8.2.1 Troubleshooting 1…10 V

•

Lamp does not burn with 100 % luminous flux

The control line is not connected or not correctly connected to the

control unit, or the control unit is not a sufficiently good current sink
and, hence, cannot reduce the control voltage.

Check the wiring. Check that the control voltage is reduced while

dimming and, if necessary, install a parallel resistor in the control
line.

Also one or more control inputs may be pole reversed:

•

•

Disconnect control unit

•

•

Subdivide control circuit

•

•

Further subdivide control circuit

•

Lamp always burn at minimum brightness

+ and - connectors of the control line are reversed, or short circuit

in the control line.

Connect lines with correct polarity, check wiring

•

The lamp does not show the required luminous flux when
controlled with potentiometers or fixed resistors.

Potentiometers or resistors are wrongly dimensioned. Check the

values

•

Insufficient brightness along the lamp

Spacing of the reflector to the lamp is too small, capacitive dis-

charge currents occur.

Increase gap between the reflector and the lamp

•

Synchronous lamp flickering

Fault is outside the dimming system, e.g. N conductor disconnec-

tion, control voltage not OK

Check N conductor connection and control unit
