3. What's in the Box

Your Home Zone Security Solar Floodlight package includes:

• Home Zone Security Solar Floodlight Unit(s)
• Instruction Manual

4. Setup and Installation

The Home Zone Security Solar Floodlights are designed for simple, wire-free installation. The entire process primarily involves mounting the unit and its solar panel.

4.1 Mounting Location

Choose a location that receives direct sunlight for the majority of the day to ensure optimal charging of the solar panel. The floodlight itself should be positioned to cover the desired area for motion detection and illumination. The solar panel is connected via a cable, allowing flexibility in mounting the panel separately from the light unit if needed.

4.2 Installation Steps

1. Prepare the Unit: Before mounting, ensure any protective films are removed from the solar panel. If applicable, install the rechargeable batteries into the unit as per the instructions in the included manual.
2. Mount the Light Unit: Secure the floodlight unit to your chosen surface (e.g., brick, wood, concrete) using appropriate screws and anchors. The mounting plate typically requires a power drill for secure attachment.
3. Mount the Solar Panel: Position the solar panel in an area that receives maximum direct sunlight. Secure it using the provided hardware.
4. Connect Solar Panel: Connect the cable from the solar panel to the floodlight unit. Ensure the connection is secure and waterproof.
5. Adjust Light Heads and Sensor: Once mounted, adjust the three pivoting light heads to direct illumination to your desired areas. Adjust the motion sensor's angle to optimize detection coverage.

5. Operating Instructions

Your Home Zone Security Solar Floodlight offers various settings to customize its operation.

Image 5.1: Adjustable Settings Overview

5.1 Mode Selection

The floodlight typically features a switch or dial for selecting operating modes:

• TEST (5s): For initial setup and testing motion detection. The light will turn on for a short period (e.g., 5 seconds) when motion is detected, regardless of ambient light.
• AUTO (Motion Sensing & Dusk to Dawn): The light will only activate when motion is detected and ambient light levels are low (dusk to dawn). This is the primary security mode.
• OFF: The light remains off.
• ON (Continuous On): The light remains continuously on, typically overriding motion detection and dusk-to-dawn sensors. This mode may drain the battery faster.

5.2 Time Setting (Illumination Duration)

Adjust how long the light stays on after motion is detected:

• 30s: Light stays on for 30 seconds.
• 60s (1 Minute): Light stays on for 1 minute.
• 120s (2 Minutes): Light stays on for 2 minutes.

5.3 Sensor Setting (Motion Detection Range)

Adjust the sensitivity and range of the motion sensor:

• Close Range: Detects motion within a shorter distance.
• Medium Range: Standard detection distance.
• Maximum 40ft Range: Detects motion up to 40 feet away.

5.4 Linkable Functionality (Channels)

To link multiple Home Zone Security devices:

1. Each device has a channel switch (CH1, CH2, CH3, CH4).
2. Set all devices you wish to link to the same channel.
3. When motion is detected by any device on that channel, all other devices on the same channel will activate simultaneously.
4. You can create up to 4 separate lighting zones.

6. Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your solar floodlights, regular maintenance is recommended:

• Clean Solar Panel: Periodically wipe the solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris. A clean panel ensures maximum sunlight absorption for efficient charging.
• Inspect Connections: Annually check all connections, especially the cable between the solar panel and the light unit, to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
• Clear Obstructions: Ensure no new obstructions (e.g., growing tree branches, new structures) are blocking direct sunlight to the solar panel or interfering with the motion sensor's field of view.
• Battery Check: While designed for long life, if you notice a significant decrease in performance, the internal rechargeable batteries may need inspection or replacement. Refer to the full product manual for battery access and specifications.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Home Zone Security Solar Floodlights, try the following troubleshooting steps:

• Light Not Turning On at Night:
  • Ensure the solar panel is receiving adequate direct sunlight throughout the day.
  • Verify the light is set to 'AUTO' mode.
  • Check for any obstructions blocking the motion sensor.
  • Allow 1-2 full days of charging in direct sunlight before first use.
• Motion Sensor Not Detecting:
  • Adjust the sensor's angle and sensitivity setting.
  • Ensure there are no objects (e.g., tree branches, bushes) that might be swaying and causing false triggers or blocking detection.
  • Test the unit in 'TEST' mode to confirm basic functionality.
• Linked Units Not Activating:
  • Confirm that all linked units are set to the exact same channel (CH1, CH2, CH3, or CH4).
  • Ensure units are within the specified transmission range (up to 327 feet).
  • Check individual units for proper operation in 'AUTO' mode.
• Light Stays On Continuously or Flashes:
  • Verify the mode setting is not 'ON'.
  • If flashing, the battery may be low or there might be an issue with the solar charging. Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving sunlight.
