| + | The Netzer supports the direct connection of phase dimmers. So it is possible to control high voltage loads like bulbs via Ethernet resp. Intranet/Internet. | ||

| - | From **version 1.4 pro**, direct addressing of a reverse phase dimmer is supported by Netzer. | + | A phase switching mechanism is described here that is for example built up by a thyristor. For this switching mechanism, the important feature of the thyristor is that in zero crossing it deletes from mains voltage itself, i.e. switches off. |

| Zero crossings must be captured by an external circuit, creating a homopolar pulse during every zero crossing. For this purpose, for example an AC optocoupler such as SFH620 is suitable. | Zero crossings must be captured by an external circuit, creating a homopolar pulse during every zero crossing.

| - | A triggered pulse output of Netzer is dimmed. **IO3** or **SPI_INT** are both suitable for this. It is hence possible to operate up to two dimmers in parallel. | + | A triggered pulse output of Netzer is dimmed. **IO3** or **SPI_INT** are both suitable for this.

| - | {{ :de:netzer:phasecontrolpulsee.gif?nolink& | Pulse setting}} | + | This setting allows very granular gradations with a resolution of 200\ ns. Since under mains voltage a half cycle is 10\ ms and values between 100 (the is the smallest possible value in [[en:netzer:io#impuls|pulse operation]] and 50000 possible. Values comply with the time according **to which** the thyristor is powered. I.e. the larger the value, the less power will run at the output. |
