    To save energy, you might want to turn off power supply when all the lights that are powered by it are set to 0%.This will conserve more power when lights are off.

    To prolong lifetime of power supply, you should use Smart Rule to turn off power supply after all lights are turned off for certain time:

    1. Open switch that controls Power supply
    2. Add Smart Rule: Equation

    ← Equation


    Variables

    Dimmer 1
    Dimmer 2
    24V Light


    Le = 0.20
    Le1 = 0
    St = 1 (On)

    Equation

    (Le = 0) and (Le1 = 0) and !St
    alternative: (Le = 0) and (Le1 = 0) and (St = 0)
