1 Introduction
1.1 OSRAM LED drivers with 4DIM functionality for outdoor and industrial applicationsLong life, low maintenance costs and high effi ciency are
very important for outdoor and industrial applications.
OPTOTRONIC® LED drivers for outdoor applications meet
these requirements and unlock the full potential of LED-
based light sources.
Thanks to the high fl exibility of the programmable
OPTOTRONIC® 4DIMLT2 LED drivers, LED luminaire sys-
tems can be optimally adapted to the required conditions
and their cost can be optimized. With the four integrated
dimming functions (4DIM), signifi cant energy savings and
a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved.
The standardized DALI interface allows for the simple inte-
gration into telemanagement systems (for example with the
OSRAM Street Light Control system) and also a harmo-
nized control of the output light level in contrast to a 0–10 V
interface. Moreover, these LED drivers already fulfi ll the new
stand-by requirements that will become effective in Europe
in 2016.
Due to the large operating window (voltage/current) of
these LED drivers, both OSRAM LED modules for outdoor
applications and customer-specifi c LED modules can be
operated. This also means that the overall amount of
different LED drivers on stock can be kept low and that
the overall complexity of luminaire maintenance over the
entire lifecycle can be reduced.
With the LEDset2 interface, OSRAM has created a new
path towards standardizing the communication between
LED driver and LED modules. LEDset2 ensures optimal
effi ciency, a high level of reliability and the adaptability of
the LED drivers to the latest LED technologies without
reprogramming.
Finally, the LED drivers with 4DIM functionality also set a
new standard with an integrated overvoltage protection
against common-mode surges up to 10 kV (single pulse)
for class I and II luminaires.

1.2 4DIMLT2 product familyThe 4DIMLT2 product family consists of 4 different output
power classes up to 165 W. All 4 types have the same
4DIM dimming capabilities and the new multi-vendor
LEDset2 interface. They can be programmed via the
Tuner4TRONIC® software. The following overview shows
the main features of these new LED drivers.
4DIMLT2 LED drivers | Introduction

DALI
DALIDALIDALI
Thanks to their DALI interface, the 4DIMLT2 LED drivers
can be integrated into telemanagement systems and oper-
ated with the OSRAM Street Light Control system. Bidirec-
tional communication and the query of status information
from the LED driver is also possible via DALI.
StepDIM/StepDIM inverse
StepDIM
Dimming via an external control phase: Predefi ned dimming
levels can be varied via the Tuner4TRONIC® software and
the polarity of the phase. The SD port also allows control
via a presence sensor powered by the mains.
AstroDIM/presence detection
AstroDIM
PRESENCE
Automatic dimming via an integrated timer (no real time
clock): 5 independent dimming levels and zones can be set
with the Tuner4TRONIC® software. Brightness variation is
possible in combination with an external presence sensor.
MainsDIM
MainsDIM
Dimming via mains voltage amplitude: This feature is often
used in combination with magnetic ballasts in outdoor
applications. The dimming behavior can be set via the
Tuner4TRONIC® software.
CLO (constant lumen output)
CLO
The decrease in the luminous fl ux of an LED module can be
compensated over its entire lifetime via a preprogrammed
current curve. This not only ensures stable lighting but also
saves energy and increases the lifetime of the LEDs.
Fit for SMART GRID
SMART
GRID
With this feature, the power consumption and operating
hours (resettable) of the LED module can be monitored.
Additional advantage: “Fit for SMART GRID” can also
provide better analysis of the lighting, thus ensuring safe
operation of the system.
LEDset2
The new generation LEDset2 is an improved LED module
interface for the combination of single or multiple LED
modules with one LED driver via a single analog control
line. This interface enables external current setting and
temperature monitoring. The LEDset2 interface has no
auxiliary supply and is not compatible with LEDset (1st
generation). LEDset2 has an absolute current coding, while
LEDset (1st generation) only has a relative one.
External temperature sensor
Ext. NTC
This feature allows the temperature protection of the LED
module or the complete luminaire in hot ambient tempera-
tures via an external sensor (e.g. NTC, negative tempera-
ture coeffi cient resistor). The derating can be modifi ed via
the Tuner4TRONIC® software.
Integrated overvoltage protection
6 kV(DIF)
8 kV(COM)
The 4DIMLT2 drivers have an integrated overvoltage
protection up to 6 kV for differential and 8 kV for common
mode overvoltages. They are also capable to withstand
one single 10 kV common mode pulse.

