4.3.2 PHA mode (INT) When the rotation (motion) cycle of a measured object matches with the strobe flash cycle, the measured object appears to stand still. Use the PHA mode in order to adjust the stop angle (position). The phase can be changed by 1° using dial within the range between 1° and 359° in the PHA mode. Press “UNIT”...
4.4 External synchronous emission ・External synchronous emission is the function to emit a strobe flash in synchronization with an external trigger pulse input. ・You can set which edge of the external trigger pulse triggers emission, the rising edge or falling edge. ・A timing (delay) from the external trigger pulse input with the strobe flash emission can be optionally set using time and angle.

4.4.2 PHA mode setting (EXT) Delay emission can be set within the input signal range between 27 and 35020 [fpm]. In the PHA mode, the phase from the external trigger pulse entry to strobe flash emission can be changed by 1° using the dial within the range between 1°...
4.5 Function mode Turn the power ON while pressing the “MODE” to enter the function mode. During the function mode, turn the dial (CW/CCW) to change the settings. And press “MODE” to save the setting and move to the next setting item. (F1⇒F2⇒F3⇒F4⇒F5⇒F6 end ) If the power is turned OFF in the middle of the function mode, the changed value will not be saved in the memory.

4.11 Lamp replacement The life of a xenon lamp is about 1200 hours when it is emitted at 1500 fpm each time. Although rotation speed is displayed, no flash is emitted. When the flash is intermittently emitted, this indicates the lamp must be replaced. Be sure to replace the lamp with the following steps.
Specifications 5.1 Specifications list Emission count 30 to 35000 fpm 30.0 to 5000.0 : 0.1 fpm to 8000.0 : 0.2 fpm Resolution to 10000.0 : 0.5 fpm to 35000.0 : 1.0 fpm Internal Phase change function Available (PHA mode) Available (press “×2” and “÷2” while on INT) oscillation Jump function emission...
