Odpravljanje težav
If your landscape lighting system is not functioning as expected, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
| Težava | Možen vzrok | rešitev |
|---|---|---|
| Luči se ne prižgejo | No power to transformer; Loose wiring connections; Overloaded circuit; Faulty lights | Check power outlet and circuit breaker. Ensure all low voltage wires are securely connected. Reduce total wattage of lights if exceeding 150W. Test individual lights. |
| Luči ostanejo prižgane neprekinjeno | Photocell sensor obstructed or dirty; Incorrect operating mode selected | Clean the photocell sensor and ensure no objects are blocking it. Verify the transformer is set to 'Auto' or 'Countdown/Off' mode. |
| Lights turn off too early/late | Photocell sensor sensitivity; Timer setting incorrect | Ensure the photocell sensor is not exposed to artificial light sources at night. Adjust the countdown timer setting as needed. |
| Odklopnik se sproži večkrat | Overload; Short circuit in wiring or lights | Zmanjšajte skupno vattage of connected lights. Inspect all low voltage wiring for damage or shorts. Check individual lights for faults. |
