FLX Power Recti
fi er DPR-2700 ( R9899432 )
For critical lighting installations (100% brightness) where no interruption of the event can be afford, it is rec-
ommended to reduce the maximum number of FLX-60 pixels per FLX Power System DPR-2700 (80%). So, in
case a recti
fi er fails, the remaining power is suf fi cient to power the connected FLX system for 100%. Other-
wise, it could be that the last pixels in the strings are underpowered which will be noticeable in the displayed
content.
For monitoring and diagnostics of the FLX Power System DPR-2700 consult the operation manual of the FLX
Power System DPR-2700.
Power cables and power splitter cables
Barco offers two lengths of FLX power cables, 5 and 25 meter. Only these power cables and the custom made power cables, which
meets the requirements as described below, may be used to connect the FLX-HUB with the FLX Power System DPR-2700 (or other
Barco approved power system for FLX).
Barco offers also an FLX power splitter cable which has four output plugs. The normally eight protected circuits per output plug are
split-up into two protected circuits per output plug. This means that more FLX-HUB units can be connected to the same FLX Power
System DPR-2700. However, take into account that maximum 2048 FLX-60 pixels per power output port of the FLX Power System
DPR-2700 are allowed. With other words, maximum 256 pixels per protected circuit.

Custom made FLX power cable
Some FLX applications (especially fi xed installs) requires a custom made FLX Power Cable. Therefor, Barco offers the male and
female multi pole power plugs in separated kits. So, the customer can make his own FLX Power Cable with the length he needs
(maximum 50 meter).
