Step 9 - Connect control conductors
Follow the instructions below for the type of control you are installing.
Note: All control terminals accept 24-14 AWG. (.02-2mm
2
) wire and are all Class 2. All cable shielding and all drain wires (wires
connected to cable shielding) must be insulated.
DMX512 or CMX:

ANALOG 0-10V
For analog 0-10V applications, a Universal Control Module must be used.
• Locate the terminal block in the rack labeled “0-10VDC Dimmer Control Inputs” and connect the control wires to terminals 1-24. Make
sure to connect at least one common per group of 12 inputs.
Step 10 - Seal unused openings
•
Seal any unused mounting and conduit access holes in the rack. This is necessary to maintain proper ventilation while the rack is
operating. If conduits are large and relatively empty, or if they connect to a gutter nearby, they must be sealed also.
