QUICK START
2.1 Mounting the Ltl-SUN Solar Charger
First, slip the solar charger into the holder, linking the lower hook of the holder with the gap at
the bottom of the device.
Connect the swivel mount with the holder using the built-in screw. Then, adjust the angle of
the mount so that the solar panel is directly facing the sun. Generally in the northern hemisphere,
this means the panel is facing south, angled 10 to 20 degree up towards the sky. However, please
note that the ideal orientation depends on the specific situation of the set-up site.
Wrap the strap around the disk of the swivel mount once, and then fasten it to the tree. Or,
simply position the device using any alternate methods that works best for you.
Note: The side that connects with the power cable must face down, so as to prevent water
damage in case of rain.
2.2 Connecting Ltl-SUN with a Ltl Acorn
Plug the power cable (the bigger end) into the socket at the right side of Ltl-SUN, and then
plug the other end into the output power socket of the Ltl Acorn camera. If Ltl-SUN is charged,
the camera will be immediately powered.
Attention:
a. It is strongly recommended that eight batteries be installed inside the Ltl Acorn camera
(even when connected with the solar charger), otherwise, the camera may stop operating due
to power shortage (during intensive use of the camera, the solar charger may not be charged
fast enough, and therefore is not ideal to be used alone without the batteries).
b. Since Ltl-SUN is designed specifically for Ltl Acorn sounting cameras, it may not be
compatible with other electronic devices and may cause them to malfunction.
c. The Ltl-SUN is NEVER to be used in parallel connection with any other power sources,
any damages resulted from this incorrect usage will not be covered by the warranties.
2.3 Pre-Charging the Ltl-SUN Solar Charger
Since the solar charger is only charged to about the half of its capacity when it leaves the
factory, it is recommended that it is fully charged before usage.
Ltl-SUN can be charged using a 5V output power adapter or by connecting to a USB port of
a computer. The socket is the usual mini-USB portal, at the bottom left of the solar charger.
When using the power adapter provided in the original package, the green light will turn off
when the charging process is complete.
Note: Do NOT plug the two ends of a USB cable into the two ports of Ltl-SUN at the same time,
or the device will be broken.
