Appendix A: AMX Lighting Curves

The following table provides a general relationship between load type and which curve to use:

Load Type

Curves

 

 

Incandescent

Curve 1 – Standard dimming curve

 

 

 

Curve 2 – Energy efficient, uses 10% less energy.

 

 

Advance Mark VII Ballast

Curves 3, 5, or 6

 

 

 

4-wire Ballasts

Curve 5

– Used for some ballasts

 

 

 

 

Curve 7

– Used with other ballasts with the RDM-DC series of modules.

 

 

Low voltage

Curves 5, 6, B, C – All logarithmic curves with slight variations in the curve.

 

 

 

Lutron FDB Ballasts

Curve 8

– Used in conjunction with the RDM-FDB series of modules.

 

 

 

 

Curve 9

– Used in conjunction with the RDM-FDB series of modules.

 

Provides a slightly different “look” than curve 8. Since this curve has the

 

highest low end turn-on level by default, it is probably a good choice for

 

Advance Mark X. We have found the Mark X usually needs its low-end set-

 

ting adjusted higher.

 

 

Non-dimming/Switched

Curve N, Curve E – Used for ON/OFF control only. Useful for all switch

 

modules (i.e. RDM-SWM, RDM-HSW, RDM-DPSM, RDM-ZC modules).

 

 

Fan motors

Curve R - Used for devices that start at a high voltage and then decrease

 

voltage in order to function.

 

 

 

Standard Dimming Curve (1)
