The DSI4-PCB is a DMX *Optical Input Splitter (distributor, buffer, amplifier, or booster) PCB with 1 input and 4 outputs and optical isolation on the input offering potentially higher voltage protection.
For added protection, the chipset upgrade option replaces the output chips with a **TVS IC offering higher voltage protection on each output of the splitter.
*NOTE – In order to optically isolate the input and offer protection, the DSI-4 requires a 25mA input line load which is ½ of a DMX 512 daisy chain load. It is recommended this unit be used directly out of the lighting board or DMX generating device. Because of this load the input does not conform to the DMX 512 specifications but should work with most systems.
FEATURES INCLUDE:
- Design your own 1 in X 4 out splitter with 3 or 5 pin XLR connectors or both
- Compatible with all ELM Video Technology’s DMX512 PCB’s
- Gang two or more PCB’s together in a chassis for multiple outputs of 7 or more (Assembly Example jgp)
- Replaceable Standard 5 x 20mm Fuse
- Optional Socketed chips (IC’s) for easy replacement
- Engineered with quality parts and a reliable and simple design
- ‘Active’ LED illuminates indicating DMX signal is present, Power LED for 5VDC.
DSI-4 PCB INCLUDES:
- Assembled DSI-4 PCB (Printed Circuit Board) Assembly with (4) .375″ standoffs and screws
**TVS – Transient Voltage Suppression
Also Note – the 4 outputs are separately driven and electronically isolated, not “Transient Voltage Suppressed” isolated from each other unless the CHIPSET UPGRADE is selected.
