2. General device description

e:cue SYMPL Nodes are a system of interfaces for e:cue SYMPHOLIGHT only. They provide various

connection types like DMX512, DALI, digital inputs and outputs etc. SYMPL Nodes always operate in online

mode, as a device interface for SYMPHOLIGHT. All interactions are initiated and controlled by

SYMPHOLIGHT. Connections between servers, Cores and Nodes are always made with e:net via Ethernet.

e:cue SYMPL Core Sp is a stand-alone engine for e:cue SYMPHOLIGHT with SYMPL Nodes as interfaces. It

executes SYMPHOLIGHT proejects in small to medium-sized projects and controls all available SYMPL

Nodes. As a user interface it utilizes the Action Pad of SYMPHOLIGHT with all usual web browsers. The

connection between SYMPL Core Sp, external systems and the Nodes is a standard Ethernet network.

Projects can be transferred to the SYMPL Core Sp from a SYMPHOLIGHT server or via its web interface.

Numerous settings and actions can be accessed via the web interface. The SYMPL Core Sp can be powered

by an external power supply or via Power-over-Ethernet.

— The device must be supplied by a separate certied SELV

Class 2 power supply.

— The maximum length of each connected cable is 30 m.

— The Ethernet port of the SYMPL Node is not designed for

inter-building connections with power and lighting

transients. Use only intra-building networks to connect

the SYMPL Nodes and Cores.

If safety instructions are missing, please contact Traxon

e:cue to receive a new copy.

— To operate SYMPL Nodes a SYMPHOLIGHT version 2.0

or higher is mandatory. Earlier versions do not support

the SYMPL Nodes. SYMPL Nodes are not supported by

the e:cue Lighting Application Suite.

4.2 Mounting process

The e:cue SYMPL Core Sp is designed to mount onto a 35 mm DIN rail (EN 60715) in a vertical position.

1. Clip the device to the rail from top.

2. Gentle pressure is then applied to the top front to snap it in place. The

SYMPL Core Sp has been mounted successfully.

You can also mount the e:cue SYMPL Core Sp on any at vertical surface. Use a 3 to 3.5 mm screw for the

hanger hole.

4.3 Ethernet connection

The pin-assignment of the Ethernet port corresponds to RJ45 standards. You can use every common

Ethernet component, like cable, splitters, and switches. Connect the SYMPL Core Sp at the designated

Ethernet interface with a patch cable (RJ45, CAT5).

4.4 Power supply

The e:cue SYMPL Core Sp can be powered by an external power supply or via Power-over-Ethernet.

For mechanical stability, mounting on a rail is recommended.

— The Ethernet port of the SYMPL Node is not designed for

inter-building connections with power and lighting

transients. Use only intra-building networks to connect

the SYMPL Nodes and Cores.

— Never connect more than one SYMPL Node in factory

state to a network. The identical IP addresses will conict

and disturb proper communication.

PoE:

For PoE, simply connect an Ethernet connection from a power sourcing device.

External power supply:

Connect the SYMPL Core Sp to a certied NEC Class 2 24 ... 48 V DC power supply unit. Present power

supply equates to the status “On” or running of the SYMPL Node.

To connect the device to a power supply unit, use the provided 2-pole terminal and lay the wires as stated on

the front label. The voltage assignment is left V- and right V+.

Turn the power on when all cables are connected to the SYMPL Core Sp. The device starts booting. The

device has nished booting and is in operation when the LED Error / Status is ashing.
