Preparing the PRO-DP8 and Dimmer Control Cards
Assigning Pack numbers on the dimmer control cards
Each dimmer card in the system must have its own unique PROlink device number, or Pack
number. The Pack number is assigned via the PROLink DIP switch (SW2) on the dimmer control
cards:
1. Turn Off the breaker on the dimmer control card.
2. Set the Pack number assignment on the individual dimmer control card via the PROlink
Address DIP switch (SW2).
The Pack number is determined by the value of all the switch position settings. The Pack
number assignment range is 1-10. The lighting system will not work if you assign Pack
numbers outside of this range.
The following table shows the PROlink DIP switch positions and their values:
Set the first enclosure to a Pack value 1 by switching the PROlink DIP switch 1 to On and the
second enclosure to either a Pack value of 2 (by switching DIP switch 2 to On), or a Pack value
of 3 (by switching the DIP switches 1 and 2 to On) for a two-enclosure system.
3. Turn the PRO-DP8 face down and verify that all DIP switches are in the Off position (factory
default).
4. Connect a 4-pin PROlink cable to the PROlink bus connector to the rear panel of the
PRO-DP8.
5. Power On the dimmer control card.
6. Press the Reset button on the dimmer control card.
7. Verify the PRO-DP8 is communicating with the dimmer control card by watching the
sequential lighting of each LED on the front panel of the PRO-DP8, and the one-blink action of
the PROlink LED (rear panel).
Assigning Pack numbers (1-3) on the panel
Once each dimmer Pack has a unique device number, you must assign the Packs to the desired
pushbuttons on the PRO-DP8 panel:
1. Note the Pack value assigned on the dimmer control card (see previous steps).
2. Unplug the 4-pin PROlink cable from the rear bus connector of the PRO-DP8.
