DIMMABLE POWER SUPPLY UNITS
Power supply units dimmable with 0/1–10V signal allow you to adjust the brightness from 0 to 100% using a 1–10V interface (100-kiloohm potentiometer)
or a 0–10V analogue signal.
0–10V and 1–10V are similar protocols used for dimming light: both systems use a voltage level to communicate with the power supply unit.
A 10V voltage corresponds to the highest brightness level; lower voltage levels will correspond to lower brightness. With voltage levels below 0.5V,
the product will switch off.
The reference standard for the 0–10V protocol is ANSI E1.3 Entertainment Technology – Lighting Control Systems. For the 1–10V protocol,
the reference standard is IEC60929 (annex E).
The fundamental difference between the two control systems is the direction of the current between the dimmer and the power supply unit: for the 0–10V (active)
system, the current is generated by the dimmer and then enters the power supply; voltages lower than 0.5V switch off the product. For the 1–10V (passive) system,
the current enters the dimmer, which regulates passively; normally a switch must be added to switch off the fixture.
