(The Emisar D4, -D1, and D1S all use RampingIOS V2.) There's not really a manual; the only thing -we get is the diagram on the right. It's reasonably comprehensive, but there's -a fair amount of detail it merely summarizes, so I thought a textual manual -would be nice. - -The Emisar D4S only works when the head and tailcap are tightened fully. You -can physically lock it out--prevent it from turning on accidentally--by simply -loosening the tailcap a small amount. A quarter turn will do it. - -Emisar lights are known for their ramping interfaces. Rather than have a small -number of distinct brightness levels, they can vary their brightness anywhere -between their lowest and highest levels, like a light on a dimmer. The D4S is -in ramping mode by default, but it also has a stepped mode that can be -configured to be closer to how non-ramping lights work. - -Each mode--ramping and stepped--can have differently-configured brightness -floors and ceilings. - -The driver for the D4S has two different chipsets. At low brightness levels, a -fairly-efficient but low-power chipset (called a 7135) is used. These lowest -brightness levels are called the "regulated levels". Each regulated level will -always be the same brightness regardless of how much charge the battery has. -Above a particular brightness level, the light switches over to a -less-efficient but high-power chipset (called a FET). These levels are called " -direct-drive". The brightness of the direct-drive levels is directly related to -the battery's charge level; the more charged the battery, the brighter the -levels. The light is at its most efficient, in terms of power used for every -lumen generated, at the brightest regulated level. When the light is first -powered by tightening the tailcap, it will default to this level. - -At higher brightness levels, the light's LEDs generate a lot of heat. If the -light exceeds its configured maximum temperature, it will begin dimming itself -automatically until the temperature drops below the allowed maximum. - -The D4S has a set of cyan-colored auxiliary LEDs that can be on when the main -LEDs are off. You can configure the behavior of the aux LEDs. - - -Basic Usage ------------ - -The default mode for the light is ramping mode. Triple-pressing the button (3 -clicks) while the light is on will toggle between ramping and stepped mode. - -While the light is off, press and release the button (1 click) to turn it on. -It will turn on at the last-used brightness level. (This is called "mode memory -".) Immediately after loosening and tightening the tailcap (or after changing -the battery), the memorized level will be the light's max regulated level. - -When the light is on, 1 click will turn it off. The current brightness level -will be memorized for future use. There's a fraction of a second delay between -pressing the button and the light actually turning off. That's because of the -way the light processes input; it's waiting to make sure you're only going to -press the button once (since multiple presses will trigger other actions). - -When the light is on, holding the button down will brighten the light. In -ramping mode, the brightness will increase gradually ("ramping up"). In stepped -mode, the light will jump through increasing brightness levels. If you press, -release, and then hold the button, it will begin dimming. In ramping mode, the -brightness will decrease gradually ("ramping down"). In stepped mode, the light -will jump through decreasing brightness levels. While the light is changing, if -you release the button and immediately hold it again, the direction (dimming or -brightening) will switch. - -In ramping mode, while the light is ramping, it'll briefly blink off and on -again at two different brightness levels: the maximum regulated level and the -brightness ceiling. - -While the light is off, double-pressing the button (2 clicks) will immediately -jump to the brightness ceiling. - -While the light is on, 2 clicks will jump to the maximum brightness level, -regardless of the configured brightness ceiling. Another two clicks will go -back to the previous brightness level. - -While the light is off, if you hold the button the light will turn on at its -lowest level. If you continue holding the button, the light will begin -brightening from there. - - -Configuration Menus -------------------- - -The light has several different configuration modes. Each of those modes works -more or less the same way. The mode will have a series of menu items that it -will go through. For each menu item, the light will first blink a number of -times corresponding to the item number (first, second, etc.) After that, the -light will begin fluttering on and off fairly quickly. While the light is -fluttering, you can click the button a number of times; the light will count -the number of button presses and use that number as its new configuration for -that menu item. After a short period of time, the fluttering will stop and the -light will move on to the next menu item. After the light has gone through all -of the menu items, it will return to whatever mode it was in before entering -the configuration mode. - -If you don't press the button during a particular menu item's fluttering, that -item will remain unchanged. - - -Configuring the Basic Modes - -While the light is on, 4 clicks will enter ramping or stepped configuration -mode, depending on which mode the light was in before the 4 clicks. - -For ramping mode, there are two menu options: - - 1. Brightness floor (default 1/150) - 2. Brightness ceiling (default 150/150) - -During the floor configuration, press the button equal to the number of ramping -levels (out of 150) at which the floor should be. To set the lowest possible -floor, click the button once. - -The ceiling is configured similarly, but you press the button equal to the -number of steps away from maximum brightness. To set the highest possible -ceiling (at max brightness), click the