1.3 NomenclatureThe product name of each OPTOTRONIC® 4DIMLT2 LED
driver is defi ned as shown below.
It is possible to operate the driver below the minimum
nominal current through initial setting of the output current.
Warning:When LED drivers are permanently operated below the
minimum nominal current, it is necessary to ensure compli-
ance with relevant IEC standards (for example mains cur-
rent distortion and power factor). Please consider that the
certifi cates are only valid within the nominal output current
range.
1.4 Operating windowsThe OPTOTRONIC® 4DIMLT2 LED driver family is split up
into 4 different power classes to provide the best suitable
power supply for different applications. The nominal output
current of 350–1050 mA is available in the following power
packages.
Figure 2 gives a complete overview of the possible
4DIMLT2 operating windows.

Warning:The real number of supported LEDs needs to be checked
according to the minimum and maximum forward voltage
in the worst case conditions. They have to match the mini-
mum and maximum output voltage of the used LED drivers.
The forward voltage of the connected LED module in dim-
ming condition is lower than the forward voltage in nominal
condition but still has to be above the minimum output volt-
age of the LED driver.
1.4.2 Current foldbackThe intelligent 4DIMLT2 family allows a safe start-up of the
system if the power consumption or the total forward volt-
age of the LED module exceeds the maximum output pow-
er or voltage of the LED driver. In this case, the unit reduc-
es the current until the maximum output voltage [1] or
power [2] is not exceeded anymore. If no stable operating
point is achieved, the unit switches continuously on and off
or switches off completely.

1.4.1 Supported LEDsTable 4 shows how many LEDs can be driven with
one LED driver. The values are based on the following
assumptions:

2 Features
2.1 Operating currentFlexible current setting allows taking advantage of the
continuously improving LED technology and building a
future-proof system. The 4DIMLT2 family offers two
modes for current setting, which can be set via the
Tuner4TRONIC® software:
— Fixed current: Current setting via programmable
interface
— LEDset2: Current setting via the LEDset2 interface
The factory default current is 700 mA without any resistor
connected to the LEDset2 interface. As soon as the LED
driver detects a resistor value for more than 3 seconds
within the valid resistor range of 2.37 kΩ (1050 mA) and
24.9 kΩ (200 mA), it switches to the LEDset2 mode.
2.1.1 Fixed current modeTo use the fi xed current mode, it has to be selected in the
Tuner4TRONIC® software. The minimum and maximum rat-
ed output currents are displayed according to the selected
LED driver. The output current of the LED driver can be set
by changing the value in the “Operating Current” fi eld.
It is possible to set a current lower than the minimum rated
current (see warning in chapter 1.4). This operating current
is indicated by a red number as shown in fi gure 5.
2.1.2 LEDset2 modeThe LEDset2 interface (LEDset 2nd generation) is a stan-
dardized LED module interface to set the right output current
and establish an easy and low-cost temperature protection
for the connected LED module. This multi-vendor interface
is suitable for LED modules connected in parallel or series.
Note:In the following fi gures, the LED module is displayed in a
simplifi ed way. The real number of LEDs depends on the
output voltage of the driver.Figure 4: Setting of operating current

The output current of the LED driver can be set using an
externally connected resistor (min. power rating 50 mW,
max. tolerance 0.5 %). This provides the possibility to set
the LED current manually without the need for an additional
programming of the LED driver. With a resistor mounted on
the LED module as shown in fi gure 8, the correct LED cur-
rent can be set automatically. With this resistor, the desired
current for the LED module is set according to the used
LED bin and needed lumen output, offering a real plug-
and-play solution and making the system future-proof.
The LEDset2 coding for the 4DIMLT2 family is described
by the following graph.
For further details, please refer to the LEDset2
application guide, which can be downloaded at
www.osram.com\ledset.
Assuming a tuning factor of 100 %, the corresponding
output current can be calculated with the following formula
within the valid resistor range (Rset = 2.37–24.9 kΩ):
The undefi ned range should be avoided because the
output current of the LED driver is not predictable.
Table 5 gives an overview of commonly used current
values and the appropriate resistor values.To achieve a more accurate current setting, the second
LED- terminal of the LED driver can be used as shown in
fi gure 9. This increases the accuracy by roughly 0.5 %.

