1. SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The Tranberg Commander Searchlight uses a serial communication net-
work to control and monitor the searchlights. This makes it possible to
freeely choose and combine the number of searchlights and panels. All
panels can control all searchlights, one at a time, by using selection but-
tons on the panel.
The communication network is connected as a bus topology, i.e. the com-
munication cable is connected from unit to unit as a chain. In that way,
all units can communicate with every other unit, and can listen to every
message sent over the network. Each unit connected to a bus must be
uniquely identified by a number (address). This address is set either by
thumbwheels, or programmed and stored in internal non-volatile memory.
One of the units has to control the communication on the bus. The
unit performing this function is called a master, and in the Commander
Searchlight system this function is assigned to the panel with address ‘0’.
When the master is powered up it will check what units are present on the
bus by querying each unit. If one unit is not powered up in this phase, and
thus does not answer the query, it will be regarded as not-present and will
not be able to communicate with the other units on the bus. It is therefore
important that all searchlights are powered up before the panels.

2. OPERATION
2.2 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION - CABLING
CABLING – COMMUNICATION NETWORK:
1. Use 2x twisted pairs + screen cable. Characteristic impedance:
100 – 250 ohms. Suitable cables types can be cables made for Profi-
bus, Interbus, Ethernet, Cat5, or similar.
2. The communication network must be connected as a bus topol-
ogy, i.e. from point to point (unit to unit). No loops or star connec-
tions are allowed.
3. No end terminations are necessary.
4. Connect A to A, B to B and Ref to Ref.
5. The order of panels and searchlights along the bus can be freely
chosen. Tip: A drawing of the system showing the order and ad-
dresses of the units can be of great help if troubleshooting should be
necessary.
NOTE1:
Keep communication cables away from all power lines.
NOTE2:
Treat / regard Reference as a signal. It shall under no circumstance be
connected to Ground or other Protective Earth potentials.

2.1 START-UP PROCEDURE
Power-up: Apply power in the following sequence:
1. Apply the 230 VAC power to the searchlights first.
2. Apply the 24 VDC power to the panels next. If the panels have
several separate supplies, ensure that the master panel is pow-
ered up last. The panels will be in the ‘on’ mode when powered
up.
If, for some reason, this is not possible, please do a manual re-scan as
described in chapter 4.2 after all units are powered up.
A searchlight will do a position reference search when powered up and
receiving a bus query message from the master panel (a bus re-scan).
It will slowly turn to the right and tilt upwards until the end positions are
reached. The searchlight will not respond to joystick commands from
a panel until it has finished this position search phase (but the light can
be turned on and off).

