Introduction
Wybron's 150-, 300- and 600-watt PS Power Supply units attach easily to a truss or can
be mounted into a 19-inch rack. A Power Supply unit can be controlled by one or
several DMX512 channels that send DMX signals from the lighting console to each
device along with 24 volts DC. Both the signal and the power travel along a single
cable, eliminating the need for a separate power cable for each device.
Each unit provides power for Wybron's feedback-compatible IT products, which send
feedback to their operators using Remote Device Management, an ESTA-standard two-
way communication protocol.

System Components
Power Supply
The power supply accepts DMX512 from a lighting console and passes it along with
24VDC power to each device. This eliminates the need for separate control and power
cables to each device. The DMX512 control signal can also be daisy chained to other
PS power supplies or other DMX-controlled devices.
Caution: The PS Power Supply is compatible with Forerunner devices but
NOT the RAM/Coloram II family of devices (i.e. Coloram II, CXI, Goboram II,
etc.) DO NOT connect PS compatible devices to RAM/Coloram II Power
Supplies, or RAM/Coloram II compatible devices to PS Power Supplies.
Damage from such action will not be covered by the equipment warranties.
PS Compatible Devices
•Nexera LX
•Coloram IT
•CXI IT
•Forerunner
•Eclipse IT Iris
•Eclipse IT Shutter
Refer to the user manuals for detailed operating information on these products.
Power/Data Cable
The Power/Data Cable connects the Power Supply outputs to the connected devices
and provides them with power and control signal. The cable uses 4-pin XLR connectors
on either end and consists of two 14 AWG conductors and a 22 AWG twisted, shielded
pair. See the “Cable” section of this manual for the pin-out.

Installing the Power Supply
1. Mount the Power Supply
The Power Supply is designed to be freestanding, truss-mounted, or rack-
mounted.
The Power Supply comes with a mounting bracket that hooks over the pipe or
truss of your lighting rig and is locked into place with a thumb screw. If you use
this mounting method, connect the Power Supply's safety cable by clipping it
around the pipe or truss.
The Power Supply can also be mounted into a 19" rack using the optional rack
mount kit. The rack mount kit will accommodate two units side-by-side.
2. Connect the Device to the Power Supply
Connect the device to the Power Supply using Wybron’s 4-pin power/data cable.
Refer to the HEAD-FEET RESTRICTION section of the manual for details of the
length of cable runs.
Note: The Wybron Power/Data Cable has been specially designed to minimize
voltage drop. Use only Wybron-supplied cable.
3. Connect the Power Supply to AC Power
Plug the AC cord into a non-dimmed power circuit. The power supply
automatically accommodates 100 – 240V ~ 50/60 Hz.
Caution: Do not power the Power Supply from a dimmed circuit.
Severe damage will result and is not covered by product warranty.
A red LED (viewable from the stage) indicates power.
4. Connect and Set the DMX512 Source
Connect the DMX512 signal source to the DMX input connector on the front of
the power supply using standard DMX cable. The presence of a valid DMX signal
will be indicated by a flashing green LED.

Power Supply User Manual
Updated March 2009
Page 11
Head-Feet Restrictions
The HEAD-FEET parameter is a method of accounting for the voltage drop in the
power/signal cable caused by the current drawn by each device.
To help understand this issue, think of it as water pressure (voltage) in a hose (cable)
where there are multiple water sprinkler heads (color changers). If the hose (cable) is
too long, or there are too many sprinkler heads (color changers), the water pressure
(voltage) will be too low.
HEAD-FEET is defined as "the sum of cable lengths from each device to a single power
supply output.”
For Head-Feet information on a specific Wybron product, please refer to that product’s
user manual.

Mounting and Installation Accessories
The following sections describe how to install and replace mounting accessories.
Power Supply Hanger Brackets
The Power Supply units are shipped with hanger brackets to allow pipe or truss
mounting.
Follow these steps to install the hanger bracket.
1. Disconnect AC power from the power supply.
2. Place the power supply on its side on a flat surface.
3. Position the brackets as shown on the next page.
4. Attach the bracket using a 3/16" Allen wrench and the supplied screws.
Note: Use the supplied thumb screws to clamp the hanger brackets to the desired pipe
or truss.
Power Supply Rack Mounting
The rack mount accessory can be used with up to two Power Supplies and allows them
to be mounted into a 19-inch rack.

Infotrace
Imagine checking your lighting equipment and diagnosing any problems without
grabbing a ladder or strapping on a harness. It's possible with Wybron's award-winning
Infotrace Control and Management System, which gives you the tools to manage
your rig without leaving your computer. Using the feedback protocol Remote Device
Management, or RDM, Infotrace enables you to inspect and address everything in your
lighting system, managing it and knowing that it works.
The diagram above outlines Infotrace’s key components, which include:
Infogate – The software and hardware required to facilitate the transfer and display of
information.
Infochip – A conversion chip that can be used with non-RDM equipment to allow
communication with the Infogate software.
Infostore – An Internet-based application that aggregates data captured by Infogate
and allows for the accumulation of historical information related to the equipment
performance in the installation.
IT Products – Coloram IT, CXI IT, Eclipse IT Iris, and Eclipse IT Shutter all have
updated electronics to support RDM communication plus additional product
improvements, including sensors to detect a variety of conditions.
The heart of the Infotrace system is Infogate — specialized software that uses RDM to
facilitate remote addressing and diagnostics for potentially every piece of equipment
mounted on a rig. Infogate works with all Wybron-manufactured IT products as well as
RDM-compatible equipment from any other manufacturer.

Cables
Power/Data Cable
The power/data cable uses 4-pin XLR connectors on either end and consists of two 14
AWG conductors and a 22 AWG twisted, shielded pair. The shells of the two XLR
connectors are not electrically connected together, preventing large power currents from
flowing from chassis to chassis of the equipment. The twisted pair shield is connected at
the male XLR connector end only.
XLR Pin # Wire Color Function Size
1 White Ground 14 AWG
2 Green Data - 22 AWG
3 Red Data + 22 AWG
4 Black 24VDC 14 AWG
DMX512 Control Cable
The DMX control cable from the lighting console to the power supply is a five-conductor
cable with 5-pin XLR connectors on each end. The wiring pin-out is specified by the
USITT DMX512/1990 standard.
