Features

This Control Unit is specifically designed to control the light intensity of 

CCS LED Light Units.  It is mainly used to control LED Light Units that 

are used for machine vision and industrial inspections.

Connect 24V DC Light Units and Spotlights. Use up to 4 channels.
The light intensity can be manually controlled with a switch on the front panel, 

or externally controlled using a PLC or machine vision equipment.
Use PWM control to control the 24V DC Light Unit output at a frequency of 125 kHz.
EIA-485 communications can be used for a maximum transmission distance of 30 m with multidrop connections.
Use external trigger inputs to turn Light Units ON and OFF, or to flash the strobe 

(for 24V DC Light Units only).

This product has been designed with full consideration of safety. Incorrect 

usage of the product may result in fire, electric shock, or other serious 

damages. Observe the following precautions.

Do not touch the power cords during 

lightning. This may result in electric shock.

Do not disassemble or modify the product.

Doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

Do not touch the plugs or switches with wet 

hands. Doing so may result in electric shock.

Make sure that the product is free of 

moisture or any liquid. Doing so may result 

in fire or electric shock.

Before connecting or disconnecting cables, 

make sure that the power source is turned 

OFF. Not doing so may result in fire or 

electric shock.

If an abnormal condition occurs, such as 

fuming, heat, smell, or noise, stop using the 

product immediately, turn OFF the power 

source and unplug the power cord. Not 

doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

Do not use user-made light cables. 

Doing so may cause product failure.

Do not place the product in direct sunlight or 

in a high-humidity environment. Doing so 

may result in fire due to internal temperature 

rise.

Always place the product on a stable and flat 

location. Doing so may result in the product 

falling or toppling, which may cause 

malfunction, accidents, or bodily injury.

Do not intentionally short-circuit the positive 

and negative output terminals.

Do not bend cables or jam them between 

objects when wiring. Doing so may cause 

product failure.

Do not wipe the product with volatiles such 

as paint thinner or benzene. Discoloration or 

deterioration of the product surfaces may 

occur.

Do not drop the product or subject it to 

impact. Doing so may cause product failure.

Use a dry cloth to remove dust or other 

foreign matter from the electrodes. Failure to 

do so may result in fire.

Do not connect any Light Units other than 

CCS LED Light Units. Doing so may cause 

overcurrent and the device may overheat or 

ignite.

Plug the power cord directly into a wall 

socket. Using a power strip or connecting 

many loads from one electrical outlet may 

cause fire or electric shock.

Do not bundle product cables with 

high-voltage lines or power lines.

Allow leeway when installing the cables.

Always ground the power cord. Not doing so 

may cause product failure due to static 

electricity destroying electrical components 

including those in the Light Unit.

Use Light Units that are suitable for the 

product ratings. Exceeding the ratings may 

cause product failure.

Make sure that the length of the extension 

cable for light output is no longer than 5 m. 

If the extension cable is longer than 5 m, the 

voltage will drop due to the DC resistance of 

the cable, and the light intensity will 

decrease.

Do not disconnect the power cord or 

disassemble the product during operation. 

Pulling on the cable may damage the cable 

and result in fire or electric shock.

Before moving the product, disconnect all 

connection cables. Damaging the cables 

may result in fire or electric shock.

When mounting products in system racks or 

cases, do not insert the screws more than 

5 mm. Doing so may cause short-circuits in 

internal components.
