Key Features

• Installs at the breaker panel/fuse box for X-10 control of branch lighting circuits rated up to 700W.
• Controlled via X-10 controllers or momentary action wall switches, including "designer" wall switches.
• Designed to operate with 230V lighting including mains halogen.
• Remembers its light level for smooth dimming.

The DIN rail dimmer is a 700W receiver unit that works as a remote dimmer. Mounted on the "Top Hat" DIN rail in the mains distribution box, it dims or switches hardwired circuits with several wall switches (eg. Living room lighting). It is designed to operate with 230V lighting including mains halogen.

The unit can be turned on/off, and brightened/dimmed either by an X-10 controller or by external momentary action switches connected to Terminal 2. It responds to "standard" X-10 commands. ie. All-Lights-On, All-Units-Off, On, Off, Bright and Dim. It also responds to extended X-10 commands. Combined with the memory dim feature, the LD11 can change the room lighting instantly or progressively. This unit is especially designed for scene lighting where very often the lighting is mains powered low-voltage halogen, commonly used in living room, study/reading rooms. The unit can be installed in sub-junction boxes for discrete control.
