With no external input, the output jack (

T

 pointing away from socket)

provides a TTL compatible pulse from the strobe’s internal oscillator.
If an external input is applied, the output pulse is in sync with the
input pulse. This output pulse may be used to trigger a second
stroboscope synchronously to illuminate larger areas.   Many strobes
can be “daisy chained”.  The output jack of one strobe is connected to
the input jack of the next strobe causing all the strobes to flash together
and be controlled by the first strobe in the chain.  The polarity of the
output pulse can be set in the MENU options.

Reinstall the reflector and then position the front lens in place
matching up the notches on the lens with the two small tabs on
the housing to prevent lens rotation (see Figure 4). Push the tabs
on the front rim outward and press the lens into place.

Fuse

Under normal operating conditions, the fuse within the stroboscope
should never blow.  Examples of abnormal operating conditions would
be foreign materials entering the strobe, such as water, pulp, ink, etc.

The Phaser-Strobe pbx has a resettable fuse, which will reset once
conditions are normal again.
