it may be necessary to use a suitable sealant such as silicone, to ensure a weatherproofed

joint.

5 - Electrical Installation

Note: ~

When the main power is first applied to the searchlight, the searchlight will carry out a

self-test, it will Pan to the left limit and Tilt down to the limit, once this is complete, the

searchlight will then move to the centre and horizontal, during this please do not try and

operate the searchlight while this test is being carried out. Once the searchlight is back

at centre the searchlight can then be operated normally, by pressing the Panel button on

the control panel.

For safety purposes, only competent personnel should perform the electrical installation. All

equipment should be installed to current Electrical Regulations and Standards.

In order to obtain the maximum light output from the searchlight, it is essential that the full

operating voltage of the LED fitted be applied to the LED contacts.

Method of Electrical Connection

1) Disconnect the supply before working on the electrical system.

2) The searchlight must be connected to a fused electrical supply, using suitably sized cable.

3) If the searchlight is located a considerable distance from the supply, provision must be

made in the cable size in order to overcome the voltage drop.

4) Whenever possible cable terminations should be made below deck and with approved

terminal devices.

5) If a spare auxiliary fuse or circuit breaker is not available, one of the correct type/rating

should be fitted and connected to a positive supply. It is advisable to locate a bus bar or

main connection and avoid any direct connection to the supply.

6) For 110/220v AC products, the following colour coding system should be used for the

customer supply cable.

Brown - Live

Blue - Negative

Green/Yellow - Earth

Note: This equipment must be earthed.

keeping the PANEL button pressed for 10 seconds. Fault codes are indicated by the PANEL

button flashing a number of times related to the fault. Fault codes are detailed below. If more

than one fault is present the PANEL button will indicate them in sequence.

1. Pan Limit. –Either of the pan limit switches operated. Note that this

may not actually be a fault. The LED will flash when a limit switch is

operated under normal circumstances i.e. the lamp is at the limit of

travel. This will also indicate when a variable limit is reached.

2. Tilt Limit. –Either of the tilt limit switches operated. Note that this may

not actually be a fault. The LED will flash when a limit switch is

operated under normal circumstances i.e. the lamp is at the limit of

travel. This will also indicate when a variable limit is reached.

3. Pan motor over current. –The pan motor is taking excessive current.

The motor will be disabled for a period when this occurs. Fault

indication will remain until power is removed or the fault is corrected.

4. Tilt motor over current. –The tilt motor is taking excessive current. The

motor will be disabled for a period when this occurs. Fault indication will

remain until power is removed or the fault is corrected.
