Setting Intensity of Infrared (IR) output
The intensity of the IR output is linearly proportional
to the effective intensity setting. The higher the
effective intensity, the more intense the
simultaneous intensity of IR. At 33cd effective
intensity, the IR output is 0.4 mW/St peak.
For all other applications:
1. If you have not already done so,
establish a connection to the lantern.
2. The lantern LEDs will flash to confirm
the lantern is ready to receive
commands.
or
3. Navigate to the EInt menu or press
the
(B)
button to jump directly to this
function
4. Unlock the existing setting
5. Use the number keys to direct enter
the desired Effective Intensity.
6. Lock the new setting
7. The lantern LEDs will flash to confirm
that the new setting has been locked.
The 800 series has intelligent
settings to prevent the lantern from
running with certain Flash
Character and Effective Intensity
combinations. You may receive an
error (Err) message if you are
attempting to enter a value that is
not compatible with your
programmed Flash Character.
Choose a lower value or modify
your Flash Character to resolve
this issue.
Activating/De-activating Automatic
Light Control (ALC)
When ALC mode is set to
“on”, the lantern monitors
the battery p
ack’s state of health and reduces the
intensity level if there is insufficient solar energy to
maintain the battery pack.
1. If you have not already done so,
establish a connection to the
lantern.
2. The lantern LEDs will flash to
confirm the lantern is ready to
receive commands.
3. Navigate to the ALC menu
4. Unlock the existing setting
5.
Toggle between “on” and “off”
6. Lock the new setting
7. The lantern LEDs will flash to
confirm that the new setting has
been locked.
To quickly change ALC settings,
you may direct enter one of the
following quick access codes:
8-0-1
(to activate)
8-0-0
(to deactivate)
When ALC intervenes, the LEDs
brightness is reduced. Set the ALC
to off if your application demands
that the lantern meets specific
intensity requirements at all times.
