4. Place all the lights physically close together – preferably in a dark place that is dark enough to
observe the LED operation and so that the light thinks that it is night.
5. The lights will all be in Ship Mode. To get the lights out of Ship Mode, quickly press the small black
push button switch on the top of the light (to the left of the handle) twice. Quick presses are required –
do not hold the button down for more than half a second. (If the lights are in a dark location, they will
turn on in the Autonomous Low setting shortly after the button presses.)
The lights are now ready to accept further programming commands using either the push button, or the
wireless controller (for lights with the wireless control system). The lights can now be deployed, and will
operate in the equipped mode (Autonomous Low) from dusk until dawn.
For further information on programming and advanced operation see section
4.3 Programming Options

4.3 Programming
Options
There are two options for programming the Model A704-5 light:
Push Button:
The black push button on the top of the Model A704-5 allows manual programming of the
Model A704-5 features and operation.
Wireless Controller:
The wireless controller is capable of performing all push button operations as well
as several advanced operations. See section
5.0 Wireless Controller Operation
.
4.3.1 Indicator
LEDs
Located near the push button inside the lens are three small indicator LEDs that light up as either green,
amber or red. (See section
3.0: Component Identification
).
Indicator LEDs are used to:
Guide push button operation (for more detail, see section 4.3.2 Push Button Operation)
Indicate diagnostic information such as battery state of charge
Indicate operating state after the button has not been used for 10 seconds:
The green indicator LED flashes once every 2 seconds when the light is not in Ship Mode or
optional Infrared Mode.
The amber indicator LED flashes once every 2 seconds when the light is charging, using its solar
panels, or once every second when charging via the external power connector.
When the light is in Ship Mode, no indicator LEDs will light unless the light is charging.
When the light is in Infrared Mode (optional), no indicator LEDs will light or flash.
