Standby Flash Code 58
Standby Flash Code 58 is used with the Main/Standby option to change to flash code
58 [FL(6) 15S] during a
“Main failure” condition.
Low Voltage Lockout
The Low Voltage Lockout option prevents recovery when input voltage drops below
the “Low Voltage Cutoff” level. Power to the unit must be removed in order to return
to normal operation. Note that when the Low Voltage Lockout mode is enabled it is
recommended that Standby Flash Code 58 and Alternate Code During Low Voltage
be disabled.
Alternate Code During Low Voltage
When selected, this option enables an alternate flash code when battery voltage
drops below a user-set level. Note that when Alternate Code During Low Voltage is
enabled it is recommended that Standby Flash Code 58 be disabled.
Communication Filter
When enabled, this option, which is normally not enabled, inhibits the lantern from
listening t
o the sync signal during LED ‘on’ periods. The light needs to be able to
“see” other lights on the sync line in order to establish synchronization. Under
conditions of extreme noise, this option can be selected to minimize false signals.
Before selecting this option, be sure to eliminate other potential noise sources, such
as poor connections. When enabled unnecessarily, the communication filter may
reduce the ability of lights to synchronize.
Low Voltage Cutoff
Configuration of Low-Voltage Cutoff and Alternate Code
By enabling Low-Voltage Cutoff only, the light ceases flashing at a selectable low
voltage and returns to normal operation when the voltage rises above a selectable,
slightly higher voltage.
By enabling both Low-Voltage Cutoff and Alternate Code During Low Voltage, the
light begins flashing the alternate code when voltage is below a selectable low voltage
and ceases flashing at a lower selectable voltage. The light resumes normal
operation when the voltage rises above the Alternate Code during Low Voltage
Threshold.
For Low Voltage Cutoff Only:
Using SignalView, set the low-voltage cutoff level to the lowest voltage at
which the lantern is to flash.
Using SignalView (under Secondary Data,) set the Alternate Code during Low
Battery Threshold to the voltage level for which the system is to return to
normal operation. MaxiHalo II controller adds 0.2 volts for hysteresis. The
Alternate Code during Low Voltage option (under Options) must not be
