DMX Snapshot: Multi-Zone Controls and Streaming DMX Controls
Presidor™ Wall Stations (PWS) are the next evolution in Architainment Lighting Controls. These professional-grade units couple intuitive operation with advanced capacitive touch technology, enabling reliable connection and control across single and multi-room setups. Each lighting wall station features a clean, patent-protected 1-gang design with color-matched adapter plates up to 7-gang and surface-mount back boxes. Supporting up to 70 presets on a single DMX512 universe, the PWS can operate as a DMX console or a snapshot/playback device. These lighting wall stations integrate easily with building management and show control systems through real-time scheduling, programmable auxiliary contact inputs, and flexible interface options. Wiring topology is fast, simple, and inexpensive with standard Cat5/5e or Cat6 cabling using standard RJ-45 connectors. You can daisy-chain up to 15 stations per room and scale up to 25 rooms using Presidor™ Room Linker/Combiners (PRLC), ensuring every action is coordinated and every response is fast.

Analog Wiring Models
JSI Manufacturing developed the specialized Presidor™ Wall Station for retrofit applications in older heritage buildings with existing analog wiring, eliminating the need to run modern CAT5 or similar cabling. Our unique inter-station communication, which we refer to as Unipolar Bi-Direction Protocol (UBD), allows quick retrofit wherever 3 conductors (daisy-chain) or 4 conductors (star) exist. This protocol operates on a single wire of virtually any type, allowing for digital communication between the room “Main” PWS station and connected “Secondary” stations, up to 12 stations per room. It is necessary to operate this model of lighting control wall station at a higher voltage between 24VDC & 48VDC. A Main/Master station will output up to 512 channels of DMX. Presets are limited to 20 compared with the standard 70 preset capability of the PWS-70P-DMX to maintain function and noise immunity at the lower baud rate of this unique protocol. A minimum of 4 wires is required. The maximum distance between stations is dependent on wiring type and gauge. The recommended power supply is model #PS-DIN-24, which is included in PWS-KITs or available separately.
