Problem: I've replaced an AFM with a dimmer module in an AF Sensor rack and it won't work. Nothing comes up. Answer: Check to see how that slot is configured via "About > 1 > #". If the slot is not configured as a dimmer module, it will not work until the rack is re-configured...

Problem: Dimmers set to switched mode will not shut off. Answer: Sensor 3.1 had a software bug that held dimmers in switched mode to 15 percent. This was fixed in 3.11 software. Workaround: Set non-motorized loads to non-dim. Sites using motors on d20's should think about using R20s regardless of...

Question: What is the Best ETC dimmer to use to control a Fan or Motor? Answer: SCR-based dimmers are the best to use in this situation based on the fact that it may receive a non-linear kick-back in voltage. For this reason the D15 and D20 modules are your best choice. This kick-back may damage the...

Risetime and Lamp Noise - What's the Connection? Everyone agrees that while a certain amount of dimmer noise at the rack is OK, noise at the lighting fixture is unacceptable. The popular wisdom is that the only way to prevent this dimmer–induced lamp noise is to specify high risetime dimmers...

If your relays are chattering or not firing in your Sensor, Sensor+ or Unison rack there may be a problem with the neutral wire on your signal distro card. Make sure that the neutral wire is present and connected on both ends. This problem can also cause ELV10 modules to not work correctly in test mode...

When equipment goes bad out in the field, it's often extremely helpful if the owner/end user can keep track of the circumstances of the failure. This is especially true when the problem is intermittent and might not occur when the technician is present. Service Technicians are exceptionally skillful...
