SmartFlash Arrowboard Controller Installation & Operation Manual 81 Texaco Road Mechanicsburg, PA 17050 717-691-8007 717-697-0813 FAX www.trafcon.com Revised: March, 2003 The Basics There are two variations of the SmartFlash controller. Vehicle mounted units consist of two parts, the remote control head, which includes a keypad mounted within a black enclosure and is equipped with a mounting bracket. The second part, the controller, is a plain black box, with mounting ears, and equipped with four receptacles. The controller also houses most of the electronics. Trailer mounted units consist of a controller unit with the keypad mounted within. Main Features Features common to both controllers include the following: • Solid state circuitry • Short circuit protected output circuitry • Polarity protected circuitry • Keypad operation with back lighting • Ability to “hot-swap” controls and plugs • Intensity and battery monitoring • Automatic dimming • Manual dimming (special option) • Automatic raise/lower operation (optional) • Support for electric and hydraulic actuators • Low battery warning (LED display alternates between mode and “LB”) • Audible confirmation of keyboard operation • Text and graphic markings 1 Operating Instructions Controller Layout The “On and Off” Buttons The ON and OFF buttons work as expected, when the Arrowboard is turned off the main positive (common) feed to the Arrowboard is turned off and the current draw of the system is about 10mA. There is also a power LED that is on when the Arrowboard is turned on. Lamp Sequence Control Buttons The “Select Mode” button is used to scroll through the selectable sequences. Each time this button is pressed the LED display on the controller or remote will scroll to the next sequence. When in this mode the display will flash rapidly. 2 The “Enter” button is used to set the “new” sequence as the displayed sequence. Once this button has been pressed the sequence on the Arrowboard will change to the ‘new’ sequence. Other Buttons “Toggle Display” button. This button is used to change the “bulb brightness and battery level display” between its two modes. Each time it is pressed it toggles to the other mode. Bulb brightness and Battery level Display. This display gives accurate readings of both bulb brightness and battery voltage levels. MODE 1 Bulb Brightness. This mode displays the level of brightness that the bulbs on the Arrowboard are illuminated too. The scale is from 10% to 100% and is marked above the display. MODE 2 Battery Voltage. This mode displays the voltage level of the power source. The scale is from 10 to 14 volts and is displayed underneath the display. The two readings are displayed independently; the operator can alternate between the two by pressing the “Toggle display” button. The current mode of the display is shown by the display indication LEDs; these are located to the right of the “Toggle Display” button. 3 Function Buttons (Optional) • Auto/manual dimming control: Holding both the “brightness down” and “brightness up” optional buttons down for approximately five seconds results in a change from auto to manual dimming, or vice versa. This procedure will not work when in “battery level” mode, or if the optional buttons have not been configured. Option Stickers “Lamp Brightness UP” button: Used to proceed upwards through the brightness options 1-10, and Auto. “Lamp Brightness DOWN” button: Used to proceed downwards through the brightness options 1-10, and Auto. “Sign UP” button: Used to move the Arrowboard into the up position. “Sign Down” button: Used to move the Arrowboard into the down position. 4 Display Features The “Arrowboard Sequence Display” is the main display on the controller. The primary purpose of this display is to show a flashing sequence that is identical to that on the arrowboard, this is the “real” sequence. Once the “Select Mode” button has been pressed the flashing “real” sequence disappears and a “new” sequence will appear on the display, this sequence flashes at twice the rate of the “real” sequence. Once a “new” sequence is shown on the display it will remain there until one of the following occurs: 1) The “Select Mode” button is pressed again, in this case the “new” sequence will scroll to the next “new” sequence 2) The “Enter” button is pressed, in this case the controller sends a change sequence request to the “arrowboard driver” which then changes the sequence, which is displayed on the arrowboard. At this point the “new” sequence on the controller display will begin to flash slower and become the “real” sequence. If no buttons are pressed for a time period of 5 seconds the “new” sequence will disappear and the “real” sequence will be displayed The “Auto Dimming” LED: This is located just above the “Bulb brightness and battery level” display. Its purpose is to alert the operator when the Arrowboard is set in auto-dimming mode. The “Sign Up” LED: This is located above option button four. It is on when the Arrowboard is in the UP position. 5 20 Way D-3100 Plug TOP Smart Flash MB Series Controller 10 Way D-3100 Plug (2) 4 Way D-5200 Plug Smart Flash MB Series Remote 10 Way D-3100 Plu g (2) 4 Way D-5200 Plug 0 Way D-3100 Smart Flash TC Series Controller 6 7 Controller D-3100 Plug Wiring Circuit Wire Color Gauge 1 Red 16 2 Red 18 3 White 18 4 White/Red 22 5 Option 6 NC 7 Black 18 8 Green 18 9 White/Green 22 10 Option Remote Cable 4 Way Plug Wiring Circuit Wire Color Gauge 1 Red 18 2 Black 18 3 White 18 4 Green 18 NOTE: Use only shielded cable. 8 Top Plug Pin Wire Color Gauge Function 1 Green/Yellow or White 16 16 Actuator – Positive 2 Black/Yellow or Black 16 16 Actuator - Negative 3 Red 14 Power – Positive 4 Orange 14 Common to Lamps Bottom Plug Pin Wire Color Gauge Function 1 Black 14 Ground - Negative 2 Black 14 Ground - Negative 3 Red 14 Power - Positive 4 Orange 14 Common to Lamps 9 10 Lamp Wiring Circuits Circuit Wire Color Gauge Function Application 1 Brown 18 Lamp circuit All 2 Red …
