Synchronised Operation
All BExBG05D-P beacons that are connected to the same sup-
ply line will have a synchronised flash rate at one flash every
second. To ensure that the units will be synchronised check that
the pin header is not fitted, i.e. the two header pins are not
shorted together (see Figure 10).

Flip-Flop Operation
Two beacons can be mounted close to each other to form a flip-
flop operation, where the beacons will flash alternately. To
achieve this mode of operation, fit a pin header to the flip- flop
header pins on the electronics board, i.e. the two header pins
are shorted together, (see figure 10) on one of the two beacons.
The first flash on the beacon that has the header fitted will be
delayed by ½ second. The two beacons will then flash alter-
nately every ½ a second.
15) Interchangeable & Spare Parts
Warning – Hot surfaces. External surfaces
and internal components may be hot after
operation, take care when handling the
equipment.
The beacon cover is interchangeable, contact manufacturing
plant for a replacement cover available in various colours.
To change the cover, unscrew the M5 socket head screws and
remove the M5 screws, M5 spring & flat washers.
