User Manual

Universal dimmers N 527 are easy to install. The main modules
can be manually operated directly on the housing front. A yellow
LED indicates direct operation. The operating state of the extension
modules can also be viewed: Six LEDs show whether the connected
extension modules are on (red), off (green) or whether there is
a fault (flashing). All universal dimmers also feature two inputs for
the connection of conventional buttons used for direct control of
the respective dimming output. Hence, the extension modules can
also be operated in a conventional way, individually and autono-
mously, without KNX.
Thanks to the wiring between main module and extension modules,
the devices can be placed individually in the control panel, on two
or several top hat rails, if required.

To create attractive illumination and an inviting atmosphere in the
sales field, the universal dimmers can be set to different dimming
levels. This way, the focus can be put on products and exhibits
while in other areas lighting can be dimmed to a lower level. This
saves energy and directs attention to the more important objects.
Using a room operating unit, the dimmers can be controlled via
KNX and a number of lighting scenarios can be selected, stored
and retrieved, e.g. for shop opening and closing times. To highlight
products and to ensure optimum presentation during shop opening
times, more lighting is used. During shop closing times, lighting
is reduced.
The two universal main modules for up to 300 VA and 500 VA
are equipped with an interface for the connection of up to five
universal extension modules. These modules deliver a dimming
output of up to 300 VA, 500 VA and 1000 VA respectively.
What’s more, the dimming output can be increased to a maximum
of 1,000 VA by connecting in parallel the outputs of two extension
modules of 1,000 VA each. Special versions are available for proper
islanding.
