OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

After mounting and connecting your Inverter according to the instructions in this manual, use the ON/OFF/REMOTE switch to choose the Inverter’s operating mode.

ON: When you set the switch to the ON (I) position, the Inverter provides AC power to connected equipment by converting DC power from your vehicle’s battery. The green LED will illuminate to indicate it is working.
OFF: Set the switch to the OFF (O) position to shut down the Inverter completely. Doing this will prevent it from drawing power from your vehicle’s battery. Also set the switch to the OFF position to reset the Inverter if it has shut down due to low battery, overload or other critical condition.
REMOTE: When you set the switch to the REMOTE (II) position, the Inverter provides AC power to connected equipment by converting DC power from your vehicle’s battery.The green LED will illuminate to indicate it is working.You can then power the inverter ON/OFF from a remote location via the included remote. This remote switch can be mounted in the vehicle or a permanent mount application. The green LED on the remote will illuminate to indicate the inverter is in the ON operating mode.

1. Connect the Inverter (see CONNECT-ING INVERTER CABLES).
2. Switch the Inverter’s ON/OFF switch to the ON (I) position. If you are using the included remote panel, set the switch to the REMOTE (II) position and press the ON button on the remote panel.
3. The green LED indicator will illuminate on the unit or remote panel (If installed), indicating the Inverter is receiving power.
4. Switch the Inverter’s ON/OFF/REMOTE switch to the OFF (O) position. The green LED may flash briefly and/or the internal speaker may beep briefly. This is normal.
5. Make sure the device(s) to be operated is turned OFF.
6. Plug the device(s) into the Inverter’s AC outlet(s).
   POWER SOURCE
   Your average automobile battery at full charge will provide an ample power supply to the inverter when the engine is on. Keep the car running at all times when using the inverter. The actual length of time the inverter will function depends on the age and condition of the battery and the power demand being placed by the device being operated with the inverter.
   When possible, recharge your batteries when they are not more than 50%discharged. This gives the batteries a much longer life cycle than recharging when they are more deeply discharged.
7. Switch the inverter’s ON/OFF/REMOTE switch to the ON (I) or REMOTE (II) positions. If using the remote position, connect the cable connector to the RJ11 jack on the unit labeled REMOTE and press the ON/OFF momentary switch to power the inverter.
8. Turn the device(s) on.
9. To disconnect, reverse the above procedure.

The power inverter has a battery low voltage shutdown at 10V±0.5V DC. With moderate to heavy loads, this will protect against over-discharging the battery. If the inverter is running only light loads it is advisable to recharge before the inverter low voltage shutdown point is reached.

IMPORTANT: The inverter draws low amperage from the battery with the main ON/OFF switch turned on and no load connected. To prevent battery discharge, turn the inverter off when you are not using it.

LED INDICATOR AND SHUTDOWN PROTECTION

The Green LED lights automatically when the inverter is plugged into a 12 volt
DC power source and is turned on. The Red LED lights, the alarm sounds and the inverter automatically turns itself off under the following conditions:

1. When the power input from the vehicle’s battery drops to approximately 10.5 volts, the low voltage alarm will sound. When the voltage goes down below 10 VDC, the inverter shuts off. Recharge or replace the battery.
2. When the power input from the vehicle’s battery exceeds 16 volts, high voltage protection occurs.
3. The continuous load demand from the equipment or device being operated exceeds the continuous load rating of the inverter. Use a higher capacity inverter or lower rated device.
4. The thermal resistor exceeds 80° C (176° F.) Allow the inverter to cool.

RESET: To reset after shutdown occurs, switch the inverter’s ON/OFF switch to the OFF (O) position. Check the source of the problem and correct. Switch the inverter’s ON/OFF switch to the ON (I) position.

IF THE INVERTER’S FUSE BLOWS

Your power inverter is fitted with fuses, which should not have to be replaced under normal operating conditions. A blown fuse is usually caused by reverse polarity or a short circuit within the device or equipment being operated.
If a fuse does blow, take the inverter to a technician for repair.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Before each use, ensure that all of the inverter’s components are in place and in good working condition.
2. After use and before performing maintenance, unplug and disconnect the inverter.
3. Use a clean, dry cloth to wipe external surfaces of the inverter’s case.
4. Servicing does not require opening the unit, as there are no user-serviceable parts. All servicing should be performed
5. Store inside, in a cool, dry place, out of the reach of children.
6. Recycle or properly dispose of internal electrical components.

PARTS LIST AND ASSEMBLY DIAGRAM

OPERATION

1. Before the Solar Motion Light can operate to its full capacity, the Solar Panel needs to be in sunlight for 3 days to fully charge the included battery. Charging should be done with the unit in the “OFF” position.
2. Located at the bottom of the Battery Housing (5) there is a switch with three positions:

• Turn the switch to the “AUTO” position, the light will turn on automatically at night when motion is detected by the Motion Detector Head (6).
• Turn the switch to the “ON” position, the light can be used as a standard light for constant illumination.
• Turn the switch to the “OFF” position, the light will remain off and will not detect any movement.

HOW TO USE CONTROL DIALS

The Solar Motion Light has 3 different control dials which control the light’s duration, sensitivity to light, and sensitivity to motion.

LUX (LIGHT LEVEL)

1. The LUX Adjusting dial (9) tells the sensor the level of darkness that must be reached before the light turns on.
2. If set to the maximum level, the light will go on in daylight.
3. If set to the minimum setting the sensor will only trigger the light to turn on at dusk or when it is dark out. This is the ideal position for general usage.

TIME

1. The TIME Adjusting dial (11) sets the duration of illumination time.
2. The TIME is adjustable from 8 seconds to 2 minutes. Rotating the dial clockwise will increase the illumination time.

SENS (SENSITIVITY

This determines the range of motion detection:

1. Minimum position — Low Range.
2. Mid Position – Normal setting.
3. Maximum position – Maximum range.

LOCATION OF SOLAR LIGHT

For best results, please locate the Solar Panel from your COB Solar Light in a position where it can absorb direct sunlight on the solar panel, and generally tree from cover and shade.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the Solar Motion Light does not Illuminate when movement in front of the sensor is obvious, please observe the following:

• Ensure the solar panel is in a location where it will receive maximum sunlight during daytime hours.

• Ensure the lamp head is away from other light sources. Other light sources at night will prevent the unit from turning on.
• Ensure the switch is set to the “AUTO” or “ON’ position.
