ControLite Excalibur LCD Dimmer
12-channel dimmer in a robust 19" / 3Us slide-in steel-plated case, available in 12x10A and 12x16A as well as 6x25A and 6x32A versions.
For the DELTA power mains (e.g., ship installations; please see separate entry), the 12x16A and 6x32A versions are also available with double-pole automatic cut-outs per channel. All versions feature menu management via illuminated VF display, 4 cursor buttons, and an encoder, making for easy setting of various dimmer curves, channel patches, preheats, and limiters for each channel. The integrated memory enables you to program 30 cues and 3 sequence patterns of up to 30 steps per pattern. Wear-resistant cursor buttons and rotary encoder select all dimmer functions.
In addition, the following technical features ensure safe and reliable operation:
- three independent mains / control sets (one per phase)
- active phase-independent cooling (DC ventilating fan with two-stage,
temperaturedependent rotation speed)
- temperature indicator with protective disconnect
- excess temperature display
- overvoltage indicator with protective disconnect
- mains fault indicator
- undervoltage operation up to 30% under rated voltage
- soft start after switching on and restarting following protective disconnect
- channel-specific LED indicators for fuse failure, load identification, and control input
- further indicators via illuminated display
- all settings menu-driven via 1 data wheel and 4 buttons
- test function for each channel
- limiter function for each channel
- adjustable dimmer operation frequency 50/60Hz
- adjustable lamp preheat
- 4 different dimmer curves can be set
- channel patching (control addresses can be assigned freely to any dimmer channel)
- “stand alone“ operation (without control desk; various presets, i.e., memories, such as
chaser sequences can be set)
- DMX-failure presets can be programmed
- supply voltage for lighting control desk
- LED indicator for DMX control signal
The ControLite dimmers offer pre-selection of settings in case of DMX failure: all channels 0%, all channels 100%, maintain the last signal received, or switch to one of the settings stored in the 30 memories. The dimmers feature top-grade interference elimination (degree of interference suppression better than N) and can be operated one- or three-phase at up to 60% undervoltage. In case of overvoltage, a protective circuit is activated.
