INTRODUCTION
The NSI DDS 5300 and DDS 5600 dimmers represent a key part of a state of the art, integrated lighting control
system. These dimmers may operate in a "stand alone" mode for automated lighting of displays or may be combined
with an NSI memory lighting console for total lighting control.
The DDS 5300 provides four channels of 300 watts each while the DDS 5600 provides four 600 watt channels.
