features
Multiple Supply Options
Three phase and neutral supply at 25A per
phase, or single phase and neutral supply at
75A.
12 Dimmed Outputs
Each 10A output is independently regulated,
protecting loads from voltage surges and
spikes.
MCB Protection
Each output is protected by a single pole
thermal - magnetic circuit breaker.
Convection Cooled
This device is naturally aspirated, requiring
no mechanical cooling system, when
installed
in
accordance
with
these
instructions.
Many Control Options
Control of this device can be from a
combination of available methods, eg. serial
control port, relay contacts, push button wall
stations, infrared receivers and timeclocks.
Easy high level interface to other popular AV
control systems and Building Management
Systems (BMS) is also available. This
device is DMX512 compatible. Dual serial
control ports for applications such as
network backup and DMX512 compatibility
are available as an option.
Simple Installation
Wall mount enclosure with mounting lugs
facilitate installation. Cable knockouts are
provided, at the top of the enclosure for
supply and load cables, with low voltage
(LV) control at the bottom.

Warning
– This is a class A product. In a domestic
environment this product may cause radio interference, in
which case the user may be required to take adequate
measures.
Read the Instructions
– We recommend that you read
this instruction manual prior to commencement of
installation. Retain instructions and give the end user
Troubleshooting
– If problems are encountered, read
the troubleshooting section on page 8.
Special Programming
– This device will only operate in
basic modes unless programmed via a computer. If
programming is required, contact your local agent for
details. Once the data cable is connected to the devices,
the factory default settings will allow any control panel to
control all channels in all dimmers.
Check Connections
– Treat this device as a
switchboard that has been shipped. Tighten all load
carrying screw connections, as vibrations from transport
can cause MCB and terminal block screws to become
loose.
Power
Sources
– This device should only be operated
from the type of supply specified on the front panel. This
device
must
be earthed.
Output Circuits
– The load on a circuit should not
exceed the specified capacity of 10A. Loads should be
calculated to ensure that the overall maximum capacity of
75A is not exceeded. Some types of load will need to be
de rated. Check the Dimmable Lamps Chart on page 7
for more information.
Megger Testing
– Do not megger test any circuitry
connected to the dimming system, as damage to the
electronics may result.
Mounting Location
– This device must be mounted right
way up, on a vertical surface (refer to page 4 for
mounting instructions). The specified minimum clearance
of 200mm for all sides must be adhered to. Install in a
dry, well-ventilated location. Controllers may emit some
mechanical noise. Take this into account when deciding
the mounting location.
Data Cable
– The recommended cable for connections to
the serial port is screened, stranded RS485 data cable
with three twisted pairs. Part numbers for various
manufacturers are listed on page 6. This cable should be
segregated from mains cables by a minimum distance of
300mm. If anticipated cable runs are over 600 metres for
serial cables, consult your dealer for advice. Do not cut or
terminate live data cables.
Load Type
– The factory default settings are for all
channels to be dimmable. Do not terminate any non-
dimmable loads until the relevant channel has been
programmed as switching only. See the Dimmable
Lamps Chart on page 7. If it is necessary to energise a
switched load before programming has occurred,
temporarily connect the load to the emergency lighting
terminal, instead of the dimmed output terminal, see page
5. Some types of load will need to be de rated, check for
details in the Dimmable Lamps Chart on page 7.
Warning
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR
ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE
THIS DEVICE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
DO NOT ENERGISE UNLESS THE
FRONT COVER IS IN PLACE.
THIS DEVICE MUST BE EARTHED.
INSTALLATION, PROGRAMMING AND
MAINTENANCE MUST BE CARRIED OUT
BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
