Dimmer with LED's

[alutke 0]

Installed in a circuit 4 LED bulbs dimmable 7W, 28W added reach through the minimum of 25W. Usually work related, being dimmed, but when switched off flashers seem approximately to a 5% light, every second or so. Any tips?

two options

try adding bypass or try increasing steering interval in steps of 5

i had to raise mine to about 140 i think

"steering interval" Where can I change this? I read something about the parameter 20 as well .. I tried the Bypass, but gave the same ..

I think steering interval is parameter 20, correct?

[Guest Kuuno]

yes! i checked mine is set to 133

For LEDs it's usually best to set parameter 20 to some where between 134 and 140.

134 and 135 seems to be the sweet spot for many LEDs.

Also check if you've set them up for dimming or non-dimming.

hmm ok

I will try my best lamps. Thank you all.

alutke,

As monions, says - please try to modificate parameter 20 - if any questions please feel free to ask!

I tried to modify the parameter 20, tried to leave as indicated, between 134 and 140, but it looks like it got worse, not dimerize more and did not care and hung correctly, was reducing the parameter and apparently the problem was better, but I reached the limit of 100 in parameter 20, the lowest possible, and yet, when they switch off the lights are flashing, but weak flash. I also tried to increase the maximum limit of the parameter, and it got worse. It seems that when you lower the better in my case, but it was not solved. My reach 28W bulbs in the circuit, I thought there would be no need for the Bypass, but I will try to install it again.

The bypass should only be installed in parallel to the circuit, or is there some other way?

Could be connected in parallel with only one of the 4 bulbs or not, even if only in the whole circuit?

But it seems that if we increase consumption in my circuit the problem is solved. For example, put 3 LEDs and incandescent lamps, usually works if they put the 4 LEDs do not turn off properly, rather than flash went off.
