The transformer is designed for outdoor use and includes various protection features to ensure safe and reliable operation.

2. Інформація про безпеку

• This transformer provides a 12V DC safety voltage, reducing electrical hazards.
• The unit is equipped with overload and short circuit protection. In case of an overload, the circuit breaker will trip.
• Важливо: This transformer is НЕ ДЛЯ ВИКОРИСТАННЯ З ДИММЕРАМИ.
• Mount the transformer at least 1 foot (30cm) above ground level.

3. Налаштування та встановлення

Виконайте такі кроки для правильного встановлення ландшафтного трансформатора:

1. Монтаж: Utilize the built-in hanging hole to mount the transformer securely on an outdoor wall. Ensure it is mounted at least 1 foot (30cm) above ground.
2. Підключення живлення: Plug the 3.3ft power cable into a standard 120V AC outdoor outlet.
3. Підключення освітлювальних приладів: Connect your low voltage landscape lights to the 12V DC output terminals. The transformer features two terminal output ends. Ensure the total wattagпотужність підключених світильників не перевищує 60 Вт.

The circuit breaker provides short circuit protection. If it trips due to an overload, troubleshoot the connected lights, then press the circuit breaker button to reset.

4. Інструкція з експлуатації

The transformer offers multiple operating modes for flexible control of your landscape lighting.

4.1. Photocell Sensor (Dusk to Dawn)

The built-in photocell sensor automatically detects ambient light levels. In appropriate modes, it will turn your landscape lights ON at dusk and OFF at dawn, providing energy efficiency and convenience.

4.3. Функція пам'яті

The transformer includes a memory function. In the event of a power outage, the device will retain the last selected timer mode and resume operation accordingly once power is restored.

4.4. Setting Modes

Press the "MENU" button to cycle through the 5 available operating modes:

• Увімкнення/вимкнення вручну: Allows you to manually turn the lights on or off.
• Автоматичне увімкнення/вимкнення: Lights turn on at dusk and off at dawn automatically via the photocell sensor.
• Photo ON Timer OFF: Lights turn on at dusk and turn off after the set timer duration (2/4/6/8 hours).
• Таймер УВІМК./ВИМК.: Lights turn on and off based on a set schedule (not detailed in provided data, typically implies a specific time setting).
• Тест: Enables verification of the light sensor's functionality.

6. Вирішення проблем

• Світло не вмикається:
  • Check if the transformer is properly plugged into a working outlet.
  • Verify the selected operating mode. Ensure it is not in Manual OFF or a timer mode that has already expired.
  • Inspect the photocell sensor for any obstructions if using dusk-to-dawn modes.
  • Check the circuit breaker. If it has tripped, press it to reset after inspecting for overloads or short circuits in the connected lights.
• Circuit Breaker Trips Repeatedly:
  • Загальна ватtage of connected lights may exceed the transformer's 60W capacity. Reduce the number of lights.
  • There may be a short circuit in the landscape wiring or one of the light fixtures. Inspect all connections and fixtures for damage.
• Таймер працює неправильно:
  • Ensure the correct timer duration (2/4/6/8 hours) is selected in the Photo ON Timer OFF mode.
  • Verify that the memory function is retaining settings after power cycles.
