Moisture Protection
The lantern is equipped with a soft EPDM gasket at the base, as shown in
Figure 15, to provide sealing against water ingress.
CAUTION!
When installing the unit, make sure that proper flat washers are used. After
replacing batteries or servicing the inside of the unit, tighten the M6 hardware (8)
that secures the battery housing to the base. Tighten the customer supplied M12
mounting hardware (4) when mounting the self-contained assembly to the
structure. Check all hardware after installation is complete

Troubleshooting
Following is a guide for field troubleshooting the MaxiHalo II controller.
4.5.1 Mechanical Verification
Verify that all cables are intact and connections firmly seated. Verify that all
wiring is correct (see Figure 10 Internal Wiring Diagram).
4.5.2 Configuration Verification
Refer to Section 3.2
Configuration
to verify flash code and address settings.
4.5.3 Testing the Nova-65 SC
Assuming the Nova-65 SC has been turned on, cover the sunswitch with black
electrical tape and observe the Flasher operating. Confirm flashing of the unit
consistent with the preset timing code (see Section 3.2 Configuration). When
the flash code is set to 00 Hex the light should illuminate continuously.
When LEDs do not flash, use SignalView™ to assure the flasher is not in low-
voltage cutoff or other failure mode (see Section 4.5.4
Troubleshooting with
SignalView
™
). When not in any fail mode, then the problem is in either the
control circuit or the LED array.
