ETC Installation Guide
ArcSystem Pro One-Cell
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of ArcSystem products. ArcSystem is a family of overhead LED
products designed for installations where dimming, light quality, and ease of installation are
absolutely essential. With ArcSystem, you will experience perfectly smooth dimming from 100%
down to absolute zero. ArcSystem luminaires come in a variety of form factors, beam angles, and
color-temperature options, all with high-efficiency optics and an outstanding quality of light ideal for
any application.
ArcSystem products with ArcMesh can be controlled using wired DMX or the wireless ArcMesh
protocol. ArcSystem products without ArcMesh can be configured for RDM control. This manual
provides step by step instruction on the installation of ArcSystem products as well as full system
integration. For information on installing the ArcSystem TX1 Transmitter for use with ArcMesh
installations, see the ArcSystem Installation Manual at etcconnect.com/ArcSystem. All ETC manuals

    DMX. The following illustration shows an example of a linear ceiling installation with one luminaire for each D1 Series driver. The cable between an ArcSystem Pro One-Cell Series luminaire and its driver is approximately 1 m (40 in) long. Note: If you want to daisy chain power wiring, it must be connected through a junction box as shown below.
  • Page 8 Install the driver on a power distribution system with reliably identified earthed neutral (ground) and install a maximum 20 A circuit breaker on the line conductor. The D1, D2, and D4 Series drivers accept 100–277 VAC, 50/60 Hz. ETC recommends installing all wiring in grounded metal conduit. WARNING: Circuits that are installed without an accessible power disconnect device cannot be serviced or operated safely.
  • Page 9 Depending on your installation, you might want to surface-mount the driver. Any ArcSystem standalone driver can be surface-mounted to any surface capable of supporting its weight using the four holes located on the back side of the enclosure. Contact ETC for custom mounting bracket options.
