INTRODUCTION
This bulletin provides instructions for installing Square D Clipsal Eight-Channel DIN-Rail Dimmers, which are C-Bus-controlled output units suitable for use with incandescent lighting or compatible low-voltage lighting. These dimmer units automatically compensate for voltage and frequency fluctuations and employ advanced phase-control techniques to reduce flicker and increase lamp life. Each dimmer channel can independently control loads of 2 A @ 120 V AC. As part of a channel group (channels 14 or 58), a channel also can carry loads up to 3 A @ 120 V AC, so long as the load rating per channel group is no greater than 8 A. At 12M wide (1M = 0.69 in. [17.5 mm]), the dimmers are designed for mounting in suitable DIN-style enclosures, such as the Clipsal 36M enclosure. Built-in RJ-45 connectors enable quick connection to the C-Bus network and interconnection of units. The units can be configured by using Learn mode or the C-Bus Toolkit software. These dimmer units can be ordered with an internal C-Bus network power supply. When connected to an external power source, units incorporating the C-Bus power supply (catalog number SLC5508TD2A) can support a number of other C-Bus units by providing up to 200 mA to the network. The standard dimmer units (catalog number SLC5508TD2AP) do not provide power to the network, even when they are connected to an external electrical power source. Before You Begin Before installing an eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer, verify that your order is complete by comparing the contents of the package with the appropriate items in the table below. Also verify that the catalog number on the box label matches your order. Table 1: Contents of the Box

Thermal Shutdown An internal temperature sensor helps protect the unit from overheating by monitoring the units internal operating temperature. In the event there is an over-temperature condition, meaning the temperature has exceeded approximately 158F (70C), all channels will turn off (i.e., a thermal shutdown will occur). High temperatures are most likely to occur when the dimmer unit is operating under heavy load conditions and there is insufficient air ventilation. In the event of a thermal shutdown, channel levels will be automatically restored after the over-temperature condition has been resolved and the unit has cooled. Overrides The eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer offers Local Override and Remote Override options (see figure DIN-Rail Dimmer Override Options). Figure 1: DIN-Rail Dimmer Override Options
KEY: A. Local Override/Channel Control buttons B. Remote Override/C-Bus connections
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH Overrides cannot be locked down and must not be used as the method to turn off the power before working on or inside the equipmentwhen overrides are used the power can be restored without warning. Turn off all electrical power supplying this equipment before working on or inside the equipment.
Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that power is off. Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
63249-420-245A1 01/2007
Local Override/Channel Control Buttons Eight Local Override/Channel Control buttons on the front of the unit provide a temporary way to change the state of each channel at the unit (this change is often referred to as "toggling" the channel or unit "locally"). Each button will light when its respective channel is ON. By default, the Local Override buttons work opposite and in conjunction with C-Bus input units, with the most recent command taking precedence (see NOTE below). For example, if a keypad button is ON, pressing the Local Override button for that same channel will turn OFF the keypad button and the channel. At the same time, the Unit status indicator will start to flash. Flashing will continue until the Local Override has been turned off, either by giving the same Local Override button a "Double Press" or by pressing a key on the affected input unit. See the table, "Operation of the Local Override Buttons," for an operational summary. NOTE: By default, C-Bus commands will "override" changes to the operating state that have been made by pressing the Local Override buttons. The C-Bus command override can be disabled by using the C-Bus Toolkit software. For more information about command precedence, see the section "Operating Mode Priorities." Table 2: Operation of the Local Override Buttons
Type of Press on Local Override Button
Short press Double press (two short presses within 2 seconds) Long press (a press longer than 2 seconds on any Local Override button)
Function
Changes state of ("toggles") that channel/unit, e.g., from OFF to ON When a channel or unit is in Local Override mode, a double press on the Local Override button will return it to control by the C-Bus network When one or more channels or units are in Local Override mode, a long press will return them ALL to control by the C-Bus network
Remote Overrides The eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer has provisions for connecting two remote switches that provide Remote Override ON and OFF functions. The remote inputs are activated when the switch mechanism contact closes. NOTE: External voltage sources are not required and MUST NOT be connected to either of the dimmer's Remote Override inputs.
63249-420-245A1 01/2007
Activation of a remote override input sets all dimmer channels either ON or OFF accordingly. Remote OFF has priority if Remote ON and Remote OFF functions are activated simultaneously (see the table Operating Mode Hierarchy). The remote switches can be located up to 3280 ft (1000 m) from the dimmer unit. Multiple switches can be connected in parallel to the same remote input, allowing remote control of the dimmer from different locations by using any type of cable (for wiring examples, see section Remote Override Connections). Similarly, a single switch can be used to remotely control up to 30 different DIN-rail dimmers within the same C-Bus network. NOTE: C-Bus is a balanced network, so C-Bus positive (+) must be present at any point where C-Bus negative () is taken. Therefore both network conductors [C-Bus positive (+) and C-Bus negative ()] must be looped through all Remote Override input switches on the network. Status Indicators On the front of the eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer are two sets of status indicators: the Unit and C-Bus status indicator LEDs and the eight illuminated Local Override (Channel Control) buttons (see figure "Eight-Channel DIN-Rail Dimmer Status Indicators"). Unitshows the status of the individual unit C-Busshows the status of the C-Bus network at this unit Local Override/Channel buttonsshow the status of the individual channels
63249-420-245A1 01/2007
NOTE: The Unit and C-Bus indicators do not function when standalone configuration is being performed on a dimmer unit that is powered only by the C-Bus network. Unit The Unit status indicator LED shows the status of the individual unit. The LED displays a continuous green light (ON) when the unit is connected to a properly operating C-Bus network and an electrical (AC) power source. When the LED flashes, it indicates that one of the four channels has been toggled (using a Local Override button or a Remote Override) into a state different from that set through the C-Bus network (for more information, see the section "Overrides"). The LED displays no light when there is no electrical power or standalone configuration is being performed on the unit. Table 3: Unit Status Indicator Definitions