2.1.3 Tuning factorIn combination with the LEDset2 operating mode, the tun-
ing factor provides a real added value. To minimize the
number of LED module variants, the tuning factor can be
used to adapt the light output of standardized LED mod-
ules (e.g. Zhaga modules). The normalized luminous fl ux of
the module can be set to the required light output of the
application.
Output current [mA] = LEDset2 current [mA] x tuning factor [%]
Two different thermal protection modes can be selected in
the Tuner4TRONIC® software.
— Resistor-based mode (factory default)
— Temperature-based mode
Example:If 7000 lm are needed, a standardized 8000-lm LED mod-
ule can be used with a tuning factor of 87 % to achieve this
requirement. Every time the 8000-lm module is replaced
(also with a different default current), the current of the LED
driver (light output of the LED module) will be reduced by
87 % and the system is adapted to roughly 7000 lm. This
enables an easy replacement in the fi eld without repro-
gramming, while having a low number of LED module vari-
ants on stock.
Warning: In case the tuning factor is set higher than 100 %, the relia-
bility and safety of the module needs to be checked. In
case the set operating current multiplied with the tuning
factor exceeds the maximum nominal output current of the
LED driver, the LED driver will limit the output current to the
maximum nominal output current.
2.2 Thermal derating and protection
2.2.1 External temperature sensorBy connecting an external temperature sensor to the
NTCset terminal of the 4DIMLT2 LED driver, a very easy
and cost-effi cient temperature protection of the LED
module can be realized. As an example, an NTC (negative
temperature coeffi cient resistor) can be mounted on the
LED module and connected as shown in fi gure 12.

Resistor-based modeThe resistor-based mode is activated by default. If the con-
nected resistor sensor value falls in the range between 6.3
and 5.0 kΩ, the output current is continuously lowered
down to 50 %. If the value falls further below 4.3 kΩ, the
output is switched off completely until the sensor reaches
5.0 kΩ again. The complete switch-off can be deactivated
by clicking on the “Shut Off” check box.
In this mode, a common NTC can be used to achieve a
fi xed thermal protection as shown in table 6. The specifi ed
temperatures can vary depending on the used NTC com-
ponent and the corresponding tolerances.
Temperature-based modeIn this mode, the derating behavior can be defi ned in tem-
perature values if one of the NTCs listed below is used.
The following value ranges are supported.
Warning:The derating level cannot fall below the minimum physical
dimming level of the LED driver, even if the software dis-
plays a lower value.
2.2.2 Internal LED driver temperature protectionThe 4DIMLT2 LED drivers also have a reversible internal
thermal protection. If the maximum Tc temperature is ex-
ceeded, the LED driver starts derating the output current
down to 30 %. If the temperature keeps increasing, the
LED driver switches off. It switches back on at the maxi-
mum allowed Tc temperature.
Note:To achieve the lifetime data of the driver, the luminaire
manufacturer needs to ensure that the maximum Tc
temperature is never exceeded.
After selecting the correct sensor type in the Tuner4TRONIC®
software, the favored temperature behavior can be pro-
grammed as shown in fi gure 13.

