be assigned to any one of four Rooms in the configuration. Sensor+ systems can also have the

Group play back a Preset in case of data loss.

Sensor+ Connect and WYSILink for Feedback

Sensor+ Connect duplicates the functions of the CEM+ module on a PC or Emphasis

Server on the ETCNet2 network. The Web browser interface allows you to monitor rack

activity, reconfigure dimmer curves, record and activate presets, load and backup

configurations, and many other features.

Access to the CEM+ and Sensor+ Connect configuration features is protected by specific

user levels and passwords to limit system-altering features to selected personnel, while

allowing basic operational functions to a wider range of users.

Note:

Sensor+ Connect and Message logging are available on Emphasis Servers as a base

functionality.

Advanced Features

Sensor+ Advanced Features (AF) racks provide additional reporting features that help you

to quickly learn the status of your dimming system and diagnose problems. AF dimmer

modules indicate the presence of data and the relative output of power with LED indicators

on the modules themselves. Much more information can be displayed on the CEM+

module’s integral LCD display, a PC on the network running Sensor+ Connect in a Web

browser or WYSIWYG with the WYSILink upgrade.

Advanced Features include the ability to record and monitor individual dimmer loads,

dimmer removed, SCR fail, breaker trip and several other monitoring tools. Constant

comparison of actual dimmer loads against the recorded value lets the system signal you

when a load value changes. The change usually indicates a lamp has burned out or failed,

allowing you to make an immediate replacement.

Dimmer Doubling™ (60Hz systems only)

ETC’s dimmer doubler technology allows you to double the number of controllable circuits

in your system without adding dimmer modules or running additional cable. The key to this

feature is the dimmer doubler two-fer.

The dimmer doubler two-fer is installed between a Sensor dimmer module and two ETC

Source Four 77 volt fixtures. It splits the output of a single dimmer into two, separately-

controlled outputs. You can then use an ETC control console to independently control the

output of the two fixtures.

Note:

For more information on using dimmer doubler two-fers, see the Dimmer Doubler User

Manual. For more information configuring your system for use with Dimmer Doubler two-

fers, see the CEM+ Configuration Manual.
