20、age. It is primarily intended for lighting control equipment (controllers and dimmers) although any equipment which might be controlled by a lighting controller (intelligent lighting, strobe lights, fog machines, etc.) could use this control method.Some 0 to 10 V controlled devices (such as dimmable

21、 fluorescent ballasts) require current-sink controllers. E1.3 controllers are current-source devices and cannot control these receivers without modification or additional interface components. This standard does not address electro-magnetic compatibility (EMC) issues, which might result from control

22、 line oscillations caused by poorly designed controllers or cabling practices.2 HistoryPrior to digital and analog multiplex control systems, most remote control of lighting dimmers was done using a wire-per-dimmer system. Each dimmer had a dedicated control wire (or pair of wires). The output volta

23、ge of the dimmer was proportional to the signal on the control wire. Some of these wire-per-dimmer systems required that the control voltage be the same frequency and in phase with the dimmers AC output. Some systems used high voltage control signals. Some systems used low voltage direct current con

24、trol signals.The safety and flexibility of the low voltage DC control system gradually made it the system of choice. Many different low voltage systems were used. Some common control signals were 0 to 10 V, 0 to 15 V, 0 to 24 V, 0 to 28 V. In most cases zero volts was considered “off.“ Negative cont

25、rol voltages were also common: 0 to -10 V, 0 to -15 V, 0 to -28 V. Again in most cases zero volts was off. Some control signals used a voltage other than zero for off; for example 2 to 7.6 V and 2 to 10.5 V. In these, the lower voltage was typically “off.“Over time the 0 to 10 V control system becam

26、e the most popular. As of the writing of this specification, 0 to 10 V control systems are popular not only in lighting but for motor control and industrial automation as well. Many digital to analog converters have a standard 0 to 10 V setting. The 0 to 10 V control system is easy to convert to per

27、centage (add a zero), is easy to implement using operational amplifiers and consumer circuits, is a low enough voltage to be safe and is a high enough voltage to avoid most noise problems.3 PurposeThe purpose of this specification is to document the now common 0 to 10 V direct current control system

28、 as typically used in lighting applications and provide specifications for new designs.4 ApplicabilityThis specification is intended for the use of: System specifiers who wish to insure that the equipment they specify meets an industry standard control system. Equipment manufacturers seeking to adop

29、t an industry standard control system for basic controller/receiver interfacing. Lighting technicians who wish to understand and troubleshoot analog control systems.Adoption of this standard is strictly voluntary. It is not intended as a replacement for existing protocols already in use, but as an a

30、ddition to existing protocols and a basis for future products. The goal is to broaden the installed base of controllers, dimmers and other equipment that can communicate with each other.ANSI E1.3 - 2001 (R2011), Entertainment Technology Lighting Control Systems 0 to 10 V Analog Control Specifiation

31、2011 PLASA North America CP/1997- 1003r115 Terminology and use5.1 GeneralThis specification does not require adherence to any particular level of performance. The guidelines presented here are intended to show typical uses of 0 to 10 V control.5.2 ZeroWhen a controller is sending a level of “zero“ i

32、t shall set its control voltage to within the levels defined as “zero” in section 6.1.1. When a dimmer, or other receiving device, has a “zero“ control signal (see section 6.2.1 for voltage limits) it shall be at its minimum state. In the case of motion control, the receiver shall position itself at

33、 one extreme. In the case of speed or rate control, the receiver shall set speed to minimum or stopped.This specification does not define the minimum level, position extreme, or minimum rate. These are performance criteria left up to the users and manufacturers. In the case of dimmers, minimum may b

34、e some idle voltage or may be completely off. In the case of motion control, “zero“ may be fully clockwise, fully counter-clockwise, fully up, or fully down. In the case of a rate control it may be minimum rate or completely stopped. In the case of audio volume it could be off or maximum attenuation

35、.Note that when a console or other transmitting device is powered down or disconnected, it does not send any voltage to the receivers. The “zero“ condition of a receiver shall always be in a state which is acceptable in a default/off situation. 5.3 FullWhen a controller is sending a level of “full“

36、it shall set its control voltage to within the levels defined as “full” in section 6.1.1. When a dimmer, or other receiving device, has a “full“ control signal (see section 6.2.1 for voltage limits) it shall be at its maximum state. In the case of motion control, the receiver should position itself

37、at the opposite extreme from “zero.“ A rate or speed control should go to its fastest speed.This specification does not define the maximum level, extreme, or rate. These are performance criteria left up to the users and manufacturers.5.4 ScaleThe 0 to 10 V control is intended to be linear (as oppose

38、d to logarithmic). It is generally intended that “zero“ be represented by about 0 volts, “full“ be represented by about 10 volts, and midway between “zero“ and “full“ be represented by about 5 volts. Since this specification does not require any specific performance between “zero“ and “full“ there i

39、s no guarantee that these voltages will be met.The response of the receiving device to control input shall be specified in the manufacturers literature. This documentation can be in the form of a table, graph, or other appropriate format.6 Electrical specifications6.1 Transmitter specifications6.1.1

40、 Amplitude (Transmitter)The output of the controller shall be a steady DC. When the control level is constant, the output shall not change by more than +/- 20 mV. The output is intended to vary between 0 and 10 volts. Zero volts shall represent the full off condition and ten volts shall represent th

41、e full on condition. The output voltage shall never be less than -0.2 volts nor more than +12.0 volts with respect to signal common.To allow for variations in manufacturing tolerances the minimum and maximum control voltages may vary as shown in the table below:ANSI E1.3 - 2001 (R2011), Entertainmen

43、olts 12.0 voltsIf the controller is capable of varying the maximum or minimum output voltage, then the manufacturers specifications shall state the range of adjustment. Controllers shall be shipped adjusted for 0 to 10 V operation in accordance with this standard. Controllers not adjusted for 0 to 1

44、0 V operation in accordance with this standard shall not be marked “E1.3, 0 to 10 V Analog Control Specification.“ Any printing on the console referring to the E1.3 specification shall be covered with a label that shows the adjusted voltage range. For example:“Outputs adjusted for 0 to 15 volt opera

45、tion“6.1.2 Current source capacity and output impedance (Transmitter)Controllers or output devices should have a low output impedance to minimize loading effects. Passive controllers, with unbuffered outputs, shall use potentiometers with a resistance value of 10K ohms or less (which yields an outpu

46、t impedance of 2.5K ohms or less). Active controllers with buffered outputs shall have a source impedance of 100 ohms or less and be capable of continuously sourcing at least 2.0 milliamperes without dropping below 10 V. Controllers or output devices shall have a sinking impedance greater than 50K o

47、hms, even when power is removed.The more current source capacity a controller has the more receivers it can drive. (More is better). The manufacturers specifications shall state the output capability as both the maximum source current and the lowest load impedance at which an output of 10.0 volts ca

48、n be maintained.6.1.3 Diode protectionControllers and output devices shall be provided with a blocking diode (or equivalent circuit) such that each output presents an open circuit (50K ohms or more) to any source of voltage more positive than itself. The operation of the product shall be unaffected

49、by the presence of such a more positive voltage. This diode or equivalent circuit shall be capable of blocking voltages of +30 D.C. volts or greater.The blocking diodes allow multiple controllers or output devices to be paralleled to control the same dimmers or receiving devices. Whichever controller has the higher control voltage has control of that channel. This method of control is commonly referred to as “highest takes precedence“ or “pile-on.“6.2 Receiver specifications6.2.1 Amplitude (Receiver)The dimmer or other receiving device shall be at
