lightJuice CV4 User Guide
Connecting a load
lightJuice CV4 is a constant voltage dimmer,
which means that the output voltage is
defined by the power supply. The LED fixtures
connected to the outputs must be designed
for constant voltage operation, which means
they will contain their own current-limiting
mechanism.
lightJuice CV4 is designed to drive 24V rated
RGBW constant voltage LED strip, in common
anode configuration. Normally, Red, Green,
Blue and White will be connected to outputs
1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively (see Connections
diagram).
The common anode can be connected to any
of the outputs marked ‘+’.
The device is rated to provide up to 3A of
current, which equates to a total output power
of 72W.
