Terminate Wiring 33
Connect Control Wiring
Overview
All low voltage data and option wiring connects to pluggable connectors on the left and right
I/O boards near the bottom of the DRd enclosure.
The DRd ships with a right side I/O board for low voltage control connections. Left side I/O
board is available in the optional Paradigm and Echo Termination Kits.
• The Paradigm Left I/O Kit supports contact inputs and outputs, serial RS232 and
Ethernet control. This Left I/O board is not compatible with the SmartLink or Echo
Architectural Control Processors.
• The Echo Network Kit supports an Ethernet connection for the Echo ACP. The Echo
Network Kit is not compatible with the SmartLink or Paradigm ACPs.
• The right side I/O board is shipped installed with each DRd and provides termination
for SmartLink / LinkConnect / EchoConnect, auxiliary power, DMX, and a UL 924
emergency contact input. The DRd enclosure supports option kits which install in the
bottom of the DRd for extended control and operation and terminate to the right I/O
board. Option modules include:
• 0-10V Control Option (DRd-FLO) which provides 24 outputs for control of 0-10V
(4-wire) control for LED drivers and fluorescent ballasts. Each channel output is
linked one-to-one with a circuit for power control.
• Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DRd-DALI) which provides 24 outputs for
control of DALI-compatible fluorescent ballasts. Each channel output of DALI
control is linked one-to-one with a circuit for power control (DALI Broadcast Mode).
• Unison RideThru kit provides power to the ACP during brief power outages or drop
outs. The URTO sustains power to the ACP for at least 12 seconds.
• Unison BatteryPack kit sustains power to the ACP for up to 90 minutes during
power outages.
N o t e : All low voltage control cables must run in separate conduit from power wires.
N o t e : A DRd enclosure supports the use of either a DALI option board (DRd-DALI) or
the FLO option board (DRd-FLO), but not both.

Right I/O board -
ships standard with
each DRd enclosure.
Left I/O board is
available as part of the
Paradigm Termination
Kit which ships with
the Paradigm ACP.
An optional Left I/O kit
is available for use
with Echo ACP when
DRd is being used in a
networked system.
