16.5.1 (4.1) OP WDT

Ethernet communications guard OP WDT (Operator Panel Watchdog Timer)

This searchlight is built for use on long distances and the high-intensity light from the searchlight
can, if set at a narrow beam, cause severe damage to surfaces closer than 1 meter. To avoid
that the searchlight is forgotten with the light on, always use the feature “off and park” when not
using the searchlight.
If however a hardware failure occurs that breaks the Ethernet communication between the box
and operator panel, a safety function will step in and automatically turn off the light within 3
seconds, the OP WDT will also interrupt an ongoing sweep or surveillance activity.


If an OP WDT event has occurred an error message will be displayed in the electrical box and
the alarm relay (CL25/35) will trigger. When communication returns the message will disappear
and the alarm will be reset.

For multiple panel systems: OP WDT will step in only when communication is lost to all panels.

Possible reasons why OP WDT turn off the lights:

The power supply to the operator panel is broken.

The power supply to the Ethernet switch (if any) is broken.

Broken Ethernet cable between electrical box/ Ethernet switch (if any) and operator

panel.

OP WDT is disabled by default, to enable press

OK” button in menu “4.1 OP WDT” screen and

press the

Down” or “Right” button to toggle the function on/off.
