Framos HPSC Controller

A dedicated interface is available for the FRAMOS HPSC flash controllers for simplified setup. This eliminates the need for 3rd party tools to parameterize the controllers.

Information: The control units module must be loaded in EasySightPro®.

Range of functions:

  • Automatic search of all accessible devices via Ethernet

  • Intuitive user interface for setup

  • Dockable window for each device

  • Changing the device parameters (name, IP settings)

  • Export and import of parameters

Menu

The controller module scans for new devices in the background every 5 seconds and provides a menu item for each device found (even if it is not accessible) under Administration → Controllers.

User interface

Click on the control unit in the menu to open the corresponding user interface.

  Menu Description
Device The name and network settings can be changed via the device settings.
Print PDF Generates a PDF with all device settings.
Save XML Generates an XML file with all device settings.
Load XML Reads an XML file and loads all settings into the device if manufacturer and model are identical.
Name of the device.
Current IP address of the device.
Serial number of the device.
The current internal temperature of the device is displayed in the bar. The maximum temperature can be set in the input field.
Currently measured input voltage on the device. This information helps with troubleshooting if the connected power supply unit is supplying too little voltage.
Displays the current internal error (generated and reported by the device).
Specification of the available maximum input power from the power supply unit. This value is used to calculate the available control parameters.
Operating mode of the device.
This must be matched to the set operating current of the lighting, otherwise the lighting may be damaged.
Trigger edge for activating the control.
Mode Activates/deactivates the input.
Delay Delay from detection of the input signal to activation of the lighting output in microseconds (µs).
Illumination ON Duty cycle of the illumination in microseconds (µs).
This must be adjusted to the set operating current of the illumination, otherwise the illumination may be damaged.
Pause min. Minimum pause between two switch-on cycles in microseconds (µs).
Trigger counter Number of trigger events counted.
Testing Manual triggering of the trigger signal. This function is not available in all operating modes.
Preset current for controlling the illumination.
This must be matched to the set duty cycle of the lighting and the operating mode, otherwise the Lighting can be damaged.
Number of the trigger input that controls the illumination.
Current Measured current in milliamperes (mA).
Volatage Measured voltage in volts (V)
Maximum voltage specification for generating the currents.
Mode Activate or deactivate automatic calculation of the ideal voltage based on the maximum specifications.
Target Set target voltage in volts (V).
Measured Actual measured voltage in volts (V).

Change device settings

Information: Applying the new device configuration leads to a restart of the device and should therefore not be carried out during operation.

Name of the device. This is permanently stored in the device and is used for easier identification if there are several devices in the network.
Mode Dynamic or static IP address.
IP address if 'Static IP address' mode has been selected.
Subnet mask if 'Static IP address' mode was selected.
IP address of the gateway.
IP address of the preferred DNS server.
IP address of the alternative DNS server.

EasySightPro control unit

The FRAMOS HPSC controllers can be integrated as a EasySightPro® control unit via Administration → Administration → Control devices. However, they do not provide any features for changing the lighting settings via the test program administration.

If the controller is integrated as a control device, the connection is displayed and monitored in the EasySightPro status bar. If the controller loses the connection via Ethernet, this is visible in the status bar.
