3. Connecting Power Field wiring of the eS21 LED Raceway is straight forward. A total of 5 wires need to be brought to the unit: The three "phase" wires (L1, L2, L3), a Neutral, and an Earth/Ground. The "phase" wires carry up to 25 amps each, and the Neutral carries the "unbalanced"...
Basic DMX512 installation consists of Connecting eS21 LED Raceways together in "daisy-chain" fashion. A cable runs from the control console to the "DMX IN" connector on the first eS21 LED Raceway . Another cable runs from the "DMX OUT" connector on the first unit to the "DMX IN" connector on the second LED Raceway. All units are connected together in this fashion.
LED Raceway Installation & Operation Guide 5. LED Raceway Mounting There are several ways to mount eS21 LED Raceways. Below are the mounting brackets available from your Authorized Strand Lighting Dealer. Refer to "ACCESSORIES" on page 26 for ordering information. Refer to each bracket’s installation instructions for specific installation information.
Forward Phase Control is the technique used by all previous electronic dimmers, although earlier implementations have been far less sophisticated than eS21 dimmers. This scheme only allows current to flow during the latter portion of each half cycle. As the relative duration of the conducting portion is increased, so is the average power applied to the load, and hence its brightness.

Installation & Operation Guide LED Modules Each eS21 LED Raceway LED Module contains four channels of LED luminaire control. The module is a LED power supply that is designed to deliver power and data (through its four low-voltage connectors) to power and control any Selecon PL Wash luminaire or Color Kinetics Blast fixtures.

LED Raceway Installation & Operation Guide OPERATION AND PROGRAMMING 1. LCD Menu Operation The Head-End Processor LCD Display Menu system consists of nine main categories. To navigate the menus, press the four navigation buttons as required (Figure 4). When the desired menu is reached, press the [Enter] button to display the menu options.
2. Splash Screens On Power-up the eS21 will display the Philips Logo Splash Screen for 5 seconds and then displays the User selectable Splash Screen. All four Splash Screens are accessible by multiple taps of the Escape button. The Main Menu select screen is accessible by tapping any of the navigation buttons.

General eS21 dimmers are designed to operate a wide variety of lighting loads of up to their rated capacity. The range of load types which may be connected includes incandescent lamps, and a number of "well-behaved" inductive loads such as low-voltage (step-down transformer) fixtures, fluorescent lamps, and most types of small motors used in special effects equipment such as wind or fog machines.
Thermal Protection The portion of the eS21 dimmer output wave form which generates the most heat is the transition from on to off (off to on for FPC). This portion is known as the transition time, and its duration directly affects the amount of heat generated.
(1) Each module can support either 2 ports of dimming or relays OR 4 ports of LED. (2) Addressing is set assuming 4 ports. Therefore, eS21 LED Raceways supports 1 - 3 - 5 addresses. Figure 9: Removing and Replacing a Dimmer Module...
