Overview of Panels 7
Option Cards
Option cards are available for field installation into each of the panels. Each option adds another level
of features and functions to your system.
For more information on the specification or installation of the option cards, see the individual
installation manual supplied either with the relay panel (Echo Relay Panel Mains Feed and Echo Relay
Panel Feedthrough) or with the option card (Ride-Thru Option card, all EchoDIN option cards, and all
Sensor IQ option cards). Manuals are available for download at

Note:
A single ERP Mains Feed and ERP Feedthrough panel supports the use of either the
0–10V Dimming Control option or a DALI Control option, but not both in the same
panel.

The 0–10V Dimming Control option card provides 24 outputs
for control of 4-wire current-sink, 0–10VDC fluorescent or
electronic loads.
• Each of the 24 outputs are rated to control a maximum of
400mA per channel (up to 50 ballasts per channel).
• Loss of power at the Control Processor results in releasing
control levels to full.

The Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI) Control card
controls 24 loops of 64 DALI compatible ballasts in broadcast
mode. Each loop of up to 64 DALI ballasts are linked one to one
with the relay panel circuit for power control.
The DALI ballast must be powered by an external DALI loop
power supply (supplied by others). This supply is connected
externally of the processor. Each DALI loop requires its own
power supply and possibly more than one power supply
depending on the ballast load.
Installation is limited to 64 DALI compatible fluorescent ballasts
per DALI loop.
