plug from the transformer connector on the control module. Plug the
transformer cable into the transformer connector.
BATTERY OPTION
Note: Should you choose to run your sensor faucet on battery power, it will require (4) AA alkaline batteries.
-
If the AC adapter is plugged in, unplug it from its power source and the control module.
-
With the help of a Philips head screwdriver, remove the battery cover’s three (3) fasteners and pull cover away from the control box.
-
Replace old batteries if needed.
-
Install the new AA batteries, making sure that the + and – ends are facing the correct direction.
Return the battery cover to its spot and tighten fasteners. -
With the disconnection of power, the sensor range is saved and will revert to the last setting when power is restored.
Note: For the Hydro Generator (EC-HYDROGEN) power option, refer to the instruction manual in the EC-HYDROGEN kit ordered separately. For hard wiring and hard wire ganging (EC-HARDWIRE) and easy-wire (EC-EASYWIRE) ganging power options , refer to the instruction manual in each respective kit when ordered separately.
SENSOR RANGE SETUP
The sensor range is preset at the faucet during assembly but can be further adjusted by using the steps below.
- The sensing distance is adjustable from ¾” (2cm) to 6 11/16″ (17cm). If there is a disruption in power, the sensor range is saved and will revert to the last setting when power is restored.
- The faucet sensor range is set by simply using the on/o button on the front of the control module. Do not attempt to open the control module box.
- Push and hold the on/o button; water will flow. After holding the button 5 to 7 seconds, the water flow will stop and the red LED in the sensor lens will turn on solid.
- Release the on/o button. The red LED will turn o signalling that the sensor is ready for set-up for the next 15 seconds.
- Hold your hand still in front of the sensor at the desired sensor distance. The red LED will flash roughly 5 times then remain on for 2 seconds indicating the new range has been set.
- If step 5 is not done within 15 seconds, the red LED will blink quickly then stop indicating the sensor range has NOT been changed. Start over at step 3 to change the sensor range.
OPERATION
-
Place hands under spout. Water will flow for as long as the user’s hands remain within sensor range and will shut o after 15 seconds (time adjustable).
-
Keep electronic eye cover clean.
-
Red flashing in the electronic eye indication low batteries.
(Replacement batteries: Alkaline AA.) -
Solid red light in the electronic eye and no water flow indicated batteries are dead.
-
When used in conjunction with the optional AC adapter, the faucet will automatically switch to
AC power and conserve its battery power. Fresh alkaline batteries should last 450,000 on/o cycles.
Running Time Range: 15 seconds – 20 minutes (6 presets selectable)
Response Time: 0.3 seconds
Sensing Range: 3/4” to 6-11/16” (2-17 cm) from sensor
Power Source: AC and/or DC
Low Battery Indicator: Red LED on
CARE AND CLEANING OF CHROME AND SPECIAL FINISHES
DO NOT use abrasive or chemical cleaners (including chlorine bleach) to clean faucets as they may dull the luster and attack the chrome or special decorative finishes. Use ONLY soap and water, then wipe dry with clean cloth or towel. While cleaning the bathroom tile, the faucet should be protected from any splattering of cleaner. Acids and cleaning fluids will discolor or remove chrome plating. Do not use abrasive or chemical cleaners on the sensor lens as this will damage it and a ect operation.
FEATURES
AUTO-ADJUSTMENT SCAN PERIOD
Two scan periods of 0.4 seconds or 0.7 seconds are automatically adjusted. The
scan period at 0.4 seconds occurs while the faucet is at standby. The scan
period will change to 0.7 seconds when the faucet detects an object in the
front of the sensor.
WATER FLOW CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS
The ChekPoint controller o ers a selection of pre-set flow control
adjustments. These selections are made by configuring a bank of six switches,
SW(1) to SW(6), according to the tables below.
The flow control switches are located inside the ChekPoint control module in a black box next to the battery compartment. To access the switches, remove the (4) screws and back cover of the control module.
AUTO TIME-OUT ADJUSTMENT (SWITCHES 1-3)
The ChekPoint controller provides six periods to select from for shutting o
the water when the object is left in front of the electronic eye. The time
periods to select from are: 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 45 seconds, 60 seconds, 3
minutes and 20 minutes. The default setting is 15 seconds. Note: The chart
below indicates the switch positions required for each auto time-out mode.
AUTO-FLUSH (SWITCH 4)
The ChekPoint controller o ers the option to select the Auto Flush mode in
switch 4 position. When enabled, the controller will flush the ChekPoint
faucet every 12 hours for 25-30 seconds when the faucet is not used. Default
setting from the factory is in the “o ” position.
WATER SHUT-OFF DELAY ADJUSTMENT (SWITCHES 5 & 6)
The ChekPoint controller provides four periods to select from for shutting o
the water when the object is removed from in front of the electronic eye. The
time periods to select from are: 1 second, 10 seconds, 15 seconds, and 30
second. The default setting is 1 second.
LOW BATTERY DETECTION
- A red flashing light in the electronic eye indicates low batteries.
- A solid red light in the electronic eye and no water flow indicates the batteries are dead.
- The user should change new batteries immediately.
POWER SAVING
- If the electronic eye (sensor) has not detected object motion within 30 minutes, the controller will enter its lowest scan period of 1.4 seconds
- When object motion is detected, the controller will change the scan period from 0.4 seconds to 0.7 seconds and change back to 0.4 seconds when the object removed.
ANTI-INTEFERENCE SYSTEM
- Sunlight or other types of lighting may interfere with the distance sensing range. In this case, the controller will compensate the sensing distance to a safe range temporarily. The controller will adjust the distance to the normal range when no interference is detected.
Q&A
Q: Can I operate the faucet manually, without using the electronic eye?
A: Yes. Press the on/off button and water will start flowing. To turn water off , press on/off button again. If you forget to turn the water off , the faucet will automatically turn it off at the set Auto Time-Out time (see Auto Time-Out Adjustment section).
Q: What is the optimal sensing distance?
A: About 2” from sensor.
Q: Does the electronic eye require special maintenance?
A: In order for the sensor to function, the electronic eye must be clean. Use only mild soaps and water. Wipe with a soft cloth.
Q: Why doesn’t the water shut itself off after I have moved my hands away from the electronic eye?
A: Sensor range could be too long. User may have to adjust sensor range.
Q: No water will come out of the faucet and the red LED stays on. What is the problem?
A: Replace the batteries.
