PLEASE FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS
FOR CORRECT INSTALLATION:
•
The average full sun exposure period in the installation location should be above
3.5 hrs per day in order to ensure a normal battery function.
•
Always install the solar light in a position with the solar panel facing the equator
for charging optimisation (north in southern hemisphere).
•
For best results, adjust tilt to at least 15 degrees for northern states and up to
35 degrees for southern states. This helps with charging optimisation and self
cleaning.
•
Ensure the angle of the solar panel is adjusted to capture the most sun and is
away from shade where possible.
Pre-installation notes
Pre-installation checks and tests
•
Please conduct these tests and checks before mounting the solar light.
•
Before installation, press the power switch and check that the red indicator light
within the sensor is illuminated. Place the solar light on a flat surface facing up
or cover the panel (to activate the night time mode) and check the light module
illuminates (normally within 1 minute).
•
Before installation ensure the battery is charged.
•
Ensure the pole or mounting surface you are installing the solar light on is suitable
for mounting the weight and wind effects on the solar light.
Solar area lights
1.
Remove the light and bracket from the box.
2.
Install the bracket onto the light and adjust the angle to suit the installation (15-35
degrees recommended in instructions above).
3.
Press the power switch and check that the red light on the sensor is illuminated.
If not, press the ON/OFF button on the remote control. If the indicator light is still
not on, use a charger to charge the solar lights inbuilt battery. We recommend a
DC16V 5A (MAX) charger.
4.
Use the supplied remote control to set the operation mode. The light module will
flash twice when receiving signal from the remote control. The default setting is
induction mode 40%-100%.
5.
Mount the solar light to the pole securely and adjust the LED module angle to suit
the installation.

1.
ON/OFF
Turn the light ON or OFF (when turned OFF solar charging is disabled).
2.
Sync/test
To sync the remote control with the light, press and release the button. To test, press
it once. After 10 seconds of test mode, the light goes back to the previous mode.
3.
Induction mode 40% - 100%
This mode allows a constant 40% brightness (from dusk to dawn) unless motion is
detected and then increases to 100% output for 120 seconds.
4.
Induction mode 20% - 80%
This mode allows a constant 20% brightness (from dusk to dawn) unless motion is
detected and then increases to 80% brightness for 30 seconds. This mode increases
the run time of the light and is very helpful for areas with decreased charging time
frames.
5.
Time control mode A
This mode is a time based control mode. After dusk the first 0.5 hr is at 70%
brightness, the following 3 hrs is at 100% brightness, the following 1 hr is at 70%
brightness, the following 1hr is at 50% brightness, and then the final 5.5 hrs or until
dawn it is at 20% brightness.
6.
Time control mode B
This mode is the second time based control mode. After dusk the first 0.5 hr is at
70% brightness, the following 3 hrs is at 100% brightness, the following 1 hr is at
70% brightness, the following 1 hr is at 50% brightness, the following 4.5 hrs is at
20% brightness and the final 1hr it is at 100% brightness.
