General Notes & Warnings
The LED SeaLite® light is designed and built for years of
reliable service.
This light was thoroughly pressure tested prior to leaving
the factory to confirm the integrity of the complete
assembly. While there should be no reason to repair the
LED SeaLite, this light is designed to be completely field
serviceable. No soldered wire connections or specialized
tools are required. All o-rings use viton material and
have an extended shelf life.
The LED SeaLite can run at full power in air. This light
is equipped with thermal sensing circuitry which will
automatically roll back the light output and prevent it
from overheating. The light will return to full brightness
once it is submerged and allowed to cool.
Reconfiguring the pin-out of the light is potentially
dangerous to the operator and can cause significant
damage to the light. Any change to the pin-out should
be done only through consultation with the factory in
order to provide proper documentation and new pinout labeling. Failure to do so will result in the loss of
warranty coverage for the light.
DANGER
When the LED SeaLite is operated in air, the light may
reach temperatures in excess of 65° C (150° F). These
temperatures may cause burns if the light is handled
without personal protective equipment.
While operating in air, this light emits sufficient photonic
energy to ignite combustible materials. When light is
operating in air, take appropriate precautions.
WARNING
Modifying the light in any way may damage the light and
void the warranty.
Do not clean any part of the light with solvent or alcohol.
Soapy water is recommended.
Do not operate any high voltage electrical equipment in
or around water without using proper safety equipment
such as a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) and an
isolation transformer, especially when divers are in the
water.

Operator’s Manual
Pre & Post Dive Inspection
Check to make sure that the rear bulkhead connector,
mating connector, and all mounting hardware are secure
before deployment.
Check the following areas for previous damage, wear,
or corrosion: rear bulkhead connector, power cable, and
front port.
Rinse the LED SeaLite in fresh water after use.
After each deployment, carefully check to make sure the
light is operational and has not flooded. If it has flooded,
the light can become internally pressurized upon
surfacing and create a potential danger. Additionally,
if the power remains on when the light has partially
flooded, it is possible for electrolytic generation of an
explosive mixture of hydrogen and oxygen gases. Point
the light away from persons and valuable equipment and
make sure that the power is disconnected.
Troubleshooting
If the light stops working while underwater, assume that
it has flooded.
If it has been determined that the light is not flooded,
and if the light does not turn on during pre-deployment
checks, check the input power cable/inline connector to
make sure that correct voltage is being supplied and that
the correct pin-out is being used. If the light still does
not work, return it to DSPL using the RMA Procedure for
Repair below.
RMA Procedure for Repair
For warranty and non-warranty repairs, please contact
DeepSea Power & Light for an RMA number prior to
returning the item. Please have the light model number,
serial number, and any other pertinent information along
with a description of the problem on hand when calling,
or include them in a fax or e-mail.

Limited Warranty
Seller warrants that the goods (except internal electronic
components) sold under this contract will be free from
defect in material and workmanship for a period of two
years from the date of shipment from the factory, if they
have been properly used. Internal electronic components
are warranted for 90 days from the date of shipment
from the factory, if they have been properly used. This
warranty will be limited to the repair or replacement of
parts and the necessary labor and services required
to repair the goods. IT IS EXPRESSLY AGREED
THAT THIS WARRANTY WILL BE IN LIEU OF ALL
WARRANTIES OF FITNESS AND IN LIEU OF THE
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY. This warranty
is the exclusive and only warranty to pass with the
goods under this contract. No agent, employee, or
representative of the Seller has any authority to bind
Seller to any information, representation, or warranty
concerning the goods sold under this contract, and
unless an affirmation, representation, or warranty
made by an agent, employee, or representative is
specifically included within this contract, it will not be
enforceable by Buyer. If notice of defect is given to
DeepSea Power & Light, Inc. within such 90 day or twoyear warranty period, the sole obligation of DeepSea
Power & Light, Inc. shall be to furnish new or repaired
parts free of charge in exchange for parts which have
been proved defective and does not include any other
costs such as the cost of removal of the defective part,
installation, labor, or consequential damages of any
kind, the exclusive remedy being to require DeepSea
Power & Light, Inc. to furnish such new parts. Under
no circumstances shall the Buyer be entitled to recover
any incidental damages as that term is defined in
Commercial Code §2715.
When shipping the item, be sure that the freight is prepaid (CODs will not be accepted) and that the RMA
number is clearly printed on the outside of the box.
The DSPL SeaSense serial protocol is used to control enabled products in real-time over standard EIA-485
(RS-485) and EIA-232 (RS-232) industrial serial communications interfaces.
While the physical topology of these serial interfaces can differ signicantly, this protocol is designed to
operate equally well in each environment. The SeaSense protocol uses ASCII character commands, making
them human readable. Strict command string formatting and an optional check-sum eld offer robust, error-
tolerant communications in harsh environments and mixed-protocol network installations. DeepSea strongly
recommends host-side electrical isolation to the physical serial interfaces wherever serial interfaces are used
in subsea environments to limit risks to the host platform as dangerous voltages may be present in the LED
SeaLite.
The SeaSense protocol allows for an unparalleled exibility in the use and operation of the LED SeaLite. Using
the protocol, operators and system integrators can:
®
• Control the light output level and remap the dimming curve to t application requirements.
• Monitor system parameters and diagnostic information such as total run time, internal temperature, and
number of power cycles.
• Congure the serial interface by setting baud rates, device addresses, switching between EIA-232 or EIA-
485 serial interfaces, and enabling a termination resistor for EIA-485 operation.
• Control power usage by putting the device into a low power standby mode or limiting the maximum light
output level.
• Quickly switch between sixteen user preset states for light output and standby mode and congure the
power-on state to one of these user presets.
• Operate multiple units over a single serial interface and use group addresses (up to 32 per device) or send
global address to efciently control more than one device with a single command.
