Hampton Bay 2-Pack Connected Solar Deck Lights

Installation

Note: The solar light is equipped with a photosensor that turns the unit on at dusk and off at dawn. Ambient light can affect the operation of the photosensor.

IMPORTANT: Prior to use, set the ON/OFF switch located on the back plate of the solar light to the ON position and allow it to charge for a full sunny day.

IMPORTANT: Ensure the mounting location for your solar light allows the solar panel to receive direct sunlight. Do not place the product in shaded areas, as this will reduce charging performance.

1. Wood Post/Fence Mounting

• To mount the solar light to a wood post or fence, use the template (CC) to mark the mounting screw locations. Alternatively, measure and mark the installation locations for the mounting screws 3.86 in. (98 mm) on-center.
• Insert the mounting screws (AA) into the wood post or fence at the marked locations, leaving about 1/4 in. of the screws (AA) sticking out of the wood surface.
• Align and place the two mounting holes on the back plate of the solar light over the mounting screws (AA).

2. Wall Mounting

• To mount the solar light to a concrete or brick wall, use the template (CC) to mark the mounting screw locations. Alternatively, measure and mark the installation locations for the mounting screws 3.86 in. (98 mm) on-center.
• Drill two holes on the wall at the marked locations.
• Insert the plastic anchors (BB) into the holes. Insert the mounting screws (AA) into the anchors (BB), leaving about 1/4 in. of the screws (AA) sticking out of the wall surface.
• Align and place the two mounting holes on the back plate of the solar light over the mounting screws (AA).

Synchronizing, Turning ON, and Testing the Deck Lights

To turn the lights ON, set the Power switches (2) to the ON position.

When turned ON, the lights will begin a 30-60 second TEST mode, where they will light-up for 5 seconds when motion is detected (regardless of time of day). After 30 to 60 seconds, the lights will enter normal operation and only light-up when motion is detected.

In normal operation, when motion is detected, the lights will activate simultaneously, and stay on for 30 seconds.

Device Address Switch

The Device Address switch (1) has 5 switches, which can be adjusted by flipping up or down. The 5 switch combinations have a total of 32 states. Lights can be interconnected when the frequency modulation switches of 2 or more lights are in the same state. When one light detects motion, the rest of the lights will also turn on. When all 5 switches are turned down, the lights will not enter the interconnection state.
