Operation Manual Fiber-Lite ® A241 / A242 DC REGULATED FIBER OPTIC ILLUMINATORS A Product of Dolan Jenner Industries INTRODUCTION The A-241 and A-242 series is a family of 150 Watt, highly regulated, DC powered quartz halogen fiber optic illuminators. The A-241 and A-242 illuminators are designed for a wide range of applications from laboratory and industrial illumination applications to precise machine vision illumination.

DIGITAL MODEL REMOTE INTENSITY CONTROL The Digital Remote Intensity Control uses an 8 bit, latching, parallel input Digital to Analog converter. The Digital Remote Intensity Control is NOT Centronics parallel compatible. Refer to the pinout below. PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE DIGITAL INTERFACE Digital Remote Control - Pin Assignments PIN DESCRIPTION 1 +5v 10 mA max. 2 DB0 (LSB) 3 DB1 4 DB2 5 DB3 6 DB4 7 DB5 8 DB6 9 DB7 (MSB) Establish the digital control code onto pins DB0(LSB) to DB7(MSB).
PAGE 3
ANALOG MODEL REMOTE INTENSITY CONTROL Analog Remote Control - Pin Assignments (Models A241PA and A242PA) The Remote Intensity Control is located on Pin 3 of the Remote Interface. When the PANEL/REMOTE switch is in the REMOTE position the intensity is controlled by the signal applied to Pin 3. The input signal must be limited to a 0 to +5 volt DC signal. A negative voltage or a voltage in excess of 5 volts will cause the lamp to run at maximum intensity potentially shortening lamp life.
