Please keep in mind outside temperatures when adjusting sensitivity.
PIR (PASSIVE INFRARED SENSOR) NOTE:
A note about this state of the art technology: These PIR sensors detect thermal mass.
Additionally, the internal micro processor embedded in your Smart Light 1000
™
“communicates” with the PIR sensors in code. This code allows your
Smart Light
1000
™
fixture to differentiate between a large thermal mass, and a small one (such as a
cat, rabbit, small dog, etc.). When a small thermal mass is detected, the code tells the light
not to turn on. When a larger mass is detected (i.e. humans, a bear, large dogs, etc.) the
code enables the unit to turn on the light. However, thermal readings are dictated by
outside temperatures. It is more difficult to trigger the fixture when the background
temperature is close to the outside body temperature of the object moving across it,
making it necessary to come closer to the fixture to turn it on. Likewise, if it’s very cold
outside, the cold background makes it much easier to pick up any thermal mass, and thus
the PIR sensors may detect an object further away than normal.
STEP 6: Replace the lens using the FIVE (5) screws removed in STEP (4).
VERY IMPORTANT:
Please ensure that the
CLEAR
O-RING which seals the
electronics compartment is located properly on the back side of the Lens cover where the
oval is. If this small O-RING is missing when the cover is reinstalled, water may intrude
into the electronics compartment and disable the fixture. The O-RING is embedded in the
lens directly over the electronics compartment oval access hole. To ensure proper
placement of the O-Ring, rub your index finger around the outside of the oval portion of
the lens which covers the electronics compartment. If you are unable to locate the O-
RING, please contact us before installing the fixture.
You may now reconnect the Battery.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The Smart Light 1000
™
fixture was designed to operate in two (2) modes:
Mode 1
–
Manual Mode
The Manual mode is triggered when switched “ON” by the
off-on switch located inside
the RV. In the manual mode, the daylight sensor will be inoperable and the Smart Light
1000
™
will work as a standard lighting product with the exception of Star Monitor
™
Starlight's exclusive Star Monitor
™
will monitor the RV’s Battery Voltage Level. When
the voltage drops to 11.5 volts for 45 consecutive seconds, a RED led will blink behind
the lens as a warning of a low battery condition. Star Monitor
™
will not turn the Smart
Light 1000
™
fixture off in this mode, but it will issue a warning. As a side note, several
customers have called over the years claiming the Star Monitor
™
is inaccurate. Our
trouble shooting efforts found that every customer had some sort of electrical
malfunction. The Star Monitor
™
utilizes a digital code and is 99.999% accurate. Thus, if
