MARINE LANTERNS
Sabik Marine Controller (SMC) is the new generation lantern controller
(flasher) replacing the LEDFlasher in most of our lanterns. The new SMC
comes with all the proven solutions invented by Sabik for the previous
generation controllers. A wide range of new innovative functions are included
and we are setting a new standard for efficiency of flashers.
SMC is a versatile controller with a whole range of functions integrated as
standard and a variety of add-on options. Development and testing of the new
SMC has taken over 3 years with every single function carefully designed and
optimized by our engineering team.
Key features include:
Low energy consumption in all operating stages (daytime idle, night-time
active and between flashes). Consumption never exceeds 12 mW
(1 mA @ 12VDC)
Larger intensity dynamics from 5 % to 100 %
Wireless infrared communication link for configuration and maintenance
Daytime sensor calibrated in lux with user configurable levels
16 amp. PWM solar panel charger with temp sensor and user
controllable levels
Event log/black box that logs and stores all status changes in the lantern
Power output to LEDs measured, enabling accurate power management
of light
Options include:
New generation of GSM monitoring with integrated GPS receiver as
plug-in units
Power consumption of GSM monitoring less than 25 mW (2 mA) in average
Optical Feedback system for most of the Sabik lanterns
Tilt switch
Secondary
battery switch enables lantern to run on two battery sources,
one acting as hot standby.
User interfaces:
New
bluetooth programming available, easy with an android or IOS mobile
app
Windows PDA and Easy Programmer for configuration and data collection.
Collected data can be uploaded to a PC
New Windows based software for configuration and maintenance
Programmer Mk 2 for previous generation electronics

Sabik Marine Controller Feature
Wide input voltage range
range of up to 10 - 32 V enables operation with all kinds of DC power supplies
stable output intensity within the whole input voltage range
Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) solar panel charger
16 ampere (200 watts) charging current
Solar panel production Ampere Hour meter
measures and logs the total solar panel production and daily min/max current
Event log
stores all main events in memory
events include lantern start/stop, errors, change of setting, power failure
protected by a four week back up battery (capacitor)
Black box
same unit as the Event log, events stored in a non volatile Flash memory
Secondary battery interface
an auxiliary board enabling hot switch to a standby battery if the main battery fails
Cable sync
one wire cable sync, where all lanterns are masters and/or slaves
Output power measurement
measurement of power output to LED load is recorded
Operating hours counter
stores the lantern mileage in a non volatile memory
Wireless infrared communication port
IR port with secured two-way communication protocol
programming with Windows software or Windows Mobile device (PDA)
Wired communication port
RS-232 serial communication port
Intensity setting
Can be adjusted from 5 % to 100 %
Optical Feedback Monitoring
auxiliary OFBS sensor card that monitors LED degradation over time
available to most lanterns
Auxiliary card
enables connection of two external I/Os
can be used as a digital alarm output
RS 485 port integrated for connection to host system (MODBUS)
Tilt switch
switches off the light when the lantern is tilted over in close to horizontal position
(buoy in storage or under the ice)
LightGuard Bluetooth
Programming range up to 50m @50A
Connected within one second, no pairing required
