Dräger Polaris 600 Instructions For Use Manual page 49

Polaris 600 lights in accordance with the request.
All the Polaris 600 lights now have the same color
temperature and illuminance.
When the Synchronization function is activated,
the Polaris 600 lights can be switched into Standby
mode individually. This will deactivate the
Synchronization function. When a Polaris 600
light in the light system is in Standby mode,
the key on this light is deactivated. When
the key is pressed, the Synchronization
function is not activated. When all the Polaris 600
lights in the light system are in Standby mode,
the key on the wall-mounted control panel is
also deactivated.
When the Synchronization function is activated,
the Polaris 600 lights can be switched into
Ambient light mode individually. This will
deactivate the Synchronization function. When a
Polaris 600 light in the light system is in Ambient
light mode, the key on this light is deactivated.
When the key is pressed, the
Synchronization function is not activated. When
all Polaris 600 lights in the light system are in
Ambient light mode, the
mounted control panel is also deactivated.
When the Synchronization function is activated,
the illuminance of individual light heads can be
increased. If necessary, the total irradiance must
be adjusted by reducing the illuminance of
individual lights.
Switching on the Synchronization function
The light must be switched on before this function
can be activated, see "Switching the light on and
off" on page 48.

Technical background
The request sent out is known as a "broadcast
command", which either the selected Polaris 600
light or the wall-mounted control panel sends out to
the Polaris 600 lights in the light system. The
broadcast command contains the requested
values for the illuminance and the color
temperature.
In a network of lights, each Polaris 600 receives
the same broadcast command. The Polaris 600
lights receiving the broadcast command set their
respective illuminance and color temperature to
the requested values. With each change in color
temperature or illuminance, a new broadcast
command is sent out to the Polaris 600 lights. The
Polaris 600 lights receiving the broadcast
command cannot use the command to trace back
whether the command was sent out by the
selected Polaris 600 light or the wall-mounted
control panel. In particular, the Polaris 600 lights
cannot use the command to trace back which
Polaris 600 light has sent out the command. A
request can therefore be sent from the wall-
mounted control panel or from the selected
Polaris 600 light without the receiving Polaris 600
lights being able to identify the sender.
