The Coloram II System
The Coloram II System consists of one or more Color Changers or other components and a remote Power Supply. The DMX512 control signal from the lighting board is connected to the Power Supply and can continue on to more Coloram II Power Supplies or other DMX- controlled devices. The Power Supply sends both power and control signal on a single cable eliminating the need for a separate power cable for each Color Changer.
The Coloram II System also allows you to control the Color Changer fan speed via one or multiple DMX channels on the lighting console.
The Coloram II System is equipped with the Intelligent Diagnostic System (IDS). Status information is sent from each of the Coloram Color Changers to the Coloram Power Supply. The Power Supply in turn transmits the information along pins 4 and 5 of the DMX cable to The Watchdog Status Monitor. The Watchdog then displays Color Changer status information at your lighting console position.
Caution: The Coloram II System is not compatible with The Forerunner System. Do not connect Coloram Color Changers to Forerunner Power Supplies, or Forerunner Color Changers to Coloram Power Supplies.
Damage from such action will not be covered by the Coloram or
Forerunner warranties.
