Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits
for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment o and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dierent from that to which
the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
WARNING
Shock Hazard. May result in serious injury or death.
Turn power OFF at circuit breaker or remove fuse. Damage to this
product caused by wiring with power on voids the warranty.
Due to risk of electric shock, a licensed electrician should install this
power supply unit in strict compliance with the National Electric
Code and any state or local code which may apply.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.

INSTALLATION
Overview of Third Party Controls:
The class 2 control input/output compartment enables interface with
numerous devices. Choose appropriate terminals based upon your
application.
Sections Include:
Analog I/O
This section contains four ports. Each port can be congured
independently to be any of the following control types (refer to
applicable protocol wiring diagrams):
• Contact closure input
• Contact closure output
• 0-10V input
• 0-10V output
• 0-24V input
DMX
This section contains two ports: “DMX In” and “DMX Out/Thru.”
“DMX Out/Thru” can be congured to either pass through
“DMX In” signal or operate as a stand-alone DMX universe of
control. Refer to applicable protocol wiring diagrams.
If only “DMX In” is being used, make sure DMX Connection toggle switch
is set to “Terminated.”
