AIS Monitoring System
Trouble Shooting
Problem Remedy
Lantern will not activate. • Ensure lantern is in darkness.
• Wait at least 60 seconds for the program to initialise in darkness.
• Ensure switch setting is on a valid code (not unused flash code).
• Ensure battery terminals are properly connected.
• Ensure battery voltage is above 12volts.
Timing codes will not change. • Turn rotary switches several times to ensure contacts are clear.
Lantern will not operate for the
entire night.
• Expose lantern to direct sunlight and monitor operation for several days.
Sealite products typically require 1.5 hours of direct sunlight per day to
retain full autonomy. From a discharged state, the lantern may require
several days of operational conditions to ‘cycle’ up to full autonomy.
• Reducing the light output intensity or duty cycle (flash code) will reduce
current draw on the battery.
• Ensure solar module is clean and not covered by shading during the day.
All Sealite boards are fitted with two indicator LED’s. These are positioned near the Flash Code Rotary
Switches. Use the table below to help determine operational status.
