1. LED Status Indicators, Using the Remote and
Operating Modes
There are three, coloured LEDs visible on the base of the VARIO illuminator. The
three LEDs provide important operating and status information. The infra-red
receiver for the Remote Control commands is also on the base of the unit – and
the Remote Control should be pointed in this direction during programming.
Most functions respond immediately to pressing the required button – however
two functions require the button to be held for 4 seconds continuously to avoid
accidental programming:1.Restore Factory Default and 2.Disable Remote
Control Set-up. The Remote Control is designed to operate at distances upto
8 metres.
The status information provided by each of these LEDs differs depending on
which of the two operating modes the VARIO illuminator is in: (A) Programming
OR (B) Normal Operating
1A. Programming Mode
On powering up the illuminator, it automatically enters programming mode to allow
the user to adjust set-up and operation. The programming mode automatically
times out after 4 weeks or until the user actively disables the programming mode
- see ‘Disable Remote Control Set-up’ (section 7).
During Programming mode, the LEDs indicate the following status:
• SOLID GREEN: Power Applied
• FLASHING GREEN: Remote control IR receiver problem
• FLASHING AMBER: Indicates unit is in programming
mode
• SOLID AMBER: Indicates that a valid command
is being received
• SOLID RED: Internal LED Fault Detected
• FLASHING RED: Voltage supply problem detected
*(Please note – once the voltage problem has been corrected, the user must disable
remote control set-up or power the unit on and off to stop the red status LED flashing)
All functions of the Remote Control are available in Programming Mode.

1B. Normal Operating Mode
During Normal Operating Mode (ie not in Programming Mode), the LEDs
indicate the following status:
• SOLID GREEN: Power Applied
• FLASHING GREEN: Remote control IR receiver problem
• SOLID AMBER: Voltage supply problem detected
**(Please note – once the voltage problem has been corrected, the user must disable
remote control set-up or power the unit on and off to extinguish the amber status LED)
• SOLID RED: Internal LED Fault Detected
The only function of the Remote Control available during Normal Operating
Mode is LED Status Indicators Enable/Disable (see section 5)
Factory Default: On initial power-up, illuminator automatically defaults into
programming mode. Programming mode automatically disabled after 4
weeks.
2. Power Adjust
The power output of the VARIO illuminator can be adjusted between 5 preset levels. To select the required light intensity use the buttons shown.
Factory default = 100% power.
100% of maximum
80% of maximum
60% of maximum
40% of maximum
20% of maximum

3. Photocell Sensitivity
There are three pre-defined levels to set the lux level threshold
at which the photocell turns the VARIO illuminator on/off.
To select the required sensitivity level use the buttons below.
Factory default = Medium Sensitivty:
10 Lux On, 30 Lux Off
25 Lux On, 50 Lux Off
10 Lux On, 30 Lux Off
5 Lux On, 15 Lux Off
Photocell disabled
IMPORTANT NOTE:
When the photocell disable button is selected this means that the
illuminator will turn on/off from a telemetry input, regardless of ambient
lighting conditions.
