Safety Warning
This equipment uses lethal voltages which can cause serious injury and/or death. Do not
attempt to service this equipment with line power applied.
Do not rely on interlock switches to remove lethal voltages from the system. Measure for
voltages using a voltmeter to ensure that power is off and has been completely removed.
Do not wear any jewelry. Gold and silver are excellent conductors of electricity.

Introduction
Congratulations! You have purchased one of the most advanced control solutions for red
LED and incandescent obstruction lighting systems available today. This product is the
result of many years of engineering with extensive input from field service personnel.
Please take the time to read and familiarize yourself with this manual. It contains the
information necessary to install, test and troubleshoot the RLC-200.
Product Description
The RLC-200 is capable of controlling up to five FAA type L-810(L) red LED or FAA type
L-810 incandescent markers. Individual alarm relays are provided for indication of marker
alarm, and system mode. Virtually all information necessary for installation and operation
of the RLC-200 is available on the “quick info” card located in the door of the enclosure.

Marker Alarm Setting
The Marker Alarm Setting switch sets the number of marker lamps at which a marker
alarm will be generated. The switch is adjustable from zero to four lamps. The factory
default setting is one, meaning that a marker alarm will be generated when one or less
marker lamps are burning.
Manual Mode Select Switch
The Manual Mode Select Switch overrides the photoelectric cell (PEC) to allow selection
of Day mode or Night Mode for test or troubleshooting purposes. The Day or Night Mode
lights flash when in manual mode. This switch should be left in the AUTO position for
normal operation. In the AUTO position the operating mode is determined by the
photoelectric cell.
Indicator Lights

Description Function
DAY MODE Steady – Day mode operation via photoelectric cell.
Flashing – Day mode operation via manual mode select switch.
NITE MODE Steady – Night mode operation via photoelectric cell.
Flashing – Night mode operation via manual mode select switch.
CMD On when the RLC-200 commands the obstruction lights to flash.
(Flashing option must be special ordered from factory)
