The CE-rated Hi-lume 1% Constant-Voltage Driver
(LDE1) is a high-performance LED driver capable of
controlling up to 96 W of 24 V- constant-voltage
loads. This driver provides smooth and continuous
dimming down to 1% low-end. It is ideal for use with
strip lighting in applications such as coves, under / over
cabinet and pathway lighting. The driver is designed
with an integrated wiring compartment for ease of
installation.
Features
Continuous, flicker-free dimming from 100% to 1%
• Soft-on, Fade-to-Black dimming technology: Fades
smoothly between 0% and 1% when turned on and
off for an incandescent-like experience
PWM dimming meets IEEE1789 throughout entire
dimming range
CE / ENEC rated
• SELV output
Independent control gear
Cord grips and grommets provided
Remote mounting - up to 50 m (164 ft)
Guaranteed dimming performance when used with
Lutron controls:
HomeWorks QS, Energi Savr Node units with
EcoSystem, PowPak dimming module with
EcoSystem, and Quantum systems, allowing for
integration into a planned or existing EcoSystem
lighting control solution.
Energi Savr Node units with DALI, GRAFIK Eye
QS with DALI, and Quantum systems, allowing for
integration into a planned or existing DALI lighting
control solution.
Protected from miswires of input power, up to

Continuous LED Light Run
In a continuous LED light run, it is best to connect the load wires in the middle of the LED light run. Please consult
load manufacturer best practices for any additional consideration in load installation.
When connecting several LED light homeruns, ensure that the wire lengths and wattages match as closely as
possible for best performance.

Notes
• The EcoSystem / DALI Digital Link Supply does not
have to be located at the end of the Digital Link.
• EcoSystem / DALI length is limited by the wire gauge
used for E1 / DA1 and E2 / DA2 as follows:
Wire Size DALI Link Length
1
(max)
2.5 mm
2
(12 AWG) 300 m (984 ft)
1.5 mm
2
(14 AWG) 300 m (984 ft)
1.0 mm
2
(16 AWG) 200 m (656 ft)
0.75 mm
2
(18 AWG) 150 m (492 ft)

DALI does not recommend wire lengths longer than 300 m (984 ft).
EcoSystem / DALI Wiring Diagrams
EcoSystem / DALI Digital Link Overview
• The EcoSystem / DALI Digital Link wiring (E1 and E2)
connects the digital ballasts and drivers together to
form a lighting control system.
Sensors are integrated through the Lutron
EcoSystem / DALI controller.
E1 / DA1 and E2 / DA2 (EcoSystem / DALI digital link
wires) are polarity-insensitive and can be wired in any
topology.
Power is supplied to the EcoSystem / DALI Digital Link
from the control system.
EcoSystem / DALI Digital Link Wiring
• EcoSystem / DALI Digital Link terminals accept
0.75mm
2
to 2.5mm
2
(18AWG to 12AWG) solid or
stranded copper wire per terminal.
Make sure that the supply breaker to the drivers and
EcoSystem / DALI Digital Link Supply is OFF when
wiring.
E1 / DA1 and E2 / DA2 terminals of the drivers can be
daisy chained as shown to the right.
Using two different colors for E1 / DA1 and E2 / DA2 will
reduce confusion when wiring several drivers together.
Consult applicable electrical codes for proper wiring
practices.
