Dynadimmer Stand-alone
Dimming Profile
Your efficient, stand-alone
dimming solution
Dynadimmer can help you project a green image and save
energy while also supporting traffic and pedestrian security
efforts and creating a comfortable, inviting nighttime
environment. Once easily installed in your outdoor LED
luminaire, Dynadimmer changes the luminaire’s light output
to high, medium or low according to pre-programmed or
customized dimming schedules to reduce light pollution
and energy consumption without compromise.
The dimming schedules may also prolong the LED
luminaire’s lifespan for less maintenance and lower costs
of ownership, and reduce energy consumption and CO2
emissions. An override function allows the luminaire to
project full light output when triggered by an optional
motion sensor, switch or relay, and then automatically
return to the programmed schedule.

Programmable
Motion Response
Your reactive, stand-alone
dimming solution
Programmable Motion Response maximizes
your outdoor lighting energy savings
while supporting security efforts. Upon
easy installation, Programmable Motion
Response dims your outdoor LED luminaire
to a low light output, increases to a high
light output only when motion is detected,
and returns to the original low output after a
defined time.
10 Philips Controls
Motion-based dimming may prolong the
LED luminaire and electrical component
lifespans, for significant energy and cost
savings during unoccupied periods. Preprogrammed or customized settings control
light, duration, and sensitivity levels, as
well as daylight sensing for even more
energy savings. Settings are easily changed
at the luminaire with an optional wireless
handheld programmer, and custom factorybased programs are also available.
