7. Operating Instructions

The Olafus Smart LED Flood Light offers various modes and customizable settings through the mobile application.

7.1 Motion Sensor Operation

The integrated motion sensor detects movement within its adjustable range and angle, triggering the light to turn on. You can customize its behavior via the app.

  • Detection Angle: Up to 180 degrees.
  • Detection Range: Up to 72 feet.
  • Sensitivity Levels: Adjustable (Low, Middle, High) in the app.
  • Motion Off Delay: Set the duration the light stays on after motion is no longer detected (6 seconds to 60 minutes).

7.2 Lighting Modes

The flood light supports different lighting modes to suit various needs:

  • Motion Sensor Mode: The light automatically turns on to 100% brightness when motion is detected and turns off after the set delay when no motion is present.
  • Dim Light Mode (Weak Light Brightness): The light maintains a low brightness (e.g., 1-30%) when no motion is detected, then switches to 100% brightness upon motion detection. After the motion ceases and the delay expires, it returns to the dim light setting. The duration of the dim light can also be set (e.g., 1 minute to 8 hours).

7.3 Adjustable Color Temperature & Brightness

Customize the light output to your preference:

  • Color Temperature: Steplessly adjust from warm white (2700K) to cool white (6500K) via the app.
  • Brightness: Stepless dimming from 1% to 100%.
  • Memory Function: The light retains your last color temperature and brightness settings when powered off and on.

Examples of warm and cold white light are shown on a house exterior.

7.4 Timer Setting

Schedule your light to turn on or off at specific times or to operate in different modes throughout the day or week.

  • Set specific ON/OFF times (e.g., turn on at 8:00 PM, turn off at 6:00 AM).
  • Configure delayed shutoff (e.g., light turns off after 3 hours of continuous operation).
