ABOUT

The AC400 DMX 4x8 is the ideal companion for powering Plus and L 
Plus units up to 400 watts. Its rugged housing includes several mounting options 
along with four ¼-20 (SAE) threads for attaching clamps, making it suitable for over-
head setups. Locking connections provide AC input and DC output along with DMX 
pass-through. The unit operates all “Plus+Compatible” Hybrid fixtures up to 400W. The 
internal electronics include genuine LiteDimmer circuits known for smooth low end 
dimming, flicker-free operation, and rock solid reliability. Simple manual control is 
provided through the backlit display along with access to DMX settings. A 12VDC
convenience outlet provides power for accessories such as LiteDimmer Wireless 
receivers or DMX consoles. Powering the AC400 DMX 4x8 is simple. It operates on any 
AC voltage between 90 and 305VAC and includes unique overload circuit protection 
called CurrentSense. CurrentSense technology allows for the 400W capacity to be 
doubled to 800W — still only allowing 400W of power to be used — without causing 
any damage to the fixture or the dimmer. Because 400W of power is being distributed 
evenly to the entire 800W-capable fixture(s), the result is ultrasoft light that is perfect 
for intimate setups. Be sure to see all other Plus+Compatible products that are useable 
with your new Lit AC400 DMX 4x8 unit.
