DMX-LED-Dimmer CC4 3
Description
The DMX-LED-Dimmer CC4 is designed for controlling LEDs, which are operated
with constant current and works with up to 48V DC.
4 outputs with choose able constant current modules
Different constant current modules with different output currents are available for
plug-on. The constant current modules are available as accessories and are not
included in the scope of delivery.
For voltages from 12V up to 24V
The DMX-LED-Dimmer CC4 works with supply voltages from 12V up to 24V DC.
DMX failure behavior
An adjustable DMX FAIL function offers the option to hold the current state (HOLD)
or to adopt a predefined value if the DMX signal fails.
LED state display
The DMX state is indicated via the LED status.
DMX-Masterdimmer
Optionally an additional DMX channel can be activated as master dimmer.
0% up to 100% dimmable
The connected LEDs are dimmed from 0% up to 100% via PWM.
RDM support
The DMX-LED-Dimmer CC4 allows configuration by RDM via DMX.
Top-hat rail housing available
The top-hat rail housing 1050 is available as accessory for the DMX-LED-Dimmer
X9HR. Together with the top-hat rail housing 1050, the interface is optimally suited
for control cabinet installation.

DMX-Addressing
The starting address is adjustable with the switches 1 to up 9.
Switch 1 has the valency 2
0
(=1), switch 2 the valency 2
1
(=2) etc. until switch 9 has
the valency 2
8
(=256). In total the switches showing ON correlate with the starting
address.
The DMX start address can also be set via the RDM parameter
DMX_STARTADDRESS. All switches must be in the OFF position for RDM
operation.
LED-Display
The integrated green LED is a multi function display.
During the normal operation mode the LED lights permanently. In this case the
device is working.
Furthermore, the LED shows the current status. In this case the LED lights up in
short pitches and then are missing for longer time.
The number of the flashing lights is equal to the event number:

Constant current modules
The following constant current modules for the DMX-LED-Dimmer CC4 are available
as accessory:
- Constant current LED-Driver LDD-300H (300mA)
- Constant current LED-Driver LDD-350H (350mA)
- Constant current LED-Driver LDD-500H (500mA)
- Constant current LED-Driver LDD-600H (600mA)
- Constant current LED-Driver LDD-700H (700mA)
- Constant current LED-Driver LDD-1000H (1000mA)
- Constant current LED-Driver LDD-1200H (1200mA)
- Constant current LED-Driver LDD-1500H (1500mA)
Insert the constant current module that the output of the
module (Vout) shows towards output terminal:

DMX failure behavior
The DMX-LED-Dimmer CC4 can hold the last value, switch on or switch off the LED
outputs on DMX fail.
This DMX-Fail option is selectable with Jumper 2 and 3.
After voltage drop the held values are not restored by the HOLD function.
In this case the values are set to 0 (OFF).
Via the RDM parameter DMX_FAIL_MODE the level can be adjusted
also.
HOLD
ALL OFF
ALL ON

DMX-LED-Dimmer CC4 9
Master-Dimmer
The DMX-LED-Dimmer CC4 has one Master-Dimmer which can be activated.
Master dimmer
The DMX channel which is set as start-address is used as Master-Dimmer for all 4
outputs. The DMX-Addresses assignment is as follows:
Master
OUT 1
OUT 2 OUT 3
OUT 4
Via the RDM parameter PERSONALITY also the Masterdimmer can also be
adjusted. No jumper must be set for RDM operation.
No Master dimmer
Master dimmer activated

RDM
RDM is the short form for Remote Device Management.
As soon as the device is within the system, device-dependent settings can occur
remotely via RDM command due to the uniquely assigned UID. A direct access to the
device is not necessary.
If the DMX start address is set via RDM, all address switches at the DMX-LED-
Dimmer CC4 must be set to OFF ! A DMX start address set by the address
switches is always prior !
This device supports the following RDM commands:

Factory Reset
Before running the Factory Reset, read all steps carefully.
To reset the DMX-LED-Dimmer CC4 to delivery state, proceed as follows:
-Turn off device (disconnect power supply)
-Set DIP switch 1 up to 10 to ON
-Turn on device (connect power supply)
-The LED lights up 20x during ca. 3 seconds
While the LED lights up set DIP switch 10 to OFF
-Now, the Factory Reset is executed
The LED lights up with error code 4
-Turn off device (disconnect power supply)
-Now, the device can be used
If a Factory Reset is needed again, this procedure can be repeated
at any time.
The RDM parameter FACTORY_RESET can also be used to reset the DMX
LED dimmer CC4 to the delivery state.
