Trinity DIM On-Off Module

• Provides a simple, push-button ON/OFF switching solution designed specifically for use with a separate dimmer regulator.
• Functions as the user interface for an advanced dimming system, offering a clean, minimalist alternative to a standard rotary dimmer.
• Designed as a standalone component that clips securely into any compatible Trinity yoke, enabling fully customized control panels.
• Features a responsive, momentary push-button action that sends a signal to the dimming regulator to turn lights on, off, or initiate dimming.
• Allows for the creation of sophisticated, multi-point dimming controls while maintaining the sleek, uniform aesthetic of the Trinity range.
• Engineered for seamless integration with leading dimmer regulators, providing a versatile and high-performance lighting control solution.

Features

• Momentary Push-Button Action: The switch provides a momentary pulse, designed to signal a separate electronic dimmer regulator.
• ON/OFF & Dimming Control: A short press toggles the lights on and off. A long press initiates the dimming or brightening ramp.
• Modular Component Design: A compact, self-contained push-button switch designed to be clipped into any standard aperture in the Trinity range of yokes.
• Clear Dimmer Symbol: Features a crisp, universally recognized dimmer symbol on the switch lever for immediate and intuitive identification.
• Secure Clip-In System: Integrated clips lock the module firmly into the yoke with a positive click, ensuring a solid and reliable installation.
• Durable Polycarbonate Casing: The module body is constructed from high-quality, impact-resistant polycarbonate for electrical safety and long-term durability.
• Universal Yoke Compatibility: Designed to fit any available slot on the Trinity 4x2 and 4x4 yokes, offering complete layout flexibility.
• Dual Colour Options: Available in classic White and modern Black Graphite to perfectly match corresponding yokes and cover plates.
• SANS Compliant: Engineered to meet the stringent requirements of SANS 60669-2-1 for electronic switches.

Benefits

• Sleek, Minimalist Aesthetic: Offers a clean, modern push-button look that is often preferred over traditional rotary knobs, perfectly aligning with contemporary interior design.
• Multi-Point Dimming: Allows for dimming control from multiple locations. You can install several of these modules in a room, all wired to the same dimmer regulator, to control the same set of lights.
• Ultimate Customization: The modular design allows you to build the perfect control panel. Combine this dimmer switch with standard 1-way switches in a multi-lever yoke for a completely custom and highly functional lighting control station.
• Cost-Effective and Flexible: If your control needs change, you only need to swap out this inexpensive module, not the entire wall plate and frame.
• Flawless Aesthetic Integration: The module is designed to perfectly match the look and feel of standard Trinity switch levers, ensuring a cohesive and high-end finish even with advanced functionality.
• Separates Control from Load: By using a separate dimmer regulator (often located in the ceiling or DB board), the heat-generating electronics are kept away from the user interface, which can improve longevity.

In-Depth Technical Specifications

This module is the user-facing component of a sophisticated dimming system. Below are its detailed technical specifications.

Product Specifications

Required Components for a Complete System

This is a specialized module and requires several other parts for a functional dimming system:

1. Dimmer Regulator: An electronic dimming pack that is controlled by this module. This is the device that actually dims the lights and must be purchased separately.
2. Trinity Yoke: A mounting frame (e.g., TS2011Y, TS2021Y) that fits into the wall box.

Ideal Use

The Trinity DIM On-Off Module is ideal for modern, high-end lighting installations where a minimalist aesthetic and multi-point control are desired.

• Living Rooms & Home Theatres: Create a clean, push-button interface for cinematic lighting control from multiple entrances or seating areas.
• Master Bedrooms: Install a module at the door and additional modules at each bedside for convenient, multi-point dimming control.
• Open-Plan Spaces: Provides a unified way to control large lighting zones from various points within the space.
• Boardrooms & Conference Rooms: Offers a sophisticated and intuitive interface for controlling presentation lighting.
• High-End Residential & Hospitality: The preferred choice for luxury homes, apartments, and hotels where a premium look and advanced functionality are key.

Tips

• This is NOT a Standalone Dimmer: It is critical to understand that this module does not dim lights on its own. It is a momentary switch that MUST be connected to a compatible, separately purchased dimmer regulator.
• Check Regulator Compatibility: Before purchasing, ensure this push-button module is compatible with the dimmer regulator you intend to use. It is designed for regulators that accept a momentary switch input.
• Wiring: This module is typically connected to the control/signal input of the dimmer regulator using low-voltage bell wire. It does not switch the mains power directly. Always follow the wiring diagram provided by the dimmer regulator manufacturer.
• Multi-Point Setup: To control the same lights from two or more locations, simply wire multiple DIM On-Off modules in parallel to the same input on the dimmer regulator.
• Distinguishing from a Standard Switch: Do not use this module for standard on/off lighting control without a dimmer regulator. For that purpose, you must use the Trinity 16A 1 Way Switch Module (TSM001).