2.3 Constant lumen functionOver the lifetime of an LED module, the light output drops
due to the aging process of the LEDs. To achieve a con-
stant light output of the module, the LED driver stores
the operating hours of the LED module and increases
the output current to react on the light output drop. To
set this feature according to the applied LED module, the
Tuner4TRONIC® software can be used, for example, as
shown in fi gures 15 and 16.
The exact values for programming the constant lumen
function for the connected LED module need to be ob-
tained from the corresponding LED supplier.
2.4 Lamp operating counterThe LED driver monitors the operating hours of the con-
nected LED module. In case of a fault of the LED driver or
module, the lamp operating time has to be (re)set accord-
ingly with the Tuner4TRONIC® software. The lamp operat-
ing time also has an infl uence on the constant lumen func-
tion and the “end of life” feature. It can be set using the
Tuner4TRONIC® software as shown in fi gure 18.
2.5 End of lifeThe LED driver can indicate that a preprogrammed lifetime
of the connected LED module is reached and the module
should be replaced. This function has to be activated in
advance via the Tuner4TRONIC® software. The “end of life”
indication can be programmed as shown in fi gure 19.
If the specifi ed lifetime is reached, the LED driver indicates
this through a lower light output during the fi rst 10 minutes
of the switch-on period as shown in fi gure 20.
The output levels have to be monotonically increasing from
the beginning to the end.
Warning:The output level is indicated as a red number if the level is
set higher than 100 %. In this case, the reliability and safety
of the module needs to be checked if the nominal operating
current is exceeded. It is not possible to achieve a higher
output current than the maximum nominal output current
of the LED driver.
The output level cannot fall below the minimum physical
dimming level of the LED driver, even if the software dis-
plays a lower value.
By clicking the “Savings” button, the estimated energy
savings are calculated as shown in fi gure 17. This value
is only an estimation because it does not consider, for
example, the LED VF behavior and effi ciency of the driver.

Figure 22: “End of life” behavior with short switch-on fade time
If a switch-on fade time is set, it is overriden by the “end of
life” functionality as described in fi gure 21. After 10 minutes,
the output current is set according to the current switch-on
fade time level.
Note:The “end of life” indication is deactivated in DC operation
until the next power-off/on cycle or DALI operation.
If the switch-on fade time is shorter than 10 minutes, the
output current is directly switched to the nominal output
level after the “end of life” indication as shown in fi gure 22.

2.6 OEM codeBy entering the OEM code, the following features of the
4DIMLT2 drivers can be protected:
— Constant lumen
— Operating current
— Thermal protection
By factory default, the drivers are not protected by the
OEM code. Once it is entered, the confi guration can
only be reprogrammed with the same OEM code. The
valid OEM code range is from 0001 to 9999. 0000 is
reserved to indicate a non-protected device. The protection
can be deactivated in the special rework mode of the
Tuner4TRONIC® software with a Tuner4TRONIC® pro-
duction fi le containing no OEM code.

3 Operating modes
The operating modes of a 4DIMLT2 LED driver can be
selected using the Tuner4TRONIC® software.
3.1 On/off operating modeThe 4DIMLT2 LED drivers can also be used in a simple
on/off operating mode. One of the following dimming
modes needs to be selected:
— StepDIM/AstroDIM/DALI (wiring selection) –
DALI and SD port not connected
— StepDIM (DALI) – DALI and SD port not connected
— DALI – DALI port not connected
Note:Be aware that the parameters set in these operating modes
also have an infl uence on the behavior of the LED driver in
the on/off operating mode.
Note:DALI always has a higher priority than the selected operat-
ing mode and can be activated by a valid DALI command in
every mode. After a power-off/on cycle, the LED driver op-
erates in the originally selected dimming mode again.
The LED driver offers the possibility to select one of the
two dimming modes “StepDIM (DALI)” or “AstroDIM (DALI)”
via external wiring in case the default dimming mode “Step-
DIM/AstroDIM/DALI (wiring selection)” is set. Please refer to
chapter 3.2.1 for wiring information.

