  • Page 8: Cable Lengths

    DMX-LED-Dimmer X9HR Cable lengths The DMX-LED-Dimmer X9HR should be run with shortest possible cable lengths. Because of the low operation voltage in LED installation the cable cross section is to choose as large as possible to keep the voltage drop as low as possible on the cable.

  • Page 9: Dmx-Addressing

    DMX-LED-Dimmer X9HR DMX-Addressing The starting address is adjustable with the switches 1 to up 9. Switch 1 has the valency 2 (=1), switch 2 the valency 2 (=2) etc. until switch 9 has the valency 2 (=256). In total the switches showing ON correlate with the starting address.

  • Page 11: Ctrl-Output (Energy-Save)

    CTRL-Output (Energy-Save) (from 06/2014 / Version 2.1) The DMX-LED-Dimmer X9HR has an Energy-Save control output (CTRL) which is able to run off the Load Power Supply of the LEDs. If none of the outputs is activated for a period of 5 minutes or all DMX values are set to 0 for 5 minutes, the control output is switched off.

  • Page 12: Operation Modes

    DMX-LED-Dimmer X9HR Operation modes The DMX-LED-Dimmer X9HR has several operating modes that can be set using configuration switches 3 and 4: 9Ch. Dimmer 8Bit with dimming curve 9Ch. Dimmer 16Bit 9Ch. Dimmer 8Bit 2kHz (linear) 9Ch. Dimmer 8Bit 4kHz (linear) The operating mode (configuration switches 3 and 4) can be combined with the DMX master dimmer (configuration switches 1 and 2).

    / curve definition) for each output. The received DMX-Channel has values from 0 up to 255 (8 bit). The DMX-LED- Dimmer X9HR output driver provides 65536 steps (16 Bit) which are assigned to the DMX values. So, it is possible to effect with small steps little brightness changings in the lower brightness range.
