HOW SOLAR LIGHT WORKS
Solar light must be placed outdoors. The solar panel collects and converts
sunlight into DC power while the pre-installed rechargeable batteries store
the energy to power the light at night.
Solar light illumination time
It depends on the seasonal sunlight availability in your geographical area
under certain weather conditions. Stronger or longer sunlight hours enable
batteries to store more energy which provides more lighting hours. On the
contrary, weaker or shorter sunlight hours reduce the lighting hours and its
brightness as well.
Solar panel mounting locations
Solar panel must be placed outdoor at a location with its solar panel
receiving direct sunlight at least five hours each day. Shadowed locations
will not allow batteries to be fully charged and will reduce both the
brightness of the light and the lighting hours. Precautions (prior to first time
use)
1.
To maximize battery capacity, the solar panel should be fully
charged by direct sunlight for five hours before initial use.
2.
Under extremely cold temperatures, the batteries may not charge
fully. In such cases, the Solar Lights may not stay illuminated as
long.
MOUNTING SOLAR PANEL
This solar panel includes
a permanent mounting
system that allows for
mounting to square/round
poles or flat surfaces such
as a wall or post shown in
figure 1.
Position the solar panel in
a location that receives
the maximum amount of
sunlight throughout the
day. This may need adjusted depending on the season. With pole mounting,
loosen the adjustment bolts to fit solar panel onto pole. Once mounted,
tighten bolts snug to secure panel to pole. For surface mounting, remove
additional plate and use the existing mounting holes to mount directly to
surface.
MOUNTING HORN
Connect the speaker to the horn with #14 AWG wire minimum to obtain full
performance. Wiring length should be limited to 200 feet. Longer wire
lengths require increased wire gauge.
The metal cabinet must be grounded and may be mounted in either a
horizontal or vertical position.
MULTI-SOUND SIREN MODULE
WARNING:
Failure to follow all safety precautions and instructions may
result in property damage, serious injury or death. Always disconnect power
to the Siren Amplifier prior to installation or adjustment of the Multi-sound
Siren Module.
