Using the Infrared (IR)
Programmer
All functions of the 800 series lantern are controlled
by the IR programmer.
Important User Notes
The IR programmer uses one
CR2025 battery (shipped with unit).
Remove the battery tab from the
back of the IR programmer on first
use.
Keep a minimum distance of 6” (15
cm) between the IR programmer
and the lantern.
The Lantern must be in “on” mode
to change settings using the IR
programmer. If a Lantern is in “off”
mode, you may review settings
using the
key, but you will not
be able to scroll through detailed
information or program the lantern.
The IR programmer includes the following keys:
The
power
key awakens the infrared
sensor inside the lantern and allows
the unit to accept programming
commands.
To conserve power, the 800 series
lantern searches for an Infrared
signal on a 0.5 second cycle. You
may need to press the power key
multiple times to establish a
connection. Typically, three steady
button presses will be sufficient;
however, you may need to make
more or fewer connection attempts
to coincide with the lantern signal.
The lantern LEDs will flash to
confirm that a connection has been
made. Once a connection has been
made, all IR commands will be
received and confirmed with a flash.
If no IR signals are received within
60 seconds, the IR receiver will
switch back to power saving mode.
The
information
key provides quick
access to Lantern Status, Battery
State of Charge & Battery Voltage,
Lantern Flash Character, Lantern
Effective Intensity, Automatic Light
Control (ALC) setting, and Calendar
On/Off.
Use the
up/down arrow
keys to
scroll easily through the LED Display
values.
The left/right arrow keys are used to
navigate away from a selected menu
item, or to move between digits
when programming a setting.
Use the
number
keys to directly
enter numeric values.
The
(A)
key allows jumps directly to
the Flash Character menu to view or
edit Flash Character settings.
The
(B)
key jumps directly to the
Lantern Effective Intensity menu to
view or edit Effective Intensity.