3.2 AstroDIM featureThe AstroDIM feature allows an autonomous dimming with-
out the need for an additional control line. The 4DIMLT2
LED drivers support up to 5 independent dimming levels
and fl exible settings of fade times between the single
dimming levels.
The output levels can be set to 0 % (OFF) or between 10 %
and 100 % in steps of 1 %.
In addition, switch-on and switch-off fade times can be
programmed at the beginning and the end of a switching
cycle to allow for further energy savings during the twilight
phase. This function is also helpful for installations with a
pedestrian crossing where no specifi c infrastructure is
available to switch the pedestrian crossing illumination
independently of the rest of the street light illumination.
Two different modes for AstroDIM are supported:
Time-based: The dimming profi le de-
fi ned in the reference schedule is refer-
enced to the switch-on time of the LED
driver.
Astro-based: The dimming profi le de-
fi ned in the reference schedule is refer-
enced to the annual average middle of
the night, which is calculated based on
the theoretical sunrise and sunset times.
The LED driver does not have a real time clock. The internal
reference clock is derived from the mains frequency and
the driver detects if it is connected to a 50 Hz or 60 Hz
supply system, assuming a time base of 20 ms or 16.6 ms.
This allows a synchronized switching of all units. In case
of DC operation (see chapter 3.6), the dimming mode is
stopped until the AC voltage is applied again and a power-
off/on cycle is performed.
Warning: If the output level is set below the minimum physical dimming
level of the LED driver (except OFF), the minimum dimming
current is used. The software still displays the original value.
3.2.1 Wiring and feature activationThere are two ways to activate the AstroDIM mode:
— Option 1: By external wiring
Selected dimming mode (factory default):
“StepDIM/AstroDIM/DALI (wiring selection)”
— Option 2: Via the Tuner4TRONIC® software
Selected dimming mode: “AstroDIM (DALI)” or
“AstroDIM PD (DALI)”
For option 1, the AstroDIM feature is activated without the
need for programming. Only a permanent connection between
the L and the SD port of the LED driver is necessary (see
fi gure 25). If the SD port is not active during the start-up
phase of the LED driver (for 1 s), the StepDIM feature is
activated instead of the AstroDIM feature. Information on
the default dimming profi le can be found in the datasheet
of the used LED driver.
For option 2, the external wiring can be avoided if either the
“AstroDIM (DALI)” or “AstroDIM PD (DALI)” dimming mode is
selected via the software (see fi gure 26).

3.2.2 Time-based modeIn this mode, the LED driver performs the dimming profi le
defi ned in the reference schedule based on the switch-on
time of the unit. 5 independent output levels can be set for
each step. The minimum length of one dimming period has
to be longer than the AstroDIM fade time. The maximum
duration of the schedule is 23 h and 59 min. If less than 5
output levels should be performed, two sequenced levels
have to be set to the same value. The AstroDIM dimming
profi le in the time-based mode already starts after the fi rst
power-off/on cycle after programming.

Fade timing:
— AstroDIM fade time: Fade time between the different
dimming levels.
— Switch-on fade time: Fade time after the power-on
of the LED driver. The output level at the end of this fade
time is defi ned by the output level of the related dim-
ming period.

Fade timing:
— AstroDIM fade time: Fade time between the different
dimming levels.
To achieve further energy savings in the twilight phase, the
switch-on and switch-off fade time can be set to up to 60
minutes.
— Switch-on fade time: Fade time after the LED driver
has been powered on. The output level at the end of
this fade time is defi ned by the output level of the related
dimming period (step x).
— Switch-off fade time: Fade time prior to the estimated
power-off point. The switch-off fading is performed
down to the minimum dimming current until the LED
driver is switched off externally.
The “schedule by day” in the AstroDIM feature tab calcu-
lates the estimated dimming behavior for a specifi c day
based on the theoretical sunrise and sunset times. If day-
light saving should be considered, the check box needs
to be ticked. The LED driver itself is not able to detect
summer and winter time and does not have an internal
real time clock.
In case the installation is not powered on and off at the
calculated sunrise and sunset times, the correct values
can be entered in the manual mode as shown in fi gure 29.
The AstroDIM function in astro-based mode relies on an
intelligent algorithm. It starts after the fi rst valid night and
reaches its maximum precision after 8 valid days. A valid
on-time is defi ned if the duration of the operation is longer
than 4 hours and shorter than 24 hours.
Table 10: Fade timing parameters (astro-based mode)
Parameter Min. Max. Default
AstroDIM fade time 0, 2 s 8 min 3 min
Switch-on fade time 0, 15 s 60 min 0 s
Switch-off fade time OFF, 0 s 60 min OFF
3.2.3 Astro-based modeIn this mode, the LED driver performs a dimming profi le
based on the daily power-on and power-off times. The
dimming schedule is adapted according to the length of
the night.
The Tuner4TRONIC® software calculates the annual aver-
age middle of the night based on the theoretical sunrise
and sunset times, which are related to the location selected
in the software. Based on this average middle of the night,
5 independent dimming periods can be defi ned in the refer-
ence schedule. The minimum length of one dimming period
has to be longer than the AstroDIM fade time. Valid time
values can be set between 12:00 pm and 11:59 am. If less
than 5 output levels should be performed, two sequenced
levels have to be set to the same value.
The defi ned dimming profi le is already performed after the
second power-off/on cycle after programming.

