ANSI E1.3-2001 (R2006)
American National Standard E1.3 2001 (R2006) - Entertainment Technology Lighting Control Systems 0 to 10V Analog Control Specification
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.
