HAI Omni Pro II with Onq ALC

[madburg]

New question,

Can you use a ALC Dimmer Switch on a fluorescent light fixture? And add a program block to the effect of WHEN ON THEN 100%. Is there a way to remove the ramp level, so it does not ramp up when going to 100%.

From the Onq ALC cut sheet:

CAUTION – To avoid overheating and possible damage to the
dimmer modules and other equipment, do NOT use the ALC
dimmer modules to control receptacles, fluorescent lighting,
motor operated appliances or transformer-supplied loads.

Not sure about the new LED bulbs

So the only supported ALC Switch would be the Non-Dimming? Or does it state they to cannot be used with "fluorescent lighting"?
Thanks for helping out.

Non-dimming, or relay switches for fluorescent lighting

How does one go about "Flashing" a ALC switch in a program block. So for example if driveway sensor not ready, turn on and off a ALC dimmer switch 3 times? There by flashing a light.

With simple "ON" Then "OFF" it is so fast the light never turns on... or if you try to program ON for 2 seconds, OFF, On for 2 sseconds, Off... It does not wait on each program block, it whips through them all, so again lights never turn on.
