※ 3 in 1 dimming function (for Blank-Type)
- Output constant current level can be adjusted by applying one of the three methodologies between DIM+ and DIM-:
0 ~ 10VDC, or 10V PWM signal or resistance. - Direct connecting to LEDs is suggested. It is not suitable with additional drivers. to be used
- Dimming source current from power supply: 100μA (typ.)
Applying additive 0 ~ 10VDC

- Additive Voltage
- “DO NOT connect “DIM- to -V”

- Output current (%)
- Dimming input: Additive voltage
Applying additive 10V PWM signal (frequency range 100Hz ~ 3KHz):

- Additive PWM signal
- “DO NOT connect “DIM- to -V”

- Output current (%)
- Duty cycle of additive 10V PWM signal dimming input
Applying additive resistance:

- Additive PWM signal
- “DO NOT connect “DIM- to -V”

- Output current (%)
- (N=driver quantity for synchronized dimming operation)
Dimming input: Additive resistance
Note :
- Min. dimming level is about 6% and the output current is not defined when 0%< Iout<6%.
- The output current could drop down to 0% when dimming input is about 0kΩ or 0Vdc, or 10V PWM signal with 0% duty cycle.
※ Smart timer dimming function (for Dxx-Type by User definition)
MEAN WELL Smart timer dimming primarily provides the adaptive proportion dimming profile for the output constant current level to perform up to 14 consecutive hours. 3 dimming profiles hereunder are defined accounting for the most frequently seen applications. If other options may be needed, please contact MEAN WELL for details.
Ex :
D01-Type: the profile recommended for residential lighting

- Dimming Level(%)
- Operating Time(HH:MM)
Set up for D01-Type in Smart timer dimming software program:
T1 | T2 | T3 | T4 | |
TIME** | 06:00 | 07:00 | 11:00 | — |
LEVEL** | 100% | 70% | 50% | 70% |
**: TIME matches Operating Time in the diagram whereas LEVEL matches Dimming Level.
Example: If a residential lighting application adopts D01-Type, when turning on the power supply at 6:00pm, for instance:
[1] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 100% starting from 6:00pm.
[2] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 70% in turn, starting from 0:00am, which is 06:00 after the power supply turns on.
[3] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 50% in turn, starting from 1:00am, which is 07:00 after the power supply turns on.
[4] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 70% in turn, starting from 5:00am, which is 11:00 after the power supply turns on.
The constant current level remains till 8:00am, which is 14:00 after the power supply turns on.
Ex:
D02-Type: the profile recommended for street lighting

- Dimming Level(%)
- Operating Time(HH:MM)
Set up for D02-Type in Smart timer dimming software program:
T1 | T2 | T3 | T4 | T5 | |
| TIME** | 01:00 | 03:00 | 08:00 | 11:00 | — |
| LEVEL** | 50% | 80% | 100% | 60% | 80% |
**: TIME matches Operating Time in the diagram whereas LEVEL matches Dimming Level.
Example: If a street lighting application adopts D02-Type, when turning on the power supply at 5:00pm, for instance:
[1] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 50% starting from 5:00pm.
[2] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 80% in turn, starting from 6:00pm, which is 01:00 after the power supply turns on.
[3] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 100% in turn, starting from 8:00pm, which is 03:00 after the power supply turns on.
[4] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 60% in turn, starting from 1:00am, which is 08:00 after the power supply turns on.
[5] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 80% in turn, starting from 4:00am, which is 11:00 after the power supply turns on. The constant current level remains till 6:30am, which is 14:00 after the power supply turns on.
Ex:
D03-Type: the profile recommended for tunnel lighting

- Dimming Level(%)
- Operating Time(HH:MM)
Set up for D03-Type in Smart timer dimming software program:
T1 | T2 | T3 | T4 | |
| TIME** | 18:00 | 20:00 | 24:00 | 04:00 |
| LEVEL** | 100% | 75% | 50% | 25% |
**: TIME matches Operating Time in the diagram whereas LEVEL matches Dimming Level.
Example: If a tunnel lighting application adopts D03-Type, when turning on the power supply at 4:30pm, for instance:
[1] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 70% starting from 4:30pm.
[2] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 100% in turn, starting from 6:00pm, which is 01:30 after the power supply turns on.
[3] The power supply will switch to the constant current level at 70% in turn, starting from 5:00am, which is 11:00 after the power supply turns on.
The constant current level remains till 6:30am, which is 14:00 after the power supply turns on.
※ DALI interface(primary side; for DA-Type)
