8. LC-NG-08 "Fire station"
8.1. Mode of operation
The outputs of the LC-NG-08 control the lights in a fire station, the
warning lights ("flashing blue lights")and sirens of the emergency
vehicles as well as the siren and one or more gates of the fire station.
Parallel to the output at which the servo signal is sent, another output
("gate switch") is switched on and off.
The outputs for the warning lights of the emergency vehicles can be set
either as simple flashing lights (for older emergency vehicles) or as
flashlights (for modern emergency vehicles).
The alarm is triggered either automatically after randomly long pauses
or by a short earth pulse at the switching input.
Use of the switching input

Short earth pulse (via push-button)
Triggering the alarm
Settings on the trim potentiometer
At the trim potentiometer, you set the maximum pause until the next
alarm is automatically triggered. The length of the pauses is shorter in
the left-hand direction of rotation* and longer in the right-hand
direction of rotation.
Note: The actual length of the pauses is randomly controlled, i.e. in
individual cases it may be significantly shorter than when set.
* Note: If the trim potentiometer is set to the left stop, the module goes into test mode when it
is switched on. You must therefore turn the potentiometer a little to the right to set the shortest
possible pause length after you have set it to the left stop.
