EAE UD106 KNX Universal Dimmer Actuator: 6-Channel Phase Dimming with Advanced Protection
The EAE UD106 Universal Dimmer Actuator is a highly robust solution for professional KNX installations, designed exclusively for phase dimming control. This module features 6 independent channels, each fully programmable via ETS5 or higher, offering flexible light level control for a variety of dimmable incandescent, halogen, and LED loads.
The UD106 excels in system reliability and diagnostics. It incorporates detailed Electrical Measurements (Voltage) and comprehensive Error Detection for each channel. This advanced monitoring safeguards the installation against critical faults like Short-Circuit, Over-current, Over-voltage, Under-voltage, and Over-heating, with all errors reported back to the KNX bus.
For high-power loads, the module supports 3 channel grouping features, allowing outputs to be merged. It also includes a manual operation feature via push buttons on the enclosure for easy testing and commissioning.
1. Key Features and Advanced Protection
The EAE UD106 Dimmer Actuator provides a wide array of programmable functions, processed according to a priority order defined in the ETS configuration.
Dimming and Flexibility:
- Dimming Type: Phase Dimming only (supports both leading and trailing edge depending on configuration).
- Channel Capacity: 6 independent channels for flexible control.
- Channel Grouping: Supports 3 channel grouping features for merging outputs to handle higher power requirements.
- Manual Control: Provides a manual operation feature using push buttons on the device enclosure for testing and override.
Monitoring and Safety:
- Comprehensive Error Detection: Advanced monitoring for faults including Load Error, Short-Circuit, Over-current, Over-voltage, Under-voltage, and Over-heating.
- Electrical Measurements: Real-time monitoring of the system Voltage is available on the KNX bus.
- System Recovery: Configurable behaviour can be set via ETS for status after bus voltage failure and return.
Automation Functions:
The following functions can be used separately or together on each channel:
- Staircase Lighting: Built-in timer function for automated communal lighting.
- Scene Function: Seamless integration into lighting scenes for complex scenarios.
- Forced Operation: Enables an override state for emergency or special purpose lighting, with priority over other functions.
