phase Dimming Mode

The controller supports three modes: Reverse, Forward, and Automatic 
phase detection (default). With Automatic phase, the controller recognizes 
if the load is inductive or capacitive and automatically switches to forward 
phase for an inductive load or to reverse phase for a capacitive/resistive load.

To change the phase dimming mode:

1. Press and hold both the 

[Learn]

 and the 

[Clear]

 buttons until both the 

Power and Learn LEDs blink blue to access the dimming menu.

2. Release both buttons. The Power LED remains ON solid blue and the 

Learn LED blinks blue to indicate the current phase setting:

• 1 blink = Automatic phase detection (default)
• 2 blinks = Reverse phase dimming (for ELV, LED, incandescent, or 

halogen loads)

• 3 blinks = Forward phase dimming (for MLV loads)

3. Press and release the 

[Learn]

 button to cycle through the blink codes 

until your target setting displays.

4. Press and hold the 

[Clear]

 button until the Learn LED blinks blue to 

save and exit the menu.

Note:

If the lighting load is not dimming smoothly when 
controlled by the dimmer, contact technical services 
before adjusting the phase dimming mode.
