It operates on a TN-S 3x230V/400VAC power supply and complies with Cat0 Stop function mode (EN60204-32) for high safety standards. Outputs are delivered via 4x or 8x CEE16/4P connectors. Output protection uses 3P C16A breakers for each 4-motor group. The controller features 7-pole XLR Link I/O for system linking and a 4-pole XLR for an External E-Stop signal, making it a robust and safety-conscious solution for rigging applications.
