Description
Jump to: What’s Included | Shutter Compatibility | Specifications | Downloads
The Uniblitz VMM-D4 is a four-channel shutter driver capable of independently controlling up to four shutters. This compact design puts four complete, individual shutter drivers into a single, streamlined package. Active high-level logic inputs allow fully independent shutter control, while one single input will activate all channels simultaneously. Active low-level logic outputs are available to monitor the status of each individual synchronization system output. One output is available to monitor when all shutter synchronization system circuits are active.
See the VMM-D4 User Manual for additional information regarding this device.
The VMM-D4 is RoHS compliant. It is not available for sale to the European Union. Please contact us for questions.

Front Panel Layout
Simple and straightforward controls allow the VMM-D4 to be easy to use and configure. LED indicators reveal each shutter’s status at a glance. Four fuse holders with .6A slow blow fuse, accessible at the front panel for ease or replacement. N.O./N.C. switches allow manual operation.
| Front Panel | |
|---|---|
| SHUTTER FUSE (1) | 5 x 20mm, 0.6A, “T” time-lag fuse to protect the shutter output – one for each channel. |
| N.O/N.C Switch (2) | The position of this switch determines shutter status BEFORE a trigger signal is received by the VMM-D3 – one for each channel. |
| SYNC.ACTIVE LED (3) | A green LED indicator that indicates status of Solid State Synchronization output – one for each channel. |
| DRIVER ACTIVE LED (4) | A red LED that indicates when the internal shutter driver circuit input has an active signal present – one for each channel. |
| Power Indicator (5) | A red LED indicates that power is applied to the unit. |
Rear Panel Layout
All main input/output functions can be accessed at the VMM-D4 rear panel, including the 115/230VAC input. Manual switching as required. Additionally, (2) 6-pin pluggable terminal strips allow for easy termination to input (active high) and output (active low) signals.
| Rear Panel | |
|---|---|
| AC Input Module (1) | AC input via IEC male receptical for AC line cord (supplied). Additional functions are described on page(s) 9-11, page #15 and page 32 in the VMM-D3/D4 user manual. |
| OUTPUT CONTROL (2) | Provides Electronic Sync. signal output from each shutter channel. Output indicates state of shutter’s Electronic Sync., if shutter is so equipped. One output for each channel. See terminal strip layout in VMM-D3/D4 User Manual page(s) 15-19. Active Low outputs. Output Terminal #5 – Active Low when all Sync. outputs go low. |
| INPUT CONTROL (3) | Provides Active High control for each channel. Input TTL high – shutter open, input TTL low – shutter close. Terminal #5 – Active High, input TTL high – all shutters open, input TTL low – all shutters close. See terminal strip layout in VMM-D3/D4 User Manual page(s) 15-19. |
| LO/HI Select Slide Switch (4) | “HI” position allows the selection of appropriate pulse energy for 35 mm and larger shutters. “LO” Position for shutters 25 mm and smaller aperture.One for each channel. |
| Shutter Output Channel #1-#4 (5) | Provides connection to shutter used via 7-pin female WirePro™ connector. One for each channel. |
