The Matrix Processor has capacity to accept Ethernet data and regular DMX, to
choose two universes from the Ethernet data (for main and backup control lines A
and B), and to output DMX on XLR and RJ45 cat5 connections.
Matrix Mk.II Modules
The range of modules includes a choice of SCR rated at 3kW, 5kW or
12kW per channel with 400µS risetime chokes, Sine wave dimmers rated
at 1.25kW, 2.3kW, 3kW, 5kW or 12kW per channel, fluorescent modules
rated at 3kW or 5kW per channel, Non-Dim relays rated at 16A or 32A,
continuous supply modules rated at 16A, 32A or 63A, Solid-state switches
4kW HMI and 10kW 3-phase HMI non-dim relays with ignition detection.
Matrix Mk.II offers either 1,2,4 or 6 channel module options depending on
protection required. Generally, most 6 channel modules include one RCD
and 6 individual MCBs, and a 4 channel module has space for individual
RCBOs per channel.
Matrix Mk.II dimmer cabinets
The range of Matrix Mk.II dimming cabinets includes 1600 and
2000mm heights, 600 or 800mm widths (800mm incorporates
a front access only swing frame), and a choice of wiring to
accommodate up to a maximum of 6 channels per module.
The 6-channel wiring version provides higher density, and
gives more flexibility for future expansion (it is compatible with
4-channel modules as well).
All terminals are high-specification spring loaded terminals for
4mm (3kW), 10mm (5kW) and 16mm (10kW) load
terminations.
There are 4 styles of cabinet for either 6-way or 4-way
configurations, with or without swing frame (front access only).
All are in standard ETC colours except where shown:
