Product Description
Doug Fleenor Design PRE10-A2 10-Button 2 Gang DMX Controller with Master Buttons - White
The Preset 10 Architectural Two is a further development of our popular Preset 10 Architectural controller. The Preset 10 Architectural Two (PRE10A2) offers new features and different wiring options. The new features of the PRE10A2 include a grand master, pile on mode (input + preset), jumper selectable button modes (radio or push on/push off) and a two gang form factor that allows PRE10A2 to fit in all two gang back boxes. The PRE10A2 has separate input and output ports allowing merging incoming levels with the local preset. This cascading of inputs allows creation of systems where multiple PRE10A2 and live theatrical console can share control. Additionally systems can be created where multi-room control is required by a single dimming system.
The Preset 10 Architectural Two lighting control station capable of storing up to ten presets. These presets are recorded by capturing the output of a DMX512 console. Each preset can then be assigned a unique fade time, from 0 to 999 seconds. Presets are recalled by pressing one of the buttons.
Systems can be created by using one or more stations and a power supply. The solid aluminum faceplate is designed to install over a standard two gang electrical box. Connections to the Preset 10 Architectural Two are power (2 wires) and DMX512 (3 wires). Power for the Preset 10 can be supplied from a variety of sources, including a 10V class 2 “doorbell” transformer.
The Preset 10 Architectural Two system can work in conjunction with a lighting console, automatically switching between preset and console control or by combining the consoles input with the active preset. In switch over mode when the console generates DMX the Preset 10 Architectural Two goes off-line. The console then operates normally. Upon loss of DMX from the console, the Preset 10 Architectural Two either returns to its previous preset or holds the last look (jumper selectable). In combining mode the Preset 10 Architectural Two merges the levels from the console with the levels of the currently active preset.
The Preset 10 system also comes in a portable version (model PRE10-P) that acts as a backup station for any DMX512 lighting console or as a stand-alone DMX512 preset console.
