4.3. Modes of operation

FCS-1 "Emergency vehicle light"
According to the connection of the circuit´s input, the LEDs connected
to the five outputs are controlled by two different programmes:
Programme 1 "Double flashlight": The LEDs flash twice each and then
go out for a short time. The LEDs connected to two of the five outputs
double flash alternately. The other three outputs generate an
asynchronous double flash which is interrupted by different intervals.
Programme 2 "Alternating flashlight": Two of the five outputs generate
an alternating flash, two others, an alternating double flash. The LED
connected to the fifth output flashes with a frequency of its own which
is not synchronized to the frequency of the other outputs.
FCS-2 "Vehicle module"
If the vehicle does not receive the signal to drive on for a longer time,
all lights connected to the module are switched off (current saving
mode).
FCS-3 "Bus module"
When the bus halts more than 10 seconds at a stop, the module
interprets the stop as bus stop. The LEDs for the flash light are
switched to "warning light" until the drive on signal, but max. up to one
minute. If the bus does not receive the signal to drive on during one
minute, the flashing lights and the back lights are switched off (current
saving mode). While starting after a halt at the bus stop the flash lights
on the left are switched on for a short time.
At stops where flash lighting is not desired (e.g. at traffic lights or
priority roads), the bus should get the signal to drive on in less than 10
seconds. After such a (short) stop the flash lights on the left are not
swiched on.
