Brief Introduction
This Decoder is specially designed for high power LED lamps. The decoder has 3 output channels, outputs 350mA/700mA constant current PWM driving signal; each channel can realize 256 level grey control. Use DMX512 constant current decoder to directly control
high power single/RGB color LED lamps without constant current IC, which do not need any extra circuit component, it could be connected with high power LED lamps in series.
Feature function:
1. 3 Output Channels, connect single/RGB color LED lamps.
2. 0-100% brightness adjusting, 256 levels of grey scale per channel.
3. Standard DMX512 input protocol set address with dip-switch.
4. Wide voltage input: DC12V-48V.
5. 10 testing modes, 8 levels of changing speed.
6. 2 Models: 350mA / 700mA constant current output.

Safety warnings
Please don’t install this controller in lightening, intense magnetic, and high-voltage fields.
1.To reduce the risk of component damage and fire caused by a short circuit, make the sure correct connection
2.Always be sure to mount this unit in an area that will allow proper ventilation to ensure a fitting temperature.
3.Check if the voltage and power adapter suit the controller
(please select DC12-48V power supply with constant voltage)
4.Donot connect cables with power on; make sure a correct connection and no short circuit
checked with the instrument before power on.
5.Please don’t open the controller cover and operate if problems occur. The manual is only suitable for this model; any update is subject to change without prior notice.
NOTE: According to DMX512 protocol, in order to ensure steady data transmission, you should add a metal star(Metal Thin Film resistor，90-120Ω 1/4 W )at the end of each layout of DMX data cable(between Foot 2 and Foot 3, Data + and Data -), please also refer to your DMX console manual to select a correct resistor.
Operating instructions
1. Decoder address setting
This decoder occupies 3 addresses, adopted Dip switch to set the address, the Dip switches from 1 to 9 are a kind of binary value coding switches used to set DMX512 initial address code, the correlative bits is the 1-9 bits of the DIP switch, the 1st bit is LSC, the 9th
bit MSC, 512 addresses totally. DMX512 initial address code is equal to the total amount of the Dip switches’ number from 1 to 9, press Dip switches downward (ON: at position “1”), user can get the number of its
position, if pressing upward (at position “0”), the number of its position is 0. Accept DMX512 signal only when the DIP switch FUN＝OFF (at position “0”)

Kindly Reminder
1.Power Source Selection
The power source must be a DC constant voltage type of power supply. Due to the efficient output in some power supplies are only 80% of the total, so please select at least 20% higher output power supply than the consumption of LED lights.
