Dimmers using hard-switching semiconductor devices, such as SCRs or other thyristors, shall not be acceptable. The dimmers shall not use filter chokes to control the rate of rise in the load current waveform. BARTOS ARCHITECTURE, INC. Section R21 Powered Raceway - 5

18 B. Electrical 1. Each dimmer module shall contain two dimmers, each capable of controlling a 2400 watt load. Total load capacity of each dimmer module shall be capped at 20 Amps. If the load capacity is exceeded, the module shall automatically turn-off the last load energized 2. Dimmer electronics shall be completely solid state. 3. The dimmers shall be immune from damage caused by output short-circuits between load and neutral or load and ground. C. Performance 1. The insertion loss (voltage drop across the complete dimmer at full load current while producing a full output sine wave) shall be less than three volts RMS. Insertion loss at reduced dimmer loading shall not vary significantly from that produced with a full rated load. Dimmers with insertion loss greater than three volts RMS at full rated load shall not be acceptable. 2. The dimmers shall use Digital Power Envelope Processing to regulate dimmer output to within +/- 0.5 volts RMS of the assigned setting. Regulating response shall occur in the same power line cycle as the disturbance when the dimmer is in Reverse Phase Control (RPC) mode. 3. The system shall provide status information to any Strand Lighting network control console. The following information shall be reported: a. Present power line voltage b. Connected lamp wattage c. Present output setting d. Dimmer operating temperature e. Dimming mode f. Overload condition g. No load condition h. Focus mode 4. The dimmers shall hold last received level for a pre-specified period, should the control signal be interrupted. 5. Dimmer Modules shall automatically switch from Reverse Phase Control (RPC) mode to Forward Phase Control (FPC) mode when inductive loads are detected. In RPC mode the dimmer is on from the beginning of the half-cycle until the desired output voltage is reached. In FPC mode, the dimmer turns on within the half-cycle and stays on until the end of the half-cycle. Use of RPC mode, when load type and other conditions permit, reduces the level of lamp filament noise. 6. The system shall also support a low harmonics mode that shall reduce harmonic currents present on the feed neutral conductor by automatically switching the dimmers in the system to an optimum configuration of FPC and RPC operation. The reduction in neutral current shall be a minimum of 33% with a maximum of 100%, depending upon load sizes and their associated levels. 7. When in RPC mode, dimmer output voltage transition time is measured as "fall time". The actual "fall time" generated shall not be affected by the size of the load present. Dimmers shall provide a minimum fall time of 800 µs under normal load current regardless of load. BARTOS ARCHITECTURE, INC. Section R21 Powered Raceway - 6

19 8. The dimmer transfer function shall comply with the industry standard Square Law dimming curve within a tolerance of +/- 0.5 Volts RMS for all incandescent loads. 9. Each dimmer shall have an associated Focus push button that provides local ON/OFF/LEVEL control for focusing, maintenance and other purposes. If the level set for a dimmer is zero, tapping the Focus button shall set the dimmer output to full. Pressing and holding the Focus button ramps the dimmer output up to any intermediate level. When a non-zero level is received from the controller, the dimmer shall return to normal operation. Tapping the Focus button a second time shall also return the dimmer to normal operation. If a dimmer already has a non-zero level from the control desk, the Focus button flashes the dimmer to full output. In all cases, activating the Focus button shall be reported to the system operator, at the console or system monitor. 10. Each dimmer shall have an LED display to facilitate local reporting of operating conditions. 11. Each dimmer will detect operating conditions and take active measures to protect itself (and the load). Protective measures shall include, but are not limited to the following: a. At power-up, each dimmer will detect line voltages in excess of 180 VAC. When over-voltage is detected, the dimmer will not turn on its load. The dimmer will also notify the operator and flash its locally mounted LEDs. Dimmers shall withstand line voltages up to 230 VAC for an indefinite period and up to 280 VAC for fifteen minutes with no damage. b. Each dimmer shall detect excessive heat sink operating temperatures and notify the console of the condition via system status reporting. The dimmer shall automatically reduce its own "fall time", which minimizes the production of heat. Dimmers will step from 800 µs to 250 µs. If heat continues to rise, the dimmer will shut down, notify the console via IPS Talkback and flash its locally mounted LEDs. c. Each dimmer shall detect load current in excess of its own rating. An overload will cause a dimmer to shut down, notify the console and flash its locally mounted LEDs. Part Series Control Console Specification 4.01 Overview A.
