8.0 OUTPUT CHANNEL REQUIREMENTS
8.1 Electrical Output Specifications:
Output specifications are defined in table 2 at the beginning of this manual.
Actual output currents and maximum voltages are dependant on the
model configuration, see table 6, 8, or table 10 at the beginning of this
manual for configuration options.
8.2 Output Wiring Requirements
WARNING: All output channels are isolated from each other and
require a separate 2 wire twisted pair for each output LED load.
When connecting LED loads to output cables observe ‘+’ and ‘-‘
polarity connections to prevent damage to loads. To reduce risk of
fire or electric shock, do not interconnect output terminations.
A common anode or cathode wiring method for multiple LED
loads cannot be used for the TRINITY LED Driver Dimmer.
All output wires should be connected to their respective LED loads
before power up to prevent inadvertent shorting of outputs. Shorting
of outputs (+ve to –ve only) will result in a hiccup mode of operation
with automatic recovery after removal of a short.
Output Class 2 circuit wiring must comply with NEC Article 725 wiring
methods or to CEC section 16-210 wiring methods.
Output cabling should be overall shielded cables with twisted pair
conductors (18 AWG ) to minimize cross talk between
channels and minimize Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). Consult
your local Electrical Safety Authority for acceptability in your end
use application.
With appropriate cabling, the TRINITY LED Driver Dimmer may be
remote mounted up to 150 feet (45 meters) from the LED loads.

8.3 Output Voltage Dynamic Range
The Trinity LED Driver Dimmer has a dynamic voltage range options of 6
Vdc to 27 Vdc or 12 Vdc to 47 Vdc depending on configuration as
referenced in table 6/8 at the beginning of this manual. This allows the Trinity LED Driver Dimmer to accommodate a range in both number of LEDs
utilized in a string as well as a variation in forward voltage drops. To determine the maximum voltage requirement for any LED array configuration, the
maximum voltage drops of the LEDs and output cable/conductor voltage
drops (when remote mounting the LED load from the TRINITY LED Driver
Dimmer) must be taken into consideration.
8.4 Number of LED’s Per-Channel Calculation Example.
How may 700mA LED’s can I hook up to a Trinity LED Driver Dimmer model
66-12-0700-DMX-3? The fixture needs to be mounted 150’ away from the
driver.
First thing we need to know is the voltage drop of the LED. From the LED
datasheet we find that the maximum voltage drop of 1 LED is 3.5V(V
LED
).
From Table 6 on at the beginning of this manual the 66-12-0700-DMX-3, the
maximum output voltage per channel is 27V(V
MAX
). Dividing the LED voltage
into the maximum available voltage gives us:
So a maximum of 7 of these LED’s can be driven off of one channel.
Now the voltage drop of the cable has to be taken into account. To do that
we need to know how much headroom (V
Headroom
) we have with the number
of LED’s and the maximum rating of the unit.
We have 2.5V of headroom with 7 of these LED connected. Now we need to
determine the voltage drop of the wiring. Using an online wire resistance
calculator we enter a length of 150ft and a current (Amps) of 0.7 (700mA),
giving us a voltage drop of 0.98V over a 18 AWG wire. We must multiply
this by 2 as there are 2 wires running to the LED (one positive wire, one
negative wire). So for a 18AWG cable at 150 feet, the total voltage drop is
1.96V. This is under our headroom limit, so 7 of these LED`s can be used per
channel with 18AWG wire.
This model Trinity LED Driver Dimmer has 12 channels (from table 6) so a
total of 84 of these LED`s can be driven by this Trinity LED Driver Dimmer.

The 3 position rotary switches sets the DMX address of the
TRINITY LED Driver Dimmer.
IMPORTANT: Each channel within the TRINITY DMX requires a DMX
address. The rotary switch address identifies the Base
Address (BA), which is output channel ‘1’. Output channel 2 will be
the next address (BA+1) and so on up to output channel 12 (BA + 11).
The TRINITY DMX will automatically detect a change in address in
less than 2 seconds. No recycling of the AC input is required to implement a change in address location.
In the case of daisy chained TRINITY DMX units, only the last
unit in the chain is terminated by means of a 120 ohm +5%/-10%
impedance inserted into the DMX connector.

10.4 DMX Cabling
The DMX cable should meet EIA485 requirements. The characteristics
for this cable include low capacitance, twisted pair, shielded, and
designed for high speed data.
Twisted pair Ethernet cabling referred to as Category 5 cable may be
a cabling option upon successful evaluation in the end use application.
In the end use application, proper separation between control wiring
from the DMX interface and AC mains must be observed in
accordance with the applicable safety standards and/or NEC/CEC
requirements.
The maximum permissible cable length between DMX Controller
(transmitter) and last TRINITY is 1000 feet (300 meters). A DMX split-
ter (preferably isolated) may be required to extend the cable length.
