Operation Mode

Constant Mode

Constant mode offers continuous lighting intensity control. Lighting intensity is controlled

using constant current technique. Brightness can be adjusted from fully off to fully on in the

range of 0 –255.

Strobe Mode

Strobe mode provides short interval triggering for applications that require high intensity and

high precision. An input trigger signal will turn on the lighting output based on pre-set delay

and duration parameters.

There are 4 adjustable strobe parameters available:

Strobe Delay = Delay time between the external input signal and the lighting output

Strobe Width = Duration of the lighting’s turn on time

Output Delay = Delay time between the external input signal and the external output signal

Output Width = Duration of the external output signal’s turn on time

Parameter timings are in the range of 0-9999 which is equivalent to 0-99.99ms (in step of 10us)

Trigger Mode

Trigger mode provides most flexibility for variable timing light output. The light output ON

when input trigger signal received and OFF when no input signal.

Current Multiplier

Current Multiplier setting provides more precise control of lighting intensity for lightings with

different current ratings.

Current Multiplier setting range = 1-10

1 = 10% of max output current (100mA)

2 = 20% of max output current (200mA)

3 = 30% of max output current (300mA)

4 = 40% of max output current (400mA)

5 = 50% of max output current (500mA)

6 = 60% of max output current (600mA)

7 = 70% of max output current (700mA)

8 = 80% of max output current (800mA)

9 = 90% of max output current (900mA)

10 = 100% of max output current (1000mA/1A)

For example: if the lighting’s current rating is 260mA, current multiplier can be set to 3, setting

the maximum output current to 300mA. So the lighting’s intensity can be adjusted from low to

high within the range of 0-255.

If multiplier is set too high, for example 10 (100% of max output = 1A), theadjustable intensity

range for the lighting is only about 0-67. Setting the intensity value to 68 or higher will not

have any effect towards the lighting output brightness.

LC-18 Software

The controller can be controlled using LC-18 software. Connect the controller to computer

with RS232 cable and TCPIP cable.

1. Software Connection :

a. Select COMPORT or TCPIP to connect.

b. Disconnect the software

2. Read and Save function for all slave board :

a. Read all slave board’s parameter from controller.

b. Save all slave board’s parameter into EEPROM.

3. Strobe function for all channel :

a. Strobe all channel once.

b. Repeat strobe all channel (together).

c. Repeat strobe channel by channel.

4. Reset all channel’s parameter to default value.

5. Master board firmware version.

6. Each tab display all the parameters for each slave board.
