Power Control

While our basic PDUs cannot be field-upgraded internally, they serve as a reliable power foundation for a larger system. To add sequencing or network control, you would typically power the PDU from a dedicated LynTec power control product like an RPC panel or an NPAC sequencer. This modular approach allows you to start with simple distribution and scale up to intelligent control as system needs evolve.

Yes, our systems are designed with a modular and scalable architecture. For facility-wide control, the RPC system starts with a master panel and can be expanded with RPS secondary panels to manage up to 168 circuits from a single interface.

For rack-based applications, up to ten NPAC units can be networked together to operate as a single, synchronized system. The XPC series further extends this modularity, allowing you to add remote relays anywhere on the network and integrate them into an existing panel installation.

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.

Our power control systems are engineered for seamless integration. Products like the RPC, LCP, and NPAC feature native support for common AV and lighting protocols, including IP (Telnet/HTTP), DMX, and sACN. This allows them to connect directly to control systems from Crestron, AMX, and Q-SYS without requiring custom drivers or complex programming.

Most of our network-enabled panels also include a built-in web server, providing a simple browser interface for setup, monitoring, and direct control from any connected device.

Power sequencing is configured through a simple, browser-based interface on our network-enabled products like the RPC, NPAC, and XPC. This allows you to set the power-on and power-off order for every circuit or relay to prevent high inrush currents that can damage sensitive equipment.

You can define custom step-rates between sequenced events, from a fraction of a second up to 999 seconds on some models. This provides the flexibility needed to safely manage the startup procedure for amplifiers, DSPs, projectors, and other professional AV gear.

Our network-controlled systems are engineered for straightforward commissioning by the installer, with no on-site factory specialist required. Once the panel is physically installed and connected to the network, all configuration is done through a standard web browser.

The integrated web server provides an intuitive interface for setting IP addresses, configuring zones, establishing sequence timing, and assigning control protocols. This simplified process reduces installation time and complexity for systems like the RPC, LCP, and NPAC.

A basic power distribution unit (PDU) is the ideal foundation for providing clean, protected power to a single rack where only manual on/off control is needed. They are a simple and reliable starting point for any installation.

Choose a networked power controller or sequencer when you need to manage system startup/shutdown order, control individual outlets remotely, or integrate power management with a third-party control system like Crestron, Q-SYS, or AMX.

A centralized breaker panel like an RPC or LCP is ideal when most of your circuits originate from a single electrical room. This approach simplifies high-voltage wiring and provides a single point of management for an entire area or venue.

A distributed system like our XPC series is the right choice when you need to control equipment located far from the main panel. By placing XPC remote relay modules near the load (such as powered speakers, digital signage, or architectural lighting), you reduce the need for long, dedicated power runs, saving on conduit and labor costs.
