WARNING

Warning

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR
ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE
THIS DEVICE TO RAIN OR
MOISTURE.
DO NOT ENERGISE UNLESS THE
FRONT COVER IS IN PLACE.
THIS DEVICE MUST BE EARTHED.
INSTALLATION, PROGRAMMING AND
MAINTENANCE MUST BE CARRIED
OUT BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

Simple Supply Requirement

230V 50Hz single phase at 40A.

4 Dimmed Outputs

Each dimmed 10A output is independently
regulated, protecting loads from voltage surges
and spikes. These outputs are overload
protected by individual 10A circuit breakers.

4 Switched Outputs

Each switched output is rated at 10A. These
outputs are overload protected by individual
10A circuit breakers.

4 Control Outputs

Each of the 4 optically isolated outputs can be
configured to be either 1-10V, DSI Serial control
or DALI broadcast, covering the latest types of
HF Fluorescent Ballasts. Also compatible with
1-10V, DSI and DALI dimmable electronic
transformers. These outputs can operate in
tandem or independently of the switched
outputs.

Convection Cooled

This device is convection cooled, requiring no
forced cooling system when installed in
accordance with these instructions.

Many Control Options

Control of this device can be from any of the
SceneSelect control panels and ancillary
products.

Simple Installation

Wall mount enclosure with mounting lugs
facilitates installation. A cable gland plate
is provided at the top of the enclosure for
supply and load cables and a knockout for
the low voltage (LV) control at the bottom.

Note:
Channel 1 (leading edge phase control) &
Channel 5 (switched output): Combined rating = 10A
Channel 2 & Channel 6: Combined rating = 10A
Channel 3 & Channel 7: Combined rating = 10A
Channel 4 & Channel 8: Combined rating = 10A

Important Safeguards

Read Instructions We recommend that you read
this Instruction Manual prior to commencement of
installation. Retain these instructions and give the
end user the 'Changing Scenes Using the Program
Key' guide on page 8, if applicable.
Troubleshooting - If problems are encountered,
please check the troubleshooting section on page
9 before calling Ex-Or technical support.
Special Programming This device will only
operate in ‘basic’ mode unless programmed via a
computer. Should programming be required,
contact Ex-Or for details. Once the data cable is
connected to the device(s), the factory default
settings will allow any control panel to control all
channels in all dimmers.
Power Sources This device should only be
operated from the type of supply specified on the
front panel. This device must be earthed.
Output Circuits The load on a single circuit
should not exceed 10A for a dimmed channel and
10A for a switched channel. Loads should be
calculated to ensure that the total device load of
40A (10A per pair of channels: 1 & 5, 2 & 6, 3 & 7,
4 & 8) is not exceeded.
Load Control Circuits If this device is being

used to control 1-10V, DSI or DALI broadcast
HF Fluorescent Ballasts, a 2 core LV control
cable is required to be run to the loads, in
addition to the mains feed.

Load Type Default settings are for load control
outputs to be 1-10V. Check to see what type of HF
Fluorescent Ballasts are in the luminaires. Do not
terminate the control lines to any DSI or DALI loads
until the relevant channel has been programmed
as DSI or DALI. When connecting 1-10V load
control lines, pay attention that the correct polarity
is maintained.
Megger Testing Do not megger test any circuitry
connected to the dimming system, as damage to
the electronics may result.
Mounting Location This device must be mounted
the right way up, on a vertical surface (refer to page
4 for mounting instructions). The specified
minimum clearance of 200mm for all sides must be
adhered to. Install in a dry, well-ventilated location.
This device may emit some mechanical noise.
Take this into account when deciding the mounting
location.

Data Cable The recommended minimum grade of
cable for connections to the programming socket is
Category 5 FTP (screened). This cable should be
segregated from mains cables by a minimum
distance of 300mm. If expected cable runs are over
600 metres for bus cables or 12 metres for
analogue cables, consult Ex-Or for advice. Do not
cut or terminate live data cables.
