The E8 Control Module is the successor to the well-known 8-channel PRO controller from uniLIGHT.at. Both the hardware and software have undergone a complete make-over, with several new features added, especially the support for uniLIGHT PLUS functionality when paired with uniLIGHT DESK.
This 8-channel module continues to offer versatile solutions for all lighting tasks in functional model building. It supports up to eight electrical or lighting circuits, with the option to use two different operating voltages. You can select up to six dynamic lighting sequences, five of which are fully programmable. These can be chosen via the servo range from -100% to +100%. Additionally, the speed of the lighting effect can be adjusted to suit personal preferences and the scale of the model.
The software interface has been upgraded to the 3-pin data interface for the uniLIGHT MODUL-PLUS programming cable. In addition to providing more stable communication, the data connection status can be traced directly on the cable. Other features of the E8 include:
Dynamic programming with 2 to 6 lighting patterns
Automatic servo range adjustment
Connector bars compatible with uniLIGHT standard lights
Galvanic isolation between RC and lighting
Galvanically isolated two-circuit operation with different batteries/voltages option
Robust, screwed housing with a mounting base included
Power capacity of up to 2x7A continuous current, up to 30V (depending on the lights used)
Fully programmable lighting patterns with 16-bit depth via the slid`n`click
Two servo outputs for controlling drop-out spotlights, flaps, landing gear, etc.
Servo outputs can be programmed for direct or soft start operation
Adjustable loop speed for each lighting pattern
Custom ramp functions for each channel in each lighting sequence
Individual idle pauses for each lighting channel, allowing for asynchronous behavior and custom pauses
