qualified technician check the device once a year and once before you bring it into service.

installation material to be used… Have the material and the device itself checked regularly. Do not
attempt to install the device yourself if you lack these qualifications as improper installation may
result in injuries.
• Adjust the desired inclination angle via the mounting bracket and tighten the bracket screws.

5.2 Lamp Power Setting
The LX301 can be set at high or low power setting. The high power setting provides you maximum flash
intensity, the low power setting reduces the output by approximately 50% and extends the lamp lifetime.
Select the desired setting through DIP switch 6. The setting applies regardless of the other switch
setting.