Local Override/Channel A Local Override/Channel button will be illuminated when its channel is ON. The section Local Override/Channel Control Buttons explains their uses. Operating Mode Priorities In the event a dimmer overheats, the network automatically turns OFF loads on all channels. In addition to the automated system controls, there are three ways to manually control loads that are connected to an eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer: Press a button on a C-Bus input unit (e.g., a keypad button, a touch screen) Activate (press) any of the Local Override buttons Use the Remote Overrides
NOTE: By default, if any channel is in Local Override mode and a C-Bus command is received for that channel, the C-Bus command state will be imposed. This feature can be disabled in the C-Bus Toolkit software (see section Local Override Buttons). The table "Operating Mode Hierarchy" outlines the different operating modes and their general precedence. Table 5: Operating Mode Hierarchy

Power-Up Load Status All C-Bus units have onboard non-volatile memory that stores the operating state of the unit in the event of a power outage. When power is restored, the unit will carry out a diagnostic for about five seconds. The dimmer loads will remain OFF while the unit restores the channels to their previous states, according to the units recovery settings. The load status will be displayed on the channels' status indicator LEDs. Eight-Channel DIN-Rail Dimmer Compatibilities The DIN-rail dimmers can dim the following types of lighting loads. Resistive loads such as incandescent lighting and halogen 110120 V lamps Inductive loads such as iron-core transformers for low-voltage lighting Loads compatible with phase control, such as low-voltage lighting with electronic transformers. The number of electronic transformer loads that can be connected to a channel depends on the transformer model that is used. Limit the capacitance to 300 nF per output channel

The number of electronic transformer loads that can be connected to a channel depends on the transformer model that is used. Limit the capacitance to 300 nF per output channel.
Standalone Configuration The eight-channel DIN-Rail dimmer draws 18 mA from the C-Bus network when it is not connected to an external power source. This 18 mA makes it possible to configure the unit without a connection to an external power source.
12
63249-420-245A1 01/2007
Requirements for configuring a unit without using an external power source include connection to an operational C-Bus network that is capable of supporting one or more extra C-Bus units (18 mA current required per dimmer). For more information about configuration requirements, see "Configuration" in the "Installation" section. C-Bus System Clock Eight-channel DIN-rail dimmers incorporate a software-selectable C-Bus System Clock, which synchronizes data communications waveforms on the C-Bus network. Typically the clock is disabled: Only one active clock is required for successful C-Bus network communications, and a maximum of three C-Bus units per network should have the clock circuitry enabled. If a system clock is required, it can be enabled through the C-Bus Toolkit software. Network Burden DIN-rail dimmers incorporate a software-selectable network burden that can be enabled in the event the network does not yet have a burden. One hardware or software network burden is required for network termination and biasing, but only one network burden should be installed per network. To determine if one must be installed for a network, consult the C-Bus Toolkit software. To enable the software-selectable network burden, use the C-Bus Toolkit software to set the unit address to 001.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
This section contains important safety precautions that must be followed before attempting to install or maintain electrical equipment. Carefully read and follow the safety precautions below.
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH This equipment must be installed and serviced by qualified electrical personnel. Apply appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and follow safe electrical work practices. See NFPA 70E. Turn off all electrical power supplying this equipment before working on or inside the equipment. Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that power is off.
Replace all devices, doors, and covers before turning on power to this equipment. Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

