Please note the following while setting up the solar sensor:- Adjust the direction of the solar panel to face direct sunlight, maximizing its exposure for optimal charging and lighting performance.
- Point the sensor towards an open area, avoiding direct positioning towards trees or bushes. Clear line-of-sight to the desired monitoring area will improve detection accuracy.
-
Tilt the solar sensor slightly downward to avoid angling it upward, which may interfere with its detection capabilities.
-
The working transmission distance between the receiver and solar sensor is approximately 1/2 mile (800 meters) without obstructions. However, obstacles like buildings or large bushes may affect the transmission range. It is recommended to test the working distance between the receiver and sensor before final installation to ensure reliable communication.
Receiver Button Description
- Power Button: Pressing this button will emit two different sounds to indicate the power state of the receiver. A single “beep” signifies that the receiver is starting up, while three consecutive “beeps” indicate that the receiver is shutting down.
- Alarm Mode Switch Button: Pressing this button allows you to switch between alarm modes on the receiver. The default mode combines flashing lights and ringing. If you find the ringing sound bothersome, you can press this button to switch to ashing lights only.
- Volume Adjustment Button: The receiver offers six levels of volume. Each press of this button adjusts the volume level. Use it to set the desired volume based on your preference or environmental requirements.
Solar Sensor Low Battery Alert
When the solar sensor’s battery level is low, the Alert Zone Red LED on the receiver will flash, indicating that attention is required for the sensor’s battery. To address this, recharge the sensor or relocate it to a sunnier area. Once the sensor is charged, the receiver’s alert red LED will turn off.
