AMX Lighting - Enclosure Worksheet Guide
Control cards always take up a space, usually Slot 1. If a control card is used in Slot 1, then do not place
a module also in Slot 1, even though the program allows you to. (There is no real-time error correction
with the template, and it will allow for certain non-valid configurations.) If an
RDD-DM4 is placed in Slot 1 it takes up two module spaces and will, therefore, occupy Slot 2 as well. If
the user forgets that certain modules require two spaces, they can over-populate an enclosure; there are
no error warnings.
When specifying worksheet Dimmer numbers (DIM#), be sure to enter the Dimmer information in the
appropriate channel row. Some modules allow up to three dimmers or switches in a slot and, therefore,
three rows are provided for Dimmer information.
Using the Worksheet
The Usage section will explain how to use and fill out each cell in a column or row.
Columns and Cells
The following describes the various column choices for each drop-down menu or text field. These are the
available choices to enter data into the worksheet cells. You're expected to know which item to place in
each field or otherwise note any unknown choices or guesses.
Enclosure
: The first thing to choose is an enclosure to put system cards and modules into.
The Enclosure column has only one drop-down cell with seven choices. The
RDA-ENC8W enclosure is divided into two sheets marked
a
and
b
. The
a
sheet is for the top
four slots and the
b
sheet if for the bottom four slots. Refer to FIG. 4 on page 3 for a more
detailed view of the RDA-ENC8W. This drop-down menu contains the choices listed below:
Control Card
: Most systems will have a control card in Slot 1 taking up the first enclosure
space. Because of the use of double and triple modules, an enclosure may use up to three
control cards. An enclosure may use control cards at different voltages in the same enclosure.
If the enclosure uses a DM series of integrated modules (containing a control card), omit this
section.
CONTROL CARD
uses a drop-down menu containing the choices listed below:
Module
: There are two fields in the cell marked
MODULE
. This third column uses a drop-
down menu that specifies which Radia dimming or switching module to use for the slot. Use
the drop-down menu on the left to choose things that dim and the drop-down one on the right
to choose switches and accessories. Choose only one module from either the dimmers or
switches menu. The DM series of modules include a control card. When specifying DM
modules, no control card is needed in column two (Control Cards). There are two drop-down
fields in one cell: Dimmers (left) and Switches/Accessories (right).
MODULE Dimmers
