6.2  Flash duration 

DIP switches named 

FLASH DUR 1, 2

 select the Flash duration. The Flash duration tells the CSW how long 

each flash is.  

 

(off,off) Selects 100ms flash duration. (1/10 of a second) 

 

(on,off) Selects 250ms flash duration. (¼ of a second) 

 

(off,on) Selects 500ms flash duration. (½ of a second) 

 

(on,on) Selects CASA compliant flash duration (Duty cycle: 2/3 ON, 1/3 OFF) 

IMPORTANT: Only use Steady Burn, 20 FPM, 30FPM, 40 FPM or 60 FPM base sequences with the CASA 
compliant flash duration setting! Other base sequences may cause undesired operation. 

6.3  Flash mode 

DIP switches named 

FLASH MODE 1, 2

 select the flash mode. The flash mode setting effects the method 

with which the flashes are directed to the outputs.  

 

(off,off) All enabled outputs flash together. 

6.4  Test mode 

DIP switch named 

TEST MODE

 selects the test mode. Test mode makes CSW-DCW system testing easier. 

Set the test-mode DIP switch to ON to enter test mode. In test mode output channel 1 can set ON from the 
Option 1 DIP. Option 2 DIP turns on the channel 2. Same applies to Option 3,4 DIP switches and output 
channels 3,4. In test mode, the CSW-DCW shortens the photocell timing periods. By physically blocking the 
photocell all the channels are set to night mode with a short delay. 

After using test mode, turn off the Option 1-4 DIP switches. If they are not off, the CSW will not function 
normally. 

 

 

 

 

In production environment, use test mode with appropriate caution. 

 

6.5  Photocell sensitivity 

DIP switches named 

PHOTOCELL 1, 2 

select the photocell sensitivity.  

 

(off,off) Photocell operation disabled 

 

(on,off) Photocell enabled, disables outputs if light level above 400 Lux. 

 

(off,on) Photocell enabled, disables outputs if light level above 800 Lux. 

 

(on,on) Photocell enabled, disables outputs if light level above 1600 Lux.
