FDX 3000 Dimmer Racks
65
Fuses
The power input has three panel-mount fuse holders to protect against internal failure. The fuses
should only be replaced with the same type (2.5 A, 20 mm).
Regulatory Information
The FDX3000 rack is certified to the following CE standards:
• Safety: EN61439-1 (Low voltage Switchgear and Controlgear assemblies)
• Electromagnetic Immunity: EN61547 (EMC Immunity for Lighting Systems)
Initial Setup
Module Count
The FDX3000 controller supports between 1 and 96 dimmers. The number of dimmers is configured
using DIP switches on the backplane of the controller.
To configure or alter the number of modules configured in your FDX system:
1: Turn off power to the rack.
2: Remove the two CEM3 modules from the FDX3000 carrier.
3: Set the DIP switches in binary to the number of modules in your rack. The DIP switches are
counted from left to right as follows:
For example, to set up the rack for 96 modules, set DIP switches 32 and 64 to ON.
4: Reinstall the CEM3 modules.
5: Power up the rack.
Module Types
The following module types are supported in FDX:
• Blank : Used where a blank plate is fitted; gives no control and no feedback
• NoV-Nol : A dimmer module with no current or voltage feedback
• V-Nol : A dimmer module with voltage feedback but no current feedback
• NoV-I : A dimmer module with current feedback but no voltage feedback
• V-I : A dimmer module with voltage and current feedback
Advanced Features in FDX
FDX3000 supports all module types available in the FDX series of racks, including the DP90 and DP90S
series of modules.
Advanced Features in an FDX rack allow modules that provide Voltage or Current feedback data to be
monitored and to report errors both at the local UI and at ETC console products and feedback
software.
