DFS3000
Glasson Electronics' best selling product, DFS3000 continues to advance with a greatly improved 13bit dimming system and a new super hi-intensity version
For an easy to use, reliable, high performance RGB or RGBW effect lighting product DFS3000 is the answer
DFS3000 can be wired as traditional festoon, pelmet or matrix configurations allowing easy integration into virtually any kind of effect lighting application
As with all Glasson Electronics products, DFS3000 is designed and manufactured at the company's factory in the UK
Details
Manufactured from robust UV resistant Acylic with a standard ES (E27) lamp base the LED unit comprises RGB or RGB + W LEDs with an advanced microcontroller based linear current control system to provide exceptional LED control
The combined power and data system allows up to 170 RGB or 120 RGBW units to be individually controlled on a common two conductor cable
Note that the cable does not need to be a single ‘festoon’ type connection. LEDs can be wired individually or in groups back to the power unit with common or individual feeds.
Basically providing the LEDs are wired in parallel and a given cable feed length does not exceed 100M the system will work!
The cable type is not critical however 6A 60V rating is required. There are three intensity versions. Std, Hi and SH
Main features
• 50mm diameter x 98mm long (low profile cover version 59mm long)
• Clear, smoked or white diffused cover options
• Available in three intensities
• RGB or RGBW options
• Super smooth fading with linear LED current control (not PWM)
• Easy installation - Fits standard E27 ES lamp holders
• Up to 170 LED units controlled from a single power unit
• Polarity insensitive
• Protection included to prevent failure of a single LED unit compromising the whole system
• Designed and manufactured in the UK
Power unit
RM200 and RM500 power units provide the DC supply and combined power and data to control lamps or LED units
The power units accept DMX data converting this to the special combined power and data format
Power units have DMX record capability for standalone operation
They can also be programmed using Glasson Electronics' show creation software
As with all Glasson Electronics products, power units are designed and manufactured in-house
• Protected from lamp wiring faults
• DMX data input
• DMX record/playback facility
• Universal 90/264VAC input
• Power consumption 260W (RM200) 600W (RM500) max
• Comprehensive self diagnostic system
• 100M max festoon cable length
• Size 246 x 200 x 75mm (RM200) 230 x 300 x 75mm (RM500)
• Weight 2.4Kg (RM200) 3.2Kg (RM500)
• 40C maximum operating temperature
Handheld programmer
A commissioning and maintenance tool, the hand programmer facilitates quick programming of an LED / Lamp holder units address
For DFS1000 and 3000 the LED unit is briefly attached to the hand programmer to set the address
For DFS200 the lamp holder is temporarily inserted into the lamp socket in place of the lamp
For Orbis, Praeclarus and DFS4000 a different version programs the LED unit address using a short range infra red link
The hand programmer can also read an LED units address and invoke an LED test
Programming typically takes 4 seconds
