Scenarios for DMX System

In a DMX system, the Master Controller sends commands to control the colors, or values, of RGB/RGBW components. The Sub-Controller manages a series of RGB/RGBW components that respond to a single command. There can be multiple Sub-Controllers connected to a Master Controller.

The Allanson ACL-SC-DMX Sub-Controller is UL approved, compatible with RGB and RGBW modules. The ACL-SC-DMX also has an IP65 ingress protection rating, making it ideal for a wide range of lighting applications.

When additional RGB/RGBW components need to be connected to a Sub-Controller, the Allanson ACL-PR-4CH-5A Power Repeater can be used.

The ACL-PR-4CH-5A duplicates and boosts the RGB/RGBW signal, allowing more module series to be connected to the same Sub-Controller. The new Power Repeater is also UL approved and IP65 rated.

DMX System Scenario (Different commands given to multiple groups of LEDs)

1. Cat 5/6 Cable
   (1-2 ft recommended, distance as short as possible)
2. Adapter ea RJ45
   (ACL-SIG-AD)
3. Adapter ea RJ45
4. Hlokomela: Add terminator (orange-yellow) to the last sub-controller. At a maximum of 2000ft from the first to last sub-controller
5. Sub-controller
   (ACL-SC-DMX)
6. PHEPELO EA MOTLAKASE
7. 5 wire 18 GA Cable
8. Pheta Matla
   (ACL-PR-4CH-5A)
9. RGBW modules / RGB tubings
10. capped wire
11. RGBW module
12. RGB Rigid/Flexible Border Tubing

Scenarios for SPI System

In the SPI system, a few new components can be used to boost signal strength and extend the range to max 1000ft with cat5e or cat6 cable.

SPI range extender (RX/TX) is a single channel which controls one group of addressable modules.

SPI splitter splits signal from one channel into multiple signals. The same command is being copies and sent to receivers.

4X SPI range extender has 4 channels that controls max 4 different groups of addressable modules in different commands. it also has booster function that can transmit signal over a long distance.

SPI system – Scenario #1

The Master Controller can be connected directly to modules if the distance is shorter than 30 ft, an adaptor is required.

1. Cat 5/6 Cable
   (max. 30 ft)
2. Adapter ea RJ45
   (ACL-SIG-AD)
3. RGB Addressable Modules
4. PHEPELO EA MOTLAKASE

SPI system – Scenario #2

SPI range extenders (transmitter and receiver) are being used as a pair when addressable modules are more than 30ft away.
Single channel only ( one group of modules).

1. Cat 5/6 Cable
   (1-2 ft recommended, distance as short as possible)
2. Adapter ea RJ45
   (ACL-SIG-AD)
3. Adapter ea RJ45
4. Keep Minimum Distance
5. SPI Range Extender Transmitter
   (ACL-SPI-EXT-Tx)
6. SPI Range Extender Transmitter
7. Cat 5/6 Cable
   (Max. 1000ft)
8. PHEPELO EA MOTLAKASE
9. SPI Range Extender Receiver
10. SPI Range Extender Receiver
    (ACL-SPI-EXT-Rx)
11. RGB Addressable Modules

SPI system – Scenario #3

SPI Splitter is being when sending the same command to several groups of RGB addressable modules.

1. Cat 5/6 Cable
   (1-2 ft recommended, distance as short as possible)
2. Adapter ea RJ45
   (ACL-SIG-AD)
3. Adapter ea RJ45
4. Keep minimum distance
5. SPI Splitter
6. SPI Splitter

9. SPI Range Extender Receiver
   (ACL-SPI-EXT-Rx)
10. Range Extender Receiver
11. RGB Addressable Modules

SPI system – Scenario #4

4x SPI Range Extender is being used for controlling various group of to several groups of RGB addressable modules that listen to different commands.

1. S1 ho ea ho S10
   (use 4 ports max.)
2. Cat 5/6 Cable
   (1-2 ft recommended, distance as short as possible)
