PRG Series 400 Power & Data Distribution System

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THIS CLASS:

THIS COURSE REQUIRES PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF NETWORKING AND CONTROL SYSTEM PROTOCOLS SUCH AS ART-NET, sACN, DMX and others.

This class is a comprehensive course covering PRG’s Series 400 Power and Data Distribution System.

The PRG Series 400® Power and Data Distribution System combines power, DMX, and Ethernet data through a single custom-designed trunk cable.

Ethernet cable standards call for a maximum working length over copper of 300 feet, but the PRG Series 400 custom trunk cable extends the working length to 500 feet.

The data system includes Ethernet switches with the ability to route any DMX universe to any DMX output connector in the system, along with complete electrical isolation. As a result, lighting systems can better accommodate the growing need for data and use less cable, and technicians can re-route signals from the user menus without making physical changes to the system.

The system provides real-time diagnostics, so technicians spend less time troubleshooting.  

Topics covered include:

• Introduction to PRG Series 400 system/hardware overview (supports up to 72 1.2kw devices, single, dual, and 3 phase outputs, 400-amp cam-loks in & out, 120V and 208V output, signal routing control/display)
• Theory of Operation and System Set Up (Configuring Inputs/Outputs) Understanding Status LED’s

• DMX connections 3 ways (front modules, ethernet switch, FOH box)

• Different Menus (System, DMX Monitor, Networking,Info)

• Testing System (Ethernet, Trunk Cable)

• How to connect and use S400 Tools (Display & System Monitor, DMX Monitor, System Config Manager, Offline)
