Description

This is the premier module for controlling lighting functions within an aircraft cabin. The module offers twelve lighting channels, grouped in three control clusters, with (4) lighting channels per cluster. One channel controls one light. This allows individual lighting requirements to be set for three separate areas of the aircraft cabin interior with the use of only (1) SL-1369 module. Each channel has (1) 5A, Form-C relay to control on/off functions, and (1) PWM (Pulse Width Modulator) on each channel to control dimming functions. Ideally, the module would be placed in close proximity to the lights it is controlling, thus reducing wiring runs to the lights. The lighting functions of this module can be controlled from multiple, remote locations within the cabin interior. The module itself is very lightweight and compact, and can be easily installed within the tight confines of today’s corporate aircraft, with a minimum of cable hook-ups required to connect the module into the SmartLink-III™ wire bus.
