Twenty-four PWM channels at 3 amps each \u2014 eight RGB fittings at three channels apiece, or 24 single-channel outputs \u2014 off one box and one DMX address run. The supply auto-ranges across DC5-24V, which makes it the widest power band in the decoder family: 360 watts at 5V, 860 at 12V, 1,720 at 24V. The DMX512\/1990 line lands on XLR-3R or the terminal block, the 4096-level decode keeps the fades smooth, and the ten built-in patterns run at 8 speeds where no desk is driving. The body is a compact L125\u00d7W52\u00d7H40mm at 320g, sitting with the fittings it drives.<\/p>\n<h2>Twenty-four channels at 3 amps<\/h2>\n<p>The decoder carries 24 constant-voltage PWM channels at 3 amps per channel \u2014 up to 72 amps across the box, which is where the power figures come from: 360 watts at 5V, 860 at 12V, 1,720 at 24V. The channel count is what makes it the multi-zone unit: eight RGB fittings take three channels each, eight dual-white fittings take two each with channels to spare, and the single-colour runs take one channel per circuit. The zones decode off twenty-four consecutive DMX addresses, and each channel runs at the voltage the supply delivers.<\/p>\n<h2>4096 grey levels<\/h2>\n<p>The channels decode at 4096 grey levels \u2014 12-bit resolution. An 8-bit decoder has 256 steps, and the first few of those are visibly chunky when the LEDs dim down; with 4096 steps the same fade moves in increments the eye reads as continuous. Across the eight-zone builds the slow evening shifts hold their line on every zone at once, and the camera-visible installs do not step.<\/p>\n<h2>XLR-3R and the terminal block<\/h2>\n<p>The DMX512\/1990 line lands two ways: the XLR-3R for the stage and event cabling, and the terminal block for the panels and cabinets where the line arrives on stripped conductors. The daisy-chain continues out of whichever connection the run arrived on, decoder to decoder across the zones. The twenty-four channels take twenty-four consecutive DMX addresses, and the addressing is set at the unit.<\/p>\n<h2>Working envelope<\/h2>\n<p>Working temperature spans -20\u00b0C to +55\u00b0C, which covers the plant rooms, the ceiling voids and the flight cases the installs travel through. The body is L125\u00d7W52\u00d7H40mm at 320g \u2014 a compact mid-size box, larger than the slim strips and smaller than the big CV units, with the terminals across its face. It sits with the fittings it drives, in the dry, close to the strips it runs.<\/p>\n<h2>O\u00f9 est-il utilis\u00e9 ?<\/h2>\n<p>The decoder earns its place on the multi-zone builds: the hotel frontage where eight zones of RGB run off one box, the restaurant where the coves, the bar and the alcoves share a single decoder, the retail floor where the shelving and the window schemes decode together. Wherever the install needs more channels than a four- or five-channel decoder carries \u2014 but not the 24- and 32-channel rail units \u2014 this is the set.<\/p>\n<h2>Ten patterns, 8 speeds<\/h2>\n<p>The decoder carries ten built-in patterns at 8 adjustable speeds \u2014 the self-changing programs that hold a look where no desk is running. The shopfront and the unattended installs run their own show off the decoder, and the speed setting tunes the pace of the shift. When the desk arrives, the same unit runs slave under the DMX512\/1990 line and the patterns stand down.<\/p>\n<h2>Planning the install<\/h2>\n<p>Work the load per decoder against the strips: the 3-amp rating per channel and the power band that follows the voltage \u2014 360 watts at 5V, 860 at 12V, 1,720 at 24V. Leave headroom below the per-channel rating rather than loading to it. Size the PSU for the connected load plus margin, land the DMX in and out on the connection the run uses, and give the decoder its start address \u2014 the zones take consecutive channels from there. The daisy-chain carries the line to the next decoder on the install.<\/p>\n<h2>Choosing the decoder in the range<\/h2>\n<p>The DMX decoder family splits by body, channel count and output type. The CD202 is this 24-channel CV multi-zone set on DC5-24V. The CD269 series carries the 24- and 32-channel sets on the DIN rail, and the CD201 is the 32-channel RDM decoder. The slim bodies run the smaller sets \u2014 the CD204 single channel at 10 amps, the CD205 two channels at 8, the CD206 three-channel RGB, the CD207 the RGBW with the 9-amp white channel, and the CD208 the RDM decoder with the 16-bit grey scale. The CD206-4 and CD209 are the standalone stage bodies with XLR-3 and RJ45, the CD203 is the large shutter-capable box, the CD23 is the constant-current set for the bare 1-watt LEDs, and the CD250 is the IP67 outdoor unit.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The FEL-CD202 is the 24-channel DMX decoder for the multi-zone strip installs: 24 constant-voltage PWM channels at 3 amps each \u2014 eight RGB fittings at three channels apiece, or 24 single-channel outputs \u2014 taking DC5-24V and carrying 360 watts at 5V, 860 at 12V or 1,720 at 24V.
