Power Supply
Design Considerations
Avlite’s medium intensity obstruction lights are designed to operate over a wide operational voltage range and thus the average power consumption will vary accordingly.
There is a vast array of power sources that can be utilized for Avlite’s medium intensity obstruction lights. However, the vast majority of customer power supplies comprise of either Photovoltaic Power or AC Utility and as such this bulletin will focus on these types and how they apply to Avlite’s FAA L864 Medium Intensity Obstruction Lights.
Contact Avlite for advice when designing your power supply.
(1) PV Power Systems
These systems generally comprise of a 1 or more PV panels, a solar regulator and storage battery. Batteries such as SLAs are very tolerant of fast switch high peak currents as they electrically behave like large smoothing capacitors, solar sizing depends on a number of factors. For Avlite obstruction lights, pay particular attention to average power consumption and power cable sizing.
(2) Alternating Current (AC) Utility Power
In their simplest form, these systems comprise an AC/DC power supply converter. Unlike
PV Power Systems, AC/DC Power Supplies are limited to their internal storage capacity and as such are not able to maintain voltage regulation to fast switch currents.
As such a lantern’s peak current must be determined when selecting an AC/DC power supply. For Avlite’s Obstruction Lights, the peak current can be determined by using the following equation:
Peak current (A) = Peak Power (W)) / (Supply Voltage (Vdc)
Using this method, the peak current for the Avlite FL864 Obstruction Light:
Peak Current (A) = 60 / 12 = 5 A
As an AC/DC power supply has minimal storage capacity the selected power supply must be capable of delivering the lights peak current for all conditions. Other considerations such as de-rating the AC/DC power supply due to environment and usage.
Peak Power is the maximum power rating of a light. In an instant of time, this is the maximum power the light will consume. It is determined when all a light’s features are on and the LEDs intensity is at 100%.

13
Operation & Setup
When powered up, the light will constantly check day/night status using its internal ambient light sensor. The ambient light sensor averages its measurement for 30 seconds.
FAA: By default, the lights turn ON when the ambient light decreases to not less than 35 foot-candles (367.7 lux) and turn OFF when the ambient light increases to not more than 60 foot-candles (645.8 lux). These limits can be factory adjusted, if required.
Intensity Setting
The fixture will be supplied with a FAA compliant optic.
The obstruction light will be pre-set to the intensity setting required to produce a FAA compliant photometric profile. The intensity is pre-set in the factory and does not need to be set by the user.
Alarm Relay Output
In normal operation, the relay is energized
• Terminal contacts COMM and NC of the relay are electrically closed
• Terminal contacts COMM and NO of the relay are electrically open
Whenever the LED is not lit due to a power failure and/or a LED failure the relay will not be energized.
• Terminal contacts COMM and NO of the relay are electrically closed
• Terminal contacts COMM and NC of the relay are electrically open
The alarm relay comes configured as follows:
• Relay normal operation (default, as described above)
The following alarm relay configurations are available as a special order.
These must be specified at the time of order:
• Relay inverse operation (inverse functionality of the normal operation, used to conserve power)
• Relay disable (in case the relay is not required, used to conserve power)
The alarm relay is intended for low voltage (SELV) connection only.

Led Fault
In the event of a singular LED fault, either open circuit or closed circuit across the LED, the light unit will turn off all LED’s and actuate the Fault Relay.

The Obstruction Light offers a RS232 and a R2422/485 interface.

Optional IR Remote Control
The IR remote is used to communicate with Avlite lighting products that have an IR sensor fitted. The remote control is used for the following functions:
• Operational Mode: dusk-to-dawn, standby or always-on.
• Ambient Light Thresholds: read the current light thresholds, configure new ambient light thresholds.
• Perform a battery health check.
On receiving a valid key signal from the IR Remote, the light will flash once. The user should wait until the light responds to each keypress before pressing another key. If there is no response to the keypress after 3 seconds, it has not been detected by the light and the key can be pressed again.
If an invalid key is detected, the light will flash quickly 5 times.
In this case, the command will have to be restarted.

R B I The light flashes the Operational Mode. Modes are as follows:
1 flash = Always-On
2 flashes = Standby
3 flashes = Dusk-to-Dawn
Operational Mode
The light has three modes of operation: Always on, Standby Mode and Dusk-to-Dawn mode. These modes can be selected either via the IR remote control or via the GSM module (if fitted).
In Always On mode, the daylight sensor is disabled and the lantern will remain ON.
In Standby mode, the lantern is turned off and the daylight sensor is disabled. This mode does not affect the operation of the GSM module.
In Dusk-to-Dawn, the daylight sensor is enabled.

FAA L-864 Medium Intensity Obstruction Light
Universal AC & Universal DC Models
Optional GPS Synchronization
Avlite has utilized the latest advancements in GPS technology to develop an internal synchronization system that can be incorporated into the lights. Using overhead satellites, multiple obstruction lights set to the same flash pattern will flash in unison.
No additional power supplies, aerials or control systems are required, and with its microprocessor- based system, the GPS option is specifically designed to provide maximum reliability and performance over a wide range of environmental conditions.
Operating Principle
Each light operates independently and requires no operator intervention. A minimum of 4 satellites need to be in view for the built-in GPS receiver to collect time data. At dusk, the light sensor will turn the light on. If time data is available, the light will come on synchronized to every other light with the same selected flash code.
Synchronization is achieved using an internal algorithm based on the highly accurate time base and time data received from the satellites. The satellite data is provided from a number of earth stations using atomic clocks as the time base. Continuous self-checking ensures that the light will continue to run in synchronization.
Light Activation
At power-up the microprocessor checks that the internal GPS module is programmed correctly and is able to provide valid time base and time data.
Once outside with a clear view of the sky, valid data should become available within 20 minutes.
Daylight Operation
During daylight hours, the microprocessor is in idle mode to reduce power consumption.
Time data continues to be updated once per second. The microprocessor will automatically exit the idle mode as soon as dark conditions are detected.
Latest products and information available at www.avlite.com
19
Dark Operation
When dark conditions are detected the light:
• Checks for valid time data and is turned on after a delay based on the current time and the length of the selected flash code;
• If valid time data is not detected the light will turn on after approximately 10 seconds.
This light will not be synchronized.
• If the light turns on unsynchronized it will continually check for valid time data. Once valid data is found the light will automatically synchronize.
Lights will not synchronize if different flash codes are selected.
GPS Power Demand
The GPS synchronization feature has been designed to function with a very low power demand. Typically, the total 24hr current used by the GPS module is 36mAh. This is approximately equivalent to 8 minutes of solar charging.

Optional GSM Monitoring & Control
The Avlite obstruction light is available with GSM Cell-Phone Monitoring, enabling operators to remotely monitor the status of their installation. The system can also be configured to send out SMS text messages or e-mail alerts to designated operators should alarm conditions be triggered, such as low voltage or light failure.
Please contact Avlite for operational information for GSM Monitoring & Control
Troubleshooting
Problem
Light will not activate.
Remedy
• Ensure proper connectivity with power supply
• Ensure that the power supply has the right polarity and voltage range
• Cover the light sensor to force the light ON
