The JX 5600 set has to be used in conjonction either with JX 2360 or JX 2600 families Flash Light Power
Sets.
1.1
Physical wiring
It is used to monitor and remote control a SFLS assembly such as described underneath :
The Power Station supplies the sets with main 240V AC + - 10 % (Black wire on diagram).
The mains cable has to be able to supply 0,5 rms A (220 V AC) or 1 rms A (110 V AC) for each flash lamp.
This power supply is maintained continuously on line, as the eventual heater resistor may has to be supplied.
The JX 5600 will be in charge of switching On and Off the flashes.

The sets are hierarchicaly sequenced via an unique analog time base line (clock signal, blue wire on diagram)
This signal passes through single shielded wire.
Each clock top is a 20Vpp pulse of 10 ms duration.
This flash is the Master.
His internal clock pilots the repetition
period of the whole SFLS
Power Station
JX 5600
This flash is the Master.
Its internal clock pilots the repetition
period of the whole SFLS.
It has to be set in factory
These 2 flashes are REILS.
They have no intervall delay and, by
the fact, flash always together as
one.
The R1, first in the sequence, has to
be set in factory.

5 22
The sets are monitored and controled via a serie (RS485) digital bus called J-Bus (Green wire on diagram)
This bus is constructed with a shielded twist pair cable.
This bus allows JX 5600 to :
1. Command the sets
2. Query the sets
JX 5600 Rear panel connector
(Jbus connections).
It is necessary to connect a J-Bus Load on each “end of line” to insure a perfect impedance for the digital
signal. 3 J-Bus Loads are delivered with eachJX 5600

(symetrical amplifier) may be necessary when the line is longer than 1 000 m, even if a
1 600 m trial succeded.
The J-Bus lets the JX 5600 command the flash sets state and query sets infos.
It is also possible to command the set via analog way. (see JX2360 Connection manual for details)
JX 5600 Rear panel connector
(Analog connections).
To switch on the sets, short-circuit “ON” and “GND”
When ON, to change brilliance levels, short-circuit “MI” or “HI” and “GND”. If both are short-ciruited,
only “HI” is functionnal.
The total resistance of the short circuit have to be less than 125 Ohmx for a SFLS of 31 boxes

Ordered separately. Ask your reseller for details or send a mail at c[email protected]

1.2
Commanding the Flash sets
The JX 5600 may :
•Switch on off the sets
•Select brilliance level (3% low intensity : LI,
10% medium intensity : MI
100% hight intensity : HI)
If necessary, the JX 5600 may :
•Change the repetition period of the SFLS from 500 ms to 1 s , 1,5 s or 2 s.
•Change the inter flash intervall delay from 0, 14, 66 or 266 ms.
1.3
Querying the Flash sets
The JX 5600 may query the sets for:
•The present brightness set up
•Wether a lamp operates or not (curative maintenance)
•The number of flashes a lamp has done since the last global switch on (preventive maintenance)
•Internal un-documented technical datas
1.4
Case of J-Bus fault
When a box do not receive any J-Bus frame during a period longer than 2mn, then it automaticaly force
its internal J-Bus command to the state OFF Low Intensity.
Analog commands keep their action.

2 Dialog with JX 5600
The JX 5600 is internaly architectured around a web server which allows the maintenance engineer
and or control tower to set up configuration and monitor the present state of the SFLS.
Connecting a standard PC compatible equiped with a web explorer to the JX 5600 allows the user
interact with it.
Depending on the request (human level or machine level) the JX 5600 sends user friendly pages or
simply encoded variables values datas.
The JX 5600 has a hardware mode which allows an operator to disconnect (local mode) or reconnect
(remote mode) the server.
On local mode, the SFLS may be switched of and off directly via a harware switch on the panel.
This mode allows the maintenance engineer to over drive the control tower orders on the SFLS in order
to prevent any un-safety situation when technical operations are proceeded.
3 Harware local mode
On the frontpanel, switching the “local” position configure the JX 5600 in local ode. In this mode, only
the switches of the front panel command the SFLS
ON OFF switches On or Off the SFLS, as Brigthness level switches on Low, Medium or Hight
intensity (LI, MI or HI). These modes are confirmed by the leds.
Do not forget to back switch on “remote” mode, otherwise nobody can
pilot the SFLS via Ethernet.

4 Ethernet mode
4.1
Machine level
The JX 5600 can dialog with a computer via the ethernet plug.
Two different ways are possible to use.
4.1.1 ASCII mode
In this mode, it acts as a slave and answers to the commands and queries in ASCII mode as described
below. The JX 5600 uses port 5556 and UDP protocol. Each message ends with a semicolon.

Where :
X = 0 on local mode

03 to switch On on HI mode
SPEED_CONTROL Y; This command changes the repetition period time and interflash
intervall delay on the whole SFLS
X = 0 for 500 ms period
1 for 1 s period
2 for 1,5 s period
