Description
8-Channel Ballast Controller Module (458/CTR8)
The 458/CTR8 is an eight-channel digital ballast controller module capable of controlling 0–10 V, 1–10 V, DSI®, DALI broadcast or PWM loads. It has both a DALI and an SDIM/ DMX interface, and therefore can be fully integrated into a DIGIDIM or an Imagine router system. It can also be used on the TouchPanel or on standalone DALI or DIGIDIM systems.
The module has eight high-inrush relays, rated at 16 A per channel.
The front of the module is equipped with an LCD display and a keypad to set basic configuration parameters and provide basic control of channel and output levels.
The module is easily fitted to a 458Mx chassis, in which each load channel is protected by an individual MCB.
Note: The 458/CTR8 8-Channel Ballast Controller Modules are supplied separately from the 458Mx chassis.
Key Features
- Easily attached to a 458Mx chassis and connected to the mains supply for quick installation.
- LCD display screen and a five-button keypad for monitoring, configuration and manual control.
- Universal mains power supply: 85 VAC – 264 VAC (absolute).
Control Features
Each channel of the control module can be configured to operate in any of the following modes:
- 0–10 V → source 20 mA
- 1–10 V → sink 100 mA
- DSI® (Digital Signal Interface) → source 100 mA
- PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) → source 100 mA
- DALI broadcast → source 100 mA
