Installation
This section of the manual describes the process of connecting a DC supply, DALI, and DMX
512-A
lead to the eDIDIO.
The example is diagrammatic only as it depends on the configuration of the DALI and DMX
512-A
lines.
Figure 1. Example Wiring diagram showing DMX
512-A
and DALI. Other actions are also easily programmed in addition to those shown
DALI Line connection
The DALI line wires are connected in the screw terminals at the top of the enclosure. You must not have two DALI line
power supplies on the same DALI line. DALI Standard requires a minimum cable diameter of 1mm sq (larger for longer
runs) and no more than 2Vdc voltage drop.
DMX
512-A
Line Connection
The DMX
512-A
line wires are connected in the screw terminals at the top of the enclosure. Do not confuse the DALI and
DMX
512-A
lines: as connecting a DALI bus PSU to a DMX
512-A
line will cause irreversible damage.
Inputs
The inputs of the eDIDIO allow for short, long, and latching presses by connecting the input pin source to a ground pin
source. This means that any potential-free contact, such as a switch mech or relay device, that can connect two wires
together will be able to be used as an input device for the eDIDIO.
The inputs 1-8 will show ~3.3VDC (In reference to the GND pin) when floating, allowing for easy testing via multimeter.
I/Os 9 to 12 will initially show a higher VDC and decay down to 3.3VDC over time. A display option is also available
using the keypad/menu to show the state of each input.
Menu and Display
The eDIDIO has a 128 x 96-pixel display that can show the time, status, and other useful information.
Home Screen
The home screen displays the time and date, as well as battery, temperature, and connection status icons. The
battery icon will show when the PCB battery is below its recommended voltage, the temperature icon will display in
