Strand CD80® Racks CD-3000+ Upgrade Dimming Control System
The CD-3000+ is a next-generation retrofit electronics package designed specifically for any vintage of Strand CD80® or Strand/Signify C21 dimmer rack. The CD-3000+ will replace the aging control electronics of the existing dimmer rack making system replacement unnecessary.
CD-80 Power Modules
Our popular CD-80 Power Modules are designed as direct replacements for dual 2400-watt dimmer modules, delivering pure AC sinusoidal non-dim power control. They are optimized for modern loads and support control through DMX, Ethernet, and other contemporary communication protocols. Modules are ETL compliant and designed specifically for the application, providing cost-effective non-dim solutions for all models of existing Strand CD-80 dimmer racks.
“To date, we have had zero issues with the upgrades. All [JSI Manufacturing] console boards have been compatible, zero mystery errors as with the originals, and the end users find them to be the easiest racks they have ever worked with. Best decision we ever made.”
“Solid company. Solid staff. Great results. Refreshing to still have companies like JSI around that are not based on corporate money-focused shareholders. More often than not, you get what you pay for, but with JSI, a retrofit saves cash.”
“On install day, it was obvious that JSI was devoted to getting the retrofit completed, and with the ferocity of a chihuahua on a pork chop, they did not let go until the mission was completed.”
Presidor™ Room Linker/Combiner (PRLC-4)
Our Presidor™ Room Linker/Combiner (PRLC-4) is a sophisticated multi-port DMX512 merger that fills in a gap left by Strand lighting controls. Designed as the central hub for Presidor™ Wall Stations (PWS), this intelligent device enables seamless merging of DMX512 input streams through contact input “patching,” allowing the creation of larger rooms or zones. Its compact 1RU design fits in any standard 19″ rack or can be mounted using a custom 19″ wall mount rack.

There are various advantages to upgrading your Strand lighting system with our CD-3000+SV Dimmer Controller. Some of these advantages include:
- Cooling: The CD-3000+SV retrofit provides a dimmer rack with three new high CFM fans and filters. It also incorporates a larger air intake, which minimizes static loading of the fans and minimizes the sound signature of the fans.
- Mounting: The CD-3000+SV retrofit mounts quickly and easily.
- Connections: The CD-3000+SV retrofit uses locking connectors for dimmer connections. All backplane connections are directly compatible with all OEM wiring.
- Reporting Modules: The CD-3000+SV retrofit does not support the OEM reporting feature, which is the same on the factory retrofit. No loss of features.
- Temperature Sensors: The CD-3000+SV retrofit supports and uses existing temperature sensors thus simplifying the retrofit process. These sensors are not custom and are easy to source, should they require replacement.
- DMX Inputs: The CD-3000+SV retrofit can automatically listen to and receive all types of DMX timing and packet sizes.
- Multiple Racks: The CD-3000+SV uses easy-to-install and supplied CAT5E cables for rack-to-rack linking.
- Network: The CD-3000+SV, with network card, accepts Strand Show Net, SACN (Net 3), ArtNet, Net 2, and Pathport protocols for universal application.
- Control Processor Swap Outs: The CD-3000+ Control Module can be easily swapped if needed. All settings are backed up on a removable memory module.
- Auxiliary Options: The CD-3000+ provides 12VDC to auxiliary stations or peripheral devices allowing easy integration with third party controls. It also allows for up to four analog inputs allowing easy integration for old or outdated but not easy to replace legacy stations.
