Control Wiring
Multiple Control Protocols
To ensure maximum versatility, the Universal Source
Controllers provide full compatibility with a range of control
protocols, including:
• iCAN bus
• DMX512A
• RS-485
• Ethernet
Connections for the iCAN bus, DMX512A and RS-485
protocols are made using removable plug blocks which
snap into terminals mounted on the control circuit board.
A standard RJ45 socket is provided for the ethernet
connection.
In addition, a separate connector block (labeled ‘Contact
closure’) allows two, volt-free switch inputs from external
systems. Wire distance should not exceed 32 feet (10m)
from the Source Controller. Subject to configuration menu
settings, these inputs can be used to affect selected
channels.
The control connections are located just below the control
panel, accessible either through a removable mini panel or
when the complete casing is removed.
Termination
The iCAN, DMX and RS-485 are ‘daisy-chain’ protocols that
all require termination on the devices located at either end
of the chain.
The Switched Relay Controller provide jumper links adjacent
to the iCAN, DMX and RS-485 connectors. As standard all of
these interfaces are terminated. To remove termination for a
particular bus, move the associated termination jumper from
the upper two pins to the lower two pins.
