Product Description

Remotely controlled light dimming module is designed to work with various types of light sources. It may be connected to two-wire or three wire configuration so it can operate with or without neutral lead. Dimmer-Control can switch or dim connected light source either through radio waves or through the wall switch connected directly to it. New Dimmer-Control is equipped with an algorithm of smart light source detection which makes configuration easier and ensures high compatibility of the device. It may be used as a switch with non-dimmable light sources (in 3-wire connection).
