*Note: The Rapid Start feature is used to ensure the right amount of power boost during start-up. When a dimmer with Rapid Start is turned on from a low dimmer setting,
the LED lighting may exhibit a momentary flash. Select dimmer models offer an adjustment of the Rapid Start feature. The user may wish to adjust this setting to reduce the
boost and resulting momentary flash. If this capability is desired, the user should select dimmer models designated as “fully adjustable” or “selectable ON or OFF”.

0-10V Low Voltage Rated Dimmers - For Reference Only
Testing conducted by Eaton's lighting division is not a substitute for and does not imply certification by an independent laboratory or any other standards certification.Refer
to manufacturer specifications for more detailed information on product certifications and standards. Refer to this dimming guide notes section. Consult the dimmer manufacturer prior to installation to ensure compatibility.
Halo LED models that are specified for 0-10V dimming capability use drivers that are designed for use with 0-10V DC low voltage dimmers. 0-10V DC dimmers are quite commonly used with 0-10V fluorescent dimming ballasts such as Mark-7®, Quicktronic Helios™ or TVE™ that operate using two low voltage dimming wires that are separate
from the 120V AC or 277V AC power. Switching on/off is controlled via the line voltage power (120V AC or 277V AC). The dimming control signal runs on two low voltage
control wires (color coded violet and gray). The 0-10V dimmer operates on a “sinking” control signal where the dimmer uses a different level of the control voltage to set the
desired dimming level.

Dimmer Notes:
1. Start time is measured at the lowest dimmer setting.
2. Some LED rated dimmers have a "rapid start" design used to provide a momentary power boost for LED and CFL
lamps during start-up. When a LED luminaire is on a dimmer with "rapid start" the boost may cause a momentary
flash of the LED lighting. This "flash" is generated by the dimmer, and may be more noticeable when the dimmer
is at a low setting. A solution is available in the following EATON dimmers which provide adjustment capability of
the "rapid start": Decorator (DAL06P), Smart (AAL06), and Toggle (TAL06P). Refer to product specifications online at
www.cooperwiringdevices.com for more details.

Application Note
H277, H347 and H347200 step-down transformers are qualified to drive multiple Halo
LED on a single circuit in Non-IC construction. Installation of these transformers with
individual LED fixtures on circuits with multiple LED loads is not recommended.
This is not recommended due to resulting multiple inductive currents pulled by each
transformer; in this situation the majority of the power would then be reactive (VARS)
and not real (WATTS). If H277, H347 or H347200 transformers should be used individually
on each LED fixture in a single circuit, then that circuit should be sized for lowered power
factor as well as increased apparent power on the circuit. H277, H347 and H347200 are
UL/cUL listed for use with Halo recessed housings: H750T, H750TCP, H7T, H7TNB, H7RT.
Step Down Transformers
H277 = Steps 277 line voltage down to 120 volts. Attaches to knockout on first fixture’s
junction box in a circuit and is 300VA rated. H277 is a UL recognized Component listed
under the luminaire UL/cUL listing for Halo Non-IC housings.
H347 and H347200 = Steps 347 line voltage down to 120 volts. Attaches to knockout on
first fixture’s junction box in a circuit. H347 is 75VA and H347200 is 200VA rated. H347 is
a CSA/UL Listed Component for use under the luminaire UL/cUL listing with Halo Non-IC
housings.

Transformer Load - H277 (300VA)
1. H277 Transformer at full loading consumes a maximum of 16W of power.
2. When a dimmer or switch is on the secondary (120V) side of the transformer, power
is consumed by the transformer when the dimmer or switch is in “OFF” mode at 6.5W
and in “ON” mode at 16W maximum under full loading.
3. When a switch is on the primary (277V) side ahead of the transformer, power is
consumed only in “ON” mode to a maximum of 16W under full loading. (Use of a
dimmer ahead of the transformer is not recommended)
Transformer Load - H347 (75VA)
1. H347 Transformer at full loading consumes a maximum of 15W of power.
2. When a dimmer or switch is on the secondary (120V) side of the transformer, power
is consumed by the transformer when the dimmer or switch is in “OFF” mode at 2.5W
and in “ON” mode at 15W maximum under full loading.
3. When a switch is on the primary (347V) side ahead of the transformer, power is
consumed only in “ON” mode to a maximum of 15W under full loading.
(Use of a dimmer ahead of the transformer is not recommended)
Transformer Load - H347200 (200VA)
1. H347200 Transformer at full loading on 120V side consumes a maximum of 28W
of power.
2. When a dimmer or switch is on the secondary (120V) side of the transformer, power
is consumed by the transformer when the dimmer or switch is in “OFF” mode at 9.2W
and in “ON” mode at 28W maximum under full loading.
3. When a switch is on the primary (347V) side ahead of the transformer, power is
consumed only in “ON” mode to a maximum of 28W under full loading.
When a switch is on the primary (277V) side ahead of the transformer, power is
consumed only in “ON” mode to a maximum of 12W under full loading.
