PC0011 Mood Lighting (ML)
DALI/DMX 512 Controller
Quick Start Guide
1. To securely mount the device on a flat surface, M4 screws and nuts
can be applied at the slots at the side of the enclosure. (Not provided
in the box)
2. If connecting multiple ML Controllers to the same PanL Hub port in a
daisy chain configuration, set the ID switch. Refer to the section - ID
Switch Configuration for details.
3. Connect RJ45 cable and add a terminator. Refer to the section PanL
Hub Connection for details.
4. If using DMX, refer to PanL DMX Setup for details.
5. If using DALI, refer to PanL DALI Setup for details.
For multiple PanL ML Controller connections to a single PanL Hub port, the ID
switch must be configured to be unique. Using a Philip head screw driver, set
a unique number for each device between 0-7 (do not use 8-9). For example,
if connecting 3 PanL ML Controllers to a PanL Hub port, you may set it as 0,
1, and 2. PanL ML Controllers connected to different PanL Hub ports can share
the same unique number.
The PanL ML Controller is designed to be connected to a PanL Hub for power
and data via the P1 or P2 RJ45 ports. When a single PanL ML Controller is
connected to a PanL Hub port, the maximum length of the RJ45 cable shall
not exceed 100 meters. Connect the terminator (provided in the PanL Hub
package) to the unconnected P1 or P2 port.
For multiple PanL ML Controller connections to a single PanL Hub port, the
first connection to PanL Hub and the subsequent connections in between the
PanL ML Controller devices must not exceed 50 meters in cable length, each.
The total combined cable lengths must not exceed 100 meters. Connect the
terminator provided in PanL Hub box to the last unconnected PanL ML
Controller P1 or P2 port.

Connect a RJ45 cable from the PanL ML Controller port labelled DMX 512 to
the first DMX decoder and connect a DMX terminator to the last unused
decoder port as illustrated in the example below. The PanL ML Controller
supports up to 512 DMX channels. Depending on the number of channel(s)
per decoder used, the cumulative channels must not exceed 512 for all
connected decoders. Please refer to the Decoder’s datasheet for any cable
length specifications.

Connect the DALI bus wires to the two DA terminals on PanL ML Controller
and tighten the screws for a secure connection. The DALI bus is polarity free
and so the two wires may be connected to either port. The recommended
maximum length of the bus is 300 meters when AWG16 standard 2core wire
in single cable or cable conduit is used. PanL ML Controller supports up to
64 DALI drivers. An external DALI bus power supply is required as illustrated
below:
