Frequently Asked Questions - GW90750 Gewiss

How to install the GW90750 dimmer?

Installation must be carried out by qualified personnel. Mount the device on a 35 mm DIN rail, connect the bus line (red to +, black to -) and the load to the screw terminals. Do not forget to disconnect the mains voltage before any connection.

What to do in case of overload?

In case of overload, the front LED lights up in solid red and the output is cut off. Eliminate the cause, then reset by pressing the front pushbutton or by switching the mains voltage off/on. During reset (5 s), the LED flashes red.

How to use the local pushbutton?

The pushbutton allows cyclical ON/OFF switching by adjusting brightness from 0 to 100% with each press. If a priority command is active, local commands are ignored. The behavior can be configured via ETS.

What types of lamps are compatible?

The dimmer supports incandescent lamps (40-500 W), halogen lamps with transformer (40-500 W), inductive loads (wound transformers) and capacitive loads (electronic transformers) up to 500 VA.

How to program the device with ETS?

Use the ETS software to configure all functions (switching, adjustment, scenes, etc.). The device is recognized via the KNX bus. Consult the Technical Manual for parameter details.

What is the meaning of the LEDs?

Status LED: off = load not controlled (OFF), green = load controlled (ON), solid red = overload, flashing yellow = mains voltage absent, flashing red = reset after overload. A red programming LED is also present.

How to clean the dimmer?

Use a dry cloth to clean the device. Do not use liquid or abrasive products.

What is the maximum permissible power?

The total permissible power is 40 to 500 VA (or W) depending on the load type. Consult the technical specifications for details.

Can I use a priority command?

Yes, the priority command (forcing) function allows imposing a specific brightness and blocking other commands. It can be activated via the KNX bus.

How to reset after an overload?

After eliminating the cause of overload, reset by pressing the front pushbutton or by switching the 230 V mains voltage off/on. The LED flashes red for about 5 seconds, then turns green if the overload is resolved.

Briefly

The universal dimmer actuator 500VA - DIN rail mounting allows you to command and adjust incandescent lamps, inductive loads (low voltage halogen lamps, via winding transformers) and capacitive loads (low voltage halogen lamps, via electronic transformers). The dimmer actuator is powered from the BUS line, and has a front LED to indicate the output status (LED not lit up when OFF, green when ON, red if the output is overloaded). The dimmer actuator is used to switch the connected load on and off, adjust the degree of light intensity, perform timed commands, priority commands and locking activation commands for forcing the output status, memorise and execute scenes, and manage the slave function so a master KNX device can control the light intensity. The various operating modes can be used simultaneously. The dimmer actuator is assembled on a DIN rail, inside electric boards or junction boxes.

Functions

The dimmer actuator is configured with the ETS software, to perform the following functions:

ON/OFF SWITCHCOVER

• Setting the degree of light intensity for the execution of the ON switchover command

RELATIVE LIGHT ADJUSTMENT

• Parameterisation of the maximum and minimum adjustment thresholds
• Parameterisation of the relative adjustment speeds between 0% and 50% , and between 55% and 100%

SCENES

-Memorising and activating 8 scenes (value O - 63)
- Enabling/disabling of scene learning from BUS

PRIORITY COMMAND (FORCING)

• Setting the degree of light intensity with forcing ON activation
• Setting the forcing status upon BUS voltage reset

TIMED SWITCHOVER (STAIR RAISER LIGHT)

• Parameterisation of light value during timing
• Setting the activation time
• Setting the pre-warning time
• Parameterisation of behaviour when a timed activation command is received with timing already active
• Setting the stair raiser light activation time from the BUS

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

LOCKOUT FUNCTION

• Parameterisation of the lockout activation value, behaviour when lockout is active, and behaviour when lockout is deactivated
• Setting the lockout object value upon download and upon BUS voltage reset

SLAVE MODE FOR CONTROL FROM BUS DEVICE

• Setting the monitoring time and dimmer behaviour in safe operating mode
• Parameterisation of the slave mode value upon download and upon voltage reset

LOGIC FUNCTION

• Logic operation AND/NAND/OR/NOR with command object and result of logic operation
• Logic operations AND/NAND/OR/NOR/XOR/XNOR up to 4 logic inputs
• Setting the NOT operation on the 4 inputs

