Net-IT PS-600 Head-Feet Restrictions
The HEAD-FEET parameter is a method of accounting for the voltage drop in the
power/signal cable caused by the current drawn by each device.
To help understand this issue, think of it as water pressure (voltage) in a hose (cable)
where you have multiple water sprinkler heads (color changers). If the hose (cable) is
too long or you have too many sprinkler heads (color changers), the water pressure
(voltage) will be too low.
HEAD-FEET is defined as "the sum of cable lengths from each device to a single power
supply output".
Head-Feet Example:
The length of cable from the Net-IT PS-600 to:
1st Coloram: 100’
2nd Coloram: 120’
3rd Coloram: 140’
360 Head-Feet on one output connector
