ONNECTION

Point the stroboscope at the object to be observed.
On the bottom of the stroboscope are 3 threaded
holes, which allow you to affix it to the equipment
to be observed or a stand (available as an option):

• Center = 1 x 1/4” threaded hole
• Right and left, with a total distance of 60mm = 2 x M5 threaded holes

The stationary stroboscope has two
identical assigned sockets (located on
the back of the unit) for the combined
input of trigger signal and supply 
voltage. The assignment of plug 
contacts is shown in Fig. 1.

CAUTION:

Please make the 

connections in accordance 
with the wiring diagram (Fig. 1). 
The trigger input is potential-free. 
The potential-free input is suitable 
for PNP and NPN signals. A matching
plug for these input sockets is includ-
ed with the stroboscope.

RECOMMENDATION:

Use shielded

cable to connect the trigger signal.

CAUTION:

Do not trigger the stroboscope with signals above 12,500 FPM.

4.1  Typical connection examples:

Please take connection examples from Figures 2 to 5. Note that you will
need optional accessories for some of the examples (stationary strobo-
scope, AC Adapter, sensor, etc.)

Trigger signal from optional 
stroboscope control unit, 
supply voltage from optional 
AC Adapter.

The voltage is either supplied by the
strobe power supply unit (available 
as an option) or the equipment being
observed.

NOTE:

When using the LS-5-12000 stroboscope without a 
stroboscope control unit, the stroboscope flashes with the 
trigger signal of the connected equipment. This signal cannot 
be influenced without a stroboscope control unit.
