  • Page 19: The Controller Cabinet

    The Controller Cabinet The controller cabinet houses the majority of the Horizon Signal components, including the Multi-Phase Controller, Data Radio, Circuit Board, ProStar Solar Charge Controller, Hydraulic Control Switch, and Remote Monitoring System unit. 1. Multi-Phase Controller - Works in conjunction with other controllers in the signal system to operate signal timing and sequencing.

  • Page 20: System Features

    System Features 1. The Horizon Signal system is capable of three modes of operation. • Radio - Wireless communication between all controllers in the system. • Cable - Wired communication between all controllers in the system. • Quartz - Synchronized timing of all controllers in the system via quartz clocks. Controllers do not communicate in this mode.
  • Page 21 If the controller is turned on without a micro-terminal plugged in, it will automatically load its most recent program. This means that if the signals are shut off at night, the program will still be ready to run when they are powered on the next morning. No reprogramming is necessary unless there has been a change to the work zone (speed or distance) or timing sequence.
