Gardasoft TR Series LED Strobe Controllers

Gardasoft TR Series LED Controllers are a core component of a triniti Intelligent Lighting system. triniti is a new enabling technology from Gardasoft, which provides expert control, operational intelligence and full integration of Machine Vision lighting – all within a ‘plug & play’ environment.

Key features:

1, 2 and 4 channel LED lighting controllers
Compatible with triniti Intelligent Lighting platform
GigE Vision compliant
Pulsing up to 20A
Continuous output to 3.0A
30W maximum output per channel
Pulse timing to 20µs
Ethernet and Push-button interfaces (dependent on model)

Triniti application benefits

Enables non-expert users to use expert Machine Vision lighting techniques
Revolutionises the integration of lighting parameters right through to application level software
Addresses the industry’s need for a flexible system that is readily ‘plug & play’
Provides a stability of brightness, long-term, that helps to enhance the reliability of Vision systems, over many years
