Power - Acclaim Lighting Linear XTR User Manual

POWER

Power and control are combined within the IP66-rated feed and link cables using a
proprietary design. Connector placements are such that abutted units can be directly
connected without need for extra cables.
The color designations for the optional feed cable (and also XTR Driver output tails) are as
follows:
Control cores: 24 AWG / 0.25mm
Power cores: 14 AWG / 2.5mm
HIGH VOLTAGE
Always follow these steps when using XTR cabling:
• Ensure that the power input is isolated from the mains supply.
• At each connection, release the cover caps from both the socket and plug.
• Align the orientation marks of the socket and plug - and then push them together so that
the blue lock ring clicks fully into place.
• As each connection is made, ensure that the connector is fully locked onto the socket.
• Any unused output ports must have their cover cap securely fixed in place.
• Do not exceed the stated maximum fixtures in a daisy chain - see page 9.
• At the final fixture in a daisy-chain run, install an XTR End Cap (see page 3) to
seal off the power bus and also correctly terminate the DMX control feed.
• To release a connection, ensure that the power input is isolated, then twist the blue lock
ring of the plug counter-clockwise to release the connection.
