CTB16PC

The CTB16PC is a less expensive version of the CTB16D 16-channel AC controller.

Some functionality is removed to bring the price down, such as no standalone operation and no on-board rotary switches for channel ID configuration.
  • AC controller
  • 16 channels
  • Preassembled or Kit
  • 120V AC or 240V AC operating voltage - note: must be set by a jumper (refer to manual). Not all boards are rated for 240V
  • 1 amp max per channel without high-power heatsink or 8 amp max per channel with regular (high-power) heatsink
  • 8 amp max per bank (side) without high-power heatsink or 15 amp max per bank (side) with regular (high-power) heatsink
  • LOR/DMX protocol support
  • Spade connector (also known as quick connects)
  • Controller ID set from Hardware Utility software only (see manual)
  • No standalone mode (requires a computer, director or other controller with standalone mode)

Voltage selection

Light-O-Rama (LOR) AC boards come mainly in 16 channel format with 2 x 8 separate powered sides.
The right side controls channels 9 to 16 and this side also provides power to the controller’s electronics. This must be either 110 volts or 240 volts depending on the position of the jumper.

LOR AC controllers vary in a number of components depending on the destination country’s voltage. A board intended for 110V countries may be damaged if it is connected to 240V mains power, even if the voltage selection jumper is set to 240V AC mode





The left side controls channels 1 to 8 which alternatively is capable to handle a lower AC voltage, such as 24VAC. In such case you will need to use a suitably rated transformer to supply channels 1-8 as the controller does not convert voltages. The right side (channels 9-16) must always be either 120VAC or 240VAC.
