2.7 Mode of Lighting Fixtures
Operation modes of the lighting fixtures are controlled by the infrared ray
controller, including constant light mode, light control mode and standby mode.
When the lighting fixtures leave the factory, the “light control mode”is set.
Meanwhile, the luminous intensity of the lighting fixtures is step 3 under any mode.
1. Constant light mode:
Under the constant light mode, the lighting fixtures constantly and continuously
give out light on day and at night.
Approximate operation time of the lighting fixtures under the constant light
mode is as follows: 64 days for step-1 lighting fixtures, 56 days for step-2 lighting
fixtures, 30 days for step-3 lighting fixtures, 14 days for step-4 lighting fixtures and
4 days for step-5 lighting fixtures (the above-mentioned data are the theoretical
values of the new lighting fixtures, which are fully charged and continuously give
out light).
The constant light mode is only used for the illumination
under some special states.
※The power consumption under this mode is high.
2. Light control mode:
Under the light control mode, when the environmental intensity is lower than
35FC (about 376Lux), the lighting fixture gives out light. When the environmental
intensity is higher than 60FC (645Lux, the lighting fixture goes out. Under the state
of sunny day, the lighting fixture gives out light for about 14h per day and is turned
off for about 10h. Under the normal cases, this mode is suggested for the normal use
of the airport.
Operation time of the lighting fixtures under the light control mode is as
follows: About 75 days for step-1 lighting fixtures, about 64 days for step-2 lighting
fixtures, about 40 days for step-3 lighting fixtures, about 22 days for step-4 lighting
fixtures and about 8 days for step-5 lighting fixtures (the above-mentioned data are
the theoretical values, without charging and the lighting fixture gives out light 14h
per day).
Changing this operation mode without authorization is
prohibited.
※The power consumption under other modes is too high.

3. Standby mode:
The standby mode is often used for the warehouse storage. The long-term
storage time of the lighting fixture is three months without its lamp turned on (the
ambient temperature is lower than 35℃). The lighting fixture is stored in the
warehouse. When it is in the standby mode, the lighting fixture shall be fully charged
once per three months to ensure that the cell is valid.
After long-term storage, the lighting fixtures shall be charged
before use.
※The lighting fixture performance may be poor.
This mode is used for the warehouse storage or
transportation.
※Long-term power loss of the lighting fixtures may impact the
service life of the cell.
4. Precautions:
Because the solar lighting fixture works normally depending on the weather to
some extent, we suggest the user to use the light control mode. The lighting fixture
is turned off on day and turned on at night. Under the state of sunny day, the
accumulator is charged by the solar cell panel to keep its electricity sufficient, so as
to make the lighting fixture work stably and normally for a long time. Under the
state of long-term overcast and rainy weather, without charging through sunlight,
when the internal power is used up, in order to protect the internal accumulator, the
lighting fixture will enter the standby mode. At this moment, the lighting fixture is
remotely controlled with any key of the remote control, which goes out after
flashing for three times. In such case, the lighting fixture shall be charged
immediately or the internal accumulator shall be replaced immediately. For the
charging method, see Section 4.4. For the steps of cell replacement, see Section 4.1.
Along with the increase of service time of the lighting fixtures, the electric
power storage capacity of the internal accumulator is reduced step by step and the
above-mentioned theoretical values of the operation time will be shortened
accordingly. The regular replacement time of the internal accumulator suggested is
less than three years. Such time is different from the guaranteed service life and
expected service life of the cell.
A little of combustible gas may be generated in the lighting fixture. Do not use
the lighting fixture nearby the articles generating heat, open fire or spark.

Method to remotely control the lighting fixture with a remote control:
Hold a remote control with hands to effectively and remotely control the
lighting fixture at any position in the space which is higher than its prism plane and
whose distance is no greater than 2m. The position of about upward 15° included
angle of the prism plane of the lighting fixture is the best remote control point as
shown in Figure above.
Press the button, the lighting fixture will flash once as confirmation of the
instruction after receiving it. When the angle and distance are appropriate (see
Figure below), single remote control may trigger several lighting fixtures and
change the operating mode.
Operating method of the standard remote control is as follows:
After the remote control button is pressured by aiming at the lighting fixture,
the lighting fixture will enter the corresponding mode.
Press the button “ON” on the remote control to start the light control mode 按of
the LED lighting fixture: When the environmental intensity is lower than 35FC
(about 376Lux), the lighting fixture gives out light and when the environmental
intensity is higher than 60FC (about 645Lux), the LED particle goes out.
Press the button “OFF” on the remote control to turn off the LED lighting
fixture, which enters the standby mode.
If this product is not charged continuously through sunlight for a long time, it
will automatically recover to the operation mode or ON/OFF state prior to cell
protection after the cell power is recovered. After the cell is replaced, the lighting
fixture will recover its default factory setup (light control mode, step 3 light).

impact its normal functions.
During installation of the lighting fixtures, consideration shall be given to the
following:
1. The lighting fixture must be installed in a place with sufficient sunlight, free
of any sheltering. It shall be ensured that there is no shield shadow on the surface
facing the light of the battery pack throughout the day. In order to prevent the handle
of the lower and upper front covers of the lighting fixture shading the sunlight, it is
suggested that the handle should face the downsun direction (north) during
installation of the lighting fixture.
2. When it is impossible for no sheltering throughout the day, there shall not
be sheltering during the sunlight period.
The lighting fixture shall not be close to the heat source as
much as possible and ventilation is very important.
※Otherwise it impacts the service life and charging efficiency of
the lighting fixture.
