:
•
Using a small adaptor cable, the LumenDimM4 can be used as a wireless
data receiver to deliver DMX to other devices. It can also be used as a wired
DMX dimmer: the miniplug DMX port becomes an input when the device is
not linked to a transmitter.
•
When using the LumenDimM4 for cinema (motion picture capture), PWM
frequencies can be adjusted for the smoothest dimming without banding or
other artifacts.
•
The LumenDimM4 has a wide variety of dimmer curves that can ring
telephones, position servo motors, and more.
•
Usi
ng the RC4 Flkr Effects Engine™, you can create many unique effects
including candle flicker, analog tv screen noise, welding spark, and much
more.
•
An HSL (Hue/Saturation/Level) processor can be enabled, making it easy to
find a specific color and dim it up and down without color variation.

Caring for Your LumenDimM4
•
The LumenDimM4 should not be used with AC power or with any voltage
higher than 35VDC.
Doing so will severely damage the device and is
extremely dangerous for the operator.
•
Do not exceed the maximum total power handling of the LumenDimM4,
which is 16A. That is 200W at 12V, 400W at 24V, shared across the four
dimmer channels.
•
Always use a fuse or circuit breaker at the source of power and always use
an appropriate wire size for the fuse rating. For example, if using a 15A
fuse, use wire that can safely carry 15A.
•
The LumenDimM4 should be kept away from excessive heat, cold, dust and
moisture.
•
Do not im
merse in water or other fluids.
•
Dimmers generate heat when operating. Allow space for air to move around
the unit for cooling, especially when using high-current loads.
The LumenDimM4 is a high-power, high-current device. Failing to observe
appropriate safety precautions can result in fire or other risk. RC4 Wireless
cannot be held responsible or liable in such cases. Operate the LumenDimM4
at your own risk.