4.1 IDENTIFYING THE MASTER PANEL
For the following special procedures, the master panel need to be
identified.
The master panel can be recognized by the yellow indicator in the
power button. When you turn off power by pressing this button, the
yellow indicator will be continuously lit in the master panel. It will blink
slowly (1 sec. on, 1 sec off) on a slave panel.
4.2 RE-SCAN OF NODES CONNECTED TO THE BUS
If necessary, the master panel can do a bus scan when powered up
using the following procedure:
(Note: Do not operate or use any panels or searchlights during this
procedure. Ensure that all are powered up.)
1. Turn off the master panel using the power button. Release the but-
ton. The backlight will turn off.
2. Press and hold the power button for at least 5 seconds.
3. While holding the power button, press and release the second se-
lect button (marked ‘2/6’ (2613) or ‘B’ (2614) ). (Repeat if neces-
sary, until backlight turns on).
4. The panel backlight will now turn on, and it will start the scanning
of the bus (it takes a couple of seconds).
5. Release the power button.
6. When the scan process is finished, the panel will show which
searchlights are present on the bus by fast flashing the corre-
sponding leds on the select buttons (upper row).
7. Turn on the panel by using the power button as usual.
8. Repeat the procedure if necessary.
4.3 ALTERNATIVE RE-SCAN PROCEDURE
FOR PANELS DELIVERED FROM APRIL 2009 AND ONWARDS:
If necessary, the master panel can do a bus scan when powered up
using the following procedure: A panel can do both this alternate
re-scan procedure as well as the previous procedure (ch. 5.1).
(Note: Do not operate or use any panels or searchlights during this
procedure. Ensure that all are powered up.)
1. Set all panels to standby (“turn off”) by using the on/stdby button.
The backlight will turn off. Locate the master panel (see ch. 3.2),
and turn it on again.
2. Press and hold both speed buttons (‘fast’ and ‘slow’) for at least
5 seconds.
3. On the 2613 and 2614 panels, the indicators in the ‘searchlight
select’ buttons will start flashing in sequence. On the 2612 panels,
the indicators in the speed buttons will flash in sequence. Release
the speed buttons.
4. The sequential flashing will last for a couple of seconds, as long as
the scanning of the bus is performed. When the flashing is finished,
the system is ready for use.
5. Repeat the procedure if necessary.
4.4 RESET OF SEARCHLIGHTS
1. Remove power (230VAC) to the searchlight (motor unit), wait for
approx. 10 sec, and reconnect the power. (It is not necessary to
disconnect the xenon power supply). If several searchlights need
to be reset, repeat this for each searchlight before commencing
to step
2. Do a re-scan from the master panel. Alternatively, remove and re-
apply power (24VDC) to the panels, either all or at least the master
panel. The searchlight will now move to the right and upwards to
find the end positions, and back to center. If necessary, watch the
searchlight at this stage to verify the movement.
4.5 RECALIBRATE END LIMITS ON SEARCHLIGHTS
1. Open the searchlight junction box and set DIP-switch no. 1 to ON.
2. Remove power (230VAC) to the searchlight (motor unit), wait for
approx. 10 sec, and reconnect the power. (It is not necessary to
disconnect the xenon power supply). If several searchlights need
to be reset, repeat this for each searchlight before commencing
to step 3.
3. Do a re-scan from the master panel. Alternatively, remove and re-
apply power (24VDC) to the panels, either all or at least the master
panel. The searchlight will now do a complete movement up – right
– left – center/down to find the end limit positions, and back to
center. If necessary, watch the searchlight at this stage to verify
the movement.
4. Set the DIP-switch no. 1 back to OFF and close the junction box.
4.6 CHANGING ADDRESS ON A SEARCHLIGHT
PREPARATION:
1. Identify the master panel. Unmount the master pan-
el, so as to get access to the rotary swiches on the rear.
IMPORTANT: Make a note of the settings of the switches
2. Disconnect the power supply to all the searchlights. (Leave the
power supply to the panels connected).
PROCEDURE:
3. Connect the power supply to the searchlight whose
address shall be changed.
4. Turn off the master panel using the power button. Release the but-
ton. The backlight will turn off.
5. Set the rotary switch labeled ”N/A” on the rear, set it to
one lower than the new address of the searchlight (address
minus 1, e.g. set to ‘1’ if the searchlight is to be set to
address ‘2’, i.e. respond to the first press of button ‘2/6’).
6. Press and hold the power button for at least 5 seconds. While
holding the power button, push the button marked ”3/7” (a short
normal push and release). This button can alternatively be pushed
several times, until the panel backlight is lit. When the backligth
is lit, release the power button. The panel will now send a special
message to the searchlight.
7. Check the indicators in the searchlight select buttons (”1/5”, ”2/6”,
”3/7” and ”4/8”). After approx. 5 – 10 sec. one of them will flash
fast (2 times pr. sec) to show the new address of the searchlight.
4 SPECIAL PROCEDURES

COMMANDER SEARCHLIGHT - NETWORK & CONFIGURATION MANUAL
4 SPECIAL PROCEDURES
8. Push power button once to turn on the panel. Check if
the searchlight can be controlled on the new address. The
procedure can be repeated if necessary.
9. If more searchlights are to be changed, disconnect the power to
the current searchlight, and repeat the procedure from step 3.
FINALIZING:
10. IMPORTANT: Turn the rotary switch on the rear of the
master panel back to the initial (noted) setting.
11. Mount the master panel back in place, connect the power supply
to all the searchlights.
12. Do a re-scan of the bus, either by disconnecting and
reconnecting the power supply to the master panel, or by follow-
ing the re-scan procedure described further up in this document.
Repeat if necessary.
INDICATOR TEST:
13. To see if all indicators on the front of the panel are working, pro
ceed as follows:
14. Turn off panel with the ‘ON/STBY’ button.
15. Press and hold the ‘ON/STBY’ button for at least 5 seconds.
16. While holding the ‘ON/STBY’ button, press (and release) the
‘DIM’ button shortly.
17. Release the ‘ON/STBY’ button. All indicators on the front of the
panel will now flash rapidly.
18. If joystick or buttons are operated during this test, a corresponding
LED (s) will extingwish as long as the button is held.
19. Press (and release) shortly the ‘ON/STBY’ button to exit lamp test
mode and to turn on panel.
NOTE: Slow flashing is 1 sec. on, 1 sec. off. Fast flashing is 2 flashes
per second.

