1.0 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Carmanah Model R829 school zone warning beacon, “the world’s
most advanced solar-powered LED school zone beacon.” Using LED illumination, the unit is
designed to operate flawlessly with no scheduled maintenance (other than routine cleaning) for
up to 5 years.
Combining advanced electronics and software with an innovative, patented combination of solar-
power and LED technology, the Model R829 has been designed to operate under all
environmental conditions at most locations throughout North America.
1.1
How It Works
Unlike programmable time clock systems, the R829 is programmed using an intuitive Windows-
based graphical user interface. The settings can be easily transferred to multiple R829 units.
Uploading the programmed settings occurs on site quickly and efficiently via a wireless link.
The R829 is completely power-autonomous - no wiring to an external power supply is required.
This allows a simple, low-cost installation even in locations where external power is unavailable.
It operates using solar-charged batteries that are maintenance free for up to five years when
properly installed.
The R829 can be ordered with one or a pair of flashing lights for each unit. When there are two
flashers, these can be mounted as a vertical dual flasher, a horizontal dual flasher, or a bi-
directional flasher depending on location requirements. When activated, drivers will see the lights
as a “bouncing-ball effect.”
Refer to the R829 School Zone Beacon Quick Start Guide in Appendix A or the School Zone
Calendar Configuration applications help files in Appendix B, and also included in the
programming software, for detailed information on setting up and uploading a custom-
programmed calendar to the R829.