Voltage dips of less than 100 ms do not affect the
on-time (case B).
If the on-time of the LED driver is shorter than 4 hours, it
is not saved and therefore not used to calculate the next
on-time (case C).
The AstroDIM profi le is performed after the fi rst valid
on-time.

If the on-time of the LED driver is longer than 24 hours, it is
not saved and therefore not used to calculate the next on-
time.
Note:If the 4DIMLT2 LED driver is operated longer than 24 hours,
it cannot be assumed that the different dimming level will
start at the same time, because the time base is affected
by the accuracy of the mains frequency over the day, week,
month and year.

3.2.4 Presence detection in AstroDIM modeIn the “AstroDIM PD (DALI)” dimming mode, it is possible to
override the dimming profi le of AstroDIM with the presence
detection settings triggered by an external sensor (e.g. mo-
tion or presence sensor) that is connected to the SD port.
The sensor should support the electrical characteristics of
the SD port.
An active signal at the SD port (PD signal) starts the pres-
ence detection profi le, which is defi ned by the following
four parameters:
— PD level: Output level when the SD port is active.
— Start fade time: Fade time after the SD port has
become active.
— Hold time: Hold time after the SD port is not active
anymore.
— End fade time: Fade time after the hold period.
These parametere can be set using the Tuner4TRONIC®
software as shown in fi gure 33.

Warning: If the output level falls below the minimum physical dim-
ming level, the minimum physical dimming level is used by
the LED driver. The software still displays the original value.
3.3 StepDIM feature StepDIM is a one-step dimming mode using an additional
control line or a switched phase (pilot line) to control one
or more light points and set the light output to a prepro-
grammed light level. The SD level and the fade time can
be set using the Tuner4TRONIC® software.
There are 3 different StepDIM operating modes:
— StepDIM (DALI)
— StepDIM inverse (DALI)
— StepDIM inverse, autodetect (DALI)
For StepDIM operation, the LED driver is connected to the
mains and a control line or a switched phase. Figure 34
shows the connection for the two different supply voltage
systems.

The StepDIM application is supported by the following
supply systems.
The StepDIM port (SD) of the 4DIMLT2 LED drivers is trig-
gered by an input current referenced to the neutral (N). The
SD port fulfi lls the following characteristics.
In some installations, leakage currents might occur be-
tween the different phases due to old or damaged cables,
which have insuffi cient insulation or high capacitance
coupling. The unit can be triggered if the leakage currents
exceed the inactive SD input current. False triggering can
be avoided by connecting the SD input to the neutral or
using a bypass capacitance between SD and N.
3.3.1 StepDIM If, in the “StepDIM (DALI)” mode, the switch (S2) is closed
and the phase voltage Lx is applied to the SD port (SD ac-
tive), the output level is set to the SD level. Leaving the SD
port fl oating (SD inactive), the output level is set to the
nominal level.
— Nominal level: Output level when the SD port is
not active.
— SD level: Output level when the SD port is active.
— Switch-on fade time: Fade time after power-on.
— Start fade time: Fade time after the SD port has
become active.
— Hold time: Hold time after the SD port is not active
anymore.
— End fade time: Fade time after the hold period.
These parameters can be set using the Tuner4TRONIC®
software as shown in fi gure 36.

