How to connect a "pulsedrukker" switch to a dimmer

[eggn1n3]

Hi,

I would like to install a Z-wave dimmer to control a light bulb. This dimmer will be built into the wall behind a switch. My question is if I need a so called "pulsedruk" switch to control the dimmer? For example, I looked at the Fibaro FGD211 and Qubino dimmer, but I don't understand how to connect it to the switch. Both dimmers have three inputs for switches. I would expect to use two puls switches; one to increase the light level and one to decrease the light level. Is this assumption right, or don't I understand it correctly?

Thanks!

I use a pulsdruk with fibaro. First short press is on. Double puls is full on. First long press is dim second long press is brighter.

You can configure the fibaro dimmer to work with a normal switch or with a puls switch. Puls gives you some more possibilities. If i press it for a few seconds the light willl be brighter. If i release and press again for a few seconds the lights will dim, so you will have full control.

Which type/model of switch do you use for this?

I want to use Fibaro model FGD211.

There are three inputs (S1,S2,Sx) fibaro.com/manuals/en/FGD221-Dimmer/FGD ... .1-2.3.pdf
To dim the light, do I need to use both S1 (more light) and S2 (less light)?

Thanks!

I use the Jung impulsdrukker series. Work fine for me http://www.jung.de/nl/online-catalogus/63920681/

If you use a single pulse switch on the FGD211 then connect it between Sx and S1 and modify parameter 14 to program the correct type of switch to be used.