63249-420-245A1 01/2007
INSTALLATION
Follow the procedures in this section to mount the eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer units and to make electrical and C-Bus network wiring connections. Network Considerations Determine the total network current load and verify that there will be adequate C-Bus power to support all the connected devices. Also verify that the amount of available power is no more than 2 A. Generally, one physical C-Bus network can have a maximum of 10 DIN-rail units that incorporate a C-Bus power supply or 100 DIN-Rail units that do not. However, these limits will be affected by the design of the network, including the specific number and types of units on it. The eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer units draw 18 mA from the C-Bus network when they do not have an external electrical power source. When the units have external power, they draw no current from the C-Bus network. Additionally, when connected to an external power source, dimmer units that incorporate a C-Bus network power supply can provide up to 200 mA to the C-Bus network. Before an eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer can operate on the C-Bus network, the C-Bus Toolkit software must be used to assign a unique identification (unit address) and mode of operation on the network. When the units are being installed as part of a large or complex network, it is most efficient to perform the basic configuration before the units are physically installed. However, the units can be configured before or after physical installation. Prerequisites The following components are typically required to configure an eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer unit. (Specific items and product numbers can vary according to the network and type of C-Bus unit.)

63249-420-245A1 01/2007
Identifying the C-Bus Units and Their Locations The location of each C-Bus unit must be tracked. Two recommended methods are given below, one for when the units are configured before installation (see section Labeling the C-Bus Units), the other for when the units are configured after installation (see section Recording Each Units Location). Labeling the C-Bus Units When C-Bus units are configured before physical installation, it is important to label them to indicate where they are to be placed. One method for doing this would be to write each units address directly on it. NOTE: Verify that each configured unit has been marked to indicate where it should be placed in an enclosure or a building or site. Recording Each Unit's Location In order to track C-Bus units that will be configured after physical installation, they must be identified and their location must be recorded at the time they are installed. NOTE: If a unit has already been configured and assigned a location on a site map, it is not necessary to make another record of its location.
HAZARD OF UNEXPECTED OR IMPROPER SYSTEM BEHAVIOR Properly record the physical location of each unit using the liftand-peel label provided on the box and a site plan or location log.
Retain location records and provide them to the person(s) responsible for configuring and commissioning the network. Failure to follow these instructions can result in unexpected or improper system behavior. Before installing a unit, use the following guidelines to record its location. Recording each unit's location is required for configuration with the C-Bus Toolkit software.
16
63249-420-245A1 01/2007
Each unit is identified by a unique serial number found on the box label (see the figure Box Label with Lift-and-Peel Section). The serial number provides important information for recording a unit's location. Figure 3: Box Label with Lift-and-Peel Section
KEY: A. Serial number B. Bar code C. Lift-and-peel section
The box label also has a bar code that can be read by an infrared scanner and used for a record of a specific units location. A liftand-peel section of the box label duplicates the box labels information (see Box Label with Lift-and-Peel Section diagram). To record the location of a unit, remove the lift-and-peel section from the box label and attach it to a site plan or other document. The lift-and-peel section now provides a record of the physical location where that unit is installed. When installing multiple units of one kind in an area or enclosure, such as six four-channel DIN dimmers in an enclosure, verify that the document or site plan indicates the relative position of each specific unit.
17
63249-420-245A1 01/2007
Mounting DIN-Rail Units onto the DIN Rail The DIN-rail units are designed to be installed onto a standard 1.38 in. (35 mm) DIN rail. To mount (i.e., attach) the dimmer unit, hook it onto the top of the DIN rail. Swing the bottom of the unit down until it clicks into place.
Removing DIN-Rail Units from the DIN Rail Use a small flat-blade screwdriver to pull either the upper or lower slide release out and disengage the unit from the DIN rail. Figure 5: Removing the Unit from the DIN Rail

