not energised). The LED changes to RED when the output is connected to the line input (the load
is energised).
GSWWDR30 Wall Dimmer Receiver
IV. As with other Sphere Receivers the GSWWDR30 can be set to a channel. It also has up, down and
centre on / off buttons that only control the load directly connected to it. Dimming commands from a
Controller will override settings made with these buttons.
Notes:
Switching non-dimmable lighting and other loads within dimming mode
I. The Relay Receiver allows switching on and off of non-dimmable lighting and small electrical devices
such as extractor fans.
II. To switch non-dimmable loads within dimming mode, select the channel to which the Relay Receiver
is assigned, and then press the up / down buttons to turn it on or off. Any setting above zero (with the
up button) will switch the load to ‘on’.
