The Pharos CCD (Constant Current Driver) and the Pharos CVD (Constant Voltage Drivers) are both DMX LED drivers with manual/RDM addressing and test modes for luminaires and other devices.

The Pharos control solution provides a host of integrated interfaces to support even the most complex project. However, installers typically require many third party devices to complete a system. Pharos offers a range of DMX LED drivers to extend the reach of our unified and reliable power and data infrastructure.

Both constant current and constant voltage fixtures can be supported by the relevant driver. Each unit provides 6 channels that are individually DMX controlled.

Both drivers are provided in a rugged DIN rail enclosure with install-friendly connectors. They support RDM for configuring the DMX start address, updating firmware and RDM locate. The start address may be set manually using the hex wheel, which also provides access to test modes. The DMX input is opto-isolated and a through connection is provided for simple daisy-chaining.

Constant Current

Constant Current fixtures are supported by the Pharos CCD, which is available in three current levels. The Pharos CCD is a 6 channel DMX controlled LED driver and multiple LEDs may be connected in series to each channel. The power supply power rating must be sufficient for the total power of the connected LEDs. For maximum efficiency, the total LED forward voltage per channel should be approximately equal to the power supply voltage.

Constant Voltage

Constant Voltage fixtures are supported by the Pharos CVD. The Pharos CVD is a 6 channel DMX controlled LED driver and multiple LEDs may be connected in parallel to each channel. The power supply voltage must match the voltage rating of the LEDs and the power supply power rating must be sufficient for the total power of the connected LEDs.

Test Modes

Controlled by the hex wheel, test modes are available that will turn on each individual channel at 25% or all channels at 25%. DMX control data is ignored while in a test mode.
