Installation
PDS-150eisanindoor-ratedpower/datasupplydesignedforLEDlightingfixtures
fromPhilipsColorKinetics.Itsupportsuptosixfixturesandfeaturesshortcircuit
protectionanddiagnosticindicatorstoassistwiththeproperoperationofPhilips
ColorKineticslightingsystems.ThePDS-150eenclosureisdesignedforuseindry
locations.
Owner / User Responsibilities
Itistheresponsibilityofthecontractor,installer,purchaser,owner,andusertoinstall,
maintain,andoperatePDS-150einsuchamannerastocomplywithallapplicable
codes,stateandlocallaws,ordinances,andregulations.Consultwiththeappropriate
electricalinspectortoensurecompliance.
Plan the Installation
Tostreamlineinstallationandensureaccurateconguration,startwithalayoutora
lightingdesignplanthatshowsthephysicallayoutoftheinstallationandidentiesthe
locationsofalllightingxtures,PDS-150edevices,controllers,switches,andcables.
DMX and Ethernet Congurations
PDS-150ecanbeusedineitherDMXorEthernetnetworks.
TypicalDMXinstallationswithintelligentLEDfixturesfromPhilipsColorKinetics
useacontrollersuchasiPlayer3,aControllerKeypadfortriggeringlightshowsand
turningfixturesonandoff,andoneormorePDS-150edevices.PDS-150edevices
canbeconnectedinseriestodeliverDMXdatafromasinglecontrollertoall
connectedlights.
TypicalEthernetinstallationswithPhilipsColorKineticsLEDfixturesusean
Ethernetswitch,anEthernetcontrollersuchasLightSystemManagerorColorDial

PDS-150e Product Guide 5
Electrical Conguration Guidelines
EachPDS-150epower/datasupplyaccommodatesuptothreeColorBlast12
fixtures,orsixC-Splash,ColorBlast6,orColorBurst6fixtures.
EachPDS-150edevicemustbeinstalledonadry,unobstructed18x18in(457x457
mm)areathatallowsairtomovefreelyaroundthedevice.Startupandoperating
temperaturesareratedto122°F(50°C).Exceedingthistemperaturelimitmay
causedevicedamageorfailure.
Data Conguration Guidelines
WhenselectingmountinglocationsforthePDS-150edevicesinyourinstallation,
keepcableandfixturerunlengthlimitsinmind:
• InEthernetnetworks,maximumdatacableslengthsare328ft(100m)between
Ethernetdeviceswithoutarepeater.
• InDMXnetworks,maximumdatarunlengthsare1000ft(305m).The
maximumnumberofPDS-150edevicesthatcanbeconnectedinseriesis32.We
recommendusingtheon-boardDMXrepeaterforrunsofmorethan32
PDS-150edevicesconnectedinseries.However,forrunlengthsoflongerthan
1000ft(305m),werecommendusingathird-party,commercially-availableDMX
repeater.
PDS-150eallowsyoutoinputEthernetnetworkdataandoutputaDMXsignalto
downstreamdevicesandxtures.
Inspect PDS-150e and Accessories
CarefullyinspecttheboxcontainingthePDS-150eandthecontentsforanydamage.
Assemble Additional Items
ThefollowingadditionalitemsarerequiredtomountandconnectthePDS-150e:
• Fourmountingscrewssuitableforthemountingsurface
• Theincluded14coverscrewsandlockwashers

PDS-150e Product Guide6
Position and Mount the PDS-150e
MakesurethedeviceispoweredOFFbeforemountingandconnecting.
1. IfyouareusinganEthernetnetworkandyourinstallationrequiresmultiple
PDS-150edevices,recordtheIPaddressesinalayoutgrid(typicallyaspreadsheet
orlist)foreasyreference.
2. Assigneachdevicetoapositioninthelayoutorlightingdesignplan.
3. Toaccommodatecablesorconduit,removetheknockoutsfromtheopenings
priortomounting.
4. PositioneachPDS-150edeviceinitsdesignatedmountinglocation.Makesurethe
mountingsurfaceisat,suitableforthemountinghardware,andclearofdebris
andotherobstructions.
 TheoveralldimensionsofeachPDS-150edeviceare10.4in(264mm)x10.1in
(257mm)widex4.4in(112mm)high.Makesurethemountinglocationallowsa
minimumof4in(102mm)aroundthehousing,sothataircanmovefreelyaround
thedevice.BecarefulnottoobstructtheventsonthetoporsidesofthePDS-
150ehousing.Ifthedeviceistobemountedonawall,besurethatthevented
sidesofthedevicearefacinguportotheside,neverdown.(Thisallowsrising
heattoescapefromthetopandsidesoftheunit.)

EWhen mounting PDS-150e on a wall, be
sure to position the device with the conduit
side facing the oor. This allows rising heat
to escape from the housing’s top and side
vents.

included 5-pin connector ts into this port,
which can supply power and receive data via
