Trouble Shooting
ensure all tests are undertaken by a qualified, trained engineer.
ensure safe working practices are followed at all times.
Step 1: Basics
• Check polarity of Lamp connection
red=+ve, black=-ve
• Ensure power is 12-24V DC / 24V AC
• Check photocell is working-cover photocell, light should turn on.
• Ensure power supply is suitably rated to product - check page 6 for
specifications
• If longer cables used, ensure sufficient voltage is provided to allow for drops
across the cable
If OK…
Step 2: Lamp Test
• Check current draw of lamp corresponds to specification on page 6
To check lamp current remove +ve (red) lead from external power source and
connect multimeter (set to 10A) in line with the lamp. [One lead of multimeter in
common (COM), other lead into 10A socket of multimeter; set multimeter to read
Amps]. For correct current settings, see page 6.
Step 3: Set-up Camera, lens and illumination
• Check alignment of lamp
• Check camera lens – fully open at night & set correctly
• Check model number to RayLeD performance specification to ensure
required distance is achievable
Step 4: Contact RayLeD for further assistance
Note down:
• Model, Angle and Wavelength ve any options
• Serial Number of illuminator
• Camera make and model
• Lens make and model
