General Description
The LC-18-OD-4CH-48V controller provides high current short interval strobing for
applications that require high intensity and high precision. The controller consists of 4 channels
with individual settings for each channel. Only Strobe mode is available for this controller.

Operation Mode
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)
** Remark:
Strobe Width is fixed at 10ms maximum, adjustable in the range of 0-1000

Current Multiplier
Current Multiplier setting provides more precise control of lighting intensity for lightings with
different current ratings.
Ex:
Maximum current = 1000mA/1A
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.
7. Display controller part number.
