Hi,
I'm using a AWMR-230 receiver with a AWST-8800 transmitter.
When I switch off a lamp with it, the power is slowly going to zero. When I switch it on, it slowly brightens to maximum.
Is it possible to use this combination and make it switch instantly, in stead of slowly?
The receiver is not a dimmer, so I don't really understand this behaviour.

Re: AWMR-230 with AWST-8800
The AWMR is just an ON/OFF reciever so there shouldn't be any dimming functionality. (The AWMR210 is a dimmer)
Do you use a power saving lamp or such?

I use an old fashion incandescent light of 60 W.
When I use a saving lamp, it flickers when the switch is off so that's not possible.

It's not defect. I wrote this issue to Klikaanklikuit, and here's their answer:
But it means that you can not switch most saving lamps with it!
So it's not a bug, it's a feature...Vanaf juli 2009 (datecode 0907 en of serienummer dat begint met 0907xxxxxx) zijn onze dimmers en AWMR-230 voorzien van een zgn. Soft start- en stop systeem, waarbij de lamp langzaam aan- en uitgaat.
De AWMR-230 is een schakelaar, maar het schakelen loopt wel via een dimproces. Als u een dimbare spaarlamp heeft, werkt dat op zich prima met de AWMR-230. Voor het meest actuele overzicht van goed bruikbare lampen, verwijs ik graag naar onze site (advies / lampenwijzen)

Re: AWMR-230 with AWST-8800
I guess you'll have to use the same system as with a fibaro dimmer, some sort of bypass.
Switching them on and off probably will still flicker, but when they're off they won't.
Seeing that the TS uses incandescent it shouldn't be a problem...

Re: AWMR-230 with AWST-8800
That means you can use CFL lamps (spaarlampen) but they have to be 'dimmable' CFLs which are quite expensive.
But do check out the compatibility overview on the kaku website because you might find a reasonably priced CFL that works.

Re: AWMR-230 with AWST-8800
Cannot speak for the awmr-230(only have the awmr-210) but with a fibaro dimmer I can use a non-dimmable CFL. For this I disabled the dimmer-function and dim-levels however. Dunno how it works with the dimmable variant.
