Three BNC connectors for lamps are fitted to all frame sizes - one on the master
module, and one at either end of the console on the infill panels. These are suitable
for Littlite or similar 12V lamps taking up to 330mA each. The voltage supply to
the lamps can be varied between 1.5v (dim) and 12v (bright) by the dimmer control,
mounted under the armrest in front of the master module.
