8.3 External Power Supply/Charger

The external power supply/charger (PSC-pbxU) can also be used to

run the stroboscope continuously from the AC mains (115/230 Vac).

To power the strobe with the external power supply/charger (PSC-

pbxU):

1. Plug the power supply/charger cable into the recharger socket

(located below the display panel behind the handle).

2. Plug the power supply/charger into an AC mains wall outlet.

3. Press (and lock) the trigger switch to operate. If the trigger switch

is not pressed, the unit will start charging.

8.4 Battery Disposal

Prior to disposing of the Phaser-Strobe pbx, the user must remove

the Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries. To do this, remove the lens,

reflector and lamp as detailed in the Lamp Replacement section. This

will expose four (4) screws that must be removed so the reflector

housing can be dismantled. There are four (4) additional screws in the

case half opposite the input and output jacks that must be removed.

The case halves can now be separated, exposing the batteries. Remove

the cables from the batteries and place tape over the battery terminals

to prevent them from shorting. The batteries should be sent to a

recycling center or returned to the factory. The rest of the parts may

now be disposed of.

The ALT FUNCTION button toggles ALT. in the display. When ALT. is

displayed, the buttons will perform their secondary function listed in

the lower section of each button. It also changes how the tuning knob

works.

2.0 PREPARATION FOR USE

The Strobe may be hand held or mounted on a tripod or other user supplied

bracket using the ¼-20 UNC bushing at the base of the handle.

2.1 Power

The Phaser-Strobe pbx has internal rechargeable batteries and may

also be powered by an external AC power supply (PSC-pbxU). If

using the internal batteries, the unit should be charged before use (see

section 8.2 Charging the Batteries). The actual operating time of the

stroboscope will depend on the flash rate and duty cycle of operation.

The strobe can also be run continuously from the AC mains with the

power supply supplied (PSC-pbxU, see section 8.3 External Power

Supply/Charger).

2.2 Input / Output Connections

The Phaser-Strobe pbx has input and output jacks on the left side of

the stroboscope. These can be used for external triggering or

synchronization (daisy chaining two or more strobes). These jacks

accept 1/8" (3.5mm) phone plugs (input – stereo, output – mono).

The input and output are TTL compatible. See Figures 2 and 3 for

connector connection detail.

by no flash and the display shows “LO BAT”. At this time the

batteries must be recharged (section 8.2 Charging the Batteries) or

Supply/Charger). Remember to release the trigger switch.

8.2 Charging the Batteries

The unit may be recharged at any time. You do not need to wait until

the low battery condition is indicated.

To charge the Phaser-Strobe pbx with the power supply/charger:

1. Release the trigger so the strobe is off.

2. Plug the recharger cable into the recharger socket (located below

the display panel behind the handle).

3. Plug the recharger into an AC mains wall outlet (115/230 Vac).

CAUTION: Use of rechargers other than the one supplied

(PSC-pbxU) will damage the stroboscope and

void the warranty.

When charging, the strobe will indicate CHRGE in the bottom right of the

display. The recharger will fast charge the batteries for about 4-5

hours and then trickle charge the batteries.

Allow the recharger to charge the batteries until the display shows

DONE for peak battery life performance. If the batteries are not charged

to 100% regularly, the batteries will lose capacity.

The optional ROS-P (Remote Optical Sensor), MT-190P (Magnetic),

or IRS-P (Infrared) sensors may also be used to trigger the unit.

NOTE: When using external sensors that are powered by the Phaser-

Strobe pbx, e.g. Remote Optical Sensor (ROS-P), the sensor

must be plugged in before the stroboscope is turned on, or

the remote sensor may not be powered up.

The input jack (Spointing into socket) enables an external signal to

trigger the strobe. Inserting a plug into the input jack will automatically

put the strobe into the External Mode. When the plug is removed, the

strobe will be put back into the Internal Mode. The Internal Mode can

be forced by pressing the INPUT button. The polarity of the input

pulse can be set in the MENU options.

8.0 BATTERY AND POWER SUPPLY

SPECIFICS

The Phaser-Strobe pbx is fitted with rechargeable NiMH (Nickel Metal

Hydride) batteries. These batteries contain fewer toxic metals than NiCd

(Nickel Cadmium) and are currently classified “environmentally friendly”.

They also have 30% more capacity than NiCd batteries of the same size.

Like NiCds, NiMH batteries are prone to self-discharge - 10 to 15% of

charge is lost in the first 24 hours then continues at a rate of 0.5 to 1% per

day. For maximum performance, charge the batteries just prior to use.

