Dimmer is a lighting control that raises or lowers brightness instead of simply turning a light fully on or off.
Example of Dimmer
A Dinner scene can lower bright overhead lighting, warm accent lighting, and keep pathway lights on for safe movement through the home. In that kind of Davis lighting control project, the term Dimmer would describe a lighting control that raises or lowers brightness instead of simply turning a light fully on or off. Davis would use that understanding to account for fixture and dimmer compatibility, keypad scenes, daylight behavior, and final light-level tuning, then test the result in the actual room, document the related components, and show the client how to use the feature without needing to manage the technical details behind it.
