Installing a TwinRay Wired Remote
1.
Connect the 35 foot long extension cable to the connector at the base of the StarBeam.
2.
Make a weather tight connection with the supplied heat shrink tubing or similar method.
3.
Route the extension wire into the cab of the vehicle.
4.
Select a mounting location for the remote bulkhead connector and drill a 1” diameter hole.
5.
Use the connector to locate and drill two appropriate sized holes to secure the connector to
the mounting surface with two #4 flathead thread cutting screws or machine screws and nuts
(not provided).
6.
Connect the extension cable to the back of the connector and the coil cable to the front.
7.
Connect the coil cable to the wired remote.
Synchronizing a TwinRay Wireless Transmitter
If your StarBeam was ordered with a TwinRay wireless transmitter, it is factory synchronized to the
StarBeam. If you wish to add additional transmitters or synchronize the transmitter to additional
StarBeam or NightRay units, you can synchronize them using the following procedure:
1.
Disconnect power from the StarBeam unit.
2.
Press the A/B push button to select either the green or red transmitter code.
3.
Press and hold
an UP or DOWN
and
a LEFT or RIGHT pushbuttons.
4.
Restore power to the StarBeam unit.
5.
Release the pushbuttons when the lamp turns on.
The lamp will flash slowly to indicate a new transmitter ID has been synchronized or flash
rapidly if the receiver already recognized the transmitter ID.
The red and green transmitter codes can be synchronized to the same StarBeam unit.
To erase all transmitters from the receiver, press the pushbutton on the receiver board while
power is applied.
NEW!
Changing the Default UP/DOWN and/or LEFT/RIGHT Control
(on models with a serial number of 140042 or higher)
If you wish to change the default UP/DOWN and/or LEFT/RIGHT direction, you can toggle them using the
following procedure. If using a wireless transmitter, first make sure it is synchronized to the receiver.
1.
Disconnect power from the StarBeam unit.
2.
To reverse the default UP/DOWN direction,
press and hold
the UP
and
DOWN pushbuttons or
to reverse the default LEFT/RIGHT direction,
press and hold
the LEFT
and
RIGHT pushbuttons.
3.
Restore power to the StarBeam unit.
4.
Release the pushbuttons when the lamp starts to flash.
The lamp will flash and the light will rotate to indicate the change has been accepted.
The change is stored in the receiver and will apply to all wireless and wired remotes
connected to the light. If the wireless transmitters are erased from the receiver, the receiver
will retain the latest default directions.
Troubleshooting
If your StarBeam stops operating, please check for the following conditions:
1.
Check the batteries in the TwinRay wireless remote.
2.
The inrush current for an incandescent lamp is typically ten to fifteen times the operating
current and an HID switching power supply inrush current can be even greater. This high
inrush current can cause a severe voltage drop if the power feed wires are long, under size or
the power supply is weak. This may cause the receiver circuit to enter a low voltage shutdown
state. It is recommended to only turn on the lights while the vehicle is running. The power to
the StarBeam needs to be cycled off and back on to reset the shutdown circuit.
3.
The motor control circuit is overcurrent and over temperature protected in the event the light
is jammed against an imovable object. The power to the StarBeam will need to be cycled off
and back on to reset the overcurrent/over temperature circuit.
