Swisson XRC-CT15B Description

The Swisson XRC-CT15B expands the functionality of compatible XRC-200 series DMX recorders by providing 15 individually configurable external trigger inputs. These inputs allow lighting sequences and playlists to be controlled through connected switches, push buttons, relays, or other dry contact devices. This functionality is especially useful for installations requiring simple, repeatable lighting control without direct operation of the recorder.

Each contact input can be assigned a specific action through the connected XRC-200 recorder. Available functions include playing a recorded sequence, starting a playlist, pausing playback, and stopping playback. This makes it possible to create customized control interfaces for architectural lighting, museum exhibits, interactive displays, entertainment systems, and other applications where lighting must respond to external triggers.

The XRC-CT15B connects to a compatible recorder using a standard straight-through RJ45 cable, which carries both communication signals and operating power. Its internal terminals accommodate up to 15 external contact connections, while the enclosure provides cable entry points for organized wiring. The unit operates without a separate power adapter when connected to a compatible Swisson recorder.

Designed for fixed lighting installations and professional control integration, the XRC-CT15B features a compact enclosure and passive cooling. Its ability to translate physical contact inputs into recorder commands provides a convenient way to integrate lighting playback with external buttons, switches, and automation equipment. The XRC-200 recorder and RJ45 connecting cable are available separately.
