RUN LENGTHS - FIXTURE MAXIMUM
The maximum number of fixtures that can be driven in a single run is determined by the
supply voltage and the collective power requirements for the fixtures. The maximum
total lengths listed here can be formed from any combination of 1’ or 4’ fixtures. Fixtures
with differing LED color options can be mixed freely as they all adhere to the same power
specifications (within their LO/EO/SO/HO types).
Model Power 100VAC 230VAC XTR Driver XTR Driver
draw 120VAC 277VAC 4000 8000
LO (2.5W/ft) 200’ (61m) 400’ (122m) 700’ (213m) 2x 700’ (213m)
EO (5W/ft) 200’ (61m) 400’ (122m) 700’ (213m) 2x 700’ (213m)
SO (12W/ft) 100’ (30.5m) 200’ (61m) 300’ (91.5m) 2x 300’ (91.5m)
HO (20W/ft) 50’ (15m) 100’ (30.5m) 150’ (45m) 2x 150’ (45m)
RUN LENGTHS - OVERALL MAXIMUM
In addition to remaining within the maximum permitted length of fixtures in a single run (as
discussed above), you also need to adhere to the working limits for the overall length of the
whole installation
, ie the total length fixtures in the run
plus
all their additional feed and
link cabling, as listed below.
Note: These limits are imposed only by the power characteristics. The length of the DMX control
feed to the first XTR fixture could potentially be up to the usual DMX standard limit (3,900
feet/1200m) with appropriate cable choice, although
Acclaim Lighting recommends a maximum
DMX / RDM run of 1,500’ (457m) without buffering (see ‘Important cabling considerations’ on
page 17 and “Tips for achieving successful DMX control” on page 20).
Supply Maximum overall run length
voltage (fixtures plus all extra cabling)
100/120VAC (10A max) 200’ (61m)
230/277VAC (10A max) 400’ (121m)
380VDC (XTR Driver) 800’ (243m)
IMPORTANT: Ensure the voltage drop across the entire run does not exceed 9%.
