To ensure the normal total working hours of this

dimmer pack, please observe the following

suggestions.

If dimmer pack is installed in a rack, make sure

the rack has adequate ventilation. Otherwise the

unit will become overheat and will result in a

malfunction.

The maximum output current of each channel is

10A: this is a testing condition and must be held

for30minutesmaximum.

If the output current of each channel is less than

CONNECTINGCONTROLSIGNALS

The dimmer pack, in order to be remotely

controlled, requires a digital signal DMX 512

(1990). The connection between controller and

dimmer pack and between dimmer pack and

dimmer pack must be made with twocore

shielded cable with a section of at least 0.5mm



and connectors model Canon XLR.The unit also

provides RJ11 connectors for DMX signal. In

carrying out the wiring of the connectors it is

important that the signal wires do not make

contact with each other and do not touch the

casingoftheplug.Thecasingoftheplugmustnot
