Installation Process
From the outset, the physical installation
process has been enhanced, with a plug-in
fly-lead that allows the installer to prepare
the C-Bus cable for final fit-off. The actual
cable termination can take place at the
same time as the wall preparation, which
may be well before the installation of the
product occurs, or even before painting.
Installation of the eDLT’s mounting plate to
the wall can also take place at this time.
Both the fly-lead and mounting plate can be
purchased separately and ahead of time, so
they can be installed even before the eDLT
has been purchased. Should the eDLT be
installed in a location where unauthorised
removal of unit may be a problem, it can be
fastened to the mounting plate with screws.
Mounting Plate
Once the mounting plate is in place,
the eDLT is attached to the wall using
neodymium magnets that are embedded
into the body of the eDLT wall switch.
This ensures the eDLT snaps quickly and
securely in place, allowing easy installation
of the unit.
Furthermore, the eDLT is easily removed
from the mounting plate and unplugged
from the C-Bus network, should the
installer intend on testing the integrity of
the network connection, and return with
the C-Bus hardware for final handover
at a later date.
Dual Action Buttons
Each eDLT button is a dual action button.
The left/right rocking action allows the
buttons to perform different functions,
depending on which direction they're
operated. This is particularly useful when
dimming lights up or down or controlling
the volume of music. Like with all C-Bus
switches, a short press can toggle the
controlled device to its opposite state,
such as switching a light on or off.
The buttons are also easily programmed
so that the left function switches a light on
or off, while the right function can activate
a timer. The left/right function can cycle
through fan speeds or through scenes that
are stored in the eDLT. Once the desired
scene appears, the user can stop cycling
through the options, and that particular
scene will be activated. This also applies to
cycling through radio stations when using
C-Bus Multi-Room Audio.
Field-Upgradeable Firmware
The eDLT includes a mini USB port on the
back of the unit, enabling the installer to
update features as they are developed in
the future.
Updating the firmware through this
port requires a direct connection to a
PC running C-Bus Toolkit Software, as
the large amount of data would take
a significant amount of time to update
through a C-Bus connection.