3.3.2 StepDIM inverseFor the “StepDIM inverse (DALI)” mode, the behavior is
inverted. If the switch (S2) is opened and the SD port is
fl oating (SD inactive), the output level is set to the SD level.
If a phase voltage is applied to the SD port (SD active), the
output level is set to the nominal level.

— Nominal level: Output level when the SD port is
active.
— SD level: Output level when the SD port is not active.
— Switch-on fade time: Fade time after power-on.
— Start fade time: Fade time after the SD port is not
active anymore.
— Hold time: Hold time after the SD port has become
active.
— End fade time: Fade time after the hold period.
3.3.3 StepDIM inverse, autodetectIn the “StepDIM inverse, autodetect (DALI)” mode, the LED
driver automatically detects if it is used in a simple on/off
environment or in a StepDIM inverse installation. If a valid
“high” signal (SD active) is detected at the SD port for
longer than 20 minutes, the LED driver automatically
switches into the “StepDIM inverse” mode.

This feature allows minimizing the number of different lumi-
naire confi gurations and keeps the stock lean.
Example:In some parts of StepDIM installations (e.g. roundabouts
or pedestrian crossings), the light output of the installed
fi xtures should not be reduced during the night. With the
“autodetect” feature, all LED drivers can be programmed
with the same settings: While the on/off fi xtures (SD port
not connected) still provide the full light output, the others
perform the requested dimming profi le.
3.3.4 Mixed StepDIM installations with 3DIM and 4DIMLT2 LED driversDue to improvements in the circuit robustness of the
StepDIM port of the 4DIMLT2 LED drivers compared to
the previous 3DIM generation, it is not possible to operate
3DIM and 4DIMLT2 LED drivers on the same SD line
without an additional relay on the SD port of the 3DIM
drivers. As mentioned in the 3DIM application guide, it is
necessary to install an additional relay in mixed installations
to separate the SD port of the 3DIM driver from the pilot or
control line (see fi gure 39). This is also valid for drivers
whose control port for the pilot line is not referenced to N
(see unkown ECG in fi gure 39).

Figure 40: MainsDIM wiring
3.4 MainsDIM featureThe reduction of the mains amplitude is partly used for the
dimming of conventional lamps. In the MainsDIM operating
mode, the output current of the LED driver depends on the
mains input voltage. Standard electronic drivers compen-
sate for fl uctuations in the input voltage and do not support
this function. No additional control wires are needed in this
dimming mode (see fi gure 40).
The dimming behavior of the LED driver can be
programmed using the Tuner4TRONIC® software.
The programmable values can be found in table 15.

Figure 42: DALI wiring
Note:To increase the light output stability against small voltage
fl uctuations, a minimum voltage difference of 5 V from the
“start voltage” is necessary to trigger the dimming of the
LED driver. The triggering of the dimming is performed with
a delay time of approximately 1 to 2 seconds. The setting
of the thresholds should also consider the voltage drop in
the real installation due to cable and contact resistance.
3.5 DALI operating modeFor DALI operation, the 4DIMLT2 LED driver is connected
to the mains and to a DALI controller (e.g. Street Light Con-
trol system) or DALI bus (see fi gure 42). The additional DALI
wires can be installed alongside the mains wires.

