Sąranka ir diegimas
Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of the PC-1F Photo Cell.
- Pasirinkite vietą: Select a mounting location where the photo cell's sensor will be exposed to natural daylight and not obstructed by eaves, trees, or other structures. Avoid locations where artificial light sources (e.g., streetlights, porch lights) might shine directly onto the sensor, as this can cause erratic operation.
- Atjunkite maitinimą: Turn off the power to the circuit at the main electrical panel before beginning installation.
- Laidų jungtys:
- Prijunkite juoda viela from the photo cell to the incoming 120V AC Line (hot) wire.
- Prijunkite balta viela from the photo cell to the Neutral wire of the power supply and to the Neutral wire of the lighting fixture.
- Prijunkite raudona viela from the photo cell to the Load (hot) wire of the lighting fixture.
Ensure all wire connections are secure and insulated with appropriate wire connectors.
- Montavimas: Securely mount the photo cell using appropriate hardware. Ensure the sensor lens faces the direction of natural light.

Naudojimo instrukcijos
The Orbit PC-1F Photo Cell operates automatically once installed and powered.
- Automatinis veikimas: The photo cell is designed to detect ambient light levels. When natural light diminishes below a certain threshold (e.g., at dusk), the photo cell will automatically activate the connected lighting fixtures.
- Daylight Deactivation: Conversely, when sufficient natural light returns (e.g., at dawn), the photo cell will automatically deactivate the connected lighting fixtures.
- Laiko delsa: The photo cell typically incorporates a short time delay to prevent false triggering from transient light changes (e.g., car headlights, lightning flashes).
Priežiūra
Minimal maintenance is required for the PC-1F Photo Cell to ensure continued reliable operation.
- Jutiklio valymas: Periodically inspect the photo cell's sensor lens for dirt, dust, or debris. Gently clean the lens with a soft, damp Jei reikia, nuvalykite šluoste. Nenaudokite abrazyvinių valiklių.
- Ryšio patikrinimas: Annually, or if issues arise, inspect the wiring connections to ensure they remain secure and free from corrosion. Ensure power is disconnected before performing any inspection.
- Kliūčių patikrinimas: Ensure no new obstructions (e.g., growing foliage, new structures) are blocking natural light from reaching the sensor.
