SIGNALLING THROUGH WARNING LIGHT If a warning light (or a LED warning light is used – optional accessory) is connected to the control unit’s FLASH output, it will flash once a second during manoeuvres. If any anomalies occur, the warning light will emit shorter flashes which are repeated twice with a 1-second pause between each pair. The same signals are also emitted by the LED warning light (optional accessory).
