PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Preset 10 Architectural Two is a further developm ent of our popular Preset 10 Architectural controller. The Preset 10
Architectural Two (PRE10A2) offers new features and different wiring options. The new features of the PRE10A2 include a
grand m aster, pile on m ode (input + preset), jum per selectable button m odes (radio or push on/push off), and a two gang form
factor that allows PRE10A2 to fit in all two gang back boxes. The PRE10A2 has separate input and output ports allowing
m erging incom ing levels with the local preset. This cascading of inputs allows creation of system s where m ultiple PRE10A2
stations and a live theatrical console can share control. Additionally, system s can be created where m ulti-room control is
required by a single dim m ing system .
The Preset 10 Architectural Two lighting control station capable of storing up to ten presets. These presets are recorded by
capturing the output of a DMX512 console. Each preset can then be assigned a unique fade tim e, from 0 to 999 seconds.
Presets are recalled by pressing one of the buttons.
System s can be created by using one or m ore stations and a power supply. The solid alum inum faceplate is designed to install
over a standard two gang electrical box. Connections to the Preset 10 Architectural Two are power (2 wires) and DMX512 (3
wires). Power for the Preset 10 can be supplied from a variety of sources, including a 10V class 2 “doorbell” transform er.
The Preset 10 Architectural Two system can work in conjunction with a lighting console, autom atically switching between
preset and console control or by com bining the console’s levels with the active preset. In switch over m ode when the console
generates DM X the Preset 10 Architectural Two goes off-line. The console then operates norm ally. Upon loss of DMX from
the console, the Preset 10 Architectural Two either returns to its pervious preset or holds the last look (jum per selectable).
In com bining m ode the Preset 10 Architectural Two m erges the levels from the console with the levels of the currently active
preset.
