“ON”, “DIM” and “OFF” Buttons with Integral LED’s All CS-DMX Series control stations contain 3 buttons with integral blue LED’s. When a button is pressed, the control station is triggered into the corresponding state. The button LED’s indicate the state of the control station. Under normal operation, when a button is pressed, the corresponding LED will illuminate. If the control station is fading, the LED will flash once per second until the fade is complete.
Power Supply Requirement The control station requires a regulated DC power supply from 10.6VDC to 18VDC. A 12VDC power supply is recommended. The power supply common (V-) connects to the “COM” connection on J1 and the power supply positive (V+) connects to the “V+” connection on J1. Control Station Wiring CS-DMX Series control stations can be wired for various applications. The control station wiring can be configured for the functionality required.
Wiring an Independent Control Station An independent control station requires 2 conductors for V+ and common, and a single DMX cable for the DMX out connection.
Wiring Two or More Control Stations Together with “Mimic” “Mimic” refers to pressing a button (“ON”, “DIM” or “OFF”) on a control station, and the other control station(s) are automatically triggered into the same “ON”, “DIM” or “OFF” state. The analog output(s) could be controlling the same device or completely different device.
Time Fade The control station is capable of fading from: “OFF” “ON” “ON” “OFF” “OFF” “DIM” “DIM” “OFF” The control station is capable of pseudo fading from: “DIM” “ON” “ON” “DIM” The control station automatically begins fading when a button is pressed. The button LED flashes on and off once per second to indicate fading. NOTE: Pressing a button or adjusting the master slider level while the control station is fading, cancels the fade and immediately activates the button pressed.
Local Lockout Mode Activation When the local lockout mode is activated, the control station is locked in the “OFF” state. Any button press is ignored and the “OFF” LED flashes once to indicate local lockout mode is activated. Procedure: • • To activate the local lockout mode, press and hold the “OFF” button for approximately 10 seconds, until the “OFF” LED extinguishes. To deactivate the local lockout mode, press and hold the “OFF” button for approximately 10 seconds, until the “OFF” LED illuminates.
