    In this mode output is pulsed once per trigger. One input is used as a trigger. The delay and pulse duration can range from 20µs to 1 second in 20µs or 2ms steps. The PP610 can be set up using four push buttons and a four digit seven- segment display (see Section 9, Operation).

  • Page 15: Mechanical Fixing

    The thickness of the base is 3.2mm. Fixing screws must not extend into the enclosure by more than 6mm. The enclosure of the PP610 is used to dissipate power in the form of heat. For this reason the material to which the unit is attached must be suitable, preferably metallic with ability to dissipate the produced heat.
  • Page 16 To limit the power, set the power supply output voltages to the minimum value required by the LED light and the PP610 together. Chose a PSU that limits its output current by design, by setting the current limit on the supply (if this feature exists) or use fuses.

  • Page 17: Pp610 Heat Output

    PP610/612 LED lighting controllers - User Manual PP610 heat output The PP610 controller has a linear circuit to produce constant current output. This section explains how to calculate the heat output from the PP610 and what measures you can take to manage it.

  • Page 18: Total Heat Output

    PP610/612 LED lighting controllers - User Manual Total heat output The total heat output from the PP610 is given by adding the heat output for both channels as calculated above. If the heat output is no greater than 10W, no heatsinking is required. If the heat output is between 10W and 24W, the PP610 needs to be mounted on a solid piece of metal to dissipate the heat.

  • Page 19: Connections

    PP610/612 LED lighting controllers - User Manual Connections All connections except RS232 are made on screw terminals. The opto- isolated inputs require a voltage between 4.5v and 24v DC for a positive logic level. Open circuit or less than 1v gives a negative logic level.
