The intensity/power settings may be used to reduce the power consumption and intensity of the lantern. Setting the lantern to 25% intensity will reduce the power consumption to 25% of the normal 100% setting and the range by 20% - 40% depending on the maximum intensity.
SL-07 Series 1–4NM+ Marine Lanterns Selecting a Flash Code - Rotary Switches A & B All lanterns have 2 rotary switches marked A and B on the flasher unit. Turning the small arrows to the appropriate number or letter will set the code. The unit may take up to one minute to activate a new flash code. A comprehensive list of available flash codes is listed on in the ‘Flash Codes’ section of this manual. 2.7 BCD F01 Latest products and information available at www.sealite.
