QS System QSE-CI-DMX Control Interfaces
369372f 2 09.03.19
Specifications
Regulatory Approvals
• RoHS Compliant
Power Requirements
• Low-voltage SELV / PELV / NEC
® Class 2
• Operating Voltage: 24–36 V- 65 mA
Environment
• 32 °F to 104 °F (0 °C to 40 °C).
• Relative humidity less than 90% non-condensing.
• Unit generates heat, maximum 8 BTU / hr.
System Capabilities/Limits
QS Link System Limits (for units controlled by a
GRAFIK Eye QS control unit)
• 100 QS devices per QS link.
• 100 zones per QS link.
QS Link System Limits (for units controlled by a
Quantum system or HomeWorks system)
• 99 QS devices per QS link.
• 512 switch legs per link (each DMX channel = 1 switch leg).
• 32 DMX channels per QSE-CI-DMX control interface.
QS Link Wiring Limits
• Total length of link must not exceed 2000 ft (610 m).
• Do not allow SELV / PELV / NEC
® Class 2 wires to
contact line/mains wires.
DMX512 Link System Limits
• Consult your DMX equipment installer.
DMX512 Link Wiring Limits
• Each terminal can accept up to two 18 AWG (1.0 mm
2
)
wires.
• Link must be 1000 ft (305 m) or less.
• DMX Link must begin and end with link terminators
(available from Lutron; part number LT-1).
• Three pins on the DMX connector for connecting the
QSE-CI-DMX to DMX512-controlled equipment.
Limitations
• In a Quantum system or HomeWorks system, only 32
DMX channels can be programmed per device. The
32 channels can be any of the 512 available
addresses, so DMX combiners can be used if more
than 32 DMX channels need to be controlled from a
single DMX universe.
• Daylighting is not supported for DMX loads.
• Loadshedding is not supported for DMX loads.
• Nightlighting is not supported for DMX loads.
• 1-channel lighting can be raised / lowered, but
1-channel integration and RGB can not.
Note: In a stand-alone system, raise / lower cycles
through the RGB color table.
Requirements
The QSE-CI-DMX requires the following:
• At least one GRAFIK Eye QS control unit connected to
the QSE-CI-DMX through the QS communication link,
or
A Quantum system
or
A HomeWorks system
• QS Link power supply; either:
- GRAFIK Eye QS control unit, as long as the GRAFIK
Eye QS control unit is NOT powering any other QS
link devices drawing a total of two (2) or more power
draw units
- QS Link power supply, such as the QSPS-P1-1-50
or
A Quantum Light Management Hub
Note: The QSE-CI-DMX consumes 2 power draw units
on the QS link; see the SELV / PELV / NEC
® Class 2
QS Link Requirements and Wiring section for more
information
• DMX512 link terminators at both ends of the DMX512
link (available from Lutron, part number LT-1)
• QS Communication Link Wire (SELV / PELV / NEC
®
Class 2). See the Wire Sizes table.
