MARK10 – curve appropriate for Mark X fluorescent ballasts (60 to 120V) above 2% cutoff point, off below
2% cutoff point. Cutoff point adjustable, curve remains the same. Curve is linear light based on light meter.
TUWIRE – similar to Mark X but with a curve appropriate to Lutron TuWire fluorescent ballasts. Currently
this is the same as the MARK10.
HILUME – odd/even dimmer within a dual module paired as noted above. Variable dimmer with curve
appropriate for Lutron HiLime fluorescent ballast above the 2% cutoff. Switched dimmer off below the 2%
cutoff. Cutoff point is adjustable, curve remains the same. Standard cutoff should be changed to 1% to
match a2000. Again curve is linear light based on light meter. Note: Dimmer module must have CTP-4-0307
fluorescent handle tie kit installed. HiLume is not available for quad dimming.
LVMAG – standard square-law incandescent dimmer curve with adjustable cutoff in lieu of min and max
level.
NOTE: i Series e and QUAD will not control Mark VII fluorescent ballasts because there are no analog
output circuits available.
Then pressing that soft key will enter that “curve” into the edit screen and reorganize that screen
appropriately. As an example the HILUME screen is as follows.

Stepping further through the EDIT screen to LUM(aNet) causes a special soft key to appear. The default for
Luma-Net read back (feedback) is “on” as indicated by the “f” next to the Luma-Net address. In the lower
left corner of the screen a soft key labeled [DM-FB OFF] will appear. Pressing this key will turn off feedback,
remove the “f” and change the key to [DM-FB ON]. This key will toggle.
