COMMANDER SEARCHLIGHT -
INSTALLATION AND USER MANUAL
1. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The Tranberg Commander Searchlight uses a serial communication net-
work to control and monitor the searchlights. This makes it possible to
freeely choose and combine the number of searchlights and panels. All
panels can control all searchlights, one at a time, by using selection but-
tons on the panel.
The communication network is connected as a bus topology, i.e. the com-
munication cable is connected from unit to unit as a chain. In that way,
all units can communicate with every other unit, and can listen to every
message sent over the network. Each unit connected to a bus must be
uniquely identified by a number (address). This address is set either by
thumbwheels, or programmed and stored in internal non-volatile memory.
One of the units has to control the communication on the bus. The
unit performing this function is called a master, and in the Commander
Searchlight system this function is assigned to the panel with address ‘0’.
When the master is powered up it will check what units are present on the
bus by querying each unit. If one unit is not powered up in this phase, and
thus does not answer the query, it will be regarded as not-present and will
not be able to communicate with the other units on the bus. It is therefore
important that all searchlights are powered up before the panels.
SEARCHLIGHT MOTION CONTROL:
The Commander Searchlights are equipped with positional sensors for both
motors/axes. This makes it possible to let the searchlight automatically move
to pre-defined positions, and also results in a smooth, controlled motion.
The searchlights can rotate more than one full revolution, approx. 370°, and
the end stop is located at the connection box. The vertical movement is from
approx. 20° upwards to approx. 30° downwards.
TYPES OF SEARCHLIGHTS / LIGHT SOURCES:
Available light sources:
•
Halogen has a wider, long range beam. Warm-white colour. Is
powered directly by 230VAC.
•
Xenon has a narrow, extra long range beam. Daylight colour, part
of the spectrum is ultraviolet (UV) making it useful for seeing ice
(visual ice detection). Needs a separate power supply and
cabling.
•
HRI (metal-halide) has a high light output with daylight colour, re
sembling a xenon light. Has some restrictions regarding power
on/off timing (reach full light output after 1 – 2 minutes on-time).
Needs a separate ballast between 230VAC and lamp.
