AMX RADIA Eclips RE-DM6 Installation Manual

Overview
The RE-DM6 RADIA Eclipse 6-Channel Integrated Dimmer Module (120V: FG706-03;
240V: FG706-04) controls up to six circuits with six 1200-watt onboard dimmers
(FIG. 1). The RE-DM6 is designed for use with the RDA series of enclosures, in an
AMX Lighting™ modular digital dimming system. The RE-DM6 is controlled by AXLink
or by dry (contact) closures.

Weight: 4.5 lbs (2.04 kg)
Line input: • 120, 240 VAC, single phase, 2W+G, 50/60 Hz, 2400 W,
one feed
• 120, 120/240, 240 VAC, single phase, 3W+G, 50/60 Hz,
4800 W, dual feed
Output: • 1200 W max. per channel @120, 240 VAC
• 2400 W max. total, all 6 channels on with single 2400 W
feed
• 4800 W max. total, all 6 channels on with dual 2400 W
feeds
• Line input #1 goes to dimmer 1, 3, and 5; line input #2
goes to dimmer 2, 4 and 6
• All electrical ratings are for continuous duty
Wire rating: Use only copper wires rated at 75°C (167°F) min.
Torque terminals: To 20 in-lbs (2.3 N/M)
Maximum wire size: 10 AWG (4 mm²)
Wire stripping length: 0.5" (13 mm)
AXLink Port: 4-pin 3.5mm green captive wire connector - AXLink
communication signaling with 12VDC power in.
Aux Power: 2-pin 3.5mm green captive wire connector. This is a 12VDC
power input that supplies additional power to the Radia PCB
and connected Radia modules.
Dry Contacts: • Emergency fire alarm relay connection - Closed relay
activates preset 126. Other control is locked out until relay
opens. Supports daisy chaining of up to 20 dimmers for
this connection, with a maximum current requirement of
200mA when daisy-chained.
• Failsafe connection - Works with a toggle switch - opening
the switch triggers preset 128, closing the switch triggers
preset 127. Supports daisy chaining of up to 20 dimmers
for this connection with a maximum current requirement of
200mA when daisy-chained.
BTU/hr: 300 single feed (2400 W); 600 dual feed (4800 W)

Caution: Pre-Installation Notes
WARNING: This unit should be installed only by qualified electrical personnel, and in
compliance with all national electrical codes, local codes and ordinances. To prevent
possible personal injury or death, disconnect power to the enclosure at the breaker
box before attempting to work with any AMX Lighting modules.
• All Class 1 and 2 wiring must be connected to their dedicated terminals.
• Class 1 wiring should be connected through the top of the enclosure, and Class
2 wiring through the bottom.
• Load conductors must be same size as line conductors, regardless of
connected load.
• Disconnect power while installing or connecting the unit.
• Keep top and bottom air vents clear at all times, and maintain 12" (30.48 cm)
clearance around the top and bottom.
• Test loads for shorts before connecting.
• Class 2 wiring must be rated 300V or higher.
• For indoor use only.
• AC lighting loads only.
• For more information, refer to the RE-DM6 instruction manual available at
www.amx.com.
Radia Lighting System Configuration Pages
The AMX Radia Web pages provide a simple interface for users of the Radia Duet
module. The web pages reside on the AMX master when running the Radia Duet
module and may be accessed through Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox. The RE-
DM6 may also be configured using NetLinx code or a terminal. For more information,
refer to the RE-DM6 instruction manual available at www.amx.com.
High-Voltage Connections
Each AMX Lighting module has its high-voltage connectors marked on its circuit
board. Line, load, and neutrals are also clearly marked.
