External Marker Lights
For installations that require external marker beacon lights, there are three outputs that can drive 12-Volt
lamps only. The external output lamps are driven high (typically +7.0 VDC
4.0 VDC unloaded, at MAX
brightness) when active. Maximum source current per lamp is 125mA. Voltage varies with photocell dim-
ming.
2.6.3
Middle Marker Sense
A Middle Marker Sense output signal is available from the PMA8000C to certain flight control systems.
This function will not operate during the test mode. This output will go to +4.5 VDC (
1.0 VDC) when a
valid Middle Marker signal is received. This output is J1, pin 39.

Adjustments
The PMA8000C is factory adjusted to accommodate the typical requirements for most aircraft configura-
tions. There are three adjustments in the top cover that allow the installer to tailor the specific functions.
