The Panalogic DM160 single channel and DM260 dual channel Digital Architectural Lighting Dimmers are high performance microprocessor controlled dimming systems. Each dimmer channel is capable of dimming loads of up to 25 amps. Smooth glitch-free, accurate fades are assured by the use of sophisticated proprietary computer algorithms and an interface which has been designed for immunity to interference. The dimmer may be controlled by an optional wall mount pushbutton panel and/or by an RS232 / RS485 serial data interface from any suitable host computer system. The Panalogic DM160 and DM260 are high reliability, "bullet proof" systems designed and manufactured in Australia.

FEATURES
