Clipsal by Schneider Electric eDLT switch

Clipsal by Schneider Electric has launched the enhanced Dynamic Labelling Technology (eDLT) switch. Based on the C-Bus DLT switch, the eDLT offers both installers and end users greater functionality and design benefits, simplified installation and displays C-Bus system information that would usually require a touch screen.

Offered in a range of styles and finishes to complement almost any decor and design, a key feature of the switch is the high-resolution screen and tri-colour LEDs, which allow customised colour combinations to be achieved with ease.

The eDLT features tri-colour LEDs with multiple screen and LED colour options, which can be programmed to suit almost any interior decor. LED colours can be used to reflect load thresholds such as red if too much power is being consumed or green to indicate the alarm is on.

The dual function buttons feature a left/right rocking action which can perform a different function depending on position. This is particularly useful when dimming lights up or down or controlling the volume of music.

Dynamic labelling and complementary icons provide labelling options that offer more than typical switch function. Users can see the state of the device being controlled, as well as information such as temperature or power consumption.

The eDLT can be woken from its standby state by the proximity sensor that will activate when the user’s hand comes within 10 cm and the colour LCD screen allows the installer to choose from a range of background and text colours.

A magnetic mounting bracket ensures that the eDLT snaps quickly and securely into place onto the fixing bracket, resulting in a quick and easy installation. The device is configurable via C-Bus Toolkit software, employing a ‘what you see is what you get’ user interface that greatly assists with the configuration. Field-upgradeable firmware also ensures that the user has the latest product features.
