General Description
The SC802 is an Eight channel DC voltage only controller (Cross-Fader/Lighting
animation) capable of producing slow level changes( Color Mixing ) as well as Quick ON/
OFF ( Animation)
A functional block diagram of the SC802 is shown in Figure 1. SC802 contains the
equivalent of 2 sets of four solid-state relays (SSR) 8 dimmers, with two power line
feed. Each dimmer is rated at a maximum output current of 2.5 Amperes. The SSR
dimmers are controlled by low-voltage DC signals from the logic circuit on the board.
These signals are electrically-isolated by Optical couplers from all line voltage
elements. The SC802 logic board contains a microprocessor programmed to generate
16 user-selectable light sequences or patterns at an adjustable rate (the SC802 is also
available with a “SPELLER” pattern or custom patterns upon request). A rotary selector
is used to select the pattern and a second one is used to set the rate or speed. Patterns
and speed can be monitored by Eight LED's that represent the outputs of the SC802.
The SC802-12DC accepts two inputs from two 12 VDC power supplies 10Amps each.
The SC802-24DC accepts two inputs from two 24 VDC power supplies 10Amps each.
