GROUP CONTROL AND DIMMING
When turning on a group, dimmers
will turn on at the light level they
were set to before they were
turned off.
The light levels of all dimmers in a
group will align to the same level
after any dimming operation ends.
SCENE CONTROL AND DIMMING
When turning on dimmers in a
scene they will always go to their
programmed light level for the
scene.
Dimming of all dimmers in a scene
will maintain any difference in light
level after dimming stops. The light
levels will not align.

RF OPERATING FREQUENCY
• Malaysia 868.1MHz
• UK/Singapore/UAE 868.4MHz
• Hong Kong 919.8MHz
Typical RF range 75m open field
The RF range quoted above is in
open field conditions. This rangewill be reduced when mounted in
a property by any walls and objects
between the transmitting and
receiving devices by an amount
dependant upon the number
of walls and their construction.
However, the effects of this will be
minimized by the mesh and routing
capabilities of the astral system.
