Notes

• 

The 

EDGE

 Power/Data Translator (PDT) board distributes power to the LED fixtures and the optional 

ColorWash control board. 

• 

If installed, the ColorWash control board manages network connectivity, show/effect generation 

 

and other controls.

Power Circuits / Wiring / Circuit Breakers

The EDGE system is compatible with 120V and 277V single phase power systems. The EDGE system needs to 
have power supplied to it from the building’s breaker box to the three AC VOLTAGE IN terminals (LINE, NEUT, 
GRND) at the bottom of the board below the driver fuses. The input circuit shall be supplied with a 20A breaker 
on 120V systems or a 15A breaker on 277V systems. 

Power/Data Translator (PDT) Board

• 

The AC Input terminal blocks (120V/277V) feed 1 or 2 
externally mounted AC/DC drivers, depending upon 
the PDT configuration.  These are installed and wired 
at the factory.

• 

The drivers supply 48VDC to the 4 LED Output 
terminal blocks. See table on page 6 for maximum 
fixture connection details.

• 

One PDT board represents one DMX512 universe; 

 

the maximum number of fixtures that can be run 
off one universe depends on the amount of power 
available from the drivers.

• 

Each leader cable must be terminated at its own 

 

LED output terminal block.

•

(Boot) Button S1

 is located below the 

 

Single Driver Jumper terminals on this board.
