p5 FNIP-12xPWM Manuel utilisateur

2 | Page
OVERVIEW
The FNIP-12xPWM is used for switching and dimming low voltage LED strips using
the constant voltage PWM method.
The outputs can be controlled via the local inputs and through the network using
TCP/IP commands or the built-in web interface.
The local inputs give the customer the ability of using the system even before a
central controller is installed or the network is built, offering stand-alone operation.
The home owner can decide later on what controller or system to use.
This also improves reliability since the operation of the outputs do not rely on any
other device. If network or programming errors should occur, the lights still remain
controllable.
The inputs can also be used as independent digital inputs for remote monitoring
various sensors, such as water leakage sensor or door contacts, or even an output
of a security system (armed/disarmed/in alarm).
The local inputs are usually connected to momentary wall switches and work
similarly to traditional light switches.
The inputs can also be used to recall pre-defined scenes. See the Scenes section
for more details.
The FNIP-12xPWM connects to the network via an RJ45 Ethernet connector.
The outputs can be used individually or in groups of three or four depending on
what types of LEDs are to be controlled. Low voltage single colour LEDs or halogens
are controlled by one output each. RGB LED strips take three outputs while RGBW
LED strips need four outputs. The possible grouping of the outputs:
Output 1,2,3 –individual outputs or R1,G1,B1
Output 4,5,6 –individual outputs or R2,G2,B2
Output 7,8,9 –individual outputs or R3,G3,B3
Output 10,11,12 –individual outputs or R4,G4,B4 or W1,W2,W3
where W1,W2,W3 are the white channels of RGBW LED strips connected to RGB
groups.

Wiring
An example wiring diagram where two RGB and a single colour LED strips are
controlled is shown in figure 3. In this example all the LED strips and the module
are powered by separate power supplies. You can use the same power supply if
you use same voltage LED strips and if it can supply enough power for all the
LEDs and the module.
Please note that if you use the same power supply to power the module
and the LEDs, the GND of the Power for the Main Circuit (terminal 42)
must be connected to one of the GND terminals on the output side (the
bottom of the module). If you use multiple power supplies, all of their
GNDs must be connected there too. Failing to do so may damage the
module. The bottom side GND terminals are connected together
internally.
Figure 3. Sample wiring diagram
Recommended wire types
Ethernet cable: Twisted pair, CAT5 or better.
Outputs: According to the loads attached to the outputs (current and voltage).
Please note that because of the low voltage, high currents are flowing
through the wires that drive the LED strips, so to avoid high voltage
drops and too much heat dissipating on the wires, make sure you use
the correct wire gauge.

Inputs: A pair of low or high voltage cables. The inputs use low voltage signals.
Power requirements
The module must be powered through terminals 42 and 43. by 10V - 36V DC
In case the local inputs are used the inputs must also be powered by 10V - 36V
DC across terminals 40-41.
Please make sure that the polarity is correct.
Ethernet Connection
Connect the module to the LAN via the RJ45 Ethernet socket.
Local Inputs
For each output, there is a local input to allow manual operation. If you do not
wish to use local inputs, this section may be skipped.

9 | Page
Connect dry contacts (pushbuttons, momentary switches, relay contacts, etc.)
across the appropriate input terminals and the input common terminal.
WARNING! Avoid supplying voltage on these terminals!
All input ports are galvanically isolated to protect the unit against unwanted effects
of ground loops, overvoltage or misconnections.
The galvanic isolation is only effective when a separate power supply is used for
powering the inputs on terminals 40, 41.
If you choose not to use the extra protection the isolated inputs offer, you can use
the same power to supply both the main circuit and the inputs. In that case simply
connect terminal 41 to terminal 43 and terminal 40 to terminal 42.
Three-way switches can be implemented by simply connecting multiple
momentary switches in parallel.
Status LED Indicators
In order to make installation and debugging easier, communication and channel
status are displayed via LEDs.
Input status LEDs
Each input has a dedicated status LED that illuminates solid green when the
corresponding input is activated.
MCU live LED
When on, indicates that the FNIP-12xPWM unit is running.
Input power LED
When on, indicates that the input power is present.
Output status LEDs
Each output has a dedicated status LED that illuminates solid red when the
corresponding output is activated.

Communication LEDs
Con LED - green
The Con LED is on when the module is connected to the Ethernet network.
Act LED - yellow
It indicates that communication via Ethernet is in progress.
St LED - red
It is illuminated while the boot loader is active and it is blinking during a firmware
upload procedure. This should only happen during hardware resets and in the
second phase of firmware updates.
Low Power LEDs
These LEDs turn on when the DC power drops below 6V.
