Functions

With this TV simulator you can simulate the ﬂicker patterns

of a switched-on television and so feign your presence to

potential burglars.

For this purpose 5 diﬀerent settings are available:

OFF 0: the appliance is switched oﬀ.

STS 12 B2 GB│IE│NI │ 9 ■

+2H: the LEDs switch on automatically at dusk and

then light up for 2 hours.

+4H: the LEDs switch on automatically at dusk and

then light up for 4 hours.

+6H: the LEDs switch on automatically at dusk and

then light up for 6 hours.

ON I: the LEDs light up in diﬀerent colours and combinations.

Setup

Select a suitable location for setting up the appliance. This

location must fulﬁl the following criteria:

― The TV Simulator may not be directly visible from

outdoors.

― The ﬂickering generated by the TV simulator must be

visible on the walls and/or ceiling from outdoors.

― A power socket must be easily accessible.

― The TV Simulator must be installed such that it can be

inﬂuenced by the twilight. This means that it must be

able to detect light from outside!

― The TV Simulator may not be located near a window

which could be well lit from outdoors, such as on a

busy street or next to street lights.

― There should be no additional time-controlled light

source in the room, e.g. a night light.

♦ Place the appliance on a ﬁrm and ﬂat surface so that it

is stable and secure. To help prevent it from tipping over,

you can secure the stand with the adhesive strips.

CAUTION - PROPERTY DAMAGE

► Do not use the adhesive strips to hang the appliance on

a wall! The appliance may fall down and be irreparably

damaged!

STS 12 B2

■ 10 │ GB│IE│NI

♦ Align the light surface  so that the ﬂicker is visible on

the walls and/or ceiling.

♦ Connect the power adapter  with the appliance by

inserting the barrel connector  into the plug socket  at

the rear side of the appliance. If required, route the power

cable through the cable conduit  on the appliance.

♦ Connect the power adapter  into a power socket.

NOTE

► It is best to check the location and alignment of the

appliance in the dark from outdoors and through the

window. Only in this way can you assess whether the

appliance is aligned so that it appears as if someone

is watching television inside.

If necessary, realign the appliance.

Wall mounting

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!

Ensure that there are no power cables or other conduits

or pipes in the wall at the location where you intend

to bore the holes for the wall holder. It would be a

potentially fatal risk to bore into a current carrying

electric cable!

Select a suitable mounting location for the appliance:

― The TV Simulator may not be directly visible from outdoors.

― The ﬂickering generated by the TV simulator must be

visible on the walls and/or ceiling from outdoors.

― A power socket must be easily accessible.

― The TV Simulator must be installed such that it can be

inﬂuenced by the twilight. This means that it must be able

to detect light from outside!

― The TV Simulator may not be located near a window

which could be well lit from outdoors, such as on a

busy street or next to street lights.

STS 12 B2 GB│IE│NI │ 11 ■

― There should be no additional time-controlled light

source in the room, e.g. a night light.

♦ Remove the stand by bending it slightly apart and then

pull the restraints out of the mountings.

♦ Drill two holes with a spacing of about 52 mm. Use

the stand to mark the holes: the spacing will thus be

measured correctly. The boreholes must be suitable for

8 mm wall plugs.

♦ Insert the supplied plugs into the holes and screw the

stand ﬁrmly down through the holes for wall mounting 

using the supplied screws.

♦ Push the TV Simulator back onto the stand. Ensure that

the two cross-shaped restraints engage correctly with the

mountings.

CAUTION - PROPERTY DAMAGE

► Before you connect the appliance to the power supply,

check to ensure that the required input voltage as

given on the type plate tallies with that for the intended

power source.

► Check to ensure that the cable for the power adapter 

is not damaged and that it does not lead over hot

surfaces and/or sharp edges, otherwise it could be

damaged.

► Ensure that the cable for the power adapter  is not

over-taut or kinked.

♦ Connect the power adapter  with the appliance by

inserting the barrel connector  into the plug socket 

at the rear side of the appliance.

♦ Align the light surface  so that the ﬂicker is visible on

the walls and/or ceiling.

STS 12 B2

■ 12 │ GB│IE│NI

♦ Connect the power adapter  into a power socket.

NOTE

► It is best to check the location and alignment of the

appliance in the dark from outdoors and through the

window. Only in this way can you assess whether the

appliance is aligned so that it appears as if someone

is watching television inside.

If necessary, realign the appliance.

Operation

♦ When it gets dark early, for example, in the winter

months, set switch  to „ +6H“. 3 green LEDs light

up immediately. The appliance becomes active at dusk

and, for 6 hours, simulates the ﬂickering of a television.

After 6 hours the appliance switches itself oﬀ, except

for the 3 green LEDs.

As soon as it is dusk again, the appliance switches

back on for 6 hours.

To switch your appliance oﬀ again, you need to slide

switch  to the position “OFF“.

NOTE

► In the case of exposure to light (> ca. 30 lux) the TV

Simulator also switches oﬀ before the 6 hours have

lapsed.

♦ Set the switch to „ +4H“, for example, during

autumn and spring. 2 blue LEDs light up immediately.

The appliance becomes active at dusk and, for 4 hours,

simulates the ﬂickering of a television. After 4 hours the

appliance switches itself oﬀ, except for the 2 blue LEDs.

As soon as it is dusk again, the appliance switches back

on for 4 hours.

STS 12 B2 GB│IE│NI │ 13 ■

♦ To switch your appliance oﬀ again, you need to slide

switch  to the position “OFF“.

NOTE

► In the case of exposure to light (> ca. 30 lux) the TV

Simulator also switches oﬀ before the 4 hours have

lapsed.

♦ When it gets dark late, for example, in the summer

months, set switch  to „ +2H“. A red LED lights

up immediately. The appliance becomes active at

dusk and, for 2 hours, simulates the ﬂickering of a

television. After 2 hours the appliance switches itself

oﬀ, except for the red LED.

As soon as it is dusk again, the appliance switches

back on for 2 hours.

To switch your appliance oﬀ again, you need to slide

switch  to the position “OFF“.

NOTE

► In the case of exposure to light (> ca. 30 lux) the TV

Simulator also switches oﬀ before the 2 hours have

lapsed.

♦ Place switch  at “ON” to have the appliance perma-

nently switched on. To switch your appliance oﬀ , you

need to slide switch  to the position “OFF”.

NOTE

► Neither this TV Simulator, nor any other simulation

systems, can guarantee that you will not be burgled.

However, the TV Simulator conveys to potential burglars

that someone is at home and watching TV.

► In every case, we recommend good door locks and anti-

burglar aids, such as security doors and windows, as well

as an alarm system, to deter burglars from breaking into

your home.
