    RETROFIT DMX CONTROL

    Add intelligent DMX control to existing Square D breaker panels.

    The RBLC provides a streamlined solution for adding modern DMX512 lighting control to facilities with existing Square D electrical infrastructure. Instead of a costly and disruptive panel replacement, the RBLC mounts alongside the current cabinet, integrating directly with new Square D QO-style remote-controlled breakers. This architecture simplifies the upgrade process, allowing contractors to introduce sequenced, zoned, or individual circuit control with minimal new wiring.

    The system is housed in a lockable, rain-tight Hoffman enclosure, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. It is engineered for straightforward installation and setup, eliminating the need for specialized on-site commissioning and providing a cost-effective path to intelligent power management.

    SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY

    Integrate the RBLC with your facility.

    The RBLC is designed to work with specific electrical panels and standard control protocols.

    Square D QO Panels

    Designed to mount alongside and control any Square D electrical panel that accepts QO-style breakers.

    Square D QO Motorized Breakers

    Requires remote-controlled QO breakers (15A, 20A, or 30A; 1, 2, or 3-pole) which are sold separately.

    Standard DMX512 Controllers

    Integrates with any lighting console or architectural controller that outputs the standard DMX512 protocol.
    CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

    Configure your retrofit panel.

    Select the RBLC model based on the number of circuits you need to control.
    Available Models

    The RBLC is available in two capacities to match your project’s scale.

    • RBLC-10: Controls up to ten Square D QO motorized circuit breakers. Ideal for smaller zones or systems.
    • RBLC-20: Controls up to twenty Square D QO motorized circuit breakers. Suited for larger installations requiring more circuits.
    Control and Integration

    The RBLC uses DMX512 for straightforward integration into lighting control systems.

    • DMX512 Protocol: Provides individual on, off, or no-change commands for each connected breaker.
    • Simple Addressing: A jumper system sets the starting DMX address, and subsequent breakers are assigned sequential addresses automatically.
    Required Breakers

    The RBLC controller requires compatible motorized breakers, which are ordered separately.

    • Square D QO Breakers: Use any remote-controlled QO-style breaker from Square D.
    • Flexible Sizing: Breakers are available in 15A, 20A, and 30A ratings with 1, 2, or 3 poles to match load requirements.

    FAQ

    FAQs about the RBLC Panel

    Does this panel require a factory technician for commissioning?

    No, the RBLC is designed for simple setup and does not require on-site commissioning or a factory start-up, which helps reduce installation time and cost.

    How is the DMX addressing configured for the breakers?

    Addressing is set physically using a simple jumper system on the internal control board. You set the starting address, and each subsequent breaker is automatically assigned the next sequential DMX address.

    Is the RBLC suitable for outdoor installations?

    Yes, the RBLC is housed in a lockable, rain-tight Hoffman NEMA 3R enclosure, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications where it is protected from direct, driving rain.

    What do I need to purchase besides the RBLC panel itself?

    The RBLC is a controller. You will need to order the appropriate number and type of Square D QO remote-controlled circuit breakers separately to match your specific load requirements.
