Introduction

The iLight 24 channel DMX source

controller is designed to provide control

of any DMX512 controllable device. This

product is of particular use for controlling

DMX LED colour changing units and

entertainment devices.

Each channel can be assigned a

DMX channel from within the iLight

programming software. The SCD24

can be controlled like any other iLight

Source Controller using any of the iLight

user interfaces to activate scenes and

sequences.

Mounting

The unit is provided with four 6mm diameter ﬁxing holes for wall mounting.

The mounting holes can be accessed by undoing the four screws on the front cover and

removing it.

The unit should be installed in a dry ventilated location, where ambient temperature and

humidity are within the operating temperature of the unit.

The unit has ventilation slots on its sides to allow convection cooling and under no

circumstances should these be blocked.

Recommended minimum clearance around the unit is 100mm each side of the unit and 50mm

above and below the unit if trunking with a depth greater than 50mm is used.

Connecting Mains Supply

This unit requires a nominal 230V single phase supply (Live, Neutral and Earth) with 1A capability.

A separate isolator and secure mains earth are required.

All wiring should be completed in accordance with local wring regulations.

The unit is supplied with a knockout for mains cable entry. An appropriate cable gland should be

ﬁtted to the knockout hole provided to protect the mains cable from damage.

Ensure all mains connections are fully tightened and lock-washers used where supplied.

DMX Connections

The SCD24 has 24 channels

of DMX that can be

conﬁgured via

the iLight

programming software

Connections are made via the

4-way 2 part terminal block.

Connections are:

Network Termination

Network Connections

IMPORTANT NOTE: Connecting a mains potential cable to the iLight Network terminals is likley

to damage the unit and others connected, and invalidate warranty.

Termination On = Jumper across upper pins

Termination Off = Jumper across lower pins

IMPORTANT: Ensure jumper is in the off

position for all devices other than those at the

the end-of-line.

Applies 120Ω resistor to the iCAN network.

Required at each end of the network cable run

only.

Function Network Cable Colour

0V Black

CAN L White

Shield Silver

CAN H Blue

+12Vdc Red

Connections for the iCAN network are located on the CPU card at the bottom of the unit with

the cover removed.

There are two 5-way green connectors for the network. Either of

these may be used (as an in and an out) or a single used with the

network cable doubled-up to it.

Service Switches and LEDs

These switches and LEDs are located at the base of the unit.

The two service switches on the source controllers are used for the following:

• Entering Diagnostic Mode.

• Putting the Source Controller in

override mode.

• Sending a message to identify

the device on the network.

• Sending a message to identify

the device on the network.

The LEDs indicate the following:

• Normal operation:

Steady green LED blinking

1 x per second.

Red LED off.

• Message transmission and

receipt indicated by red LED

flashing for duration of data

transmission.

• Override status: Both LEDs

flashing together or just red

flashing and green off.

ICAN network error status will occur

when a Source Controller is not

connected to an iCAN network for

any reason. Once either connected

to a network of one or more other

devices which are powered the error

status will be removed. It is still

possible to enter Diagnostic mode

if a Source Controller is in iCAN

network error status.

Override Mode

Placing the unit into override mode

allows for testing of the Source

Controller outputs regardless of how

the unit is currently programmed. This is

useful for testing power to circuits prior

to the system being commissioned or

for fault ﬁnding where it can be used to

test if there is an issue with the Source

Controller output(s) should this be

suspected.

When the Source Controller is placed

into override mode it will no longer

respond to commands sent over the

iCAN network.

Override mode can also be used to

restore power to outputs if control is

lost or termporarly removed to allow

lighting to remain on until control is

restored.

NOTE: Override mode only affects the

outputs on the Source Controller on

which it is activated.

To exit diagnostic / override status

follow the steps shown. If power is

cycled to the Source Controller then this

will also take the unit out of override

mode and it will start up in the default

running status.
