•  Fuse 1 T 6.3A/500V AC
• Fuse 2 T 8A/250V AC
• Fuse 3 T 8A/250V AC

 Mounting

• Fixture must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all national and local electrical and construction codes and regulations. 
  

• Connecting the E-BOX REMOTE BASIC 240W can be done by a qualified person only!

• Note for cable glands.
  We recommend applying an adequate layer of the paste LOCTITE 5331 on the plastic holder of the cable gland before inserting it into the body of the gland.

1. Remove the top cover (A) from the E-box Remote Basic Mini by unscrewing four fastening screws (B) in order to get access to terminals.

2. Fasten the E-box Remote Basic Mini on a non-flammable flat surface via four mounting holes (C) of a diameter of 6.5 mm in its housing.

3. Remove end caps from cable glands before passing cables. To keep declared IP rating of the device, every cable gland has to be covered with the end cap if the cable gland is not used.

4. Pass cable for DMX through the cable glands M12x1.5 and connect it to the terminal block and tighten the cable in the cable gland.

5.  Pass cables for Power and LED outputs through cable glands M20x1.5 and connect them to the terminal blocks and tighten the cables in the cable glands.
   Cable glands serve for cables of the following diameters:

   • Cable gland M12x1.5 (DMX) – for cable of a diameter of 3-7mm.
   • Cable gland M20x1.5 (Power IN, LED Output) – for cable of a diameter of 7-13mm.

6. Check that all screws and cable glands are firmly tightened.

7.  Screw the top cover (A) back on the box.

ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE E-BOX REMOTE BASIC 240W FROM MAINS BEFORE CONNECTING/DISCONNECTING LED MODULES

DMX connection

Eminere Remote connection CE version:

US version:

Example of connection

Each line of Emineres Remote connected to the LED output of the E-box Remote Basic Mini has to be terminated at the last fixture.
EITHER connect a 120 Ohm resistor between terminals D+ and D- as shown, OR terminate via RDM as described on page 14.

The number of Emineres Remote connected to one LED output of the E-box Remote Basic Mini depends on the type of Eminere Remote and cable length.
The table states max. number of Emineres Remote connected to the E-box Remote Basic Mini.

| Max. number of Emineres Remote connected to the E-box Remote Basic Mini
---|---
**Cable length *| Eminere Remote 1| Eminere Remote 2 (UV)| Eminere Remote 3| Eminere Remote 4 (UV)**
25 m| 10| 5| 3| 2
50 m| 8| 4| 2| 2
75 m| 6| 3| 2| 1
100 m| 5| 2| 1| 1

Cable length is the total cable length between E-box Remote Basic Mini and last connected Eminere Remote.
Example: Total cable length=L1+L2+L3.

RDM manager

• The RDM manager allows you to read information about connected LED modules and set their behaviour.
• The Emineres Remote can be controlled in the Pass Through mode only.
  • RDM Manager and DMX controller cannot be connected at the same time.

Examples of RDM manager screenshots.
Initial screen of the RDM manager – Pass Through mode:

Click on the LED device to show and set options in the Control panel:

Options in the control panel:

Last Eminere on each DMX line may be terminated by setting the ‘Manufacturer PID’ ’Terminator active’ to “1”,
But ensure that the fixture is not already terminated with a 120 Ohm resistor as described on page 10.

The option “Pixel swap” from RDM control panel allows you to swap a pixel order. Example:

In case of reconnecting the E-box Remote Basic 240W on the other end of Emineres Remote line, the pixel order is not in succession:

By means of the function “Pixel swap” you can rearrange pixels order.

Software update of connected LED modules

• The software update of connected LED modules can be done by the Robe Universal Interface (or Robe Universal Interface WTX), DMX connection and the ROBE RDM Uploader software.
• The ROBE Uploader is a software for automatized software update of ROBE fixtures.
• Please see https://www.robe.cz/robe-uploader/ for more information about the ROBE Uploader.

  • Setting of Calumma XS modules will not be changed.
  • Update from version 4.0 to newer version will not affect setting of connected Eminere Remotes and Calummas XS.
  • Version of the Robe uploader has to be 4.16 and higher!
  • You have to use the file Eminere.lib for Emineres Remote update or Calumma.lib for Calummas XS update in the ROBE Uploader.
  • In case of combination of Emineres Remote and Calummas XS, update Emineres Remote using file Eminere. lib and after that update Calummas XS using file Calumma.lib.
