DFS1000 Lighting System
Manufactured in the UK, DFS1000 single colour LED lamps continue to be one of the most successful products. Featuring strong acrylic diffusers, the system is ideal for theatrical and events applications as well as permanent installations. Using Glasson Electronics combined power and data system, up to 200 DFS1000 lamps are powered and individually controllable from a single VP or IP series driver. All on a single two conductor cable.
The lamps employ a standard E27 lamp base (B22 version available) so can be used with any standard E27 lamp holders. The system is polarity insensitive so wiring could not be simpler.
DFS1000 is available in three intensity levels, Std, Hi and Super Hi (SH). All versions operate at voltages lower than the SELV limit. All Glasson Electronics LED products employ linear current control as opposed to PWM. This provides extremely smooth diming even at low intensities. Three diffusers are available as detailed below. Each diffuser type can be offered in white, clear or smoked.

Main Features of the DFS1000 Lighting System
- IP66 rating for long term outdoor environmental protection.
- Polarity insensitive – connects to the cable either way around.
- Linear current control (not PWM) for excellent for excellent flicker free colours when viewed with a video camera.
- Excellent step free smooth dimming.
- Each lamp has a unique address which is user programmed using the hand programmer. The address can be reprogrammed thousands of times.
- Internal fuse resistor to prevent a single LED unit failure compromising the whole system.
- Standard ES E27 lamp fitting
- Strong shatterproof moulding.

Operation
A system is comprised of a VP or IP series mains driver. These accept universal mains supply and output a DC voltage with the combined power and data signal modulated on the supply. Up to 200 DFS1000 lamps all wire in parallel from the driver output. Lamps can be wired in strings or can be individually wired and connect back to the power unit outputs using terminals or splitters. Prior to fitting into the installation, each DFS1000 lamp is assigned a number using the hand programmer. The number makes a given lamp unique on the system. Note that multiple lamps can be assigned the same number and will then operate from the same DMX Channel. Once installation is complete, each lamp will respond to the assigned DMX channels.
