User manual AMX RDD-DM4 4-CHANNEL INTEGRATED DIMMER MODULE

[. . . ] Installation Sheet RDD-DM4 4-Channel Integrated Dimmer Module 120, 240, 277 VAC The RDD-DM4 Four-Channel Integrated Dimmer Module controls up to six dimmed channels with four 1200 W onboard dimmers and two satellite connectors (for RDM series dimmer or switching modules). It is designed for use with the RDA series of enclosures, in an AMX LightingTM modular digital dimming system. The RDD-DM4 is controlled by AXlink, PROlink, or by dry (contact) closures. [. . . ] Use low-voltage wires with a 300 volt rating or greater. All electrical ratings are for continuous duty. This module may require extra power from the AXlink connection or an external power supply connected to the control card.
