Introduction
The purpose of this Quick Start Guide is to present a brief summary of the steps involved in deploying your Avlite provided floodlight. Your product will
consist of a prewired and preassembled AV-HL-FL light fixture (and solar assembly for solar variants) on a frangible mount assembly.

Quick Start Guide
AV-HL-FL
»Theory Of Operations
AV-HL-FL-PV model: The solar module of the light converts sunlight to an electrical current that is used to charge the battery during daylight
hours. The battery provides power to operate the light at night. For optimum solar charge performance, it is recommended that the unit is
orientated with the solar panels facing East-West.
AV-HL-FL-DC and UM models: The wired fixtures are connected to one another as part of a daisy chain configuration where power, control and
monitoring points are wired in parallel utilizing a single cable route per lighting circuit and junction boxes per fixture. The HLS is controlled from
a primary Helipad Controller which provides power and state transitions to each connected lighting circuit.
»AV-HL-FL
Avlite’s floodlight has been specifically designed for helipads to provide uniform surface lighting where the TLOF and FATO lights need to be
supplemented with floodlighting. The fixture is available in solar (PV) and wired versions (DC and Universal Mains UM).
Install the LED Floodlight Units and solar
assembly (if required)
Set up a number of concrete pads at equidistant points
around the TLOF at ground level. The concrete pads
should have a dimension of approximately 400mm
x 400mm with sufficient depth depending on soil
conditions. Embed 4 bolts, using the Mount Base as a
placing template, fitting level when dry. As an alternative,
it is possible to use rubber tiles instead of concrete pads.
Repeat for installing solar assembly, which requires two
concrete pads with 400 mm between the mounting
centrepoints.
AV-HL-FL-PV model only: Connect the LED Floodlight Unit
to the Solar Assembly using the Avlite supplied 2m long
cable.
Adjustment of LED Floodlight Unit
Point the LED Floodlight Unit into the desired direction,
ensuring that the floodlight unit is level and the height is
below 250mm.
Loosen the two nut screws at the back of the LED
Floodlight Unit.
Adjust the Light Head as required by turning the Tilt
Screw Nut. A spring between the LED Floodlight Unit
and the Light Head will provide the required tension.
After the adjustment secure the tilt/position of the Light
Head by tightening the Locking Screw Nut.
If required, tighten the hex sockets at the Frangible
Sleeve
