Option Cards
Option cards are available for field installation into each of the panels. Each option adds
another level of features and functions to your system.
For more information on the specification or installation of the option cards, see the individual
manual supplied with the relay panel (Echo Relay Panel Mains Feed and Echo Relay Panel
Feedthrough) or the instructions supplied with the option card (Ride-Thru Option card and all
Sensor IQoption cards). Manuals are available for download at etcconnect.com.
Note: A single ERP Mains Feed or ERPFeedthrough panel supports the use of either
the 0–10V Dimming Control option or a DALIControl option, but not both in the
same panel.

Chapter 1 8
0–10V Dimming Control
The 0–10V Dimming Control option provides 24 outputs for control of
4-wire current-sink, 0–10VDC fluorescent or electronic loads.
• Each of the 24 outputs are rated to control a maximum of 400mA
per channel(up to 50 ballasts per channel).
• Loss of power at the Control Processor results in releasing control
levels to full.
DALIControl
B AB A B A B A B A B A
B AB A B A B A B A B A
B A B A B A B A B A B A
B A B A B A B A B A B A
The Digital Addressable Lighting Interface(DALI) Control option
controls 24 loops of 64 DALI-compatible ballasts in broadcast mode.
Each loo p of up to 64 DALI ballasts is linked one-to-one with the relay
panel circuit for power control.
The DALIballast must be powered by an external DALIloop power
supply (supplied by others). This supply is connected externally of the
processor. Each DALI loop requires its own power supply and possibly
more than one power supply depending on the ballast load.
Installation is limited to 64 DALI-compatible fluorescent ballasts per
DALIloop.
Contact Input
The Contact Input option provides the ability to directly control the
relays using a momentary or maintained dry contact input.
RideThru Option
The RideThru option maintains power to the Power Control Processor
Mk2 for a minimum of 15 seconds in the event of a brown-out or
power loss.
System Concepts and Definitions
Spaces
Spaces are used to divide the outputs of the relay panel into logical segments (such as
different rooms in a building). Preset, sequence and zone level adjustments all happen within a
"space".
Each panel supports separation of its controllable outputs (relays, 0–10V Dimming Control,
and DALI Control). Spaces 1 through 255 are available for assignment, with spaces 1–16
reserved for Echo control.

9 Power Control Processor Mk2 Configuration Manual
Outputs
An output refers to the physical position of the relay, dimmer, or intelligent breaker in the
panel. Up to 48 circuit outputs are available based on the type of system installed.
• The ERP-FT can be populated with single-pole and double-pole relays, and the ERP Mains
Feed can be populated with single-pole, double-pole, and three-pole relays.
• In an ERPMains Feed, a double-pole relay requires two output positions, and a three-
pole relay requires three output positions.
• The ERPcan be populated with dimmer modules. Each dimmer module is the same size,
and installs in the same manner, as a single-pole relay module.
• The Sensor IQ 120V can be populated with single-pole, double-pole, and three-pole
breakers. Sensor IQ 277V does not support multi-pole breakers.
• In a Sensor IQ, a double-pole relay requires two output positions and a three-pole relay
requires three output positions.
Circuits
Circuits are the logical reference number used to talk about a controllable output in the ERP
Mains Feed and ERPFeedthrough. Circuits are unique within a space and are user-configurable
in software. The combination of space and circuit provides a unique identification of an output
within a system.
For example, a single panel can have two circuits numbered 1 when they belong to separate
spaces.
Source Arbitration
Each panel can accept a variety of control sources, including DMX, Streaming ACN(sACN),
presets, sequences, manual set levels, and panic.
Circuit output arbitration is based on the sACNmodel of source priority, meaning each source
is assigned a priority between 1 and 201 (201 is the highest priority). With this priority, control
sources are arbitrated based on their set priority. The default priority is 100.
The panel uses the priority assigned within the sACNpacket, sent from the control soure. Each
panel sets the configured priority for DMX, presets, and sequences.
The Contact Input Option card can be used to:
• trigger presets and sequences, which will play at the priority configured for architectural
sources or;
• directoy control one or more outputs. The priority of these outputs is configurable. If
nothing is configured, the last action takes precedence.
Manually setting levels from the user interface of the Power Control Processor overrides all
other control sources with the exception of panic, which is the highest possible priority.
Zones
A Space within an an Echo control system can be broken down further into zones. You can
assign a zone to an Echo station for direct control using that station's buttons or faders. You
can have multiple zones within a space, and a single zone can control multiple outputs across
mutliple panels.

The User Interface
The Power Control Processor Mk2 features a simple user interface with up and down arrows
for menu navigation, a numeric keypad for direct selection, and an easy-to-read graphical
display. Additionally, a USBport is provided on the left side of the controller for storage of
configurations to a flash drive.

The Display
The Power Control Processor Mk2 features a high-contrast, 21-character, 8-line, backlit
screen. When scrolling through the menu, the first row of the display is reserved for the menu
title.
A scroll bar displays on the right side of the screen, indicating there is more content to be
displayed. Use [Up] () and [Down] () on the User Interface to scroll through the available
menus.
Wake
The menu system and display backlight are set, by default, to sleep after three minutes of
inactivity. Any button press wakes the user interface and backlight.
Home Screen
The home screen is shown by default at power-up. The display reverts to the home screen
automatically from any point in the menu after two minutes of user inactivity.
Two displays are available from the home interface:
• The Output Status screen shows information about the current state of the channels.
• The Arch Control Status screen shows present status information.
Switch between the two screens by pressing [Up] () or [Down] ().
Contrast
From the home screen, press and hold [Back] ( ) and press [Up] () to increase the display
contrast or [Down] () to decrease the display contrast.
Backup Power Active
Three seconds after mains power is no longe detected, ERPMains feed or Sensor IQ will display
a warning message " BACKUP POWERACTIVE! " While this warning is displayed, all other
menu screens are inaccessible.
Once mains voltage is restored, the display will revert back to the home screen and menu
functionality will return.
