OPERATION

• The most important thing when mounting the LED lamp with solar panel and motion sensor is to be aware that it requires DIRECT SUNLIGHT. The more direct sunlight the solar module receives, the longer the light will operate.
• Important: if the main unit is mounted horizontally, it should be mounted in a sufficiently covered area so rain water cannot enter the housing.

Main Unit

• The main unit consists of the LED spotlight (6), the motion sensor (8) and the rechargeable battery. When you are planning the installation location of the main unit, keep in mind that the motion sensor that actives the light, has a “field of vision” of approx. 12 meters in front of the light (for movements sidewise to the motion sensor) and about 180º horizontally.
• To mount the unit vertically for use as a security type of light, attach the main unit to a solid surface as shown in figures A and B. To mount the main unit horizontally for use as a convenience type of light, attach the unit as shown in figure C. Use the included screws or other suitable screws depending on the consistency of the ground.

Solar Module

• The solar module (4) is the power source for the LED lamp with motion sensor. Make sure that the solar module is exposed to DIRECT SUNLIGHT for as long as possible.

Mounting and Start-up

1. For installing the main unit, use the included screws or other suitable screws and wall plugs depending on the consistency of the ground.
2. You can adjust the motion sensor horizontally and vertically. For vertical adjustment, unscrew the wing screw at the joint of the motion sensor and hand tight the wing screw after adjusting the motion sensor. To adjust the motion sensor horizontally, grasp the whole sensor and turn it very carefully to the left or to the right to the desired position.
3. Connect the feed cable (2) of the solar module with the main unit. Make sure to mount the main unit in a covered area so water cannot enter the unit.

Set the AUTO/OFF switch (9) to the position OFF.

AUTO-OFF

1. Leave the switch in the OFF position for at least 3 sunny days.
2. After the initial charge, set the switch to the AUTO position.

• Note: If the LED lamp flashes in regular intervals, the batteries are empty. Expose the solar module to direct sunlight in order to recharge the batteries.

Adjusting the Motion Sensor

• There are three adjusting knobs on the motion sensor: TIME, SENS and LUX.

TIME – Illumination Time:

• Setup how long the unit stays lit after motion stops in the field of vision of the motion sensor. The time can be set from 10 seconds to 1 minute. Please note, once the light has been triggered by the sensor any subsequent detection will start the timed period again from the beginning.

SENS – Sensitivity Adjustment:

• The sensitivity of the motion sensor will be affected by the ambient temperature. The higher the temperature (e.g. in the summer), the higher the sensitivity
• setting of the motion sensor must be set in order to “detect” motion within the field of vision. So you can adjust the SENS knob to compensate the change of sensitivity affected by the ambient temperature.

LUX – Lux Control Level/Ambient Light Adjustment:

• The lux control module has a built-in sensing device (photocell)
  that detects daylight and darkness. Turn the knob towards (☼) to have the motion sensor turning on the light during day and night, turn it to to have the light activated only at night.

• Note: If the light turns on in bright light conditions, turn the control towards However if the light does not turn on at night time, turn this control towards the icon. This may when there are bright street lights or house lights.

Final Adjustment, Alignment and Test

1. Point the motion sensor towards the area in which you want to detect motion.
2. Turn the TIME knob (10) to the minus (-) position. When you are walking slowly within the detection area, the sensor can detect thermal radiation emitted by you and then turn on the light.
3. Test the coverage of the area by walking slowly around the area and readjust the sensor if necessary. Please keep in mind that the motion sensor does not detect directly oncoming movement very well.
4. Point the LED floodlight towards the area you want to illuminate.

Adjusting the Solar Module

1. Always align the front side of the solar module horizontally pointing to the sun at noon – this means to the south on the northern hemisphere and to the north on the southern hemisphere. If necessary, use a compass.
2. The vertical angle of the module should correspond to the degree of latitude of your position. This ensures the best energy efficiency during the whole year.

• Alternatively to the method described above you can use the following formula to calculate the angle for winter or summer:
• Summer = Latitude – 22.4° / Winter = Latitude + 22.4°.
• For Lizard Point in Cornwall UK, the following calculation is made:
• Summer = 50° – 22.4° = 27.6° / Winter = 50° + 22.4° = 72.4°
• Keep the module out of the shade and mount it in an area exposed to the sun all day to achieve the maximum energy efficiency.
• Note:
• If the unit is positioned close to strong radio transmitters, malfunctions of the motion sensor are possible. Strong radio transmitters may be amateur radio operators in the neighbourhood or transmitters for mobile communications or broadcast stations. In this case it is possible that the lamp will turn on although no one is in the field of vision of the sensor.

Replacing the Battery

• If the battery cannot be charged after several sunny days, have the rechargeable battery replaced.
• Have the battery unit only replaced by an expert.

Cleaning

• It is important that the solar module is kept free from dirt and debris. A dirty solar module cannot bring the battery to a full charge and this will shorten the service life of the battery and the light cannot function properly.
• Wipe the housing with a lightly moistened cloth. Do not use aggressive chemicals or abrasives for cleaning.
