2.0 Safety Information
The LS-36-LED must only be used in accordance with these operating instructions. The
LS-36-LED must not be altered in any way. The manufacturer will not be liable for any
damage resulting from incorrect or improper use. This will also render the guarantee
null and void.
• Under strobe lighting, moving objects appear stationary or in slow
motion. The objects should never be touched.
• The LS-36-LED must not be used in explosion hazard areas.
• Store the LS-36-LED in a dry place. It must not be exposed to
water (dripping or splashing). No objects lled with liquids
(e.g. vases) should be placed on the unit
• Strobe lighting can trigger epileptic ts in those who are
susceptible.
• Repairs should only be carried out by the manufacturer or supplier.
• The stroboscope’s electronic components contain environmentally
harmful substances. They must be disposed of in accordance with
the relevant national environmental guidelines.

3.0 Controls
On the rear side of the device you will nd the following controls. Use of these controls
is explained in the following section:
1. Rocker switch marked POWER:
Use to switch the strobe power ON and OFF.
2. Rotary knob marked SHARP/BRIGHT:
Use to adjust the ash duration brightness/sharpness.
3. Rocker switch marked INPUT
Use to select whether socket 1 or 2 should be used for the trigger signal input.
This rocker switch only alternates between the trigger signals. It is still
possible to feed the supply voltage through both

4.0 Installation/Mounting
Mount the strobe in the desired location using the threaded inserts located on the
underside of the strobe housing (shown below). There are two (2) M5 metric threaded
inserts and one (1) 1/4-20 inch threaded insert. Use appropriated plate and screw to
attach to customer-supplied mounting xture.

5.0 Connection
The stationary stroboscope has three connection sockets on the reverse of the unit which
share some identical functions and therefore offer a high level of exibility. The possible
uses and labelling of these sockets are as follows:
Marking: 1
Use: Trigger signal input, connection of voltage supply.
Marking: 2
Use: Trigger signal input, connection of voltage supply.
Marking: Output
Use: Output of a trigger signal that is input into 1 or 2, connection of voltage supply.
The assignment of plug contacts is shown in Fig 1 below..
• Please make the connections in accordance with the wiring diagram
(Fig. 1). The trigger input is potential-free. The potential-free input
is suitable for PNP and NPN signals. A matching plug for these input
sockets is included with the LS-36-LED.
• Do not trigger the LS-36-LED with signals above 120,000 FPM.
RECOMMENDATION!
Use a shielded cable to connect the trigger signal.

5.1 Typical connection examples:
Please take connection examples from Figures 2 to 5. Please note that you will need
optional accessories for some of the examples (stroboscope control unit, AC Adapter,
sensor).
A. Trigger signal and supply voltage
from external equipment (Fig. 2).
B. Trigger signal from external
equipment (Fig. 3), supply
voltage from optional AC Adapter.
C. Trigger signal from optional
sensor (Fig. 4), supply voltage
for unit and sensor from optional
AC Adapter.

– 8 –
D. Trigger signal from optional,
hand-operated stroboscope control
unit (e.g. RT Strobe control or
RT Strobe eco control), supply
voltage from optional AC adapter
(Fig. 5).
The power is either supplied by the LS-36-LED power supply unit (available as an
option) or the equipment being observed.
The LS-36-LED requires an external trigger source. Possible trigger sources include a
stroboscope control unit, an external machine or a sensor.
NOTE!
When using the stationary stroboscope without stroboscope control unit, the stroboscope
ashes with the trigger signal of the connected equipment. This signal cannot be
inuenced without a stroboscope control unit.

6.0 Operation
6.1 Aligning the unit and switching it on.
1. Point the stationary stroboscope at a moving object and
switch it on. The red LED inside the rocker switch indicates
that it is ready for use. If the LED ashes, the unit is
connected to the voltage supply but no trigger signal is
present. If the LED remains constantly lit, the unit is
receiving both voltage and a trigger signal.
2. As soon as the trigger signal is applied, the unit will start to ash with the trigger
frequency.
3. If the ashing frequency coincides with the movement frequency, a stationary
image will appear.
NOTE!
A stationary image will not only appear with an identical ashing frequency, but also
with multiples and fractions thereof.
6.2 Switching between sockets 1 and 2.
1. Use the rocker switch located to the right
of the two sockets to select which socket
will be used for the trigger signal input.
Ensure that an input signal is present
for the selected socket.
6.3 Adjusting the flash duration.
1. You can adjust brightness and sharpness according to your
requirements using the rotary knob marked
SHARP/BRIGHT with the symbols .
2. To reduce the brightness, and increase sharpness, turn the
knob counterclockwise towards (SHARP).
3. To increase brightness and reduce sharpness, turn the knob
clockwise towards (BRIGHT).
