Model: 28170 / ZW3105
ADVANCED OPERATION
The following Advanced Operation parameters require that you have an advanced controller like the model 45601
LCD remote. Advanced remotes from other manufacturers may also be able to change these settings; however,
basic remotes do not have this capability.
All On/All Off
Depending upon your primary controller, the 28166 plug‐in dimmer module can be set to respond to ALL ON and
ALL OFF commands in up to four different ways. Some controllers may not be able to change the response from its
default setting. Please refer to your controller's instructions for information on whether or not it supports the
configuration function and if so, how to change this setting.
The four possible responses are:
‐ It will respond to ALL ON and the ALL OFF commands (default).
‐ It will not respond to ALL ON or ALL OFF commands.
‐ It will respond to the ALL OFF command but will not respond to the ALL ON command.
‐ It will respond to the ALL ON command but will not respond to the ALL OFF command.
Dim Rate Adjustments
Both the number of steps (or levels) that the dimmer will change and the timing of the steps can be modified to
suit personal preferences. The timing of the steps can be adjusted in 10 millisecond intervals. As an example, the
default setting for parameter 8 is "3". This means that the lighting level will change every 30 milliseconds when the
Dim Command is received. A value of 255 would mean that the level would change every 2.55 seconds. Combined,
the two parameters allow dim rate adjustments from 10 milliseconds to 4.2 minutes to go from maximum‐to‐
minimum or minimum‐to‐maximum brightness levels.
