Description

Whelen L31 LED Beacon component for Photon 2

[ko-fi.com]

YOU NEED TO READ THE GUIDE BELOW BEFORE USING. IF NO PHASE IS SET, THE BEACON WILL BE STEADY BURNING SPLIT COLOR!

COMPONENT NAME:

creeper_whelen_l31

You must subscribe to the Shared Textures for this addon to work.

This component has 41 warning flash patterns available for you to use!
Almost every pattern Whelen offers on the real thing is available on this component.
There are many patterns which have a Full or Split version, only a couple being full only or otherwise.

This is the phase format.

Phase = "_{F/SP}_{PATTERN###}:{PHASE OFFSET}",

{F/SP}: Options are F or SP. Controls if the beacon is split front/back or full. Some patterns do not have split head operation. See pattern list for details.
{PATTERN###}: Whelen pattern abbreviation. See list below for patterns.
{PHASE OFFSET}: Automatic Pattern Phase Offset in Degrees. If you are unfamiliar with what this means, see The Photon 2 Wiki Phasing section.[github.com]

Functional Example

--Two L31's w/Brush Guard, Opposite Sides, Full Head, Alternating, Red and Blue, Double Flash 120. { Component = "creeper_whelen_l31", Scale = 1, Position = Vector( 40, 0, 130 ), Angles = Angle( 0, 0, 0 ), SubMaterials = { ["creeper/whelen_l31/glass_inner"] = "creeper/shared/glass_red", }, States = { [1] = "R", }, Phase = "_F_DF120", -- No degree phase means Photon assumes it's the 0 degree phase. BodyGroups = { ["mount"] = 1, }, }, { Component = "creeper_whelen_l31", Scale = 1, Position = Vector( -40, 0, 130 ), Angles = Angle( 0, 0, 0 ), SubMaterials = { ["creeper/whelen_l31/glass_inner"] = "creeper/shared/glass_blue", }, States = { [1] = "B", }, Phase = "_F_DF120:180", BodyGroups = { ["mount"] = 1, }, },

SUPPORTED PATTERNS

Abbreviations for the Phase entry({PATTERN###}) are in BOLD.
The number indicates the rough Flashes Per Minute, bigger number = faster flashing.

*:This pattern is Full Head operation ONLY. Prefix with _F_.
†:This pattern supports Whelen Dynamic Variable Intensity (DVI).

Accessories

Glass SubMaterial Name
creeper/whelen_l31/glass_inner
You can find color textures in "creeper/shared/glass_{color}"

Mount BodyGroups
"mount"
0 – flat bottom mount
1 – brush guard
2 – B63 Mount for a 700 Series Lighthead
3 – chrome shelf mount

Whelen B63 Mount
To use the B63 mount, you need to have the Whelen 700 Series lighthead installed.
To use the B63 set the mount Bodygroup to 2, add a 700 Series Super-LED component and set its position to be the same as the L31 minus 4.05 on Y and 2.23 on Z. Here is an example positioned for SGM's Sutphen Ladder.

{ Name = "@rl31", Component = "creeper_whelen_l31", Position = Vector(-42.5, -280, 75.353), Angles = Angle(0, 180, 0), Scale = 1.0, SubMaterials = { ["creeper/whelen_l31/glass_inner"] = "creeper/shared/glass_amber" }, Phase = "_F_SA75:0", States = { [1] = "A", }, BodyGroups = { ["mount"] = 2, } }, { Inherit = "@rl31", Position = Vector(42.5, -280, 75.353), Phase = "_F_SA75:180", SubMaterials = { ["creeper/whelen_l31/glass_inner"] = "creeper/shared/glass_red", }, States = { [1] = "R", }, BodyGroups = { ["mount"] = 2, } }, { Component = "creeper_whelen_700_superled", Scale = 1, Position = Vector(-42.5, -280-4.06306, 75.353-2.23776), Angles = Angle( 0, 180, 0 ), SubMaterials = { ["creeper/whelen_700/glass_inner"] = "creeper/shared/glass_red", }, States = { [1] = "R", [2] = "R", }, Phase = "_F_SA75:180", BodyGroups = { ["flange"] = 5, }, }, { Component = "creeper_whelen_700_superled", Scale = 1, Position = Vector(42.5, -280-4.05, 75.353-2.23), Angles = Angle( 0, 180, 0 ), SubMaterials = { ["creeper/whelen_700/glass_inner"] = "creeper/shared/glass_amber", }, States = { [1] = "A", [2] = "A", }, Phase = "_F_SA75", BodyGroups = { ["flange"] = 5, }, },
