| Mode(s): | Default UI: Smooth rampingThis feature-rich UI provides for smooth ramping of the light output between 0 and 50%, with an easily- accessible 100% TURBO mode. Turn the FT03 ON: single-click the button, FT03 turns ON using the previously used light output level Ramp light level: press&hold button Reverse ramp: while ramping in one direction, release button briefly and press&hold again Instant TURBO: double-click Turn the Lamp OFF: single-click MOON mode: from OFF: press the button and release as soon as the FT03 turns on Strobes: double-click for TURBO, and then double-click again The strobes are deactivated by default. To enable strobes you must klick 3 times in setting #4 (ramping) or setting #8 (modes). (Use single-clicks to cycle forward through the different types of strobes, but you have to be quick: If resting on a strobe longer than 1.2 s it locks in and the next single- click is OFF. Press&hold at any time to cycle backwards through the strobes.) Battery status: triple-click (4 blinks, a short pause, then 1 blink would indicate 4.1 V average per cell, for example) Electronic lock-out: four clicks to disable the FT03, same to re-enable the Lamp MOMENTARY mode: five clicks (loosen and re- tighten the tail-cap to return to normal operation) Factory reset: triple-click (battery status mode), then double-click (driver temperature mode), double-click again (firmware version mode), then press&hold for about 2 s. Four blinks confirm a successful reset. | Default UI: Smooth rampingThis feature-rich UI provides for smooth ramping of the light output between 0 and 50%, with an easily- accessible 100% TURBO mode.

Alternative UI: Mode-setsThe FT03 is factory-set to operate using the contemporary RAMPING user interface, as described in the previous section. However, the FT03 can also be operated using a more conventional MODE-SET style user interface. (See next section for detail on how to set UI options). Using the MODE-SET UI the output does not ramp, it steps from one mode to the next using single-clicks. Turn the FT03 ON: single-click Next mode: single-click before the current mode ‘locks in’ (1.2 s) Previous mode: press&hold Last mode [100%]: from OFF: press&hold Turn the Lamp OFF: single-click button, after resting on a mode more than 1.2 s (mode locked in) Strobes: press&hold The strobes are deactivated by default. To enable strobes you must klick 3 times in setting #4 (ramping) or setting #8 (modes). (Use single-clicks to cycle forward through the different types of strobes, but you have to be quick: If resting on a strobe longer than 1.2 s it locks in and the next single- click is OFF. Press&hold at any time to cycle backwards through the strobes.) Battery status: from OFF: single-click followed by press&hold (4 blinks, a short pause, then 1 blink would indicate 4.1 V average per cell, for example) Electronic lock-out: from OFF: double-click followed by press&hold, same to re- enable the FT03 Factory reset: from OFF, single-click followed by a press&hold (battery status mode), then double-click (driver temperature mode), double-click again (firmware version mode), then press&hold for about 2 s.
