STICK-DE3

Sunlite Touch Sensitive Intelligent Control Keypad

Overview

The feature rich lighting controller has been designed to provide a control solution for the most demanding of projects, whilst maintaining an easy to use panel of touch sensitive buttons. The controller integrates a graphical color screen allowing scene photos to be displayed. Easily view the selected zone, scene name and design without the need to navigate through complex menus. Change the speed, color and dimmer using the circular palette.

The lighting levels, color and eects can be

programmed from a PC, Mac, Android, iPad or iPhone using the included software.

EASY INSTALLATION

1. Mount an electrical box inside the wall

The controller can be installed in any standard electrical backbox. If you use a double size box, you can insert the power supply inside.

2. Connect the wires

POWER: Connect a 5.5V or 6V DC 0.6A ACDC supply. Be sure to not invert the + and the ground.

DMX: Connect the DMX cable to the lighting receivers (Leds, Dimmers, Fixtures..) (for XLR: 1=ground 2=dmx- 3=dmx+)

3. Mount the interface on the wall

www.nicolaudie.com

V 1.05

First, mount the back side of the interface on the wall with 2 or more screws Secondly, plug the connectors :

- DMX and power (connector block or RJ45)

- Ethernet cable The front panel is mounted by pressing it against the back plate and then sliding down. 2 screws should then be attached underneith to hold the controller in place.

Dry Contact Port Triggering

It is possible to start scenes using the input ports (contact closure). To activate a port, a brief contact of atleast 1/25 second must be established between the ports (1...8) and the ground (GND). Note:

the scene will not be switched o when the switch is released.

P1 P2 P3 P4 ... GND

BLACKOUT Relay (energy saving)

A relay can be connected between the RELAY and GND sockets

of the 20 pin extension socket. This can be used to turn o other

equipment such as lighting drivers. The signal is connected when the controller is in standby.

RS232 Triggering

Make a cable using the 3 pins : TX, RX and G (GND) Set the RS232 parameters to : 9600bds 8 bits, no Parity, 2 Stop bits

- To play a scene, send 3 bytes : 1 x y 255

- To stop a scene, send 3 bytes : 2 x y 255

- To pause a scene, send 3 bytes : 3 x y 255

- To release a pause, send 3 bytes : 4 x y 255

- To reset a scene, send 3 bytes : 5 x y 255 When (y)=0, (x) can be set between 0 and 255

-to stop scene 145, send the command: 2 145 0 255 When (y)=1, (x) can be set between 0 and 243 to trigger scenes 256-499

-to play scene 300, send the command: 1 255 45 255

Infra Red

The controller works with the ocial IR remote control, however there

is no receiver. A 36khz infra red receiver can be connected, such as the TSOP34836 by Vishay Semiconductors. Farnell ref: 4913127. This can be attached to the 20 pin connector. It’s a good idea to add a resistor and capacitor to surpress power supply disturbance.

Example of relay : FINDER Ref.

22.23.9.012.4000

Network Control

The controller can be connected to a local network, allowing it to be controlled from a smartphone or tablet over WiFi.

• Connect the controller to a router or switch with an RJ45 cable

• The controller is set by default to get an IP address from the

router via DHCP. If the network is not working with DHCP, a manual IP address and subnet mask can be set using the Hardware Manager

• If the network has a lewall enabled, allow ports 2430 and 2431

TCP Triggering

The controller can be connected to an existing automation system over a network and triggered via TCP package on port 2431 or UDP packets on 2430. Refer to the remote protocol document for more information.

Setting up the Controller

iPhone/iPad/Android Control

The controller can be used with one of 3 dierent apps. Each

available at Google Play and the App store.

DMX Lightpad 3

Designed to work seamlessly with the controller, DMX Lightpad 3 provides an easy way to control your lights over a local WiFi network. Use the wheel to change the dimmer,

color or speed, and the arrows to select scenes and eects

just like the wall panel. Swipe down to reveal quick access scene selection buttons.

Easy Remote

Create an entirely customized remote controller for your tablet or smartphone. Easy Remote is a powerful and intuitive app allowing you to easily add buttons, faders, color wheels and

more. Connect to a WiFi network and the app will nd all

compatible devices.

Arcolis

The Arcolis application is a comprehensive tool allowing you to directly control and re-program the controller from your smartphone or tablet. This is a simple application which can be used by just about everyone in any situation. Mobile, easy to use and powerful, Arcolis is the ideal controller for dimming or switching traditional, LED and RGB color mixing DMX

lighting xtures. Program static and dynamic lighting scenes and eects.

Programming the Controller

The controller be programmed from a PC, Mac, Tablet or Smartphone using the software available on our website. Refer to the corresponding software manual for more

information. The rmware can be updated using the

Hardware Manager which is included with the programming software.

ESA Pro Software (Windows) - Timeline + Multi-Zone

Hardware Manager (Windows/Mac) - Firmware, clock..

Color Temperature Mixing

In addition to mixing RGB using the color pallet, it’s also possible to mix up to 3 custom colors. This is useful for mixing color temperature. To set this up, choose the correct pro-

le for your lighting xture when programming the controller. Proles for common channel congurations can be found in

the ‘Generic’ folder: RGBW for Red, Green, Blue, White RGBA for Red, Green, Blue, Amber RGBY for Red, Green, Blue, Yellow WWCW for Warm White, Cold White

Once your show has been written to the controller, tap the color mode button and use the circular palette to change the

color. If your lighting xture has more than 3 color channels,

http://www.nicolaudie.com/smartphone-tablet-apps.htm

tap the color mode button a second time to mix the additional colors.

Settings Menu

To access the settings menu, hold the standby button for 3 seconds.

• Use the arrow buttons or palette to scrol through the menus

• Use the area buttons to navigate forwards and backwards

• The ‘undo’ button can also be used to navigate forwards

About: check the rmware release date and version number and assign a name for the controller

Service

Servicable parts include:

• Memory card - used to store the scenes

• Battery - used to store the clock/calendar

• DMX Chips - used to drive the DMX (see p2.)

*To replace the Li-Ion rechargeable battery on the DE3 :

1. You need a rechargeable 3.6v LIR 2032 replacement battery

2. Remove the back panel by pulling down and sliding it out.

3. Using a paper clip push the battery from the bottom so it slides out of its cage.

4. Slide the replacement battery in from the top, making sure the positive side is facing up.

5. Replace the back panel by pushing it up into place.