For all the command objects, the following operations are possible:

• Setting the mode for reaching the required light intensity (via a ramp or jump to that value)
• Parameterisation of the ramp adjustment speed 0% - 100%
• Setting the delay for switch-on and switch-off

OTHER FUNCTIONS

• Parameterisation of the output behaviour upon failure and reset of BUS voltage
• Setting the transmission of information concerning the ON/OFF status and the current light intensity percentage value
• Setting the transmission of information concerning overloads
• Setting the transmission of information concerning the absence of a 230V voltage (with BUS voltage present)
• Setting the local button key operation

Status of the LED for output status signalling
OFF Load not piloted	(OFF or adjustment value 0%), and mains voltage present
Green	Load piloted (ON or adjustment value different from 0%), and mains voltage present
Red Output overload
Flashing yellow Mains voltage absent, and BUS voltage present
Flashing red Reset after overload (5 sec)

INSTALLATION

ATTENTION: the device must only be installed by qualified personnel, observing current regulations and the guidelines for KNX installations.

Recommendations for installing the KNX

1. The length of the BUS line between the dimmer actuator and the power supply unit must not exceed 350 metres.
2. The length of the BUS line between the dimmer actuator and the furthest KNX device must not exceed 700 metres.
3. To avoid unwanted signals and overvoltages, do not use ring circuits.
4. Keep a distance of at least 4mm between the individually insulated cables of the BUS line and those of the electricity line (figure C).
5. Do not damage the electrical continuity conductor of the shielding (figure D).

ATTENTION: the unused bus signal cables, and the electrical continuity conductor, must never touch any live elements or the earthing conductor!

Assembly on the DIN rail

Assemble the dimmer on a 35mm DIN rail in the following way (figure E):

1. Insert the upper device coupling in the DIN rail.
2. Rotate the device, then lock it in place on the DIN rail by means of the fixing tab.

Electric connections

ATTENTION: disconnect the mains voltage before connecting the device to the electricity supply!

• Figure B shows a diagram of the electrical connections.
• Connect the red wire of the BUS cable to the red clamp (+) of the terminal, and the black wire to the black clamp (-). Up to 4 BUS lines can be connected to the BUS terminal (same coloured wires on the same terminal) (figure F).
• Insulate the shield, the electrical continuity conductor, and the other white and yellow wires of the BUS cable (if a 4-conductor BUS cable is being used), that are not necessary (figure D).
• Insert the BUS clamp in the pins of the device. The correct connection direction is determined by the fixing guides. Insulate the BUS terminal with the special cover, that must be screwed onto the device. The cover guarantees the minimum separation distance of 4mm between the power cables and the BUS cables (figure G).
• Connect the load to the relevant screw terminals underneath the actuator, making sure the current limits specified in the Technical Data are not exceeded.
• Protect the dimmer by inserting a fuse with high breaking capacity (max. 2.5A) on the power supply line.

Using the local command push-button

The manual command push-button (figure A) allows the cyclical ON/OFF switchover, bringing the light intensity level from 0% to 100% and vice versa every time it is pressed (default setting). If a priority command is active, the local commands are not executed.

The behaviour of the local command push-button can be configured via ETS.

Overload management

Any possible overload is signalled by a fixed red light on the front LED. During the overload situation, the dimmer output is switched off and every command received from the BUS is ignored. Once the cause of the overload has been eliminated, you can restore normal operation and deactivate the overload signal in the following ways:

• via the front command push-button of the dimmer and commanding the output. The dimmer will assume the maximum light intensity value and, after about 5 seconds (if the overload has been eliminated), the status LED will switch on with a fixed green light. The front button key allows the dimmer to be commanded even in the event of an overload. During the reset operation (about 5 seconds), the front LED turns red and flashes;
• by disconnecting the 230V AC mains voltage (with the BUS voltage present). When the mains voltage is restored, you can send a command via the BUS or command the dimmer via the front push-button. Regardless of the command received, the dimmer will bring the load to the maximum light intensity value. After about 5 seconds (if the overload has been eliminated), the status LED will switch on with a fixed green light and the dimmer will execute the last command received. During the reset operation (about 5 seconds), the front LED turns red and flashes.

Maintenance

Use a dry cloth if cleaning is required.
