Abstract
A programmable wallbox dimmer is disclosed. Upon entering a programming mode, the dimmer presents a main menu from which the user may select one or more features to program. The user may scroll through a list of programmable features by actuating the dimmer's raise/lower intensity actuator. The user may select a highlighted feature by actuating the dimmer's control switch. The dimmer may enter a value selection mode that is associated with the selected feature. In the value selection mode, the user may scroll through a list of features that define the selected feature by actuating the dimmer's raise/lower intensity actuator. The user may select a value for the selected feature. The selected value may be stored in the dimmer's memory.
Entering the programming mode is achieved by actuating the control switch while powering up or if the control switch has been actuated for at least a predetermined period of time.
Entering the programming mode is achieved by actuating the control switch while powering up or if the control switch has been actuated for at least a predetermined period of time.
