Electronics modules
Standard configuration Sensor Portable Packs are generally
equipped with a Multi-Protocol Electronics (MPE) module.
MPE modules are factory-configured for seven user-selectable
dimmer configurations and accept DMX512, AMX192 and 0 –
10V DC analog input. Advanced Features (AF) packs are
equipped with a Control Electronics Module (CEM). CEMs
accept only DMX512, but feature an easy-to-use user inter-
face that incorporates an integral LCD and keypad.
Like all Sensor dimming systems, the Portable Pack provides
feedback on dimming system status. In packs equipped with
the MPE, this is accomplished via a warning beacon and a
system of flashing LEDs. AF packs also provide a warning
beacon, but the CEM also provides extensive error messages
and warnings on the integral LCD. In addition, AF packs may
be networked on ETCLink, and provide feedback information
on individual dimmer modules.
For more information regarding the electronics module, see
the CEM User Manual or MPE User Manual that was shipped
with your system.
Removing electronics modules
To remove the electronics module, follow these steps:
1. Open the door.
2. Pull the small metal handle out of the bottom edge of the
front panel.
3. Grasp the handle and gently pull the electronics module
out.
To replace the module, insert it firmly until you feel it seat
securely. When the module is correctly seated, it should be
flush with the dimmers. Be sure to slide the handle back into
the front panel.
