Operation
4.1.1
Control of Operation
Each time the membrane switch (Figure 1-10) is pressed for about 1 sec it changes sequentially mode
of operation as follows:
•
The MLED switches on at 100% power
•
The MLED dims to 20% power
•
The MLED switches off, ALED switches on
•
The ALED switches off, ELED switches on
Next time the membrane switch is pressed the cycle starts again. If the membrane switch is pressed
for longer than 2 seconds all diodes switch off. To switch the lamp on the membrane switch (Figure
1-10) must be pressed again. If the membrane switch is pressed for longer than 10 seconds (the
MLED will signal it by a single flash) the lamp becomes ready for the battery capacity measuring
procedure. The lamp exits this mode after 30 seconds if it is not placed in the charger or after the next
press of the membrane switch. Once the lamp is inserted into the charger within 30 seconds from
entering capacity measuring mode an internal flag is activated and it is only deactivated once the
battery is fully charged. If removed before the charge cycle is completed the charge indicator of the
charger will indicate that the capacity test was interrupted.
IMPORTANT NOTES!
•
During charging mode the membrane switch’s functions are disabled.
•
The light intensity and functions of each 1 second presses can be factory programmed
to suit Client’s requirements.

Functioning of the Cable Continuity & Voltage Monitoring
Microcontroller controls the connection continuity. In case of cable (Figure 1-5) breakage, the
Emergency ELED switches on. The ELED is located in the cover of the battery casing.
In addition to the monitoring of the cable’s continuity, the battery voltage is also monitored.
Depending on the voltage values, and cable condition the microprocessor indicates with the flashing
ELED as follows:
