Andrewbrad Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I have recently picked up an Eltec DRE6-2 Dimmer Board and I need a circuit for controlling it. I assume that this will need just a simple potentiometer circuit as it appears to have a control voltage output of around 20v. Am I correct and can someone point me to the circuit I need to build? I am very happy to provide more info. if needed. Many thanks Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an Eltec dimmer pack - called 2000, I think - but it just has +10V control, although originally on a strange socket, which I changed to a standard 8-pin DIN. What makes you think it is 20V?

Brian Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 It's not unusual for analogue dimmers to give out something around that figure as a LV supply for an external desk. The desk will need to derive it's own 10V reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul TC Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 and can someone point me to the circuit I need to build?. The following is a simple controller assuming it is analogue control 0 -> +10V and you have +20V on the dimmer pack Lighting Control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
