Unable to dim with dimmer 2 Fibaro


joaoartur

Question

Hi

 

I installed a fibaro dimmer 2 with bypass 2.

I forced calibraton with bypass (parameter 13).

On the calibration process  the lights dimmed perfectly.

 

After that i can only turn the lights on and off. When i try to dimmer for example to 50% as soon as i release the roller it goes immediatly to 100%.

 

If i use instead with the same lights dimmer 1 with bypass 2  everything works just fine.

 

What could be wrong with dimmer 2?

 

Thank you

Hi @joaoartur, check you parameters.  Have a look at this recent thread for some pointers:

 

Also, based on your symptoms, check 35 (should be set to 1, calibrate only after first power on).

 

Let us know if you solve it?

  • Hi

     

    Thank you

     

    Parameter 14

    1 - Dimmer operates on auto-calibration settings

     

    Parameter 33 

    Load recognized as dimmable

     

    Parameter 20

    1 - toggle switch

     

    Parameter 26

    0 - 3-way switch function for S2 disabled

     

    Parameter 21

    was

    0 - 0xFF value is sent, which will set associated devices to their last saved state

    change to 

    1 - current Dimmer state is sent, which will synchronize brightness level of associated devices (other Dimmers for example)

     

    Parameter 33:

    was

    1 - Load recognized as non-dimmable

    i tried to change to

    0 - Load recognized as dimmable

     

    But after save the setting when i go there again i show 1 - Load recognized as non-dimmable

     

    I receive the error

     

     

    Load error280.1

    7 minutes ago

    Caution! No load connected - possibility of burnt out bulb.

     

    Since this is working just fine with dimmer 1 with bypass and when on calibrating the light are dimming just fine i don't know what is happening

    Parameter 30:

    0 - forced leading edge control

     

    Parameter 31

    0 - leading edge

     

    Thank you