button once. - -For stepped mode, there are three menu options: - - 1. Brightness floor (default 20/150) - 2. Brightness ceiling (default 120/150) - 3. Number of steps (default 7) - - -Other Modes ------------ - -The other modes largely involve multiple clicks from off. Most of them are not -generally needed for everyday use, but they supplement the light's basic -operations. - - -BattCheck/TempCheck Modes - -From off, 3 clicks will enter "BattCheck" mode, which blinks out the current -battery voltage. First it blinks the number of volts, then it pauses, then it -blinks out the tenths of volts. Thus, if the battery were at 3.5 volts, the -light would blink three times, pause, then five times. For zeroes, it gives a -very short blink. - -A fully-charged lithium-ion battery is 4.2 volts. The light considers 2.8 volts -to be an empty battery and won't turn on if the battery is at or below 2.8 -volts. - -The voltage sequence will continue blinking until you turn off the light with a -single click. - -While the light is in BattCheck mode, 2 clicks will enter TempCheck mode. -Instead of blinking out the battery voltage, the light will start blinking out -its current temperature in degrees Celsius, first the tens digit then the units -digit. Like BattCheck mode, the light will continue blinking out the -temperature until you turn it off with a single click. - -While the light is in TempCheck mode, 4 clicks will enter thermal configuration -mode. See the thermal configuration mode documentation below for how that -works. - - -Tactical Mode - -From off, 4 clicks will enter "tactical" or "momentary" mode. The light will -flash once to show that it's entered the mode. The auxiliary LEDs will turn off -(if they were on). In tactical mode, the light will turn on at its memorized -brightness for as long as the button is being held down. It will turn off as -soon as the button is released. - -There's no button press combination that will exit tactical mode. To exit it, -you will have to partially unscrew and retighten the tailcap. - - -Lockout Mode - -From off, 6 clicks will enter lockout mode. The light will flash twice to show -that it's entered the mode. There's a separate aux LED mode for lockout mode, -so you can tell whether the light is in lockout or not. - -In lockout mode, pressing the button will turn on the light at its lowest -brightness ("moonlight mode") for as long as the button is held down. - -Another 6 clicks will exit lockout mode. The light will flash twice to show -that it's left the mode. - -While in lockout mode, 3 clicks will cycle through the various settings for the -aux LEDs in lockout mode. The four modes are, in order: low, high, blink (on -high), and off. The default mode is blink. - -Remember that loosening the tailcap a quarter turn will also lock out the -light. Using the 6 clicks is called "electronic lockout", while turning the -tailcap is "physical lockout". - - -Aux LED Configuration - -From off, 7 clicks will cycle to the next aux LED mode. The four modes are, in -order: low, high, blink (on high), and off. The default mode is low. - - -Beacon Mode - -From off, 8 clicks will enter beacon mode. In beacon mode, the light will blink -on and off every few seconds. - -By default, the light will blink every two seconds. To change the timing, use 4 -clicks while in beacon mode. The light will enter a one-item menu. During the -flickering for input, press the button a number of times equal to the number of -seconds between blinks. - -1 click will exit beacon mode. - - -Thermal Configuration Mode - -From off, 10 clicks will enter thermal configuration mode. - -The menu items here are: - - 1. Current temperature (every click is one degree Celsius) - 2. Temperature ceiling (every click is one degree above 30?C) - -The "current temperature" item can be used to adjust the calibration of the -light's temperature sensor. To use it, make sure the light has been off long -enough that all of its components have cooled (or warmed) to the ambient -temperature. Check the ambient temperature using a thermometer you trust. Go to -thermal configuration mode, and enter the current temperature by clicking the -button a number of times equal to the temperature in degrees Celsius. (If it's -22?C, click the button 22 times.) - -You can check the default calibration by entering TempCheck mode from a -room-temperature light. The D4Ss are supposed to go through a temperature -calibration at the factory, so hopefully most of them won't need manual thermal -calibration. - -The temperature ceiling is simply the highest temperature the light should be -allowed to reach. Once it hits its temperature ceiling, it will progressively -dim itself until the temperature stabilizes below the ceiling. Note that the -number of clicks in that menu option is added to 30 to reach the actual -ceiling. (Thus, you can't set a ceiling below 31?C.) The maximum allowed -ceiling is 70?C. - -The default temperature ceiling is 45?C. - - -Static - - * zsh prompt - * PGP - * SSH - * MTA - * tutorials - * config files - * desktop - * books I own - * stuff I'm giving away - * Dr. Who eps I have - * bookmarks - * photos - * about - -Directory - - * Root (143) - + Books (32) - + Events (7) - o Burning Man (3) - o Camping (2) - o PDF (2) - + Geekery (36) - o Test (3) - + General (24) - + Links (12) - o Slashdot (1) - + MTA (22) - + Recipes (4) - + Video Games (6) - o FFXI (1) - -Archive - - ?August? -Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat - 1 2 3 4 -5 6 7 8 9 10 11 -12 13 14 15 16 17 18 -19 20 21 22 23 24 25 -26 27 28 29 30 31 - - ?2018? - Months -Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun -Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec - -Search - -[ ] -Powered by Google - -Currently Reading - -Recent Books - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -Copyright (C) 2018 Phil Gold - -Back to main page. - - * Valid HTML 4.01 - * Valid CSS 2 - * RSS syndication - * Valid RSS 1.0 - |
