The DMX network supports up to 32
PowerModules connected to one line. For larger
installations, where more DMX lines are required,
the use of a DMX booster/isolator is
recommended. Any booster/isolator used should
support bi-directional data on pins 4 and 5 for
DimSTAT to operate. Suitable boosters are IES
code 9601 (5 channels) or 9815 (10 channels).
Termination is required for both DMX and
DimSTAT data on all networks. The last output
socket in the line should be terminated with two
120Ω 1/4 Watt resistors connected between pins 2
and 3 (DMX) and between 4 and 5 (DimSTAT). A
‘dummy plug’ XLR male connector with
termination resistors is recommended.
2.4 Safety
Even though the PowerModule is equipped with
the latest electronic safety features and in some
cases an RCBO (circuit breaker with residual
current/earth leakage trip), all normal electrical
safety procedures must be followed. Do not use
the dimmer if the mains input cable has been
damaged, or the enclosure is damaged.

DMX LED
Illuminates red continuously when valid DMX is
present and flashes when there is no DMX signal.
ENT & arrows
ENT (ENTer) completes a programming step and
records the information in the memory. The four
arrows provide navigation through the set-up
menu, and the means to enter data.
Ï Up. Higher level menu feature or

move cursor down in display screen
or number decrement.
Í Left cursor. Move cursor left in
display screen.
Î Right cursor. Move cursor right in
display screen.
DMX
Selects the DMX address of each channel.
INST
INSTall function. To set up dimmer options:
• Line voltage, frequency and maximum
current
• DimSTAT communication address
• DMX failure options
• DMX backup levels
• DMX configuration (individual or combined)
• Channel configuration (individual or
combined)
• Sleep mode
• Voltage regulation
• Current limit
• Minimum level reset (preheat off when DMX
is not present)
• Voltage calibration
• Factory reset
• Channel information
• Password set-up
• Dimmer hardware configuration
CHAS (with LED)
CHASe. Provides access to the dimmer’s internal
20-pattern chase effects system for stand-alone
display effects. The LED illuminates when the
dimmer is in the ‘chase’ mode.
CONF
CONFigure. Access to a sub-menu to set the
detailed configuration of individual or combined
dimmer channels. Options:
MAX MAXimum. Sets the
maximum output level from
30% to 100%, individually
or combined.
MIN MINimum. Sets the
minimum output level from
0% to 29.9%, individually or
combined.
T-IN Response time to fade in
from 0.00 secs to 99.9
secs.
T-OUT Response time to fade out
from 0.00 secs to 99.9
secs.
