Introduction

The XSH Hybrid Splitter is a combination of a DMX splitter and a power distribution unit. It may dramatically simplify

the installation, especially when powerCON & DMX hybrid cables are used.

While the XSH-xxD models spilt and boost only DMX signals, the XSH-xxR models also detect RDM data and use the

protocol’s bidirectional functionality to report data back to the controller (Lighting board).

All output ports of the XSH are optically isolated. A strong power supply allows a reliable operation in a wide voltage

range. The XSH is available with 3-pin or 5-pin XLR connectors.

Applications

•Concert Lighting

•Live Events

•Multimedia Shows

•Theater

•TV Sets

•Theme Parks

•Architectural Lighting

Typical Application

Mains

DMX Controller

The XSH-xxR works within DMX / RDM environments as well as in pure DMX environments. Therefore, the XSH-xxR is

a good solution for those who expect to use RDM in the future. The XSH-xxD on the other hand only works with

DMX, while it ignores any RDM data.

Unpacking

The XSH Hybrid Splitter is packaged in a cardboard box. The following items are included:

•The device.

•This user manual.

•Rack mounting kit (2 brackets and 8 screws) with XSH-xRx versions only.

Safety Information

Consider the following notes absolutely when you set up, connect and use the XSH.

This product is not for household use. Read this manual before operating the device, follow the

safety precautions and observe all warnings in this manual.

Use this device only in accordance with local laws and regulations.

Safety Precautions

•Disconnect the device from AC power before removing any cover or part, including any

fuse and when not in use.

•Ensure that the device is electrically connected to ground (earth).

•Use only a source of AC power that complies with local building and electrical codes and

has both overload and ground-fault (earth fault) protection.

•Before using the device, check that the power distribution equipment and cables are in

perfect condition and rated for the current required of all connected devices.

•Isolate the device from power immediately if the power cable or the power plug is in any

way damaged, defective or wet, or if they show signs of overheating.

•Do not expose the device to rain or moisture.

•Do not operate the device if any cover or component is missing, damaged or deformed.

•Refer any service operation not described is this manual to Swisson.

•Provide unrestricted airflow around the device.

•Do not operate the device if the ambient temperature exceeds 55°C (131°F).

•Do not modify the device in any way not described in this manual or install other than

genuine Swisson parts.

•Do not attempt to bypass any fuse. Replace any defective fuse with one of the specified

type and rating only.

•When suspending the device, ensure that the supporting structure and all hardware used

can hold at least 10 times the weight of all devices suspended from them.

•When suspending the device, install a secondary attachment such as a safety cable that is

approved by an official body such as TÜV as a safety attachment for the total weight it

secures. The safety cable must comply with EN 60598-2-17 Section 17.6.6 and be capable

of bearing a static suspended load 10 times the weight of the device.

•Make sure that any external cover and rigging hardware is securely fastened.

•Block access below the work area whenever installing, servicing or moving an overhead

device.

•Do not use the device in areas where it is exposed to direct sunlight.

Mains Connection

The user must supply a suitable power cable. The user must then either hard-wire the power cable to the building’s

electrical installation, providing an easily accessible power on/off switch close to the device, or install on the power

cable a grounding-type (earthed) mains plug that is suitable for the local power outlets, following the power plug

manufacturer’s instructions. Consult a qualified electrician, if you have any doubts about proper installation.

A blue Neutrik powerCON NAC3FCA cable mount connector must be used to supply power at the XSH hybrid splitter

power input socket.

Warning! For protection from dangerous electric shock, the device must be grounded (earthed). The

local AC power source must have both overload and ground-fault (earth fault) protection.

Important! Only insert or remove a live Neutrik powerCON connector to apply or cut power in an

emergency, as doing so may cause arcing at the terminals that will damage the connectors.

Power Outlets

Warning! The total current load of all devices connected to AC mains power outlets of the XSH hybrid

splitter power must not exceed 19.8 amps.

• A power cable that meets the requirements specified on safety instructions of this manual must be used to

connect the XSH Hybrid Splitter to AC mains power and to connect other devices to the power outlets.

• A light-grey Neutrik powerCON NAC3FCB cable-mount connector must be used to draw AC mains power from the

XSH Hybrid Splitter’s power outlets.

• No matter what the AC mains power voltage is, the current draw of all the devices that draw AC mains power from

the power outlets of an XHS hybrid splitter must not exceed a total of 19.8 amps.

DMX Connections

Depending on the version, the XSH is equipped with 5-pin or 3-pin XLRs.

The DMX input is fully isolated and has a built-in termination. All outputs are isolated transmitters with a bias

network for RDM operation. Each output port is individually optically isolated, meaning that it is totally isolated from

the other output ports and from the input section.

The bar graph LEDs show the total amps drawn by and through the XSH. The lighting down arrow led shows that the

load is less than six amps if all other LEDs are turned off.

The lighting up arrow shows that the load exceeds 20A. This is an overload condition! Never run an installation in

this condition.

The current sensor value is also reported over RDM (XSH-xxRmodels only).

Note: The LED bar graph is also used to show the RDM identify. See RDM Protocol (Remote Device Management).

RDM Protocol (Remote Device Management)

All XSH-xxR models support the RDM protocol. The RDM protocol is not supported on XSH-xxD models. The XSH-xxR

forward the RDM messages to all connected devices and send the RDM responses back to the RDM controller. The

XSH-xxR acts as a non-proxy inline device. The XSH-xxR itself is a responder to RDM messages and can be discovered

on an RDM network.

19-inch Rack Mounting Option

To mount in a rack:

Fasten the L-brackets using the included, thread-forming Torx 10 M3 x 8 screws as shown above.

Note: XSH-xBx models are shipped without L-brackets and screws. XSH-xRx models are shipped with L-brackets and

screws. The rack mounting kit (L-brackets and screws) can also be ordered separately.

Warning! Do not use screws with a thread length of more than 8 mm (0.32 in) for mounting the brackets

onto the XSH.
