LynTec Debuts New Solutions that Extend the Reach of Power Control at LDI 2018

LynTec XRS 20, part of the new XPC Remote Relay Module line.

LynTec, a manufacturer of innovative electrical power control solutions for professional audio, video, and lighting systems, will introduce its new line of Xtend Power Control (XPC) remote relay modules and a standalone controller in booth 2427 at LDI 2018, October 19 - 21 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, adding virtually unlimited flexibility to the company's extensive power control options. The company will also demonstrate the award-winning Networkable Power Automation Control (NPAC) rack-mounted system, the industry's only complete, ready-to-install power and zoned lighting management solution that can manage up to 80A in a single 2RU unit.

"Our customers often need to control circuits that are being fed from a panel on the other side of the venue, requiring them to wire everything back to the main panel," said Mark Bishop, president of LynTec. "Now they can use one or more of our XPC remote relay options to tie their equipment into to the existing RPC controller in their motorized circuit breaker panel, an RPCR electrical relay panel, or NPAC rack-mounted relay panel without having to bring their electricity all the way back to that panel. They can also add our patented, web-based control system to any device that needs to be on the same network, extending their power control platform more broadly and affordably than ever before."

LynTec's new XPC remote relay modules extend beyond the traditional reach of the company's relay panels and motorized circuit breakers. Enclosed in a metal cube, they can be placed anywhere imaginable: in the rack, on rigging, behind line arrays, or anywhere equipment is located. Each module contains an electrical connection, a power plug, and an Ethernet port. Integration is simple and straightforward: Connect the module to a power source and the network, and then plug in the equipment that needs power control. Using LynTec's IP-based GUI, users can set up and customize the control and sequencing for each device. The family includes:

* XRM 20 Relay Module: a standalone 20A cube enclosure with two independent relays to control the two onboard duplex plugs.

* XRM 30 Relay Module: a standalone 30A cube enclosure with a single relay switch that controls a single 30A L5-30 receptacle.

* XRS 20 Rack Sequencer: a 1RU rack-mounted enclosure powered from a 20A circuit to provide control to three duplex receptacles, each of which has its own relay switch for onboard sequencing.

* XRS 80 Rack Sequencer: a hardwired vertical rack-mounted strip that can manage up to four 20A circuits that power four corresponding duplexes, each with its own relay switch to provide onboard control.

The XPC standalone controller offers LynTec's trusted RPC control solution that previously was only available in LynTec's RPC series motorized circuit breaker panel, RPCM mobile distro, RPCR wall-mounted relay panel, or NPAC rack-mounted relay panel. Now customers can take advantage of all the capabilities and features of the popular and time-tested RPC controller they're already familiar with but in a standalone 1RU rack-mounted enclosure. This eliminates the costs of purchasing preconfigured controllable circuit breakers or relays while providing customers with a way to operate one or more remotely placed relay modules spread out over an extended area or venue. Easy to set up, operate, and maintain, the controller can control lighting and AV systems across multiple control zones and protocols and offers customizable step rates and delay settings for sequencing, load shedding at the circuit level for emergency off, auto-on for egress lighting, a built-in timer for automated control, and more. In addition to onboard control options, the XPC controller can interface with any third-party control system that communicates with Telnet, HTTP, DMX512, sACN, or contact closure signals.

At the booth, LynTec will also demonstrate the ready-to-install NPAC rackmount power management solution. It is the only rackmount solution of its kind to sequence on/off complex digital audio systems with easy-to-program extended step rates and time delays that guarantee proper component boot-up and shutdown automatically. NPAC is available in two models: 120V or 240V, and features four 20A circuit inputs in a single 2RU enclosure -- saving valuable rack space over 4RU systems and eliminating the need to wire multiple units together.

The new XPC line is expected to ship starting in December.
