Control

Analogue auto-sensing 0V to - 10V
(full-on) via 10K resistor and silicon
diode, or 0V to +10V (full-on) via 1K
resistor and silicon diode. When DMX
is active, analogue and DMX512 Mux
signal can function simultaneously,
with the dimmer responding to the
highest level.
9 preset effects and 8 user program­mable scenes are selectable via LCD
interface.

Connections

Mains input cable via 32mm cable
entry hole in the rear panel, using a
suitable cable gland. Load connec­tions are made with individual plugs
(maximum 2 per circuit if optional
second sockets are fitted).
Connections also available at rear for
either hard wiring or the fitting of a
multicon socket.

Circuit protection

Each dimmer module is protected by
a 10A thermal/magnetic MCB.

Control input

Analogue 0V - 10V (+/-), via 8 pin
locking DIN connector. DMX512
(1990) multiplexed digital control on
front panel. May be relocated on rear
panel.

Indicators/Connectors

6 LEDs displacing channel output.
LCD for configuration and input moni­toring.

Cooling method

Internal processor controlled fan pro­vides adequate cooling in any
well-ventilated position.

Ordering information
