RE82

• Fast Acting Magnetic Circuit Breakers

• Dim/Non-Dim Mode by Channel

• 120/240V 80 Amp

• LMX-128 or DMX-512 Protocol

• UL-508 Compliant

The RE82 is an 8 channel rack mount dimmer with a maximum capacity of 2,400 watts per channel giving a total of 19,200
watts. It is suitable for church, stage, theater, school, night club, live performances and other event and artistic applications.

The RE82 is controlled by a lighting console. The unit uses the LMX-128 or DMX-512 control protocol. Channels A - D and/or
channels E - H may be switched to operate in”relay” mode. In relay mode channels are either full on or full off (non-dim)
depending on console fader position. The unit is overcurrent and overtemperature protected. A fan is used to ensure proper
cooling. Dimming channels may be reassigned in multiples of 4 channels via switches in the front panel.

Control Output Connection Options: Duplex outlet panel with 2 connections per channel, External terminal strip (includes
knockout cover), Stagepin panel with 1 connection per channel, Patchbay panel with 4 powerlock connections per channel
Socapex connector panel (wiring per customer selection)

Rack Mount Dimmer

Architect & Engineer’s Specications

The dimming system shall have 8 circuits with
a load capacity of 2400 Watts per circuit. Each
circuit is protected by a 20 Amp fast acting

magneticcircuitbreaker.Anallowanceof200%

overhead capacity is employed in the circuit
design. The dimming system shall have a rise
time of not less than 350 microseconds.
Programming setup and memory attributes is via
front panel dip switches. A user may program
the system setup, dimmer attributes of Dim or
Relay. LED indicators display individual channel
levels, signal presence, and input power status.
The dimming system uses the USITT standard
DMX-512 protocol in the “D” version and LMX­128 protocol in the “L” version for direct control
of the dimming circuits.

Power requirements of the dimming system shall
be 2 hots of 120VAC Single/Three phase service.
Capacity shall be 80 Amps per leg. DMX-512 is
connected through a standard 5 pin XLR c
onnector. LMX-128 is connected through a
standard 3 pin XLR connector. A variety of
electrical output connections are available
including Stage Pin, Socapex, Patch Bay
(Powerlock), Duplex (Edison) and External Ter­minal Strip. Mounting of the dimming
system shall be on standard 19” EIA rack mount.

Dimensions are 3.5”H x 19”W x 13”D and the
weight shall be 28 lbs.

The dimming system shall be a
Lightronics RE82.
