DocumentDocumentDMeXit Emergency Controller Installation Guide OVERVIEW The Pathway DMeXit is a UL924 certified controller designed to send a control signal to DMX lighting in emergencies to satisfy minimum luminance levels for egress lighting. DMeXit may be triggered using a wet or dry contact closure from other building management systems, or the integrated phase loss detection device. Upon trigger, a user-recordable snapshot of a single universe DMX will be transmitted to four separate data runs. The outputs are optically isolated to ensure maximum reliability and are fully RDM compliant so that your entertainment console or architectural controller still has maximum flexibility when it comes to commissioning and monitoring your system during normal operation. There are multiple options for restoring normal operation after conditions have been cleared, including user programmable time delays, sensing of valid input signal from the normal controller or a remote restore button for facilities or stage managers. IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS 1. All servicing should be performed by qualified service personal. 2. When using electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following: READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. a. Do not use outdoors. b. Do not mount near gas or electric heaters. c. Equipment should be mounted in locations and at heights where it will not readily be subjected to tampering by unauthorized personnel. d. The use of accessory equipment not recommend by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition. e. Do not use this equipment for other than its intended use. 3. The Emergency Circuits for this panel, must be fed from a UPS, generator, or other guaranteed source of power during emergency and power outage situations. 4. CAUTION - This equipment may be fed by more than one power supply source. To reduce the risk of electric shock, both normal and emergency sources feeding this unit should de-energized before servicing any equipment connected inside the marked high voltage compartments. 5. Pathway assumes no responsibility for claims arising out of improper or careless installation or handling of this product. Failure to follow any of these instructions could void product warranty. Always read complete installation instructions prior to installation! SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS STATUS INDICATORS External Indicators PWR - Green Green.

Dry contact relays or maintained switches may be used. Consult equipment manuals to verify auxiliary switches are dry contacts and maintained when active. When contact is made by the auxiliary equipment the LME 924 will trigger emergency mode and hold that mode until the contact(s) opens and the Restore time of how you have DIP switches 5,6, &7 set expires. For example if the LME 924 opens the contacts and your Restore Time is set to Factory Default of 10 seconds, it will take an additional 10 seconds before it returns to DMX pass-thru rather than emergency. There are (2) auxiliary contacts on the LME 924 which share equal priority. When EITHER auxiliary contact is closed emergency mode will be triggered. If your system is equiped with a PLD do not use parallel connections from an auxiliary source to the CCI connection on the electronics, wire them to the auxiliary connection on the LME 924. 800.535.2465 LME-924 Phase Sense 120-277 VAC Max Input Current 3mA 50/60 Hz 1Ø - 3Ø E71446 EM COM EM SW 24VDC IN COMMON DRY CONTACT ONLY Phase Sense Circuits A~ B~ C~ Neutral Protect AC sense leads with 20A max fuse(s) and/or circuit breaker(s) AUXILIARY CONTROL EQUIPMENT Notes: 1.

Mount the push button in a location that is accessible to restore the system from Emergency to Normal mode by qualified personnel. Run two-conductor wire from the back of the button to the Remote Restore terminal block. Wire may be twisted or non-twisted pair, 12-24 AWG not to exceed 300ft. DIP switches 5,6,& 7 must all be set to the ON position when using the EMRR. LOW VOLTAGE CONNECTIONS Remote Restore connector is wired to the optional PWACC EMRR using the V+ & V- terminals.

Category cable meeting the requirements of a category higher than Category 5 is permissible. For DMeXit installations, we recommend Category cable and the supplied Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) connectors.

Here are some additional notes abbreviated from the ANSI Standard. · Shields and drain wires exposed by the process of preparing the cable for termination should be insulated from accidental contact with earth ground, data +, data - and data common. · Under no circumstance should any cable conductor or shield be connected to earth ground · Direct termination of a permanently installed cable on a male RJ-45 should not be allowed. If using stranded twisted pair cables, you must use PWCON SPARE CSC3. See Pathway Accessories, Inserts and Spare Connectors table below for ordering information.
