SAFETY NOTICESThis equipment is normally used or connected to circuits that may employ voltages which are dangerous and may be fatal if accidentally contacted by operating or maintenance personnel. Extreme caution should be exercised when working with this equipment.

5 While practical safety precautions have been incorporated in this equipment, the following rules must be strictly observed:KEEP AWAY FROM LIVE CIRCUITS Operating and maintenance personnel must at all times observe all safety regulations. Do not perform maintenance on internal components or re-lamp with power Maintenance personnel should familiarize themselves with the technique for resuscitation found in widely published manuals of rst aid instructions. IMPORTANT NOTICES: Be certain this is the correct lighting system for the project. Verify the lighting system and equipment received are in accordance with the project speci cations.

6 Locations on Not Grounded (Isolated) towers, High RF antennas, hazardous areas due to explosive gas, fumes, dust, salt air or other highly corrosive/chemical environments often require special components or system modi cation for proper function and system schematic-wiring blueprint drawing is supplied and included with the controller. Reference must be made to the drawing before making any wiring connections. This manual of instructions outlines the function of the controller and its components. There should be no maintenance performed on the OLC or the system without reference to the manual and the OLC schematic relays are factory preset for their indicated operations. Changing the switch selections will cause a malfunction of the circuit and may damage the relay.

7 For applications using fewer than the designated number of lights for a given OLC, note the following: For fewer double Obstruction lights, do not wire the appropriate alarm relays to the alarm circuit (unused alarm relays will indicate a fault). NOT GROUNDED (ISOLATED) TOWER APPLICATIONS:The OLC must be isolated from the input power by means of a standard isolation transformer or an appropriate choke ( lter) system. 5 May 002015[D1RW-C13-008SP-A-revA]3195 Vickery Rd. N. Syracuse, NY 13212 Ph: (315) 699-4400 or (800) 739-9169 Fax: (315) 699-3700 May 002015[D1RW-C13-008SP-A-revA]III. INPUT POWERP ower to the Obstruction Lighting Controller (OLC) will vary based on the P/N of your system (see accompanying documentation).

8 Controller circuit protection (fuse or circuit breaker) for incoming power is external and provided by others. It is important to use the speci c OLC schematic-wiring diagram together with this V. I N STALLATIONM ount the controller cabinet in a vertical position ensuring the cabinet is level and there is ample space to mount the unit. The enclosure is provided with bracket mounting feet at the top and bottom back edges for use against a vertical surface or frame. Be sure the mounting location is square so as not to twist or warp the enclosure during mounting. Prior to wiring the controller to incoming power and loads, make sure all hardware and electrical connections have not loosened during and conduit entrances and their location on the cabinet are to be provided by the installer.

9 On some lighting controllers, knockout openings are provided on the cabinet. All cabinet openings should be from the bottom of the enclosure. Wiring entrances for power input, external photo control leads, and external lighting loads should be located opposite to their terminal connections, if possible. The external Photoelectric Control should be located near the controller and must also have the wiring and conduit enter through the bottom of the unit. Refer to the PCR instructions for proper location and circuit wiring. Standard and special lighting controllers incorporate a green and yellow ground lug (GND) located on the left end of the terminal strip which lies on the left end of the terminal block.

10 It is near the power input terminals and it is comprised of a box lug or singular screw-hold lug, which is fastened to the metal back panel. The metal back panel is secured to the enclosure housing forming a solid equipment ground path through an attached conductor from the ground lug to external ground (earth). A green colored wire ( # 8 - # 10 AWG stranded copper conductor ) should be used for connection from the ground lug to an external ground (earth). The system neutral is NOT considered a grounded contact and must NOT be connected to the ground lug or controller purpose of grounding is to protect equipment, personnel, and circuits by eliminating the possibility of dangerous fault current or excessive voltages.
