4 TEST YOUR DEVICE BEFORE INSTALLATION
We strongly recommend that you conduct an initial start-up & manipulation of your Evolis
device BEFORE installing it at the final desired location. In the unlikely event of a malfunction,
a telephone diagnosis (and also, in the worst case scenario, a factory return) is far simpler if
the unit is not already installed onto its post ‘in-situ’.
The very first step is to connect the battery.
4.1 AUTO-TEST
Once you have connected the battery, turn and set the dial switch to
any position OTHER than ‘off’ (standby).
The Evolis will run a quick auto-test (this is perfectly normal and there
is no need to intervene but it IS advisable to observe the display):
1 Speed display
‘
188
’
should be displayed in green and is
quite simply the device testing all the LEDs
in the display.
2 Speed display Then,
Three further numbers
will then be
displayed. These equate to the battery
voltage. (e.g. : ‘147’ = 14.7 Volts). A
normal reading will be situated between 11
and 13
Text display
‘
Init…
’
will then be displayed in the lower
part of the device
3 Speed display
‘
8
’
in red : signifies Bluetooth
‘1’ in green : signifies a GPRS connection

4.3 TEST YOUR SETTINGS
At this point (again, before the eventual installation ‘in-situ’) it is highly recommended to
perform a quick test run of your preferred settings.
For quick start-up, the radar’s parameters are pre-set with standard speed thresholds (based
on commonly used speed limits) and 3 pre-programmed messages (“THANK YOU”, “SLOW
DOWN” and “TOO FAST”).
These thresholds and messages can be re-programmed if desired.
The following thresholds/settings are pre-programmed but can be re-configured if desired:
 Minimum speed display : to conserve power, the vehicle’s speed is only displayed if
it exceeds a certain threshold. This threshold is set at 9mph for all speed limit settings
 Colour change threshold : the speed at which the Evolis display switches from
GREEN to RED)
 Amber activation: The factory setting uses two colours for the speed display: green
and red. You can also add AMBER as an ‘intermediate’ colour if desired.
 Maximum speed display : to eliminate any potential ‘race effect’, the speed display
will disappear if the recorded speed exceeds the limit by 12mph or more.
 Message programming : You can program your own messages as well as the speed
thresholds at which they are activated. See the table below for the factory setting
messages as well as their activation thresholds.
 Flash Threshold : The speed display is programmed to flash if the recorded speed
exceeds the limit by more than 5mph (factory setting ; can be modified)
The dial switch, in the battery compartment, allows you to easily select the speed according
to the local speed limit. This will automatically activate the pre-programmed thresholds
(Factory Settings). Please see the chart below for an outline view of the factory settings.

Before looking at how to re-program your device (change the text messages, modify speed
thresholds etc…) later on in this manual, try this fairly simple manipulation that will allow
you to see how the Evolis works under the factory settings.
Set the dial to the desired speed limit setting (20, 30, 50, 60, or 70).
Then on the Evocom software, select the green tick symbol to launch a display that will
allow you to see your selected settings on the radar screen.

5 INSTALLATION
5.1 HOW BEST TO LOCATE YOUR RADAR SPEED SIGN
For optimal performance, select the radar's location according to the following criteria:
 Choose a straight section road with at least 400ft of unobstructed vision.
This area and the radar beam should be free of any objects (trees, poles, parked
vehicles, other road signs…) as they may disturb the radar's beam.
 Do not install radars at cross-roads, round-abouts or on bridges : vehicles arriving from
a sideways direction can have a confusing influence upon the radar sign's display and
the traffic data it captures.
 Verify that the radar sign does not block the visibility of existing road signs.
 Ensure that the bottom edge of the radar sign is no lower than 8ft and no higher than
16ft from ground level. (too low and there is a risk of collision with pedestrians)
 To avoid accidental collision, ensure that you leave a gap of at least 3ft between the
radar screen and the road. We recommend a gap of between 3ft and 9ft.
 The display screen should be positioned so that it points in a direction that is parallel
to the direction of the road. For example, if the screen is at the maximum distance of
9ft from the road, it should be positioned so as to point at an imaginary line that runs
parallel to the road at a distance of 9ft.
 The sign must be installed straight (at 90°), unless there is a steep gradient (+/- 5°). In
this case, the sign should as far as is possible, be angled so that is matches the
gradient (using a wedge).
 If you wish to install your Evolis on a gradient that exceeds 5%, please contact us.

5.2 FIX YOUR DEVICE SECURELY
Note: When moving, installing or de-installing the sign, always remove the batteries first.
This significantly reduces the weight of the device as well as the risk of stress related cracking.
.
For safety reasons, it is highly recommended to install the radar sign using a scissor lift or
small scaffolding.
1. Attach the (furnished) mounting-bar to the designated post/pole with the aid of fixing
collars/jubilee clips without overtightening them at this stage. Make sure the end that
is stamped ‘TOP’ does indeed get attached at the top.
1) Attach the main body of the radar sign (with batteries removed) by sliding the hooks of
the sign onto the mounting-bar.
2) Adjust the radar sign's position/height and then fully tighten the fixing collars.
3) The radar sign can be further secured to the mounting bar with the aid of a padlock
(padlock is not furnished but there is an ‘eye-hole’ built into the structure for this
purpose)
4) Install the batteries, and / or connect the sign with mains electricity or street lights.
For solar-powered radar signs, the first step is to install the solar panel to the
pole/lamp-post. (using the furnished solar mounting kit). Then procede to the
installation of the radar sign. (See the Solar-power user guide)
5.3 ALWAYS MAKE SAFETY A PRIORITY
- CHECK and COMPLY with current regulations concerning working at a height.
- CHECK and COMPLY with local regulations regarding traffic and road sign installation
- VERIFY that the designated pole is stable and has a sufficient diameter.
(Min. 3inch diameter for AC models, and min. 5inch diameter for Solar models).
If in doubt, consult our sales or customer service representatives.
- If your installation involves connections to mains electricity either directly or through
street lighting, ensure you CHECK and COMPLY with local regulations.

