DIN-1DIMU4

The DIN-1DIMU4 is a 4-channel universal
lighting control module designed to support
dimming of both forward and reverse phase type
loads. A single model supports 120 and 220-240
volt electronic and magnetic low voltage,
incandescent, neon/cold cathode, 2-wire
dimmable fluorescent, and non-dimmable
lighting loads up to 5 amps per channel, 10
amps total.


Features

 4 channels of forward or reverse phase dimming
 Auto load detection
 120 to 240 Volt 50/60 Hz operation (Not for 277 VAC

operation)

 Selectable non-dim mode
 Extreme stability in noisy environments

 Short circuit and overload protection
 Master air-gap relay
 Setup via front panel or software
 Programmable functionality via DIN-AP2


Auto Load Detection
Each channel of the DIN-1DIMU4 is capable of auto-
detecting the dimmable load type connected to it and
selecting the appropriate operating mode to control that
load. Reverse phase (trailing edge) mode supports
incandescent and electronic low-voltage load types, while
forward phase (leading edge) mode handles magnetic low
voltage, neon, and other inductive load types. A non-dim
mode is also selectable for switching of non-dimmable
lighting fixtures. Any channel may be set for any mode,
allowing one dimmer module to handle any combination
of lighting types on four separately controlled circuits.

Phase-Synchronous Detection Circuitry

Proprietary Crestron zero-cross filter technology provides

superior immunity to noise on the power line, reducing
lamp flicker and compensating for fluctuations in line
voltage and frequency.

Short Circuit Protection

Built-in OCP (over current protection) prevents failure of
the DIN-1DIMU4 caused by excessive loading or improper
wiring of the outputs.

Master Air-Gap Relay

When all four channels are turned fully off, the internal
master relay automatically opens, providing air-gap
isolation that allows safe servicing and changing of light
bulbs on all four controlled circuits.
