Installation Instructions
Single PLP-REM-350 unit
.Connect a 230VAC power source to the 230VAC terminals of the
PLP-REM-350. Connect the pool lights to the 12VAC connection terminal
block in the PLP-REM-350.
.The PLP-REM-350 has a 350VA transformer built in. The total power load
of pool lights (+ cable losses) may not exceed this.

Multiple PLP-REM-350 installation
For extended installations (total lamp power > 350VA), multiple PLP-REM-
350’s can be linked together. This way, a perfect synchronisation of all pool
lights is still guaranteed.
The PLP-REM-350’s need to communicate with each other, to ensure all the
lamps are in perfect sync.
Connect the PLP-REM-350’s with each other using the CAN bus:
Connect the CAN terminals of the first PLP-REM-350 with the CAN terminal
of the second PLP-REM-350*.
If more than 2 PLP-REM-350’s are necessary, simply daisy chain each CAN
terminal with the one from the next PLP-REM-350 (see below).
Respect the polarity of the terminals! (CAN L & H)
Next, set the DIP switches on the PLP-REM-350’s to the correct MASTER/
SLAVE setting. The first PLP-REM-350 will be the MASTER. All the others will
be SLAVE’s. Refer to page 9 for Master/Slave DIP switch info.
CAN BUS
set as MASTER set as SLAVE set as SLAVE
* We recommend using a shielded twisted pair cable (min. 0,5mm² - up to 200m) to connect
multiple PLP-REM-350’s using the CAN bus.
In a Master/Slave setup, only the PLP-REM-350 that is set as MASTER
will react to transmitter commands. Any additional transmitters will
need to be paired with this MASTER PLP-REM-350

Operation Modes
The PLP-REM-350 controller has 2 main operation modes:
“ON/OFF control mode” & “PLC control mode”. Each mode has it’s own
functionalities:
1) Only for RGB lamps
2) In ON/OFF control mode, only a few RS-485 commands are available (see p 15)
3) Depending on which control mode is selected, the keypad of the transmitter needs
to be changed

Pairing the handheld transmitter to the PLP-REM-350
All handheld transmitters are already paired in the factory and ready to use. In
case a problem arises, the pairing process can be done as below:
Replacing transmitter Keypad
Depending on which control mode is selected, the keypad of the transmitter
needs to be changed:
• Remove the philips head screw and open the transmitter
• Replace the Keypad in the top part of the transmitter housing
• Reassemble in reverse order

1) Make sure DIP switch 1 is switched OFF.
2) Make sure the lights are turned ON with the remote first.

Address dial setup
Setting the DMX address of the PLP-REM-350:
Select the desired number on the address dial. The chosen number deter-
mines the DMX addresses of the PLP-REM-350 & lamps.
Each lamp uses 3 bytes of DMX data (R-G-B), and all lamps receive the same
DMX data from the PLP-REM-350.

1) Connect the DMX panel to the “DMX IN” port of the first PLP-REM-350
2) Connect the PLP-REM-350’s with each other (open loop):
DMX OUT --> DMX IN (polarized terminals + -)
3) Set the DMX address for each PLP-REM-350 via the address dial.
- Option 1:All PLP-REM-350’s can be set to the same address:
This implies that all lamps will receive the same DMX data,
And will all operate identically
- Option 2:PLP-REM-350’s can be set to dierent addresses:
Each PLP-REM-350 will have it’s own group of connected lamps
that will operate identically.
However, since each PLP-REM-350 has it’s own unique address,
the dierent lamp groups can be controlled separately

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM SOLUTION
The PLP-REM-350 doesn’t react
to transmitter commands
• Perform a RESET procedure
• Check the battery of the handheld
transmitter (see p.16)
• The transmitter is not paired-
correctly with the PLP-REM.
Repeat the pairing process
• Reduce the distance between hand-
held transmitter and PLP-REM-350
and/or remove obstacles
• Check the General status light on
the logic board. If it’s red, then
the secondary voltage is too high
(>14VAC) or there is a short circuit
• Check the LED on the small DURA-
LINK circuit board (top right cor-
ner). This LED needs to blink each
time a transmitter button is pressed.
If the LED works, there might be a
problem with the logic board
The pool lights don’t work
or don’t change colors
correclty
• Perform a RESET procedure
• Check if all connections are made
according to the electrical scheme.
• Switch the PLP-REM-350 to ON/
OFF mode (DIP switch nr 1) and
check if the lamps work
Handheld transmitter does not
function anymore after firmware
update of the PLP-REM-350 for
LinkTouch compatibility
• Buy a new TX868 transmitter that
has updated firmware

(**)
(**) Do not mix 12VAC and 230VAC / 400VAC power line cables into the
same cable trays
1. Third party equipment such as frequency inverters and electric motors
can generate excessive noise on the 230VAC / 400VAC power line.
This noise might be injected into the adjacent 12VAC power line and
disturb the power line communication towards the DURAVISION lights.
!Keep 230VAC / 400VAC power line cables at least 50cm separated over their full
length from the 12VAC power line towards any RGB lights
Do not mix 12VAC and 230VAC / 400VAC power line cables into the same cable
trays
!
We recommend using 2 CORE cables for all Adagio Pro lights to avoid PLC
communication issues
2. Floating cores in a multi-core cable are not allowed because it disturbs
PLC communication.
