General information
To ensure the safe and reliable operation of the devices, please observe the following requirements: Use the device only for its intended purpose Do not use devices that show signs f malfunctioning Avoid strong physical impacts on the device Protect devices and cables from contact with moisture or other corrosive liquids Whenever a fault is detected in the device, please contact the manufacturer.v
Safe operation
To ensure the safe and reliable operation of the devices, please observe the following requirements: Use the device only for its intended purpose Do not use devices that show signs of malfunctioning Avoid strong physical impacts on the device Protect devices and cables from contact with moisture or other corrosive liquids Whenever a fault is detected in the device, please contact the manufacturer.
Warning!
The device uses hazardous voltage AC 90-250V
Advantages
Dim AC lines and 1-10V/0-10V lines from one device Independent phase inputs for dimmable 230V channels Active analog 1-10V/0-10V outputs, capable to connect up to 00 drivers/ballasts Maximum surge protection – power supply optimized for voltage from 100 to 315 V AC switcher mode Full galvanic isolation of all ports (except 1-10V)
Installation
- Ensure the device has no damage caused by transportation
- Install the device on DIN-rail
- Connect power supply according to connection scheme
- Connect DMX512, AC dimming lines, 1-10 outputs according to the connection scheme
- Connect the grounding circuit to the grounding clamp terminal
- Set DMX start address on DIP switcher section 1-9. DMX start address is set as binary code where section 1 refers to LSB and section 9- to MSB, ON position- to binary «1», OFF position- to binary «0». Valid addresses range from 1 to 504
- Select the necessary AC channels mode by DIP switcher section 10. Set section 10 to OFF to select the AC dimmer function. Set section 10 to ON to select AC switcher unction
- Apply a MAINS voltage to the terminal «~230V»
Warning!
Before mounting and turning on the power, you need to make sure protective
ground cable connections and places of their connection
Operation
TimeGate DIN devices start their normal operation a few seconds after they have been powered up. Output channels operate according to values received from DMX512 ort. AC channel 1 corresponds to the DMX start address set by the DIP switches, AC channel 3- to start address+3. 1-10V channel 1 corresponds to start address+4, 1-10V channel 4- o start address+7. When AC dimmer mode is selected, the actual level on AC outputs changes proportionally to the DMX value. When AC switcher mode is selected, AC channels just switch the load ON and OFF, DMX value 0-127 switches the load off, and DMX value 128-255 switches the load ON. LED indicator shows the status of the input DMX512 signal. If the indicator is red, no DMX512 signal is detected on input. If the indicator is green, a valid DMX512 signal is received. The indicator blinks on change DMX values controlling the device’s outputs.
RDM
The device supports DMX address assignment and dimmer/switcher function changing via RDM. To select RDM address assignment mode, set all DIP-switcher sections to OFF. n other cases the actual DMX address will be indicated in RDM parameters anyway. AC dimmer and AC switcher functions can be selected via RDM by choosing the corresponding “device personality”.
Connection scheme
Technical maintenance
Maintenance, search, and troubleshooting should be performed by service personnel. The device should be free from dirt, dents, and connecting cables and wires must be intact and securely fastened.
