10 SOLAR-BREEZE NX2
STAND-BY OR SLEEP MODE
This mode occurs when the battery charge has been drawn down
to the Low-Voltage level. This will normally occur in the evening
after the pool has been in shade for some time, however, it could
also occur on a cloudy day when the energy available from
the sun is low. In this mode, the paddlewheels will stop turning,
and the red “STATUS” light will begin to flash – indicating a low
battery.
When solar energy becomes available, the unit will recharge
itself and start operation again on its own, and the red STATUS
light will no longer flash.
HUNT FOR SUN MODE
This intermittent mode occurs when the battery is low (blinking
RED STATUS light) and the sky is illuminated. Typically, this
will happen shortly after sunrise or in the late afternoon after a
cloudy day. The unit will operate two minutes “ON” and eight
minutes “OFF” (intermittently) until it finds a spot in the pool
where there is direct sunlight, where it can stop and charge
its battery in the sun. If the robot is charging in the sun while
operating in Hunt for Sun Mode and drifts into shadow, it will
frequently start up and run in an attempt to find the sun and stop
to charge again. When the battery reaches a sufficient charge
the red “STATUS” light will go out and the unit will begin to
operate in normal mode again. In late afternoon, this mode will
end near sunset, at which time the unit will revert to Sleep Mode;
if the daytime sunshine was not sufficient to charge the battery
above the minimum volt level.
