The Obsidian RP2 is an intelligent 2-Way DMX Power Relay designed to enhance the reliability and efficiency of lighting systems in professional environments. Finished in a sophisticated dark gray, this compact device is engineered to protect fixtures from damage, reduce power consumption, and minimize the overall wear and tear on lighting equipment. With its advanced features, the RP2 serves as an essential tool for any lighting technician or designer.
At the heart of the RP2 are two independent DMX relay circuits, each controlled by high-current dual-pole relays that ensure complete removal of power from the circuit. This design is vital for preventing damage to connected fixtures and promoting the longevity of your lighting setup. The device supports a variety of power systems, including 208V and Delta power configurations, making it versatile for different types of installations.
The RP2 is highly configurable through its integrated 1.3-inch OLED display, paired with a rotary encoder that provides real-time status and power consumption feedback. Users can monitor current sensing for each output directly on the display, allowing for effective tracking of power usage. The device also logs peak power consumption for both ports, providing valuable diagnostic information that can be accessed locally or remotely via the RDM protocol. Additionally, the RP2 displays actual, highest, and lowest voltage readings received, enhancing its functionality for troubleshooting and diagnostics.
One of the standout features of the RP2 is its optional smart power sequencing and DMX traffic detection capabilities. This allows for complete automation of fixture power based on DMX status; simply turning the console on or off will automatically switch the power relay in tandem. An internal clock enables standalone use of the RP2, allowing users to automate power outputs to specific days and times. For instance, the system can be programmed to turn off every day at midnight, preventing excessive power-on time and further protecting the fixtures.
The RP2 also includes a 24-hour/7-day event scheduler, making it incredibly flexible for various lighting applications. Users can set precise timing for when power should be delivered to fixtures, ensuring that equipment is powered only when necessary, which can significantly lower operational costs.
Constructed from durable powder-coated metal, the RP2 features a compact design that facilitates various mounting options, including standalone, truss-mount (with M10 or M12 mounting holes), wall-mount (horizontal or vertical), and DIN rail installation. This versatility allows it to be easily integrated into any setup. The device is designed for indoor use only and meets essential safety and quality standards, holding certifications from cETLus, CE, UKCA, and FCC, along with an IP20 rating.
With a physical size of 6.83 inches in length, 5.22 inches in width, and 1.97 inches in height, and weighing just 1.32 lbs, the RP2 is lightweight and compact, making it ideal for transport and installation. It operates within a power range of 100-240 V at 50/60 Hz, supporting 16A in both the USA and EU. This makes it suitable for various power supply conditions while ensuring efficient performance.
