This standard describes a method of controlling equipment by means of an analog control voltage. It is primarily intended for lighting control equipment (controllers and dimmers) although any equipment which might be controlled by a lighting controller (intelligent lighting, strobe lights, fog machines, etc.) could use this control method.
Some 0 to 10V controlled devices (such as dimmable fluorescent ballasts) require current-sink controllers. E1.3 controllers are current-source devices and cannot control these receivers without modification or additional interface components.
This standard does not address electro-magnetic compatibility (EMC) issues, which might result from control line oscillations caused by poorly designed controllers or cabling practices.
Purpose
The purpose of this specification is to document the now common 0 to 10V direct current control system as typically used in lighting applications and provide specifications for new designs.
