Dynamic Preheat [Power]
This setting allows quick blackouts on dimmers that are set to preheat. It sets the amount of time a
dimmer will remain at a zero (0) level before returning to the preheat level. It can be set from 0.5
seconds to 15 seconds and has a default of 2 seconds.
DC Output Prevent [Power]
This setting offers protection on selected dimmers for loads that are sensitive to DC buildup, which can
occur under certain conditions when positive and negative half-cycles become uneven.
Inrush Protection [Power]
This setting protects against large voltage increases in a single AC cycle. This protection is useful for
high-wattage loads that may cause nuisance tripping of circuit breakers and to limit peak currents in
wiring and switch gear. This protection is particularly useful on RCD/GFCI protected circuits.
Advanced Features (AF) [Power]
Enables/disables additional feedback from a dimmer that provides load recording/reporting and
advanced error reporting including a breaker trip, module removed, load changes, dc output and SCR
failures.
(Report) Load Errors [Power]
Enables/disables messages to report load changes once initial loads have been recorded for a dimmer.
Load errors must be enabled to record loads in Load Management. See
Load Management

page 35
.
AF Sensitivity (1-10) [Power]
This setting defines the resolution of the Advanced Features sensitivity to report load changes. One (1)
is the most sensitive/highest resolution setting and the default is 5. AF sensitivity is based on a
percentage of the recorded load.
AF Reaction (Time) [Power]
This setting defines the hysteresis for an Advanced Feature error. The error must be present for the
minimum set in the AF Reaction Time before an error will be reported. Five (5) seconds is the shortest
amount of time and 60 seconds is the longest allowed.
Scale Load [Power]
This setting adjusts the choke correction curve based on the specified percent load of the maximum for
that dimmer type. Scale Load can be set from 1% to 100% and should reflect the approximate percent
load on a given dimmer to precisely match all dimmed load. The default setting is 35% which is based
on a single Source Four 750 W fixture on a D20 dimmer with a max scale voltage of 115 VAC.
