Table 3 Default Option Table
Rotating Beacon
This option is enabled when the Nova-65 SC is a standby to a rotating beacon. Note
that the option to use the Alternate Code During Low Voltage is not recommended
when the rotating beacon option is set.
Invert Fail Output
This option changes the fail signal from open (high voltage) to closed (low voltage)
during normal operation.
Main/Standby
This option is selected when two lanterns are paired as main and standby units. The
MaxiHalo II controller can support up to 8 pairs (16 units). In this configuration, the
standby unit remains inhibited as long as the main unit is functional. Failure of any
main unit automatically enables its corresponding standby unit. Set Main/Standby
configurations as follows:
Use SignalView to enable the Main/Standby feature for all units.
Set flash codes the same for all units.
Set Main units with an odd address. For example 1, 3, 5, etc.
Set Standby units with an even address number. For example 0, 2, 4, etc.
Units 0 and 1 are paired, units 2 and 3 are paired, units 4 and 5 are paired,
etc.
Note that when operating in Main/Standby mode it is recommended that Low
Voltage Lockout and Alternate Code During Low Voltage be disabled.
