+ABOUT THE LCP SERIES
Simplified power control for complex lighting systems.
LCP panels combine reliable circuit protection with versatile control protocols to simplify power infrastructure for modern lighting and video walls.
The LynTec LCP series provides a robust power control solution engineered specifically for lighting and video wall installations. Built around trusted Square D Powerlink motorized breakers, each panel combines reliable circuit protection with versatile, modern control. An integrated web server allows for setup and monitoring from any browser, while native support for DMX, sACN, and IP protocols ensures seamless integration with any lighting console or control system.
With a built-in astronomical clock and scheduler, the LCP system simplifies the automation of complex lighting scenes for performance venues and architectural applications. The modular design, with panel sizes from 30 to 84 circuits, allows each system to be tailored to the precise needs of the installation.
WHY IT MATTERS
Engineered for lighting integration.
01
Native DMX, sACN, and IP control for seamless integration.
Connect directly to any lighting console or control system without gateways or protocol converters. Group circuits into 12 zones, each with unique control addressing, for flexible and responsive system design.
02
Built on trusted Square D Powerlink motorized breakers.
Each panel uses industry-standard motorized breakers rated for 200,000 on/off cycles. This provides a reliable foundation for circuit protection and control that facility managers already trust and know how to service.
03
Integrated scheduling and automation simplifies daily operations.
An onboard astronomical clock and scheduler automates lighting events based on time of day or sunrise and sunset. The built-in web server provides a simple interface for setup, monitoring, and manual overrides.
FAQ
Your questions, answered.
Common questions about specifying and installing LCP panelboards.
Can surge protection be added to an LCP panel?
Yes, LCP panels can be specified with optional, factory-installed surge protection modules. We offer integrated SurgeX or SPD modules that fit directly into the panelboard enclosure.
This provides a robust, coordinated protection solution for all connected lighting and video wall circuits, simplifying the electrical design and installation while safeguarding sensitive downstream equipment.
Do your panels support UL 924 emergency lighting requirements?
Yes. Our LCP and RPC panelboard systems are ETL listed to UL 924 for emergency lighting control. They are engineered to provide automated, reliable control for emergency egress lighting paths in performance venues and public spaces.
These panels include features like circuit-selectable auto-on upon loss of normal power and integration with fire alarm systems, ensuring they meet life-safety code requirements for always-on emergency circuits.
How are circuits zoned for control in an LCP panel?
The LCP platform provides flexible control by allowing you to group circuits into as many as 12 distinct zones. Each zone can be assigned its own unique control protocol and address.
This modular approach simplifies the management of complex lighting schemes, enabling different areas or fixture types to respond to separate DMX, sACN, or IP commands from a single panelboard.
How does contact closure integrate with a fire alarm system?
For life safety applications, a contact closure input on a LynTec panel is wired directly to a relay output on the building’s Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP). When the FACP enters an alarm state, it closes the relay, sending a signal to the LynTec panel.
This signal overrides all other control commands and forces designated emergency circuits, such as egress lighting, to an ‘on’ state. This direct, hardwired connection ensures reliable activation and is a key component for meeting UL 924 standards for emergency lighting control.
How is an LCP panel configured and monitored?
Every LCP panel features a built-in web server that provides a full browser interface for all setup, control, and monitoring functions. An integrator can connect to the panel’s IP address from a computer or mobile device to configure zones, set DMX/sACN addresses, create schedules, and manually override circuits.
This integrated interface simplifies installation and provides facility managers with clear, remote visibility of the system’s status.
Is the LCP panel suitable for emergency lighting applications?
Yes, LCP panels are ETL listed to UL 924 standards for Emergency Lighting and Power Equipment. They can be specified to provide automated control for emergency egress lighting systems, ensuring that circuits designated for emergency use are properly managed during a power failure or fire alarm event.
What control protocols does the LCP support out of the box?
LCP panels are engineered for seamless lighting system integration with native support for DMX, sACN, and IP (TCP/IP). This allows direct connection to any modern lighting console or control system without requiring external protocol converters or gateways.
Each panel also includes an integrated web server, allowing for setup, monitoring, and control from any standard web browser on the network.
What kind of breakers are used in LCP panels?
LCP panels are built on a foundation of reliability using industry-standard Square D Powerlink motorized breakers. These breakers are trusted by facility managers and are rated for 200,000 on/off cycles, ensuring long-term performance for demanding lighting and video wall applications.
Using these standard components also simplifies any future service or maintenance requirements.
When should I specify an LCP panel instead of an RPC panel?
The choice depends on the application’s primary focus. The LCP series is purpose-built for lighting and video wall installations, offering robust DMX and sACN control. The RPC system is a more comprehensive infrastructure solution for mixed audio, video, and lighting environments. It provides broader protocol support, advanced sequencing, and greater scalability for facility-wide control.
Which LynTec power control panels are compatible with the SGX series?
The SGX series is engineered as a sidecar unit for seamless integration with specific LynTec panels. It is fully compatible with the MSP, LCP, SCP, and RPC series, creating a single, unified enclosure for both sequenced power control and robust surge protection.
Which LynTec products have dedicated fire alarm inputs?
The LynTec RPC Remote Control Breaker Panel and LCP Lighting Control Panelboard series are specifically engineered with dedicated, supervised contact closure inputs for fire alarm integration. These inputs are designed to connect directly to a Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) to meet life safety code requirements for emergency lighting control, including UL 924.
This built-in functionality simplifies the design and installation of code-compliant emergency power systems for performance venues and public spaces.
