Indicator Values
Each indicator on a station can be set to one of 8 different colors (including black), with 4 intensity levels and 8 flashing patterns (including
“Off” and “On” states). These parameters are combined to provide 256 possible combinations, which can be expressed as a single 8-bit
number.
The three parameters can be combined in a binary fashion to produce a value from 0 to 255 as expressed by the following chart. Add the
values (in parenthesis) of each parameter together to calculate the desired indicator value. For example, the value 0 is “Off”, the value 255
is “Full White”, the value 139 is Fast Flashing Red at 75% brightness.
