Use cases
  • For panels with up to 10 devices
  • For space restricted setups / ICT.
  • For panels with up to 24 devices
  • For maximum speed (for minimum signal line length as close as possible at needle connectors).
  • For minimizing number of USB connection to the fixture module
  • When space in ICT is not critical
  • For space distributed programming stations.
  • For panels with up to 48 devices
  • For maximum speed (for minimum signal line length as close as possible at needle connectors).
  • When space in ICT is not critical
  • For space distributed programming stations
  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 If space is limited, it is possible to remove the Flasher Compact without the housing. The bare PCB provides mounting holes.
  2. ↑ 2.0 2.1 It is not recommended to directly connect Flasher to Hub, please always use a powered USB-Hub.
  3. ↑ Due to a hardware limitation of the USB host controller IC, the number of enumerable device endpoints is limited to 31. Some USB hubs (especially USB-3) occupy up to 3 device endpoints. Therefore, it may be a challenge to connect all 24 flashers and the fail-save USB drive. If you have such problems, please contact SEGGER. We also offer USB hubs that avoid these problems: Segger USB Hub
