Global Fade Rate = One fade rate for all scenes.

Each dimmer’s fade rate affects all scenes. Examples: Dimmer #1 fade rate set 7.5 sec., dimmer #2 set to 15 sec., and dimmer #3 set to 3 sec. When any scene is selected dim- mers #1, 2, and 3, will respond with 7.5, 15, and 3 seconds, respectively for ON, OFF, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I J, K, and L.

To change the Global Fade Rate that affects all scenes:

1.Tap the OFF button on the Master.

2.Press and hold the SET button. After 3 seconds, either a single green LED or a pair of green LEDs indicates the current “global” fade rate. The bottom LED indi- cates the 1.5 second fade rate, the next LED up is 3 seconds, while the top LED is 2 minutes. If the bottom two LEDs are on, it indicates the 5 minutes fade rate, if the next two LEDs up are lit, it indicates 15 minutes, while the top two LEDs indicate the 60 minute fade rate.

Note: When the two LEDs are on, they will not be at the same intensity.

3.While holding the Set button, tap the top of the rocker to sequence the LEDs through the various fade rates until the desired fade rate is selected.
