user to install, maintain, and operate sPDS-60ca 24V in such a manner as
to comply with all state and local laws, ordinances, regulations, and the
American National Standards Institute Safety Code.
sPDS-60ca 24V is shipped with a US IEC power cable. For
note :
international customers, use a country-specific IEC cable meeting the
following specifications: 3-conductor, 18 AWG (1.00mm2), HAR rating for
Europe, and JET rating for Japan. (Hard Service Type ST or equivalent.)
Ensure the IEC inlet plug fits in the supplied lock. The lock may not

INSTALLING sPDS-60ca 24V
sPDS-60ca 24V must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance
with NEC and relevant local codes for power supplies. A power
screwdriver is recommended for mounting the unit.
Mounting the Housing
• Select the location to mount the housing, keeping sPDS-60ca 24V within
the maximum distance specified for your fixture. Refer to your fixture
user guide for the cable run information.
Ensure that there is adequate space to make all connections to
NOTE:
the front and rear of the unit.
• Mount the housing to a flat surface using four M3.5 or #6 flat head
screws suitable for the mounting surface. Mounting slots are located on
each end of the housing. (See Fig. 1.)
Do not overtighten the mounting screws.

WIRING sPDS-60ca 24V
After mounting the power/data supply, you are ready to connect power,
lights, and data to sPDS-60ca 24V.
Connecting Lights to sPDS-60ca 24V
• Install white clamp-on EMI Suppression Core on fixture leader cable.
Follow instructions in figure 2a for method of installation.
• Plug the leader cable connector into a power output receptacle on

Connecting DMX Data to sPDS-60ca 24V
sPDS-60ca 24V receives DMX data from, and can be controlled by, Philips
full line of DMX512 controllers or any third party DMX512 controller.
• Plug the data RJ45 connector from the controller into the DMX IN port.
• To daisy-chain DMX data to another sPDS-60ca 24V, connect a CAT 5
cable with RJ45 connectors between the DMX OUT port of the first unit
and the DMX IN port of the next unit. Plug a terminator into the DMX
OUT port of the last power supply in a data chain. (See Fig. 3.)

Connecting Ethernet Data to sPDS-60ca 24V
sPDS-60ca 24V receives Ethernet data from Light System Manager (LSM)
or Video System Manager (VSM). LSM consists of Light System Composer
software and Light System Engine hardware, and VSM consists of Video
System Manager software and Video System Engine hardware. A dedicated
network and one or more Ethernet switches are required for your
installation. (See Fig. 4.) Refer to the LSM User Guide or VSM User Guide
for setup and configuration information.
