Step 3 – Establishing a connection:
In the list of strobe controller, choose the device you
want to connect to and press the button
Connect Device
. Alternatively, Ethernet strobe
controller can be reached with their web-interface by typing the configured IP address into the
address field of your web browser (e.g. http://169.254.1.1).
Step 4 – Pre-Configuration:
As soon as the connection was established successfully, the
strobe controller can be configured for the first start. Make sure that the
Running Mode
is set
to OFF, and output voltage and current of each channel do not exceed the limits of the
illumination to connect. After finishing the pre-configuration, the changes must be stored on the
strobe controller by pressing the button
Send & Save
. Subsequent press the button
Disconnect
.
Step 6 – Connect illumination / light head:
Switch OFF the strobe controller and unplug the
power supply. Illuminations or light heads can be connected to the output panel connector(s)
on the backside of the housing, according to connecting schemes in
3.4.2 – Output Connector
(IPSC-Series) and 2.3.3 – LED Output (HPSC-Series).
Step 7 – Connecting an external trigger:
Depending on the strobe controller series and
trigger source, one of the following input wirings can be applied to synchronize the strobe
controller with external trigger sources.
IPSC-Series:
HPSC-Series:
Figure 22: Connecting input trigger of IPSC (left) and HPSC (right) - max. 24V
*IPSC-Series: For trigger source that switches between Hi and Hi-Z state only, it is necessary to apply
a pull-down resistor (R = 1,2kΩ / 0,5W) between trigger source and GND, as shown in
Step 8:
When all connections of Step 6 and 7 have been applied correctly, power the
strobe
controller
and establish a connection via the
ScLibClient
or web-interface. Select the right
Running Mode
for your application and configure the
Trigger Inputs
as well as the
Physical
Outputs
according to your requirements.
Warning:
Output currents over the specification of your illumination can lead to
permanent damage of the illumination. Overdriving should only be done by advanced
users and in pulse mode with appropriately short pulse durations.
