The purpose of the project was to design an improved airport lighting control panel for use in airport traffic control towers. Data on the physical characteristics of in-use panels and operational experience of users were collected at nine control towers in the Eastern Region. The need for a cleanly designed, compact, and easily read and activated lighting system display/control panel was documented. An important feature of this design is that the operation of the auxiliary systems is contingent upon the activation of the main runway lights in such a manner as to minimize the number of control units.
