6. INSTALLATION
5.2 Switched Enable Input/Outputs
If a remote switching panel such as the LIGHTMIX (TSB431) or REMOTE SWITCH PANEL
(LSP430) is used to enable the MULTIPAC's it should be connected to this DIN socket. The power for
the switch panel can be supplied from the LIGHTMIX via pin 6 of this cable.
If the switches A-D are not used to enable the 4 output zones they can be connected to an additional
SWITCHPAC via this socket to control additional switched effects.
5.3 Switched Enable Outputs
A SWITCHPAC can be connected to this socket via another 7 pin DIN lead. D.C. Power from the pack
can be fed to the controller via pin 6.
5.4 Strobe Enable Output
If the strobe enable facility is to be used it can be connected to a pin 7 on either of the switched enable
sockets. This should be connected to the low voltage (10V) enable input on the strobe controller with
a 2 core cable.
The LIGHTMIX is designed for 19" rack mounting, and occupies 3U of panel space. It can also be
panel mounted through a cut out of 450 m.m. x 128 m.m. The unit is 50 m.m. deep and requires a total
depth behind the front panel of 100 m.m. to accommodate the DIN & Jack connectors.
If the mains power supply ( PSU431) is fitted a total depth of 120m.m. is required.
When the LIGHTMIX is installed with a touch panel and a separate power supply the wiring can be
greatly simplified using the CONTROLLER INTERFACE UNIT (CIU442). All the connections to the
control units can be made with standard 1m DIN leads and the wiring to the slave packs hard-wired
using 6 or 8 core cable.
A number of installer options are available which can be selected using the DIL switches on the rear
panel. If required the LIGHTMIX can be set up so that a chase pattern is running whenever the unit
is switched on.
The D.C. Inputs on the Zone C & D output sockets can be set up as D.C. Outputs if they are to be
connected to additional units requiring a D.C. supply.
If the remote enable inputs on the slave packs are connected they can be controlled by either the front
panel switches A - D, or from an external touch panel. In the latter case the front panel switches can
be disabled via the installer option switch No.3.
The front panel Blackout switch can also be disabled using installer option switch No. 4.
