Overview Concepts and Definitions The Echo Architectural Control Processor (E-ACP) is just one component of the Echo system. The Echo ACP integrates the DRd rack with other Echo networked products (up to 15 other host products such as Sensor 3, Echo Relay Panel, other Echo ACPs) over the EchoConnect network and supports Echo Inspire stations (up to 16) when station power is supplied.
When configuring your DRd, using the Dimmer Setup menu, you must assign each dimmer to a Space. Spaces Spaces are logical divisions within a system that isolates station control (preset and sequence control) to the defined group of controllable outputs in that division. A single Echo ACP is limited to 8 spaces, and an Echo system supports up to 16 spaces. Each space must be configured using the Space Setup option in the Arch Setup menu.
Rack and System Feedback The Echo ACP provides feedback through the status indicators on the front panel of the Echo ACP. Each indicator is visible from the front panel of the Echo ACP with the DRd enclosure door closed. Additional status information is provided on the front panel of the Echo ACP display. Additional status information is provided on the front panel of the Echo ACP display. • By default, the “Dimming Rack Status” displays.
Right I/O The Right I/O board on the DRd enclosures provide a majority of the control inputs into the system including: DRd right I/O • EchoConnect Station Bus - station communication bus from the Echo ACP to the Echo control stations and other products. • DMX (Digital Multiplex) - addresses up to 512 channels of control. The Echo ACP supports one universe of DMX input. DMX through connections are available for use as needed. The DMXB connector is not used.
Installation Environment Requirements The Echo ACP is designed for use in a Unison DRd enclosure. The environmental conditions for the Echo ACP should adhere to the requirements set for the DRd enclosure. Reference the Unison DRd Rack Enclosure Installation Manual for complete details. • A clean (not dusty) temperature-controlled environment with an ambient temperature of 32-104°F / 0-40°C and ambient humidity of 10-90%, non-condensing. • Restricted public access to prevent tampering.

Dimmer Properties Mode: The firing mode menu allows you to set a dimmer or a range of dimmers to a specific firing mode. Available firing modes include: • Normal: used for standard dimming of non-specialized load types. The dimmer operates with a modified square curve by default. • Dimmer Doubled: dimmer operates as two controllable circuits with two channels of control. This mode is displayed for use only with 120V AC / 60Hz systems utilizing ETC Dimmer Doubling™.
Minimum Scale: Minimum scale allows you to set a dimmer or a range of dimmers to a minimum output voltage, which is the bottom of the scaled output of the dimmer(s). The dimmer will switch on to an RMS output voltage of minimum scale voltage when the control level reaches the value set for threshold.
