1.5 Status LEDs
1.5.1 DMX DATA
The DATA LED illuminates to indicate the
presence of valid DMX512 data on the DMX
INPUT connector. If the data signal is lost, the
indicator double-flashes to indicate data failure.
All dimmers will hold their current levels until
data is restored or the Redback is powered
down or re-set.
1.5.2 DMX ERR
The DMX Error LED indicates errors in the
DMX512 data arriving at the DMX INPUT
connector.
The problems that cause error indication
include:
•
a noisy DMX512 signal due to poor or
damaged cables or connections,
particularly if the shielding is not
continuous or one of the signal pair is
broken.
•
damaged or incomplete data packets
from a faulty DMX512 transmitter on a
control console or a data splitter.
•
unterminated DMX512 line.
1.5.3 ~1 ~2 ~3 (Mains power)
The three power indicator LEDs illuminate to
indicate suitable voltage and frequency being
supplied to the Redback.
Three Phase Supply
When configured for three phase operation, the
~1 ~2 ~3 LEDs indicate the availability of the
corresponding phase of mains supply All three
supply phases must be present for full operation
of all dimmers.
Single Phase Supply
When configured for single phase operation,
input supply cabling is bridged and all three
power LEDs illuminate if the mains supply is
available.
1.6 SD flash memory slot
The card slot accepts standard full-size SD
memory cards up to 2GB for loading firmware
updates. MiniSD and microSD flash cards can
be used when fitted into a standard SD adapter.
Note: The slot is not compatible with the SDHC
(Secure Digital High Capacity) data format used in SD
cards over 2GB.
1.7 Load Circuit Breakers
Each load circuit is protected by a 10amp
miniature circuit breaker. For normal operation
the circuit breaker lever should be in the up
position, displaying a red indicator triangle (as
illustrated).
The indicator triangle is green if the circuit
breaker has been switched off or has tripped
due to a fault.
1.8 DMX512 sockets
Redback is DMX512 (1990), DMX512-A (E1-11)
and RDM (E1-20) compliant, with standard XLR
5 pin Input and Thru sockets.
1.9 Load sockets
The 4RU version of the Redback has the load
sockets mounted on the front panel.
The 2RU version of the Redback has the load
sockets mounted on the rear panel.
