Special Features
(excludes S-Series single flash only and H-Series high-power lights)
Pattern Programming
The circuits now found in the 250A, 250C,
and 250S series lights have a jumper on
them allowing the end user to select the
desired flash pattern (singleflash,
doubleflash, or quadflash). If you wish to
change the pattern, activate the light and
follow the instructions below.
1. The Pattern Select Jumper
is stored on pins 1 & 2.
2. To change the pattern, remove the
jumper from pins 1 & 2, momentarily
place it over pins 2 & 3, then
remove it. The pattern should
advance to the next.
3. Continue to touch and release the jumper to pins 2 & 3 to cycle through the patterns:
singleflash à doubleflashàquadflash
4. Once you have selected a pattern, replace the jumper on pins 1 & 2.
Please Note: Some circuits may have only two pins. For those circuits, store the jumper on one of the pins, and
use the jumper on the two pins for programming.
High/Low Jumper
Mag mount models will come with a jumper that automatically defaults the light to High
Power. To only run on Low Power, move the High/Low Select Jumper from pins 1 & 2 to
pins 2 & 3.
LED Indicator
These lights also have an LED Diagnostic Indicator. The LED indicator is designed to
flash when the strobe tube should be flashing. If a strobe light is not working,
troubleshooting becomes easy with this new LED. Simply examine the circuit when power
is applied to it. If the strobe tube is not flashing, but the LED is flashing, you have a bad
strobe tube. If the LED is not flashing, the circuit is either not receiving the proper voltage,
or the circuit has failed.
