Connecting An External Input Device; Connecting Dmx Network Cabling; Connecting Dali Network Cabling - eldoLED LINEARdrive User Manual

3.3.1.2 Connecting an external input device

It is possible to connect an external control device to the LINEARdrive. You can connect:
Ω
• a 10k potentiometer, allowing you to turn on/off and dim the light
• a 0...10V control device, allowing you to turn on/off and dim the light
• an external switch allowing you to select another show sequence
To connect one of these control devices to the LINEARdrive, connect the device's positive lead
to the EXT in+ connector and its negative lead to the EXT in- connector.

3.3.1.3 Connecting DMX network cabling

The data wires must be connected to the DMX and LedSync connectors.
For data input on both LINEARdrive 180 and LINEARdrive 720, connect the network cable's
data+, data- and shielding wire (the orange, orange/white and brown wire in a CAT5 cable) to
the DMX in+, DMX in- and DMX in shield connector respectively.
For data output on LINEARdrive 180, connect the network cable's data+, data- and shielding
wire (the orange, orange/white and brown wire in a CAT5 cable) to the LedSync thru+, LedSync
thru- and LedSync thru shield wire respectively.
For data output on LINEARdrive 720, connect the network cable's data+, data- and shielding
wire (the orange, orange/white and brown wire in a CAT5 cable) to the LedSync out+, LedSync
out- and LedSync out shield wire respectively.
LedSync is the eldoLED proprietary communication protocol that is 100% DMX512A-compati-
ble, and enables additional features such as a 15-bit control resolution and bidirectional com-
munication for driver configuration and temperature read-out.
For DMX wires, use CAT5 Shielded Twisted Pair cabling or equivalent.

3.3.1.4 Connecting DALI network cabling

The data wires must be connected to the DALI in and DALI out connectors.
For data input, connect the network cable's data+ and data- wire to the DALI in+ and DALI in -
connector respectively.
For data output, connect the network cable's data+ and data- wire to the DALI out+ and DALI
out - connector respectively.
