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
All 6060 Power Drivers ship with factory configured settings so that the default DMX starting address is 1. See below for DMX address requirement for additional devices. The DMX addresses will always move sequentially across ports 1-8.
To address unit:
Press [ M ] DMX address will appear with the current starting address
Press [ + / – ] to adjust to desired starting address
Press [ M ] to store DMX revised starting address (menu will exit after 5 second of inactivity)

Testing Fixtures after Installation
To test that fixtures are receiving power prior to connecting to a DMX controller:

  1. Connect all fixtures and devices then power on your 6060 Power Driver.
  2. Simultaneously press the [M, +, and –] buttons. DO NOT HOLD.
  3. 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.
