In t al z ng the System
1. Connect the red wire from the light to 12V DC power (+) and the black wire to
ground (-). (Connections-minimum 14 gauge wire). The power must be fused for
10 Amps.

Operat on
You are now ready to operate the light. For directional control, the wireless transmitter
works as shown below:
On the wireless transmitter the light is turned on and off by using the green On/Off
button. The light can be turned on with the main wireless transmitter or any secondary
wireless transmitters.
The spotlight rotates 355 degrees. It has a built in stop to prevent more than 355-
degree rotation.
The spotlight vertical adjustment is approximately 80 degrees. uilt in stops prevent
over travel.
The range of operation of the radio-controlled system is approximately 100 feet (30.5M)
under normal conditions. A weak battery or obstacles will reduce this range.

Mount ng the W reless Transm tter for console control operat on
1. Remove the wireless transmitter from the plastic console-mounting bracket by
slightly bending the tab back to release the wireless transmitter from bracket.
2. Place the wireless transmitter in the desired location and orientation. Test
systems by operating the spotlight in all directions to verify you do not have
interference between the locations.
3. The location for mounting the bracket should be a smooth, flat surface. e sure
you will have access to the underside of the chosen location, and that you will be
able to drill holes there without damaging existing wiring or structures.
4. Use the bracket as a template to mark mounting holes on a flat surface that is
convenient for operation of the light.
5. It is recommended to use marine grade plywood as a back plate to strengthen the
installation.
6. Drill the two 3/16 (4.5 mm) holes through the mounting surface at the marked
points.
7. Apply a small amount of non-silicone sealant (such as Star rite oat Caulk
#83801) where the screws penetrate the mounting surface.
8. Fasten the bracket securely to the mounting surface using the two 6-32 x2”
(3.5mm x 50mm) flat head stainless steel screws, flat washers, and locknuts
provided with the light. Do not over tighten.
Battery Replacement
Only the wireless transmitter requires a battery. Replace only with a 12 Volt Alkaline
A23 battery. See section on page 3 titled Install ng Transm tter Battery.

Troubleshoot ng
Under normal use, your Guest Model 501 eamer Remote Controlled Spotlight will
provide you with many years of reliable service. If your unit should become damaged
by a severe impact, we recommend that you contact the Guest Company Service
Department. See page 12 for contact information.
If an operational problem occurs:
1. Conf rm that all fuses are ntact. If a fuse has blown, do not replace the fuse
until the cause of the problem has been located and corrected. NEVER replace a
blown fuse with a higher value fuse.
2. Most problems are caused by poor w r ng connect ons. Confirm that all wiring
connections are accurate and well made. The connections of the wires are
important and should be soldered and then taped, or connected using
weatherproof phone splices. e sure that the spotlight is connected to a DC power
source capable of supplying at least 12 volts at 10 amps even while other
equipment is operating.
3. If the spotl ght does not move or l ght:
a. Observe the wireless transmitter. The Red light on the transmitter should turn
on whenever a button is pressed. If it does not, first check the internal battery
polarity, if correct then replace the transmitter.
b. Disconnect the 12 Volt DC power from the spotlight. Reconnect the 12 Volt DC
power to the spotlight. Press the green On/Off button 2-3 times within 5
seconds of applying power to the light.
c. Remove the 4 bolts that fasten the spotlight onto the mounting surface and
gently lift the unit until you can see inside its base. Avoid cutting any wires.
Gently inspect the wiring inside the base for broken connections. Examine the
circuit board for loosened plug connectors, blackened components or
corrosion. Replace the circuit board if it appears damaged. If there are no
loose wires or signs of water penetration, re-install the spotlight and then
replace the wireless transmitter. If there are signs of damage,
contact The Guest Company Service Department for advice.
See page 12 for contact information.
Have available information on how and where the spotlight was installed.

4. If the spotl ght moves properly but does not l ght, examine the halogen bulb.
Replace it if it appears discolored or broken. If the bulb appears to be normal,
test for a faulty relay by listening at the base of the light while someone else
activates the bulb using the control. If no "click" is audible, or if a "chattering"
sound is heard, replace the relay. Note: Low voltage or a faulty circuit board
may cause similar symptoms.
5. If the spotl ght w ll not move left or r ght but operates normally otherwise,
listen at the base of the light while someone else presses the left/right directional
buttons. If the lower motor makes no sound when it is activated, replace the
lower motor.
If your l ght has a problem that s not descr bed above, contact the Guest
Service Department for advice (see page 12 for contact information). e sure to
have available a detailed description of the problem, proof of purchase (if requesting
warranty service), and your daytime telephone, fax number, or e-mail address .
