DOME LIGHT OPERATION (NEW CONFIGURATION)
GENERAL
The Intelligent Dome Light System is an LED light, which uses the vehicle batteries or a rechargeable battery
inside the dome light assembly. The dome light monitors vehicle batteries and when they fall below a value of
21 Vdc, the system automatically shifts to low voltage operation. The blue light will flicker when the selector switch
is off.
NOTE
•
White Light is for non-combat activity. Blue Light is for combat activity.
•
During normal operation of the vehicles batteries the light intensity is between
0 and 100 percent.
•
During light emergency operation the light intensity is between 20 and 100 percent.

white light.
