Getting to know your RDS4 or RDS8 Thank you for purchasing the RDS4 or RDS8. At Enttec we are proud of our products and we hope you will enjoy using them as much as we enjoy designing and building them. -
Page 6: Layout
Layout The RDS4 case is 1.75” (44.45mm) in height, 11.82” (300mm) wide and 4.53” (115mm) deep. This makes it easy to put on a tabletop or shelf, and with an optional mounting bracket you can place it on a truss or pipe. -

Page 8: Power Supply
RDS device being installed. Electrical Isolation The RDS4 and the RDS8 are constructed with state of the art isolation placed next to the inputs and all the outputs. That means you have 1500V worth of protection against harmful surges and transient spikes from output to output, as well as between any of the branches and the controller plugged to the input. -
Page 9: Powering Up The Rds4 Or Rds8
Powering up the RDS4 or RDS8 As there is no power switch, when the RDS4 or RDS8 is plugged in, it should be powered on. You can confirm this by noticing that when first connecting it, the SYSTEM OK LED status indicator light should come on and then blink regularly. -

no RDM signals will be passed back from the fixtures to the controller. The BYPASS LED will light up to indicate that you're in this state, but none of the other LEDs (System OK, DMX etc) will be illuminated, as the processor is no longer monitoring the status of the signal being received. -
