Operating Principle

The flasher unit has very low current requirements. A microprocessor drives multiple ultra-bright LED's (Light
Emitting Diodes) through a DC/DC converter, which enables the LED's to operate within the manufacturer's
specifications.
On darkness, the microprocessor will initiate a program check and after approximately 1 minute begin flashing
to the set Flash Code.
