Character of a light – is the distinctive combination of various aspects of a light (i.e. when lit, extinguished, coloured or white) which appear regularly or rhythmically allowing it to be identified (for example, fixed, flashing, group flashing, alternating). Lights with the same character exist, but should be separated in distance, so that they are outside each nominal light range, and not adjacent, to avoid confusion.