Electrical Wiring Connections Follow the safety precautions and guidelines for making electrical connections that are given in this section.
HAZARD OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, EXPLOSION, OR ARC FLASH Turn off all electrical power supplying this equipment before working on or inside the equipment. Always use a properly rated voltage sensing device to confirm that power is off.
Replace all devices, doors, and covers before turning on power to this equipment. Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.
SHORTING DIMMER OUTPUTS CAN RESULT IN EQUIPMENT DAMAGE Turn off power before servicing this unit or a connected load. Do not short the dimmer outputs.
19
63249-420-245A1 01/2007
Wiring Guidelines Follow the guidelines below when working with DIN-rail dimmers. The unit can handle up to eight channels of dimmed loads connected according to the guidelines below. Consider the total current consumption when designing the power feed and selecting the cables. Also verify that the load supply has been protected by an appropriately rated circuit breaker. Verify that the power supplying the system is turned OFF before handling electrical power conductors. Each dimmer channel can independently control loads of 2 A @ 120 V AC. Additionally, the eight channels are split into two groups, channels 14 and channels 58. Any channel in a group can carry loads up to 3 A @ 120 V AC, so long as the total load rating per channel group is no greater than 8 A. Observe national and local electrical codes. Follow the wiring diagram shown in the figure "Electrical Wiring Connections for the Eight-Channel DIN-Rail Dimmer. Use copper wire only, one #12 or two #1416 AWG (3.1 mm1.3 mm). Verify the number and types of units that can be connected to this network (see section Network Considerations). Insert the rubber terminal plugs into any unused RJ-45 ports to prevent wire cuttings and other debris from entering the unit. The recommended torque for tightening the line- and load-voltage terminal screws is 5 lb-inch (0.56 Nm). Do not exceed this torque. Verify that electrical power conductors are separated from the C-Bus network cable and all other Class 2 conductors: Route the wiring to maintain a minimum separation or separate the wires by barriers. Consult your electrical code for local requirements. Verify that incoming electrical power lines are held in place according to local regulations, for example, using cable ties to attach power lines to an enclosure.
20
63249-420-245A1 01/2007
Use the same phase to wire the Control and Dimmer Output circuits of the unit. Power coming in to the Control and Dimmer Output circuits is not internally connected (see figure Wiring Connections for the Eight-Channel DIN-Rail Dimmer). Do not Megger test C-Bus data cabling or terminals (see section Megger Testing Guidelines).
Connecting the Dimmer to the C-Bus Network The eight-channel DIN-rail dimmer unit is connected to the C-Bus network through one of the RJ-45 sockets (see the figure Connecting to the C-Bus Network). Use Category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) data cable and an appropriately wired RJ-45 connector to make the connection (see figure C-Bus Wiring Connections and table C-Bus Cable Conductor Assignments). NOTE: The C-Bus connection is polarity sensitive.
21
63249-420-245A1 01/2007
A Cat 5 UTP patch cord is included with the unit to facilitate easy interconnection of units. Always verify that the network current load and available power are within limits (see the section Network Considerations) before adding units to the network. Prevent wire clippings and other debris from entering the dimmer unit by inserting a rubber RJ-45 terminal plug into any unused ports. Figure 8: C-Bus Wiring Connections

Remote Override Connections The C-Bus connectors have extra pairs of conductors (see the figure C-Bus Wiring Connections and the table C-Bus Cable Conductor Assignments) that can be used to enable Remote Overrides (ON/OFF) that will operate without using the C-Bus network, as is discussed in the section Remote Overrides. The Remote Override connections are optional, but it is recommended that they be maintained for correct operation of these services across the C-Bus network. The Remote Override (ON/OFF) services can be disabled by using the C-Bus Toolkit software. NOTE: C-Bus is a balanced network, so C-Bus positive (+) must be present at any point where C-Bus negative () is taken. Therefore both network conductors [C-Bus positive (+) and C-Bus negative ()] must be looped through all Remote Override input switches on the network. The figure "Wiring for Remote Overrides" shows how one or more switches can be connected in parallel on any one network. If connecting a Remote ON switch, use the green and greenwhite conductors; if connecting a Remote OFF switch, use the brown and brownwhite conductors. Remote Overrides are triggered by connecting the relevant conductors to C-Bus negative (see the table C-Bus Cable Conductor Assignments). Figure 9: Wiring for Remote Overrides

Megger Testing Guidelines Do not Megger test C-Bus data cabling or terminals. Megger testing of data cabling or terminals can degrade the performance of the C-Bus network. It will not harm the C-Bus units if electrical power terminals only are Megger tested. But because C-Bus units contain electronic components, the Megger readings will not be correct. To obtain valid readings, disconnect the power lines from the C-Bus units.
HAZARD OF C-BUS NETWORK PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION Do not Megger test C-Bus data cabling or terminals as it can degrade the performance of the C-Bus network. Failure to follow this instruction will result in damage to the C-Bus network.
