Hierarchy of Photocell Vs Telemetry
If the telemetry function is enabled, then the photocell must detect that is it dark for the
telemetry function to operate. The photocell overrides the telemetry function during the day.
If the external input/telemetry function needs to be operated 24/7, then the photocell function
should be disabled from the settings/groups page.
The system requires 15 seconds of light to deactivate the photocell and turn the lamps off to
avoid accidental turn off of the lamps via car headlights or torches.
Quick Troubleshoot
Ensure correct lens angle selected for required distance – check stated performance.
Ensure lamp in correct orientation.
Ensure camera fully operational and lens fully open at night.
Check POE equipment is correctly rated for the Vario IP POE unit. On VAR-IPPOE-w8-1,
i8-1 and i8-1-c units check the detection resistance switch is in the correct position for your
PSE.
If using Auxiliary power, check voltage applied to VARIO IP PoE: - 24V DC (50W required
for VAR-IPPOE-w8-1, i8-1 and i8-1-c, 25.5W required for VAR-IPPOE-w4-1, i4-1 and
i4-1-c).
Check connection and wiring of Cat 5/6 cable to VARIO IP. Verify link has been established
with the router/switch to which the lamp is connected.
If a physical connection is present run the Discovery Application and try to discover the lamp
on the network.
If the lamp is discovered and the “State” indicator is grey, this indicates that there is no
communications with the lamp – check IP Address and Subnet Mask are set within the
correct range.
