2.4 EPLATES
ePlates ™ are remote wall station controllers for
the TEKO that allow users to recall internal
memories from the TEKO for replay at a pre-
programmed level and with a selected fade time.
ePlates are available in the following
configurations;
ePlates are connected to the TEKO Dimmers
via LSCnet which uses industry standard Cat5
cables and connectors. The ePlate buttons and
faders can be programmed to recall lighting
memories stored in the dimmers or to operate
various TEKO functions.
For example, one button might recall a TEKO
memory. Another button might switch certain
dimmer channels between DMX control and
Memory (ePlate) control.
2.5 TEKO CONTROL PHILOSOPHY
The control source attribute for each TEKO
dimmer channel can be individually configured
to control the channel from either:
1. DMX. When configured for “DMX” a dimmer
channel is controlled from a DMX lighting
controller. If DMX fails, the DMX levels can be
held indefinitely or the channels can fade to a
“Backup Memory” previously stored in the
TEKO.
2. Memory. When configured for “memory” a
dimmer channel is controlled from ePlates (wall
plates) that are used to recall memories stored
in the TEKO dimmer.
3. DMX/MEM Switch. When configured to
“Switch”, a dimmer channel can be switched
between Memory or DMX.
Operation of the Switch is controlled from either
a suitably programmed ePlate button or from the
TEKO touch screen or if Auto Switch is set to
ON it will be automatically switched to DMX
whenever a valid DMX signal is connected to the
TEKO.
Channel Testing. Dimmer channels can be
manually controlled from the TEKO front panel
touch screen for testing purposes.
