LED array power can be configured using SignalView™ to adjust output as a
percent of full power (0 to 100%, in steps of 1%). If using the 4-position power
switch, S5, instead of SignalView, there is a choice of 16 different power levels (see
Table 4 Power Selection Table, below).

CAUTION! An incorrect power setting can ruin the LED array.

Configuring as Backup to a Rotating Beacon
The Nova-65 SC can be configured to act as a backup to a rotating beacon using
SignalView™ to select the Main/Standby option and setting the address and flash
codes as described below.
Setting Rotation Period
For rotating beacons, the lens rotation period is controlled by the beacon’s motor
control circuit. The period is also configured into the Nova-65 SC for faster
coordination of the two flashes upon failure of the rotating beacon. Use
SignalView™ to set the rotation period. Alternatively, use S4-2 through S4-5
according to the table below. (See Figure 10 Internal Wiring Diagram for the location
of S4 switch on the MaxiHalo II controller control circuit.)
