DIM BAR SDM-W10
Powerline controllable and reprogrammable dimmer for LED drivers
General description
Wiring diagram
The DIM BAR is an LED driver control device which
provides high energy savings at low investment,
installation and maintenance efforts. Is designed for
standard LED PWM dimmable drivers delivering features
for dimming, based on user predefined dimming
sequence. The DIM BAR is programmable via
powerline communication.
Application
Characteristic
The DIM BAR is designed for mounting inside
luminaires in various lighting applications such as
parks, residential areas, streets, roads, highways,
parking lots, ports and others. It is compatible with
most of standard LED PWM dimmable drivers and is
also suitable for industrial lighting.
The DIM BAR can operate in two basic modes A & B
and one additional mode C.
Programming
The DIM BAR programming can be done by using the
Ecostreet 2 software and the powerline master
controller Ecobox 2 which is connected to a PC via USB
connection. Ecobox 2 modulates encoded instructions
into the supplying mains.
The DIM BAR then demodulates the signal, performs
the decoded instruction and stores the dimming
sequence into its memory. A successful programming
will be indicated by fluctuating amplitude of PWM
signal with a period of 1 second.
A. the DIM BAR receives instructions via powerlines
and adjusts PWM control signal in real time.
B. the DIM BAR dims lighting according to a sequence
saved in its memory.
C. the DIM BAR is programmed with a sequence via
powerlines as an additional function.
The DIM BAR does not contain a real-time clock, it has
an interval counter.
In case of stand-alone operation, the dimming
sequence is based on a middle point calculation of
lighting duration from ON to OFF. The middle point is
also adjusted based on time difference of the selected
country of use. It is calculated after the first
operation, and then checks the consistency of two
previous operations for adaptation.
Function A is superior to function B. If the
device receives an instruction through the
supply line, mode B turns off.

Powerline controllable and reprogrammable dimmer for LED drivers
Programming software
The programming software Ecostreet 2 enables creating sequences, which are then installed into DIM BAR
devices by using the powerline master Ecobox 2 connected to a PC. It also features an energy savings calculator
for predicting savings for a selected period with a display of sunrise and sunset according to an integrated
calendar. The sequence can contain up to 10 intensity changes in the range of 0 100%.