When not in use, the batteries should be charged at least every three months,

otherwise the battery capacity will be reduced or the batteries may become

unusable.

Charge the batteries before use and allow 3-5 cycles of charging and

discharging for batteries to reach full capacity.

The enclosure contains control electronics to properly and safely charge the

batteries. Never remove the batteries from the enclosure and attempt to

charge externally. Always use the charger supplied (PSC-pbxU).

8.1 Low Battery Indication

When the batteries are charged, there will be no battery indication.

When the batteries are low, the Low Battery icon will blink in the

display. The strobe may still be used for a short time.

Low Battery Icon = Outline blinking (very little time left)

The strobe has a protection feature that prevents the strobe from

operating if the battery voltage is too low. This condition is indicated

With no external input, the output jack (Tpointing away from socket)

provides a TTL compatible pulse from the strobe’s internal oscillator.

If an external input is applied, the output pulse is in sync with the

input pulse. This output pulse may be used to trigger a second

stroboscope synchronously to illuminate larger areas. Many strobes

can be “daisy chained”. The output jack of one strobe is connected to

the input jack of the next strobe causing all the strobes to flash together

and be controlled by the first strobe in the chain. The polarity of the

output pulse can be set in the MENU options.

3.0 MENU

The strobe has a Menu which allows the user to select settings such as

number of decimal places, backlight on or off, positive or negative edge for

input and output signal, and input blanking on or off.

To enter the MENU:

1. Press the ALT FUNCTION button and then the MENU button.

2. SETUP and the menu option will be displayed.

3. Turn the tuning knob to cycle through the main menu options.

4. Once the desired menu option is displayed, press the MENU button to

select it. Press any other button to cancel.

5. Turn the tuning knob to edit the menu option setting.

6. Press the MENU button to save your changes. Press any other button

to cancel.

7. Press any button other than MENU to exit the Main Menu.

8. DONE will be displayed.

4. Reinstall the reflector and then position the front lens in place

matching up the notches on the lens with the two small tabs on

the housing to prevent lens rotation (see Figure 4). Push the tabs

on the front rim outward and press the lens into place.

7.2 Fuse

Under normal operating conditions, the fuse within the stroboscope

should never blow. Examples of abnormal operating conditions would

be foreign materials entering the strobe, such as water, pulp, ink, etc.

The Phaser-Strobe pbx has a resettable fuse, which will reset once

conditions are normal again.

4.0 OPERATION

To turn on the stroboscope, depress and hold the trigger. The trigger may be

locked in position using the side locking button. To lock the stroboscope

on, depress the trigger as far as it will go and then press the locking button.

Once the locking button is set you may release the trigger and the trigger will

be held in place. To unlock the stroboscope, simply depress the trigger and

then release.

There are five operating modes for the Phaser-Strobe pbx. These are Internal,

External Input, External Phase Delay, External Time Delay, and Auto (Virtual

RPM). All but the Internal Mode require an external input signal.

In the Internal Mode the knob adjusts the flash rate. In the External

Input Mode an external signal is used to trigger the flash and the knob has

no effect. The External Delay Modes (Phase, Time and Auto) enable the

user to vary the stopped motion image at any point in the cycle without

having to move the trigger source location.

4.1 Internal Mode - Standard Strobe Operation

In the Internal Mode the stroboscope generates it’s own signals and

functions like a tunable stroboscope. The strobe is in the Internal

Mode when nothing is plugged into the input jack or when manually

set using the INPUT button.

615

The stroboscope is designed to discharge the internal high voltages

within 30 seconds. However, caution should be exercised when replacing

the lamp.

The lamp can be replaced by using just a pocket screwdriver. It is not

necessary to remove any screws to replace the lamp.

To change the lamp:

1. Push apart the two tabs on the side of the reflector housing and

remove the lens using a small screwdriver to help pry one tab and

lift the lens. Take care not to pry the tab any more than is necessary

to free the lens. The reflector is held in place by the front lens and

will come loose, but it is not necessary to remove the reflector.

2. Hold the lamp with a cloth between your forefinger and thumb

and rock it back and forth gently while pulling out. Do not attempt

to rotate the lamp. The lamp is socketed and will come out easily

when pulled straight out.

WARNING: Do NOT touch the new lamp with bare fingers.

3. The lamps are polarized and must be put into the socket matching

polarity. Using a lint free cloth, match up the red dot on the

plug with the red dot on the socket and gently rock the lamp

while pushing it into place (see Figure 4). Make sure the lamp is

in straight and centered in the reflector hole.

CAUTION: Do NOT allow the reflector to contact the lamp.
