SWITCH DIMMER Part No S1111111 Description: Installing a Budderfly adapter transforms your building’s existing wiring into the “Budderfly Open Network” and allows the adapter to monitor energy consumption and communicate the data to a facility controller. The Budderfly Switch Dimmer is a dual band device. It communicates using both Powerline and wireless RF. Thus there is no need for rewiring. Using the Budderfly software, it is possible to visualize consumption data and manage each individual adapter. As a component of the Budderfly system, the Budderfly Switch Dimmer is designed to work with all other Budderfly adapters. It is a plug-and-play replacement for your existing switch dimmer, and it provides multiple dimming techniques. Once installed, The Budderfly Switch Dimmer also acts as a repeater to extend the range of the network and increase its efficiency. Installation: 1. From the electrical panel board, turn off the circuit power feeding the switch dimmer. 2. Remove the wall plate. Unscrew the old switch dimmer and pull it out from the junction box. 3. Unscrew the wires from the terminal blocks on the Budderfly switch dimmer. 4. Prepare the wires by striping the insulation according to the strip gage placed on the back of the switch dimmer package. The stripped copper should be around 6.5 mm long. 5. Refer to the connection diagrams below in order to connect the switch dimmer. The connection will change depending on the load. 6. After connecting all the wires, ensure that all the screws on the terminal block are firmly tightened and that there is no exposed copper. 7. Place the switch dimmer in the junction box. Screw the switch dimmer into place. 8. Reinstall the wall plate. 9. From the electrical panel board, turn on the circuit power feeding the switch dimmer. 10. Add the device address to the Budderfly software.

Features: - Eight dimming levels indicated with LED lights - Supports multiple dimming techniques. - Ability to resume from previous dimming level - Ability to create a group of devices - Ability to monitor power consumption Remote Control: o All the functions of the switch dimmer can be controlled remotely using the Budderfly Software o The Budderfly Software will inform you if the action was successful Device Grouping: o Using the Budderfly software, it is possible to create a Group of Switch Dimmers. o Devices that are member of the same group can be controlled with a single click from the Budderlfy Applictaion Power consumption: o The Budderfly Switch Dimmer will measure the current, the voltage and the power of the connected load and it will store the consumed energy. o The data can be accessed any time thru the Budderfly software. The user can generate reports, monitor the consumption or check expenses. Reset: If the device stops responding, it can be restarted by pushing the Reset Button. A non-metallic pin should be used to push the reset button. None of the stored parameters will be affected. 1- Dimming Level LEDs: These LEDs show the current dimming level from 1 to 8. Color : Green 2- Power LED: This led will turn on when the device is on. Color : Red 3- Group LED: This led will turn on when the device joins a group. Color: Green. 4- Reset Button: If the device stops responding, it can be restarted using this button. A non metallic pin must be used to push the reset button. None of the stored parameters will be affected 5- Bottom Rocker: A single tap on this button will turn the device off saving the current diming level. A Tap and Hold on this button will cycle the light level down. 6- Top Rocker: A single tap on this button will turn the device on and resume the previous dimming level. A Tap and Hold on this button will cycle the light level up. “Power Cut‐Off” mode: ‐ The Budderfly dimmers have the ability to completely disconnect the power from the load. ‐ Pressing the top of the rocker for 15 seconds will activate the “Power Cut‐off” feature; the load will be turned off. ‐ The Power LED will start blinking to indicate that the load is disconnected and the dimmer is in the Power Cut‐off mode. ‐ When the “Power Cut‐off” mode is activated, the dimmer cannot be turned on through software and cannot be turned on physically. ‐ Pressing the bottom of the rocker for 15 seconds will de‐activate the “Power Cutoff” mode, and the device will go back to the normal state. Communication: The Budderfly Switch Dimmer is a dual band device. It communicates with the “Facility Controller” using both Powerline and wireless RF. The following commands are supported :  Direct Turn On/Off command: The load will be switched on or off  Direct Turn On level “X”: The load will be switched on to the dimming level specified “X”.  Dim One Level Up : The load will be dimmed one level  Dim One Level Down: The load will be brightened one level  Join/Disjoin group “X”: The device will Join/Disjoin the group “X”. Each dimmer can be member of several groups at the same time.  Group Turn On/Off: All Budderfly Switch Dimmers that are members of the same group can be controlled remotely with one click.  Direct RTC synchronization: The Budderfly Switch Dimmer can receive a command to synchronize its “Real Time Clock”  Get Actual Measurement: When the Budderfly Switch Dimmer receives a “Get Measurement” command, it will send back to the facility controller a string of data that contains: - The Current in Amps “A”. - The Power in Watt “W”. - A Timestamp.  Get Stored Measurement: The Budderfly Dimmer Switch will send back to the Facility Controller the stored electrical measurements.  Direct Reset Commands: The Budderfly Dimmer Switch can receive 3 types of reset commands: - Hard Reset: This command will restart the device without affecting any stored parameter. - Data Reset: This command will erase all the measurement and RTC data stored in the non-volatile memory. - Group Reset: This command will remove the device from all joined groups.  Group Reset Commands: The above reset commands can be directed to a group of devices instead of just one device. CAUTION  Never use a metallic pin to press the reset button. CAUTION When replacing the Bulbs, make sure to enable the “Power Cut‐off” mode. If the power LED does not start blinking, please consult a qualified electrician.
