Frequently Asked Questions - ACSOL2B Lorex

How to install the ACSOL2B solar panel?

Two options are available: Option A (recommended): install the camera and panel separately. Option B: install the camera directly on the panel. Follow the steps in the included quick start guide.

How to clean the solar panel?

Regularly clean the panel surface with a soft cloth and warm water to ensure optimal performance.

What does the red LED on the back indicate?

The red LED lights up when the panel receives enough sunlight to maintain the camera battery charge.

What is the power of the ACSOL2B solar panel?

The rated power is 1 Watt, designed to maintain the camera battery charge.

How to orient the panel for optimal charging?

Orient the panel towards the sun, ideally towards the equator (south in the northern hemisphere, north in the southern hemisphere). Adjust the angle via the adjustment ring.

Can the camera be installed directly on the solar panel?

Yes, it's Option B. Note: the camera must face the residence to prevent the mount from blocking the wireless signal.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will need a drill and a Phillips screwdriver. A 6 mm drill bit is included.

What to do if the red LED does not turn on?

Ensure the panel is well exposed to direct sunlight. Clean the surface and check connections. If the problem persists, contact Lorex support.

How to manage cables during installation?

Use the included cable guides to secure the cable to the wall, and the Velcro strap to tidy up the cords.

Position the solar panel

• The solar panel produces power only when exposed to sunlight. You will need to choose a location with plenty of direct sunlight.
• To achieve the best charging performance, angle the solar panel towards the sun. The optimal angle varies throughout the year, depending on the seasons and your location. As a general guideline, the solar panel should be facing the equator; in the northern hemisphere, the solar panel faces south and in the southern hemisphere, the solar panel faces north.
• Make sure the red LED indicator on the back of the solar panel turns on (see Figure 1). If the LED turns on, the solar panel is receiving enough light to maintain the camera battery pack's charge.

Tip: Periodically clean the solar panel with a soft cloth and warm water to keep the surface clear.

Select your installation method

Option A (recommended): Installing the solar panel separately

Install your wire-free camera and solar panel separate from each other, see pages 5-7.

Option B: Installing the solar panel and camera together

Install your wire-free camera directly onto the solar panel, see pages 8-11.

ATTENTION: For option B, the camera and solar panel should be installed facing the residence. If the camera is installed backing onto the residence, the wall mount may block the wireless signal.

Option A - Installing the solar panel separately

1. The solar panel is designed to maintain the camera battery pack's charge. Make sure to first charge the battery pack using the micro USB cable.

2. Stick the wall mount template in the desired mounting position.

3. Drill into the wall mount template's marked holes using the 1/4" (6mm) drill bit. If attaching to masonry, gently tap four anchors into the holes.

4. Secure the wall mount using four screws (see Figure 1).

Option A - Installing the solar panel separately

1. Loosen the wall mount's adjustment ring by turning it counterclockwise (see Figure 2).
2. Angle the rotating adjustment screw 45^ away from the mounting surface (see Figure 2).
3. Twist the solar panel onto the wall mount. Be careful not to hit the mounting surface.
4. Adjust the angle of the solar panel to receive direct sunlight, then tighten the adjustment ring.
5. Use a Phillips screwdriver and the adjustment ring screw to secure the adjustment ring from underneath the wall mount (see Figure 2).

Figure 2

1. Run the solar panel's power cable along the cable guide on the wall mount arm (see Figure 3).
2. Pull up the power port cover on the back of your camera.
3. Use the solar panel's power cable to connect to the power port (see Figure 3).

Optional cable management:

• Use the adjustable Velcro cable tie to secure cords and organize any clutter.
• Secure the solar panel's 10ft (3m) power cable to the wall using the cable guides, screws, and anchors as needed (see Figure 4).