Page 10
COMMANDER SEARCHLIGHT - NETWORK & CONFIGURATION MANUAL
5.1 GENERAL
1. Check which searchlights and from which panels the problem
exists on. Can the fault be isolated to a particular searchlight or
panel?
2. If it is a system with a radio control module (RCM), check if the
same problems exists with the ordinary (wired) panels.
3. When changing a setting/address on a unit, remove and reapply
power to let the change become operative.
5.2 PROBLEMS WITH MOVEMENT
1. No movement: Check if light is able to turn on/off: do a re-scan on
the master panel (see ch. 5.2 or 5.3).
2. Limited or shifted range of movement: possible problems with end
limit switches. Try resetting the searchlight (see ch. 5.4).
3. The searchlight moves with low speed only (And incorrect position
indication on panel): Possible problems with position sensors. Try
resetting the searchlight (ch. 5.4) or a recalibration of end limits
(ch. 5.5).
4. Spurious movement when joystick or panel is not operated: Possi-
ble electrical noise or interference on the communication network.
Check if this happens under special operation conditions of the
ship or other equipment. Alternatively, try resetting the searchlight
(ch. 5.4)
5. Not able to select a searchlight from any of the panels. Possible
failure of power supply or power dip (230VAC) to the searchlight.
Do a a re-scan on the master panel (see ch. 5.2 or 5.3).
5.3 PROBLEMS TURNING ON OR OFF THE LAMP
1. Check if movement functions normally. If yes, then the communi-
cation with the searchlight is OK and the fault may be in the lamp
circuits: Check the lamp itself, electrical wiring and relays. If no,
first try to reestablish the communication with the searchlight: Do
a re-scan on the master panel (see ch. 5.2 or 5.3).
2. Check if green indicator in “light” button functions normally (tog-
gles on/off when pushing the button). If yes, then the communica-
tion with the searchlight is OK and the fault may be in the lamp
circuits: Check the lamp itself, electrical wiring and relays. If no,
the communication network may be faulty or being influenced by
interference, or the searchlight may have a power loss (230VAC).
Try to reestablish the communication with the searchlight: Do a re-
scan on the master panel (see ch. 5.2 or 5.3).
3. Check relay in the lamp power supply circuit: Contactor in junction
box, relay on motor drive electronics.
5.4 PROBLEMS WITH PANELS
1. A master panel is required to get the system to function. If the
panel set to master is faulty, the system will not function. Change
address on one of the other (slave) panels to ‘0’, remove and
reapply power (to the panel), and the panel will function as master.
See also ch. 5.2 and 5.3 for re-scan from the master panel.
2. If a button or a joystick is faulty, do the indicator test described in
ch. 2.2.
5 FAULT FINDING
5.5 PROBLEMS AT INSTALLATION
1. Check correct wiring (A is always connected to A, likewise for B
and Ref. No grounding of Ref or connected to protective earth).
Tip: if one unit in the middle of the comm. network bus does not
respond, it may be that A and B are swapped both for the incom-
ing and the outgoing cable.
2. Jerky movement (and/or light goes uncontrolled on/off) can be
caused by electrical noise on the network. Check correct wiring,
especially mix-up of Ref and A or B.
3. Two or several searchlights move simultaneously when only one is
selected from the panel: Check the addresses of the searchlights
(same address on two units).
4. Not possible to select any searchlight, or strange behaviour of the
indicators on one or more panels. Check the addresses on the
panels, two or more set at the same address.
5. Master panel: There shall be one and only one panel set to master
(ADR = 0) in a system. If no panel is set as master, the system will
appear “dead”, if more than one, the panels will have an unpredict-
able behaviour.
6. If several faults are present on a system, try to isolate one panel
and one searchlight and get this to work, then add more units step
by step.
7. To decide whether cabling or searchlight is erroneous, power a
panel (set to master) with a 9V battery and connect the communi-
cation network directly to a searchlight.
