DMX Power Pack and DPP Plus
The DMX Power Pack (DPP) is a portable
electronics chassis that provides lamp power,
and translates DMX512 protocol to Series 300
luminaire protocol. There are two versions of
the DPP; one for arc lamps and one for
incandescent lamps. The two versions of the
DPP are indicated with either an APS6 or C3
module markings on the unit’s front panel.
Two versions of the unit are available: a
standard DPP unit and a DPP plus unit. The
standard unit can operate any of the Series 300
luminaires with the exception of the VL7 Series
luminaires, which can only be operated with a
DPP plus unit.
The DPP Plus includes a power supply and APS6 suitable for
powering the VL7 Series luminaires.
Note: A label at the input panel specifies APS6 or C3.
