3.1 Initial Charging

Before first use, it is recommended to fully charge the alarm unit. Connect the provided DC charging cable to the charging port on the alarm and to a suitable 5V power adapter (not included). The indicator light will show charging status. Alternatively, place the unit in direct sunlight for several hours to allow the solar panel to charge the internal battery.

3.2 Power On/Off

The alarm can be powered on or off using the remote control. Press the 'OFF' button on the remote to turn the unit off. To activate, select one of the operating modes (A, B, or C) using the remote control.

4. Operating Modes

The Lancoon Solar Motion Sensor Alarm offers three distinct operating modes, selectable via the remote control:

• Mode A: 24-Hour Motion Detection Alarm
  In this mode, the alarm will activate with sound and strobe light whenever motion is detected, regardless of the time of day.
• Mode B: Night Motion Detection Alarm
  This mode activates the alarm with sound and strobe light only when motion is detected during nighttime or in low-light conditions.
• Mode C: Night 5-Minute Timed Sound and Light Cycle
  In this mode, during nighttime, the alarm will emit sound and flash its light in a timed cycle (e.g., every 5 minutes) when motion is detected.
