Hartenberger Underwater Lamp mega compact / mega compact D2 Instructions for use
8
To operate the lamp, individual preferences can be selected in different
programmes (except for use with D2 gas discharge module).
The programme set appears in the top right hand corned of the display
when both switches are pressed simultaneously. (A,B,C, or T).
If both switches (+/-) remain pressed, the programme will change
approx. every 3 seconds to the next programme,
(A,B,C,T,A,B,C,T,...). Releasing the switches will store the last
displayed programme in the power pack. After replacing a power
pack, the stored programme will be activated.
Programme A Lamp only ON/OFF
Programme B Lamp dimmer in 5 stages of 25% from 25% to 125%.
Programme C Lamp dimmer infinitely variable in 5% steps from 25% to 125%.
Programme T Lamp is only ON as long as the switches are pressed.
DESCRIPTION OF THE SWITCH UNIT
Programme A: By pressing the plus (+) switch, the lamp is turned on to 125% power.
The minus (–) switch turns the lamp off.
Programme B: Each time the + switch is pressed for approx. ½ second, the lamp
power will increase 25%. The – switch operates in the same way to
reduce the power 25%. When the lamp has reached the max. or
minimum power setting and the switch is pressed again, the lamp will
blink once to show that the end of the scale has been reached.
If the + switch is pressed for approx. 1 second, the lamp is turned on to
it’s max. (125%) power setting. The – switch pressed for approx. 1
second will turn the lamp off.
Programme C: If the + switch is pressed continuously, the lamp will increase the power
(in 5% steps) until the maximum power is reached (125%) when the
lamp will blink once. Pressing the – switch continuously will reduce the
power in 5% steps to the minimum power setting of 25% when the lamp
will blink once.
If the – switch is pressed for only approx. ½ second, the lamp will turn
off. Pressing the + switch for only approx. ½ second will turn the lamp
on to it’s last power setting.
Programme T: In programme T, the lamp stays on as long as the + switch is pressed
for sending Morse signals. The power is 125%.
Programme D2 Gas discharge module
The micro processors immediately recognise that the gas discharge
module is in place. No manual adjustment is necessary.
Pressing the + switch will activate the electronics to 100% power.
Thanks to a special technology, the gas discharge xenon bulb, which
normally cannot be dimmed, can be operated at 75% power.
If the – switch is pressed for only approx. ½ second, the lamp will
switch over to 75% power setting.
Pressing the – switch again for only approx. ½ second will turn the light
off. If the – switch is pressed long for approx. 1 second, the light will
turn off from the 100% power setting.
A feature of the gas discharge technology is the long warm up
phase. In the first 45 seconds of operations the gas discharge bulb
needs approx. 80% more power than when it is reached it´s
working temperature. For this reason, it is recommended to use
the gas discharge technology for continued operation.
