The Panic feature allows you to select desired channels, via dip switches 1-6, to
be constantly on.
The DP-640B was designed to be mounted or free standing. It is recommended
that you use a suitable mounting clamp and safety cable when mounting clamp
and rigging to a truss structure. There are two sets of threads on the DP-640B.
They are in place for the mounting bracket. Use the bracket knobs and washers to
secure the mounting bracket to either side of the pack. For cooling purposes,
it is necessary to mount the pack so that air is free to circulate around the dimmer.
There should be at least 12 inches of clearance between the pack and anything
surrounding it.
The DP-640B is supplied with dual 20 Amp Edison plugs attached to 12 gauge
line cords. These cords should be connected to a service capable of suppling
20 amps per line cord and be protected by a properly sized main circuit breaker.
Lamp loads should be plugged into the dual 20 Amp Edison sockets which are
supplied on the face of the pack. 3 & 5 pin XLR's are supplied for the DMX input
and output of the data link. Connect out of the DMX controller orprevious fixture
in line and into the input of the DP-640B. Connect out of the DP-640B and into
the input of next pack or fixture in line. It is recommended that the last pack or
fixture in line include a DMX terminator into the output. A DMX terminator
consists of a 120 ohm, 1/4 watt resistor soldered across pins 2 & 3 of a standard
3 or 5 pin XLR connector.
