Possible Indication

Possible Causes

Solution

Reduced brightness observed in the dimmer channel outputs

Channel Indicator: Slow Flash, Yellow.

  • Channel is operating at reduced setting due to over temperature condition.

  • Normally due to excessive load and/or inadequate ventilation and/or high operating temperature.

  • Reduce the load on the channel and/or total the load on the unit.

  • Improve enclosure ventilation to reduce the temperature of the enclosure.

Dimmer Channel does not work

Channel Indicator: Fast Flash, Yellow.

  • Channel shutdown due to over temperature condition.

  • Normally due to excessive load and/or inadequate ventilation.

Channel Indicator: Fast Flash, Red.

  • Channel shutdown due to over current.

  • Normally due to excessive inrush or load/wiring fault (short circuit).

Check the wiring, rectify the issue and then turn on the dimmer to restore it to its normal operating state.

  1. Deactivate Remote Off override.

  2. Check C-Bus network wiring for shorts from Remote Off pairs (Brown and Brown/White) to the C-Bus Negative pairs (Orange/White and Blue/White).

Unit indicator: Blinking

Channel indicators: All On

  1. Remote On override is activated intentionally.

  2. Remote On override is activated due to a wiring fault in the C-Bus cable.

  1. Deactivate Remote On override.

  2. Check C-Bus network wiring for shorts from Remote On pairs (Green and Green/White) to the C-Bus Negative pairs (Orange/White and Blue/White).

Cannot scan the unit on the C-Bus network

Not applicable

Unit is in bootloader state.

Cycle the power on the unit to exit bootloader.

Unit indicator: Off

No mains Power Supply.

Check there is mains power to the unit.

C-Bus indicator: Off

C-Bus cable not connected.

Check that the C-Bus cable is terminated correctly and connected properly.

C-Bus indicator: Solid Red

No C-Bus clock detected.

Enable C-Bus system clock generator.

Channel does not respond to C-Bus Commands

Channel indicator: Solid Red

  1. Channel Offline due to invalid configuration.

  2. Channel offline due to incompatible firmware version.

  1. Re-deploy the configuration of the unit using the latest version of SpaceLogic C-Bus Commission software.

  2. Perform firmware update using SpaceLogic C-Bus Commission.

Unexpected Indicator Flashing

Unit indicator: Slow Flash, Red/Yellow

Internal temperature has exceeded over-temperature threshold (Power Supply currently disabled).

Improve enclosure ventilation to reduce ambient temperature.

Unit indicator: Slow Flash, Red/Green

Internal temperature has exceeded over-temperature threshold (Power Supply currently enabled).

Improve enclosure ventilation to reduce ambient temperature Consider disabling the C-Bus Power Supply in this unit and enabling it in a unit where the ambient temperature may be lower (for example a unit lower in the switchboard).

Cannot change the C-Bus Power Supply state from the front panel

Not applicable

Front panel Power Supply toggle feature has been disabled by the System Integrator.

Re-enable feature using SpaceLogic C-Bus Commission software.

Cannot enable the C-Bus system clock from the front panel

Not applicable

Front panel system clock toggle feature has disabled by the System Integrator.

Re-enable feature using SpaceLogic C-Bus Commission software.

No C-Bus Power

Unit indicator: Off

No mains .

Check mains voltage.

Not applicable

C-Bus cable not connected.

Check C-Bus cable.

Not applicable

Jumper link not fitted for 110 V.

Check the jumper is fitted if using a 110 V supply.

Low C-Bus Voltage

C-Bus indicator: Steady Flash

Overload on the network.

Enable C-Bus Power Supply in additional units or split network if 2000 mA limit has been reached.

C-Bus indicator: Short Flash

  1. Low mains voltage.

  2. Voltage drop over long distance of cable run.

  1. Advise to check mains voltage.

  2. Enable C-Bus Power Supply in this unit.

The lights connected to the output are flickering

Not applicable

The default load profile might not be suitable for this light.

Customize the load profile and dimming curve to achieve the desired dimming outcome.

Lights can be non-dimmable light sources.

Ensure the load that is connected to the dimmer is a dimmable load.

If it occurs at specific times, usually in the evening, there maybe ripple signalling on the grid.

Choose a different type of lamp which is less affected by ripple, or install a ripple filter.

It is difficult to set the brightness level at the bottom or top end of the dimming

Not applicable

The default 1:1 dimming curve may not be suitable for the loads profile.

Customize the load profile and dimming curve to achieve the desired dimming outcome.

Lights flashes brightly at start up

Not applicable

The default load profile is not suitable for the load or incorrect setting for Kick-start.

  • Customize the default load profile with minimum and maximum brightness to make the lighting behavior suitable with the load.

  • Ensure there is no incorrectly configured Kick-Start parameter set.

The lights do not turn on at lower brightness level set by C-Bus

Not applicable

The default load profile is not suitable for the load.

  • Customize the default load profile with minimum and maximum brightness to make the lighting behavior suitable with the load.

  • Consider configuring Kick-Start.

Unit does not work after firmware update

Not applicable

Interruption during firmware update.

  • Check the condition of the USB communication cable used between the laptop and the device and ensure good quality cable is used for firmware update.

  • Try a shorter cable.

  • Ensure update process is not interrupted, and wait for software to confirm process is complete before removing the cable.

  • Check the USB cable connection and ensure it is fully inserted in the USB-C connector.

  • If instructed by the software perform an extra-short press the HR reset button for recovery purposes.
