Product Description
-
Brightline’s low-voltage control system facilitates an easy-to -set-up lighting system for video applications.
Stand-alone systems are quoted with a DMX console and wall-mounted playback station (CTRL-WS-LVSR516). Utilizing the DMX console, or another device with DMX output, set each module to the desired dimming level and record as an individual scene. When using theCTRL-WS-LV-SR516 you can record up to 16 individual scenes. -
The 6060 Power Driver ships configured for field operation.
-
If there is more than one 6060 Power Driver within the system,the installer will need to set the DMX starting address on the additional 6060 Power Drivers (see page 3).
-
All components necessary for operation ofthe 6060 Power Driver are included:
(1) 6060 Power Driver
(1) IEC power cord
(16 or 32) Phoenix connectors
(1) 1-foot RJ45 cable
(1) 1-foot DMX-5-Pin (M) to RJ45 adaptor
Overview
Operating Mode
Each 6060 Power Driver is configured to the required operating mode. If there
is more than one 6060 Power Driver refer to DMX addressing information below.
A separate 6060 Power Driver is required for each fixture type in the
installation. If the device is inadvertently reset to factory settings, call
Tech Support at 1-412-206-0106 ex.113
or email techservice@brightlines.com for
detailed instructions to re-configure the device for use with Brightline
fixtures.
Setup
Locate your 6060 Power Driver in a control cabinet or 19-in rack (rack screws
not included).
See the Brightline Low-Voltage System Quick Setup Guide for both DMX and power
connection schemes. See accompanying appendixes for fixture connection
details.
Multiple 6060 Power Drivers can be linked with the DMX Thru (LED Sync Thru)
jack and the included 1-ft RJ45 cable.
Configuring DMX Starting Address

Testing Fixtures after Installation
To test that fixtures are receiving power prior to connecting to a DMX
controller:
- Connect all fixtures and devices then power on your 6060 Power Driver.
- Simultaneously press the [M, +, and –] buttons. DO NOT HOLD.
- Each port position will turn on for one second sequentially, followed by all fixtures on for one second. This pattern will repeat twice. (Ex. R, G, B, W, then ALL, repeat).
Connecting a Wall Station
The CTRL-WS-LV-SR516 wall station comes with all necessary parts to integrate
into the stand-alone low voltage control system. To connect the CTRL-WS-LV-
SR516 to the 6060 Power Driver, run the RJ45 to bare lead cable from the wall
station to the DMX IN port on the back of the 6060 Power Driver, or to a DMX
gateway networking device for integration with other controls. (see the
Brightline CTRL-WS-LV-SR516 Overview for wiring instructions at the wall
station). Ensure that the wall station is in line between the controller and
the 6060 Power Driver for proper operation. See the Brightline CTRL-WS-LV-
SR516 Overview for more detail.
System Integration
A DMX IN signal is required for integration with non-Brightline provided
control systems. A DMX 5-Pin (M)to RJ45 adaptor is provided by Brightline for
convenience. Simply connect the control system to the DMX IN port. Consult
manufacturers’ documentation for setup and integration instructions.
