An Industrial Quality PWM and LED monitoring module

MaNima Pollux

30kHz Manual

Sensor Inputs

Measurements are possible with

multiple sensor inputs. These readings

can then be used for monitoring and

conditions.

Ethernet switch

The MaNima Pollux doubles as an

ethernet switch. The two ethernet ports

on the Pollux are of the same network.

Digital/Potential inputs

There are 2 Digital/Potential inputs

available on the MaNima Pollux. These

can be used as triggers for actions.

PWM output

There are 8 PWM outputs available on the

MaNima Pollux. These can be used to

controller analogue LEDs or devices. PWM

signal frequency is set at 30kHz

Redundant setup

If the Pollux is used in an important

installation that can’t have malfunctions, it

is possible to have a 2nd power source for

the Pollux to ensure system reliability.

Monitoring and the cloud

The Pollux has been made with monitoring

in mind. It is also possible to send this data

to a cloud database.

Custom Software

The MaNima Pollux can be customized

to communicate with your specific

system. Contact MaNima Technologies

for more information.

MaNima Module

Easy-to-use GUI

The settings of the Pollux can easily be

configured with the MaNima

Configurator.

Increased reliability and protection

The MaNima Pollux is able to measure

the Current and Voltage going through

the PWM outputs.

First of all, thank you for using the MaNima Pollux Monitoring and PWM Module!

The MaNima Pollux Monitoring and PWM Module is an extension for the MaNima Magnus or Ignis

and cannot operate without these. The MaNima Pollux is used for receiving sensor data (NTC, PTC,

LDR etc) and sending this data to other MaNima products that can use that info to perform certain

actions.

This manual has been made for the MaNima Pollux. It is important that anyone, who has to work

with the MaNima Pollux, has read this manual.

In this chapter there will be everything you need to know about The MaNima Configurator

regarding the MaNima Pollux.

The MaNima Configurator

The MC (MaNima Configurator) is the program used by the operator to configure the MaNima

Pollux. The MC must be installed on a computer on the same network where the MaNima Pollux

is connected to. To work with the MC it is recommended to first install and connect the MaNima

Pollux to the network, since most (if not all) options won’t be available without a connection

between the computer and the MaNima Pollux.

The MaNima Configurator can be downloaded here:

Downloads | MaNima Technologies (manima-technologies.com)

The MC is opened by adding the “GUI” file to the computer. In this file the user will find all of the

files needed to use this program. You can place the “GUI” in any file, but for this manual, the file

will be placed in the desktop.

The computer on which the MC will be installed on, needs the newest version of Java. Java can

be downloaded on: https://www.java.com/en/

-Open the file with the left mouse button and double click on “ManimaSetupTool”

(Highlighted blue on the image below)

-To open the MC directly from your desktop, you can create a shortcut using the right

mouse button on the “ManimaSetupTool” file. The “ManimaSetupTool” can’t be placed

outside the file, if done so, the MC will have an error.

The Scanner is the tab used to search for different MaNima LED Interfaces. Follow the

instructions below to configure your own device.

Make sure your computer and MaNima Pollux are connected to the same Ethernet/Wi-Fi

network! The Interface should be in the scanner no matter what IP-adress it has.

Currently editing: ‘name’ (‘IP-address’) = This shows which device is currently being edited.

Device name = Device name is the name given to a device. The user will know which device is which. You

can change the device name in the ‘’settings’’ tab

IP Address = The IP-address is the number given to a device. Using this address the user will know which

device is which. It is possible that some Interfaces have the same IP address, make sure this is not the case!

MAC = The MAC address is the name given to the MaNima LED Interface by the manufacturer. MAC

addresses are, unlike IP addresses, never identical to each other.

Version = This shows the version of the used hardware in the MaNima LED Interface.

Software Version = This shows the software version of the connected MaNima LED Interface.

Identify = If identify is switched on you can see which LED is controlled by that device, as they will be

performing an RGB(W) test cycle.

= This icon shows which Interface is the master of a group that is playing a scene.

= This icon shows that the Interface has extensions connected. Press the symbol to see which.

= Press this button to connect or disconnect an extension.

To connect to The MaNima Pollux, Left click on the Interface. If the connection is successful,

there should be “Currently editing: (IP-address)” instead of “Currently editing: None”.

Failure to Connect

If the MC is unable to find the MaNima Pollux, there are multiple things that may have gone wrong.

So, make sure the following are correct:

1. The Connected MaNima Pollux is connected to the same network as the computer.

2. The network has a DHCP.

3. The IP-address is in the IP-address range of The MC.

4. The MaNima Pollux is powered or has the correct voltage.

Error Warning

The error warning is shown when the

Interface has encountered a problem. In the

example given here, the Interface has

encountered a problem where there are

too many universes in a port. This can be

fixed by lowering the FPS in the live playing

software.

When such an error occurs, follow the

instructions written in the error message.
