Product description
The Preset 8 is a lighting control station that stores eight preset looks. Each look, or scene, has an
associated slider that adjusts the light levels for that look. The preset looks are recorded into the
Preset 8 by capturing the output of any DMX512 console.
Preset 8 systems may consist of single or multiple stations. Systems with multiple stations utilize a
Main/Remote concept in that the looks are recorded into the Main stations with the remote stations
controlling some, or all, of the levels.
Environmental
Operating temperature: 0-40º C (32-104° F)
Operating humidity: 10-90% non-condensing

A common “doorbell” transformer can be used as a power source. The Doug Fleenor Design model
XFMR can be used to power up to four Preset 8 stations.
System layout
Cabling used for DMX512 signals to and from the Preset 8 stations must be specified for DMX512
usage. Examples include Belden 9829 and Belden 9729 or their equal.
Low voltage power cabling for the Preset 8 may be run in the same conduit with the DMX512 cabling.
Doug Fleenor Design suggests using #16 AWG wire for station power cabling.
