General Information
General
. The Carmanah M800-series lanterns are 3 to 7 NM self-contained LED lanterns with
an extruded metal frame, polycarbonate base, clear polycarbonate optic head, and an LED
information display. Five metal bird deterrent wires (included) may be attached to the top lens
cover with screws. Please use them if there is any possibility for bird guano fouling. The handle
is sufficiently reinforced to act as an attachment point when transporting or hoisting the lantern.
There are no top-mounted solar panels. The optic head and battery packs are replaceable. The
M850 is approximately 9” tall, 9-¼” wide at the base, and weighs approximately 10 lbs. The
M860 is 13” tall, 9-¼” wide at the base, and weighs approximately 22 lbs.
Digital LED Display (Tap-to-Activate)
. The new top-mounted digital LED display provides
essential summary information about your lantern. To activate the LED display, quickly tap the
optic head (or the left “shoulder” of the lantern)
three times
. The display will show the primary
settings for the lantern in the following sequence: Lantern Status, Battery State-of-Charge &
Battery Voltage, Lantern Flash Rhythm, Lantern Effective Intensity, ALC on/off, and Calendar
on/off.
Alternatively, the
Information Key
on the IR remote control programmer can be used
instead to access and display this same important summary information without having to tap-to-
activate. The tap feature cannot be used to program the lantern - the IR remote programmer is
the only way to program the lantern and display
all
of the settings on the digital LED display.
Programming with the IR Remote Control Programmer
. All programming and additional
menu options are available only while the lantern is in the
on
mode. The M800-series lanterns
do not need to be
transitioned
between day and night modes in order to program them (as
Carmanah’s older M700-series lanterns required). Programming works best in a bright room.
To conserve battery power, the lantern searches for a signal from the IR programmer on a
continual 0.5 second cycle. Press the
Power Key
on the IR remote control programmer
