∙SW3 – (Figure 2-11, Item 3, Page 2-26) Used to specify the ID number for the Flashhead. Each Flashhead must be set with a unique ID number as indicated on the installation drawings. There is a diagram next to the switch showing the values for the switch. The ID number is the total of the values of the switches set to OFF (negative binary). For example, to set ID #10, set SW3-2 (value 2) OFF (down) and SW3-4 (value 8) OFF (down) for a total of 10 (2+8).
§SW3-1 – Set to OFF (down) for value 1
§SW3-2 – Set to OFF (down) for value 2
§SW3-3 – Set to OFF (down) for value 4
§SW3-4 – Set to OFF (down) for value 8
§SW3-5 – Set to OFF (down) for value 16
∙SW4 – (Figure 2-11, Item 5, Page 2-26) This is used for the terminating resistor on the communications line.
§SW4-1 – Set to ON (up) for terminating resistor. This should be set ON only for the Flashhead where the communication lines are terminated. In a typical installation, the communications lines are terminated at the Master Controller and the upper most Flashhead. In systems with an AOL, the AOL is typically the upper most Flashhead. In systems without an AOL, any one but only one of the Flashheads at the top level can be set to ON. For all others, set to OFF. If the system is being installed in stages as the tower is erected, SW4-1 should be set ON for one of the flashheads at the highest installed level. As additional flashheads are added at higher levels, adjust the configuration by setting SW4-1 to OFF in the previous flashhead and set SW4-1 to ON for one of the flashheads at the highest installed level.
2.2.2.3Flashtube Installation
The Flashheads are shipped from the factory without the flashtubes installed to prevent damage during shipping. Install the flashtubes per the following procedure:
1.If Flashhead is already wired to AC power: Shut off the power to the system by opening the main AC power circuit breakers.
2.Release the Flashhead cover latches.
3.Swing the cover open, exercising caution not to damage the glass face or the gasket.
4.Unpack the flashtube. Do not touch the glass envelope - contamination from a fingerprint will degrade the reliability of the flashtube.
5.Holding the flashtube by its metal ends, center it in the reflector assembly and snap it into place. Make sure the red mark on the flashtube matches the red mark on the socket assembly.
6.Attach the fast-on connector at each end of the flashtube to each socket assembly. Make sure wires are not twisted - the metal to glass bond is fragile.
