2 General device description
Lighting applications are heterogenous by nature. e:cue interfaces serve to
integrate many networks, protocols and third party products into e:cue
solutions. They also aid in applying special control functions for fixtures,
they integrate analog or mechanical signaling into the digital world and offer
bridging functions. e:cue interfaces are the links to bring together the many
techniques and technologies of lighting control.
e:cue Nodes are a system of interfaces and provide various connection
types like DMX/RDM, DALI, digital inputs and outputs etc
The e:cue Bridge8 is an Art-Net / sACN to DMX interface. It comes with 8 x
DMX universes over screw terminal plugs. Switch between two input
sources on the fly. The e:cue Bridge8 makes it possible to run up to 4096
DMX channels (= 1360 RGB pixels, 170 Pxl/Univ.) over Ethernet. The
e:cue Bridge8 supports up to 32 sACN / Art-Net universes.
With an extended operating temperature of -40 ... 70°C (max 1 hour/day;
continuous operation at max. 60 °C) the e:cue Bridge8 is suited for projects
in tough outdoor environments. In addition to embedded temperature and
humidity sensors, a backup on data loss and test modes add to the
features of the Node.
The Node is powered by an external power supply or via Power-over-
Ethernet. It is easily mounted on standard 35 mm DIN rails, or with a key
hole in the housing base on walls or on any stable vertical surface.
e:cue Noes are not hot-pluggable.
