1.0 OVERVIEW
The Phaser-Strobe pbx is an extremely sophiscated instrument with many
features, yet remains simple to operate. Select only the features you need.
1.1 Display Panel / Denion of Buons
The display panel consists of a backlighted liquid
crystal display with six numeric digits on top and
ve alphanumeric digits on the boom, which
indicate modes, ash rates, etc. (see Figure 1).
Addional informaon displayed include:
PHASE Indicates Phase Shi Delay Mode is acve
TIME Indicates Phase Shi Time Delay Mode is acve
AUTO Indicates Auto Phase Shiing Mode (Virtual RPM) is acve
ALT. Indicates alternate funcon of each buon (lower secon)
and knob will be used
TACH Tachometer Mode acve (strobe won’t ash)
LOCK Unused
EXT External Input Mode acve
On Target Indicator for Tachometer Mode and Remote
Sensor in External Mode
- - - - - Indicates input frequency exceeds the limit of the stroboscope
Baery indicaon (see 8.1 Low Baery Indicaon)

Below the display are six membrane buons which control the
operaon of the stroboscope.

DISPLAY/TACH
Internal/External Mode: toggles display between RPM and RPS
External Phase or Time Delay Mode: cycles display through
RPM, RPS, Phase and Time
Auto Mode: cycles display through RPM, RPS, VRPM and VRPS
ALT Funcon—toggles Tach Mode (ashing) on/o

ALT Funcon—Memory, reads and stores 9 preset ash rates
ALT FUNCTION
Acvates Alternate Funcon for buons (lower secon)
and knob
PHASE DELAY
Internal Mode: toggles between normal ash rate adjust and
“phase” delay adjust
External Input Mode: cycles through External only (no delay),
Phase, Time and Auto (VRPM)

The ALT FUNCTION buon toggles ALT. in the display. When ALT. is
displayed, the buons will perform their secondary funcon listed
in the lower secon of each buon. It also changes how the tuning
knob works.
2.0 PREPARATION FOR USE
The strobe may be handheld or mounted on a tripod or other user supplied
bracket using the ¼-20 UNC bushing at the base of the handle.
2.1 Power
The Phaser-Strobe pbx has internal rechargeable baeries and may
also be powered by an external AC power supply (PSC-pbxU). If using
the internal baeries, the unit should be charged before use (see
secon 8.2 Charging the Baeries). The actual operang me of the
stroboscope depends on the ash rate and duty cycle of operaon. The
strobe can also be run connuously from the AC mains with the power
supply supplied (see secon 8.3 External Power Supply/Charger).
2.2 Input / Output Connecons
The Phaser-Strobe pbx has input and output jacks on the le side
of the stroboscope. These can be used for external triggering or
synchronizaon (daisy chaining two or more strobes). These jacks
accept 1/8" (3.5 mm) phone plugs (input - stereo, output - mono). The
input and output are TTL compable. (See Figures 2 and 3 for connector
connecon detail.)

Figure 3 Output Connector Detail (Mono plug)
The oponal ROS-P (Remote Opcal Sensor), MT-190P (Magnec), or
IRS-P (Infrared) sensors may also be used to trigger the unit.
NOTE: When using external sensors that are powered by the Phaser-
Strobe pbx, e.g. Remote Opcal Sensor (ROS-P), the sensor must be
plugged in before the stroboscope is turned on, or the remote sensor
may not be powered up.
The input jack (▲ poinng into socket) enables an external signal to
trigger the strobe. Inserng a plug into the input jack will automacally
put the strobe into the External Input Mode. The INPUT buon can be
used to toggle between External Input Mode and Internal Mode. When
the plug is removed, the strobe will be put back into the Internal Mode.
The polarity of the input pulse can be set in the MENU opons.
5
With no external input, the output jack (▼poinng away from socket)
provides a TTL compable pulse from the strobe’s internal oscillator. If
an external input is applied, the output pulse is in sync with the input
pulse. This output pulse may be used to trigger a second stroboscope
synchronously to illuminate larger areas. Many strobes can be daisy
chained. The output jack of one strobe is connected to the input jack
of the next strobe causing all the strobes to ash together and be
controlled by the rst strobe in the chain. The polarity of the output
pulse can be set in the MENU opons.
3.0 MENU
The strobe has a Menu which allows the user to select sengs such as
number of decimal places, backlight on or o, posive or negave edge
for input and output signal, and input blanking on or o.
To enter the MENU:
1. Press the ALT FUNCTION buon and then the MENU buon.
2. SETUP and the menu opon will be displayed.
3. Turn the tuning knob to cycle through the main menu opons.
4. Once the desired menu opon is displayed, press the MENU buon to
select it. Press any other buon to cancel.
5. Turn the tuning knob to edit the menu opon seng.
6. Press the MENU buon to save your changes. Press any other buon
to cancel.
7. Press any buon other than MENU to exit the Main Menu.
8. DONE will be displayed.
Below is a list of the menu items:
DECPT Decimal Point (none, 1 or 2)
BLITE Backlight (Yes=On or No=O)
INPUT Posive (pos) or Negave (neg) Edge for Input Signal
OUTPT Posive (pos) or Negave (neg) Edge for Output Signal
BLANK Input Blanking (Yes=On or No=O)

4.0 OPERATION
To turn on the stroboscope, depress and hold the trigger. The trigger may
be locked in posion using the side locking buon. To lock the stroboscope
on, depress the trigger as far as it will go and then press the locking buon.
Once the locking buon is set you may release the trigger and the trigger
will be held in place. To unlock the stroboscope, simply depress the trigger
and then release.
NOTE: Unit must power down completely (OFF will be displayed and then
disappear) before unit will power on again. This is normal operaon.
There are ve (5) operang modes for the Phaser-Strobe pbx. These are
Internal, External Input, External Phase Delay, External Time Delay, and
Auto (Virtual RPM). All but the Internal Mode require an external input
signal.
In the Internal Mode, the knob adjusts the ash rate. In the External Input
Mode, an external signal is used to trigger the ash and the knob has no
eect. The External Delay Modes (Phase, Time and Auto) enable the user
to vary the stopped moon image at any point in the cycle without having
to move the trigger source locaon.
4.1 Internal Mode - Standard Strobe Operaon
In the Internal Mode, the stroboscope generates its own signals and
funcons like a tunable stroboscope. The strobe is in the Internal Mode
when nothing is plugged into the input jack or when manually set using
the INPUT buon.
