ETC DMX Emergency Bypass Controller<\/strong>
\nPeace of mind for DMX-based control.\u00a0The use of LED fixtures in entertainment-lighting venues has extended from the stage into the house. DMX-controlled LED houselights are becoming increasingly popular, yet few manufacturers provide sufficient safeguards for emergency lighting situations with those fixtures. ETC’s compact DMX Emergency Bypass Controllers make safety a priority for DMX-based lighting in venues like theaters, opera houses, concert halls and houses of worship.<\/p>\n

The DMX Emergency Bypass Controllers allow DMX512-controlled lights to operate as normal or emergency fixtures, by taking control of a single universe of DMX512 when triggered by an external UL924 device.<\/p>\n

Both single-channel (DEBC-1) and six-channel (DEBC-6) controllers are available. Both controllers are CE compliant and UL924 listed as a control bypass device and can work with other emergency-lighting products, like ETC’s Emergency Bypass Detection Kit (EBDK). Both are important parts of an emergency lighting plan that must include a complete UL1008 emergency power transfer system.<\/p>\n

That system – such as an ETC Branch Circuit Emergency Lighting Transfer Switch (SC1008) or Emergency Lighting Transfer System (ELTS2) – is responsible for actually transferring from normal to emergency power when there’s a loss of utility power or other life-safety condition. The DMX Emergency Bypass Controller can also operate as part of a closed-loop fire-alarm system.<\/p>\n