5.4 POWER SUPPLY
Power source:
The Evolis is 12V powered and designed to operate with either:
- Mains: A connection to a permanent mains network. OR to street lighting network in
combination with a battery (12V/22Ah).
- Solar: A solar panel and 2 batteries (12V22Ah).
- Mains Mobile: Battery operated (12V22Ah). Pack includes 4 batteries in total and an
external 12V/4A charger. NOTE: the casing can hold two batteries at one time.
Power consumption:
Thanks to its low power consumption, the battery charging cycle guarantees an extended
duration of operation. Average consumption and wattage as follows:
- Speed: 0.3 A (3.6 Watts at 12V).
- Speed + Message: 0.8 A (9.6 Watts at 12V).
- Standby: 0.1 A (1.2 Watts at 12V).
Power safety / security:
If and when the Evolis radar runs out of power, it has a built-in safeguard that is based on
various thresholds of the battery voltage.
- At 11.5V: The message display wil be de-activated
- At 11.3V: The speed display will be deactivated. The radar will display a small square
to indicate that the speed display is off. NOTE: the radar will still continue to collect
traffic data.
- At 11.1V: The radar will shut down in order to avoid damaging to the battery
Electrical fuse:
To protect the device in case of reversed polarity, a 6.3A fuse is located within the casing.

5.4.1 The Mains or Street Lighting Model:
For power through the permanent mains network or the street lighting system, the Evolis is
supplied with:
- A 4Ah transformer
- A 12V / 22Ah battery
- IP66 male plug pre-cabled into the Evolis
- IP66 female plug for connection to the mains electricity supply
Connect the FEMALE plug to the mains electricity supply:
- Wire the neutral wire (commonly blue colour) cable on the "N"
- Wire the live wire (commonly brown colour) on the "1"
- Wire the earth wire (commonly green/yellow) on the CENTRE connection
- The other two prongs in the plugs are not used
- Then, simply plug the Evolis into the mains by plugging the male plug into the female.
The plugs are equipped with a twist mechanism that not only renders them waterproof but
also prevents them from being pulled apart. Don’t forget to activate this final twist before use.
The only difference between the permanent mains and the mains street lighting schema is that
the street light system requires the addition of a battery whereas the permanent mains system
does not (apart from instances where there is a localised power cut) .
Under the street lighting system,the Evolis will still function without a battery but ONLY during
the hours that the street lighting is functioning. With a battery added, it will charge during street
lighting hours and then take over as a power source from the street lighting as soon as daylight
hours dictate that they are switched off.
We strongly recommend adding a 30mA calibre 16A type AC circuit breaker
between the mains current & the radar speed sign. ELANCITY cannot be held
responsible for damages caused by a poor quality installation. In the absence of
a circuit breaker and the subsequent failure of the internal electrical charger, the
warranty will be invalidated.

5.4.2 The Solar power Model:
Ideally, the solar panel should be positioned in a south facing direction and then
secured with a padlock attached through the ‘eyehole’ at the bottom (padlock not
included). The solar panel’s mounting bracket can be adjusted to the desired vertical
angle.
Make sure you have fitted and connected the batteries inside the Evolis BEFORE
making the connection between the solar panel and the radar sign.
To connect the Radar Sign to the Solar Panel you simply plug the 2 cables from the radar into
the panel.
Mounting: please refer to the solar-panel user guide.
The solar panel’s location must have, as far as possible, an unobstructed view of the sky to
benefit from maximum charging capacity. Trees and buildings can cast shadows on to the
solar panel which can considerably reduce the performance of the solar cells.
5.4.3 The Battery operated - Mains Mobile Model:
Battery operated using two batteries:
In the case of mobile use (i.e. where the device is intended to be moved from place to place),
the Evolis is designed to function using either one or two sealed, 12V / 22Ah batteries. After
opening the back door of the unit, install the charged batteries into the slot between the two
retaining hooks.
 Check the polarity orientation and connect to the terminals.
 Turn the dial switch to select your speed.
 Check the auto startup display on the Evolis (auto-test: ‘188’ / battery voltage / ‘8’ in
red for Bluetooth version).

Power autonomy – One sole battery will generally provide sufficient power for 3 to 8 days
dependent on traffic flow. The radar will indicate low-battery by showing a tri-colored square
on the bottom right corner of the speed display. When you see this display (or before), the
batteries should be replaced with the two charged batteries.
Elan City batteries discharged to 11.1V require approximately 5 hours to charge. The charging
time may vary depending on the remaining battery charge and the conditions under which the
charge is made. The batteries can be charged at any time (i.e. there is no requirement to wait
until it is ‘flat’.
Battery charger light RED Signifies the start of the charge
Battery charger light ORANGE Signifies that charging is underway
Battery charger light GREEN Signifies that the battery is fully charged
A charged battery will gradually discharge even when not in use. Remember to
charge the battery before use using the provided battery charger.
Remember to remove the batteries before moving, installing or de-installing the radar
sign. Removing the batteries significantly reduces the weight of the device as well as
the risk of stress related cracking.
Use of batteries, chargers or other accessories not provided by Elan City will
invalidate the Warranty.
