1. LED Status Feedback System, Using
the Remote and Operating Modes
There are three, coloured LEDs visible on the base of the PELCO
illuminator. The three LEDs provide important operating and
status information. The infra-red receiver for the Remote Control
commands is also on the base of the unit – and the Remote
Control should be pointed in this direction during programming.
Most functions respond immediately to pressing the required
button – however two functions require the button to be held
for 4 seconds continuously to avoid accidental programming:
1.Restore Factory Default and 2.Disable Remote Control Set-up.
The Remote Control is designed to operate at distances up to
8 metres.
The status information provided by each of these LEDs differs
depending on which of the two operating modes the PELCO
illuminator is in: (A) Programming OR (B) Normal Operating.
1A. Programming Mode
On powering up the illuminator, it automatically enters
programming mode to allow the user to adjust set-up and
operation. The programming mode automatically times out
after 4 weeks or until the user actively disables the programming
mode - see ‘Disable Remote Control Set-up’ (section 7).
During Programming mode, the LEDs indicate the following
status:
• SOLID GREEN: Power Applied
• FLASHING GREEN: Remote control IR receiver problem
• FLASHING AMBER: Indicates unit is in programming
mode
• SOLID AMBER: Indicates that a valid command
is being received
• SOLID RED: Internal LED Fault Detected
• FLASHING RED: Voltage supply problem detected
*(Please note – once the voltage problem has been corrected, the
user must disable remote control set-up or power the unit on and off
to stop the red status LED flashing)
All functions of the Remote Control are available in
Programming Mode.
