Light source and light source controller

Flash controller


A flash controller is a high-performance LED light source controller. Unlike conventional light source controllers, a flash controller switches its output voltage on and off according to a preset pulse width, thereby controlling the LED light source's flashing lighting. When the output voltage is on, it is typically more than twice that of a conventional controller (for example, for a 24VDC LED light source, the output voltage can be as high as 48VDC), and the maximum on-time does not exceed 1000µs. Therefore, a flash controller can significantly increase the instantaneous brightness of the LED light source. At the same time, the shorter the light source's on-time, the internal temperature rise of the LED is suppressed, thereby significantly extending the light source's lifespan.
▶ Application range
The output voltage pulse width (i.e., the light source's on-time) can be set from 1µs to 1000µs, and the pulse width ratio can be set. This increases the instantaneous brightness of the light source by over 300% and extends the light source's service life. It automatically outputs a camera trigger signal and ensures that the camera is triggered to capture images after the light source is turned on. It can operate in external trigger mode, internal trigger mode, and constant-on mode. When the load current exceeds the controller's maximum value or short-circuits, the controller automatically protects itself and stops output. It can communicate with a PC via RS232 or a network port. It offers two mounting options: DIN rail mounting with a ring and screw mounting (with the foot pad removed).

▶ Panel Description: Digital panel display

  • The first digit displays the channel, and pressing the potentiometer switches the channel. 1. When the channel value is 1-4, bits 2-5 display the light source lighting time (1-1000), and rotate the potentiometer to adjust the lighting time. 2. When the channel value is 5, bits 2-5 display 0 for external trigger, 1 for internal trigger, and 2 for constant light. Rotate the potentiometer to switch between internal and external trigger. 3. When the channel value is 6, bits 2-5 display the internal trigger cycle (15-1000ms). Rotate the potentiometer to adjust the cycle size. 4. When the channel value is 7 or 8, it is the third and fourth digits of the IP address. 5. When the channel value is 9, bits 2-5 display L for locked, all adjustments are invalid, and display 0 for unlocked, and all adjustments can be performed normally.
