Remove the little rubber bung on the driver and pop a very small cross-head screwdriver in and wiggle it until it drops into the groove...then just twizzle it gently to dim or brighten.

Although, if you have a control box, that does the same thing.

Either hole, doesn't matter. Have used both, also had it hung from the stand off holes once with paracord,

If it works it works

yeah pop that rubber cover off on the top of the driver and use a small pozi screwdriver to adjust

Just be careful mashing screw drivers in the hole. The potentiometer, blue device in pic is quite soft plastic and heard a few stories of folk needing new drivers

Designed to be adjusted with a pot trimmer officially

Any idea on the size of the pot trimmer needed? Smallest?

Or are they all the same size?

I use B type with remote dimmer so not something ive done to a meanwell myself.

It looks like a 3362 potentiometer so the correct tool is a H90 by Bourns.

IIRC the pot is quite deeply recessed into the driver so i suspect the H90 shaft isnt long enough to reach the g spot.

One of the reasons is that A type drivers are only supposed to be set once by the installer. Not really designed to be continually adjusted by the user.

I would go for Amazon:

"Trim Pot Adjustment Screwdriver (Trimmer Driver) "

Made in Japan

Alternatively any trimming tool with a 2ml x 0.5ml slot tip.
