  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.

CAUTION  If you are not sure about any of the steps above, please consult a certified electrician for the installation
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.
