SCM-MFD-LC-KIT OVERVIEW

The Shadow-Caster® MFD Lighting Control Kit (SCM-MFD-LC-KIT) includes the Multi-Zone Lighting Controller (SCM-MZ-LC) and the MFD Bridge (SCM-MFD-BRIDGE).

The SCM-MZ-LC Lighting Controller supplies fused power connection for up to 4 separate zones of user selectable RGB or RGBW lighting. It can receive an analog music input, and also broadcasts multiple channels of digital commands to other devices on the Shadow-NET® Bus (orange and yellow wires).

The SCM-MFD-BRIDGE provides a control interface to the Multi-Zone Lighting Controller through an Ethernet connected MFD (Multi-Function Display) or other connected device.

The control interface steps you through selecting and naming a desired number of control zones. The setup process will also identify all additional Shadow-NET® connected devices and assign them to the desired lighting zone. The zones can then be assigned to a desired color and brightness or even configured for an active lighting program. The program is saved as a unique 'lighting scene' for easy recall.

At initial power up the Shadow-NET® bus will broadcast messages to tell connected devices to turn off. This allows these devices to be used without a dedicated switch. When the SCM-MZ-LC controller receives a command to turn on, it will send a corresponding command to devices connected on the Shadow-NET® bus.

OPTIMIZING MUSIC SYNC

1. Turn music to typical listening volume, and press PAUSE on your stereo system. This will provide the lighting controller with an input signal representative of the audio system background noise.
2. Adjust the sensitivity down 1 step at a time until the lights do not blink or flicker - this sets the system sensitivity to just above the audio systems noise floor.
3. Resume music. The lights should now be changing in sync with the music input.

CONNECTING THE SCM-MFD-BRIDGE & INITIAL SYNCING

The SCM-MFD-BRIDGE is designed to automatically detect the brand of MFD it is connected to and establish a connection. Once the onboarding process is complete, and this information is verified, this step will not have to be repeated.

If the system does not establish a connection at initial startup:

CYCLE THE POWER OF JUST THE MFD BRIDGE, BY REMOVING THE 4 PIN CONNECTOR AND WAITING 10 SECONDS, AND THEN RECONNECT.

If the SCM-MFD-BRIDGE is moved from one brand display to another, a factory reset must be initiated on the screen prior to disconnecting.

Once the SCM-MFD-BRIDGE is properly connected, the Shadow-Caster® app icon will appear on the home screen or gauges accessories scene. Simply click on this icon to open the application.

Note: In the case of Raymarine MFDs, this icon is already there and not an indication of connectivity.

INSTALLATION

SCM-MZ-LC INSTALLATION

Central mounting locations under the helm areas or in the bilges are acceptable.

1. Orient the cable glands facing down or to the side so that they do not collect water.
2. Cinch cable glands as tightly as possible and fill unused glands so that the box is water tight.
3. Use the included four 8 x 34 " SS pan head screws for mounting.

SELECTING RGB OR RGBW LIGHTING

Set the RGB(W) dip switch within the SCM-MZ-LC, depending on whether a zone is using RGB or RGBW lighting, from left to right, as follows:.

Switch 1 2 3 4
↑	ZONE 1RGB	ZONE 2RGB	ZONE 3RGB	ZONE 4RGB
↓	ZONE 1RGBW	ZONE 3RGBW	ZONE 3RGBW	ZONE 4RGBW

SCM-MZ-LC POWER REQUIREMENTS

See the Shadow-Caster ^® wire awg recommendations for detailed calculations. It is very important to have sufficient gauge wire feeds for RGB lighting.

It is recommended to separate feeds for lighting and for sensitive stereo power feeds with direct runs to the battery or a heavy gauge distribution point.

The SCM-MZ-LC will support 15 amps per zone. For a total of 60 amps in the entire box. The SCM-MZ-LC comes with 10 amp fuses installed.

The SCM-MZ-LC will work in 12V or 24V systems. Please note that 12V or 24 compatible RGB(W) products should be used depending on the application.

SCM-MFD-BRIDGE MFDSCM-MZ-LC

SCM-ZC-REMOTE

SHADOW-NET ^® DEVICES

Connect Shadow-NET ^® enabled devices to the orange and yellow Shadow-NET ^® wires coming from the Multi-Zone Lighting Controller.

As soon as the Multi-Zone Lighting Controller receives power, multiple channels of digital messages start broadcasting on these wires. These messages allow Shadow-NET® enabled devices to be connected without a switch. Initially these commands are for attached lights to turn off. As soon as a command is given to the Multi-Zone Lighting Controller to go to a color, these attached devices will receive a message to go to the corresponding color and brightness.

Please note that different products are pre-programmed to respond to a certain channel. For example, Underwater Lights respond to Zone 1, Down Lights respond to Zone 2 and Spreader Lights respond to Zone 3.

BEST PRACTICES FOR MITIGATING NOISE ISSUES

Noise interface is common in systems with RGB lighting controls and amplified stereo systems. The advanced circuitry in the lighting controller does everything possible to protect from this.

Utilizing installation best practices will further mitigate these issues.

1. Make sure to supply ample gauge power and separate distribution points from stereo power.
2. Run RGB power wires as far as possible from the speaker feeds for the stereo. Run separate bundles where possible.

TROUBLESHOOTING

MFD CONNECTION TROUBLESHOOTING

MY SYSTEM IS NOT CONNECTING:

Remove 4 screws on top of SCM-MFD-BRIDGE. Verify that the blue power light is on. This indicates a bad connection on the 4 pin cable from the lighting controller

Verify that the red and green communication lights are coming on and blinking. This will verify that the Ethernet connection is good, and communication is established.

MUSIC SYNC NOT WORKING

Verify that an appropriate 3.5mm stereo jack is being used and that there is a usable signal.

If a separate output zone is used, verify that the output is enabled and the output is set to a usable volume.

It is not recommended to use a subwoofer output, as certain sync modes require the full audio range.

MY SYSTEM HAS A "BOOT LOADER ERROR"

This is typically a problem with multi-screen installation and indicates that a POE isolator is needed.

SCM-MZ-LC NOT LIGHTING UP

When power is first applied to the lighting controller, the box will flash blue very briefly.

Once it receives a valid control input from a connected controller it will stay blue continuously. If it is not lighting up please double check for correct orientation and reseat the SC-NET cable.

SHADOW-NET® LIGHTS WILL OCCASIONALLY LOCK UP AND STOP RECEIVING MESSAGES

This indicates that there is a noise issue on the Shadow-NET® communication lines. Typically this is caused by insufficient gauge wire feeding one or more Shadow-NET® connected lights.

MY SHADOW-NET® LIGHTS STAY ON

If the connected Shadow-NET ^® lights are not turning off at initial power up then there is a challenge with the Shadow-NET ^® connection.

Check the orange and yellow wire connections are not reversed and are fully connected.
