Dimmer Property Definitions
Each dimmer has specific properties that dictate how the dimmer functions and how CEM3 will
control it. These properties are accessible and editable for any dimmer by navigating to
[Setup]>Dimmers.
Below is a list of the various dimmer properties in the order they appear on the display:
Dimmer Property
Definition
Cct:
Circuit Number. A user-assigned number for a unique circuit
within a “space.” Typically the circuit number matches the labelling
at the corresponding power outlet.

cannot be altered. Some module types may take up multiple lug
positions in the rack. In this case, not all module “slots” will have a
circuit number
Lvl:
The current level (0-100%) of the HTP source in control of the
dimmer.
Module:
The type of module controlling the circuit. Defines module density,
ratings, and features to ensure proper function of the connected
