Operating Instructions
Selecting Work Modes:
Use the remote control to select your desired operating mode:
- Mode A (Cyclic Flash & Alarm): Press the 'A' button. The alarm will cycle through flashing and sounding every 5 minutes at night.
- Mode B (24-Hour Alarm): Press the 'B' button. The alarm will activate with sound and flash whenever motion is detected, day or night.
- Mode C (Night Alarm): Press the 'C' button. The alarm will activate with sound and flash only when motion is detected during nighttime hours.
Recording Custom Sounds:
The alarm allows you to record your own custom sound (up to 20 seconds) to be used as the alarm tone. This is particularly useful for deterring specific animals by recording human voices or predator sounds.
- Ensure the device is powered on.
- Press the microphone/recording button on the remote control or directly on the device. The indicator light will illuminate, and you will hear a "di" sound, indicating it's ready to record.
- Speak clearly or play the desired sound towards the device's microphone.
- Recording takes up to 20 seconds and stops automatically. If your content is over 20 seconds, the new recording will cover the previous content.
- To play the recorded sound, press the play button on the remote control or device.
Adjusting Volume:
Use the '+' and '-' buttons on the remote control to increase or decrease the siren volume. There are three adjustable volume levels.

Maintenance
- Solar Panel Cleaning: Periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris that may hinder charging efficiency.
- Sensor Area: Keep the motion sensor lens clear of obstructions (e.g., leaves, spiderwebs) to ensure accurate detection.
- Battery Life: The integrated Lithium Metal battery is designed for long-term use. If the device's performance significantly degrades, ensure it receives adequate sunlight or charge it via the DC adapter.
- Storage: If storing the device for an extended period, ensure it is fully charged and stored in a cool, dry place.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Device not turning on or holding charge. | Insufficient sunlight; battery depleted; faulty unit. | Ensure solar panel receives 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. Charge via DC adapter. If issues persist, contact customer support. |
| Motion sensor not detecting. | Sensor obstructed; incorrect mode; range too far. | Clear obstructions from sensor lens. Verify correct operating mode (Mode B or C). Ensure target is within 5-8 meter range. |
| Alarm sound is too low or unclear. | Volume setting too low; poor recording quality. | Increase volume using the '+' button on the remote. Re-record custom sound in a quiet environment, speaking clearly and close to the microphone. |
| Alarm triggers too frequently (false alarms). | Branches/foliage moving in wind; small animals. | Relocate the device away from moving foliage. Consider using Mode C (Night Alarm) if false alarms occur during the day due to non-threatening movement. |