Up to 64 DALI LED drivers can be controlled via a 2-wire
control line – individually, jointly or in up to 16 groups. All of
them are connected in parallel to the two DALI wires. DALI
connections are not polarized. Therefore, plus and minus
do not have to be checked. The maximum allowed wire
length between two DALI LED drivers is 300 m. In case of
problems, a DALI repeater needs to be used.
The lighting can be switched and dimmed via the DALI
control line. A logarithmic (default) or linear dimming curve
can be set. Additional status information can be read out
and exchanged between the LED driver and the control
unit.
The DALI mode always has the highest priority. The LED
driver switches into the DALI operating mode as soon as
a valid DALI command is received. The DALI mode is kept
until the next power-off/on cycle.
By default, the dimming behavior is set to the logarithmic
dimming curve.
Note:The 4DIMLT2 family does not support the OSRAM Touch
DIM® functionality.
3.6 DC operation featureThe 4DIMLT2 drivers are prepared for a DC grid operation.
The suitable DC input voltage and output power range can
be provided on request. Please contact us if you plan a
DC application. As the in-built 4DIMLT2 LED driver fuse is
not rated for DC operation, an external rated DC fuse is
necessary.
The driver is capable to detect DC operation. Using the
Tuner4TRONIC® software, the DC detection can be activat-
ed and the output level (called “emergency mode” level in
the Tuner4TRONIC® software) in DC operation can be set.
During DC operation (“emergency mode”), the DALI func-
tions, the dimming modes and the “end of life” feature are
deactivated. After returning to AC supply, the LED driver
stays in the DALI mode until the next power-off/on cycle.
The thermal protection, constant lumen and operating
current features remain active.
The driver is not intended to be approved for emergency
lighting application.
Warning: If the output level in the DC mode falls below the minimum
physical dimming level, the minimum physical dimming lev-
el is used by the LED driver. The software still displays the
original value.

4 Additional information
4.1 InsulationThe 4DIMLT2 LED drivers have a double/reinforced insula-
tion between the primary and the secondary side and a
double/reinforced insulation between all electronic parts
and the casing.
The equipotential pin (EQUI) meets the requirements for
double insulation versus primary side and requirements for
basic insulation versus secondary side (it complies with the
requirements of IEC 60598-1 Annex A – safe to be touched
– in case of insulation fault between all secondary circuits
and accessible conductive parts).
The detailed insulation levels are defi ned in the instruction
sheet of the product.

4.2 Cable preparationThe 4DIMLT2 LED drivers use open terminals for easy and
quick wiring. To ensure a safe and stable hold of the wires,
the insulation of the cables should be stripped accordingly.

4.3 Incorrect wiring on the output sideThe 4DIMLT2 LED drivers are inherently protected against
incorrect wiring on the output side. Incorrect wiring be-
tween LED+ and LEDset or NTCset can damage the LED
driver irreversibly. If there is a short circuit between LED+
and LED-, the LED driver shuts down and tries to switch
the load back on. The same behavior might occur if the
output voltage falls below the minimum allowed voltage.
4.4 Input overvoltageIn case the supply input voltage exceeds 305 VAC, the LED
driver shuts down to indicate an unbalanced load condi-
tion. The LED driver can withstand up to 350 VAC for a maxi-
mum of two hours.
4.5 Surge protectionThe 4DIMLT2 LED drivers offer a common mode protection
level up to 10 kV (1 pulse) with a unique integrated overvolt-
age suppression for the connected LED module, which
minimizes the stress on the LED module and thus ensures
high reliability in the fi eld. To achieve the surge protection
levels, the EQUI pin needs to be connected to the heat sink
of the LED module (see fi gures 47 and 48). For the below-
mentioned surge protection levels and test conditions, the
voltage stress between the LED module and the heat sink
can be kept below 1.5 kVpeak. The EQUI pin meets the re-
quirements for protection class I and II luminaires. The
protection level between L and N or SD and N is 6 kV. In
addition, the SD port contains an active surge suppression
element referenced to N.
The following protection levels can be achieved.

5 Programming
The 4DIMLT2 LED drivers can be programmed using the
Tuner4TRONIC® software together with the hardware pro-
grammer DALI magic. This software consists of the follow-
ing software packages:
— T4T – Development
— T4T – Production
— T4T – Dynamic Link Library (DLL)
— T4T – Command Line Version
The software can be downloaded from the
www.myosram.com portal after registration.
For more information on the programming of 4DIMLT2 LED
drivers, please refer to the Tuner4TRONIC® manuals.
The 4DIMLT2 LED drivers need to be powered during pro-
gramming. They need to be supplied either with the mains
input voltage (case A) or with an SELV DC voltage (case B).
The low voltage allows for safe programming without the
need for additional precautions during production.
Note: A power-off/on cycle is necessary to activate the
programmed parameters.
