My clipsal switches for DIN modules are all momentary and just wired as
Live
and Switched Live to C and 1. One exception (2-way landing light) where I
used 2 for the "second live" (I forget the technical term if one
exists for
the extra live in 2-way apps) but more to keep it tidy than to actually
implement two way lighting since I don't actually need the second live any
more.

IIRC the differences are Memory DIM and improved reliability. Not sure if
"Soft Start" came in with the LD10 or LD11.

I did a doc after my installation but I can't find it. If you don't manage
to get any further, let me know and I will try and find it on backup. I can
also charge up the digital camera to take some pics of the installed
switches if that would help.

HTH,
