The AR-1202 is a 12 channel X 2400 watts per channel dimmer. It accepts DMX-512 signals and allows remote station control of preset scenes. The unit operates from either single or three phase power. The highly versatile AR-1202 may utilize multiple remote stations to activate specific user programmed scenes pre-stored in the unit. Several remote types may be used. The AR-1202 meets UL-508 requirements and is listed by MET Laboratories.

The AR-1202 consists of a processor and 12 dimmer channel circuits of 2400 watts each. Each dimmer channel is protected from overload conditions by a high speed magnetic circuit breaker. Heavy duty filtering chokes, composed of a special ferro-resonant material, are used to severely reduce objectionable acoustic filament noise in lamps. Filter chokes have a rise time of not less than 600 microseconds. Filtering minimizes EMI/RFI emitted onto the power lines to meet FCC guidelines for minimum emissions. Dimmer channel semiconductors exceed 200% load carrying capacity overhead. All components and sub-systems are UL recognized components. All internal wiring conforms to UL standards as they apply to commercial grade dimmers.
