    Grafix eye QS & Power Module

    I have the grafix eye qs. Reading through the manual there are references to using the power module. What is the advantage or when would I want to use the external power module? In my case, across all 6 zones, I have 26 led cans.

    The power module is for large loads and uses another dimmer or graphic eye zone as a control method. Hard to see where the 26 LED cans would require one, unless you have a very high number on a single zone in the GE. How do those cans lay out on the six zones?

    The power module can be used for different load types. If you LEDs need reverse-phase/trailing edge control, you will need a power module with the Grafik Eye.

    The largest zone might have 10 lights tops.

    max power on any given zone is 800w incandescent. depending on the LED load, you could be fine. what is the fixture/light/bulb you are using?

    Hi Lume 1% Tuwire Driver with Grafik QS

    Good Morning!I have a question regarding dimming hi lume tuwire drivers with a Grafik QS. I know that I can dimm direct to a zone in the Grafik QS unit 10 LED drivers. We have an application that a zone has 78 drivers. Can I use 3 PHPM-PA as power boosters to dim 26 drivers with each one? I know that an RPM-4A module can operate 26 drivers total. Please advise,thanks

    I would call tech support, this sounds like a commercial application that would need to go through the engineering team.
