Designed to provide highly reliable
subsystem, the Flasher E863 uses the latest surface mount and microcontroller
technology to provide a compact, robustself-contained solid state device
incorporating several new features.
E863 flasher units are designed for
switching both filament lamp and/or LED lanterns and for transmission of
diagnostic and emergency messages via local area network (LAN). The flasher
utilizes Pulse With Modulation to achieve a very high degree of regulation
of the effective voltage of the lantern .
The E863 flasher provides the user
with a convenient, simple setting up by a service computer device that
may be used in both stand alone and system applications. Special care has
been taken to minimize the power consumption in the idle state which is
essential when using the flasher in primary battery powered buoys.
