There are four models available in the TEKO family range, from the 12 channel 10A version through to the 3 channel 63A model. With the ability to control any of your inductive or reactive loads and at a 100% duty cycle, TEKO can drive a simple 1w lamp through to a massive 15kW fixture per channel, effortlessly.
TEKO uses LSC's proven PTFD output circuitry to ensure smooth control of reactive and inductive loads such as birdies, pin spots, mirror ball motors and other difficult loads.
The TEKO can also connect to the LSC ePlates remote button and fader controllers to allow activation and control of up to 80 internal memories. This gives a simple method of full control for situations where a lighting console is not desired, such as trade-show booths, shop window displays and corporate presentations
Along with the option to include LSC Lighting’s Houston monitoring software and ePlates to externally recall recorded memories, TEKO will give the user complete control of their dimming system.
Available in 3, 6 or 12 channel models with a wide choice of output connector configurations and channel output current capacity, the TEKO is the ideal choice to ensure your show goes to plan.
TEKO Features
A number of key criteria make the TEKO the clear choice of lighting professionals.
- 3, 6 and 12-channel versions.
- 12 x 10A, 6 x 25A and 3 x 63A models all with 100% duty cycle..
- 3RU high - designed for easy 19" rack installation.
- LCD Touch screen with backlight.
- Adjustable Min and Max levels per channel.
- Full 512 channel softpatch.
- 80 recordable memories with individual fade times.
- A unique extruded aluminium heatsink is used as a base to mount all the heat generating components which is then fan cooled, allowing for very efficient operation at high load conditions. The fan is temperature controlled so it is only on when it is required.
- The use of high quality inductors and filtering circuits, minimising the possible interference to other electronic equipment by reducing the harmonic waves produced by phase angled control of the power mains.
- The electronics will remember any stored scene or dimmer curve set up that will be reactivated once power has been restored.
- Multiple output connector types, including 3-pin Australian, 19-pin Socapex, 16-pole Harting, 10-pole Harting, Schuko 16 Amp and its variants.
- Current Cotrol Technology (CCT) - intelligent control of in-rush currents so that cold filaments don't trip breakers.
- Ability to set individual dimmer curve settings for each channel.
Six curves are available: S Law, Square Law, Cube Law, Quad Law, 120 Volt and a Non-Dim curve. The Non-Dim curve will switch a particular channel to full or completely off based on the DMX512 level received.
- Power input cable supplied - 5 conductor 6mm2, black rubber insulated.
Note: Australian customers supplied with 5-pin Power connector fitted to the tail.
- Future software improvements can be loaded into the dimmers by the codeLINK option;
a Windows based program that allows the uploading of Software upgrades from a PC style computer. Downloads can be obtained from e-mail or LSC’s Website, and then transferred into TEKO via a cable link to the dimmer.
- Houston software package available for remote configuration storage and retrieval for Square One rig restoration.
- Designed and manufactured in Australia.
- CE and Ctick approved.
