The HALO Red – Set Up Instructions

How To Customize Your HALO Red

The HALO Red is ready to use straight out of the bag, pre-paired with the included remote. Pressing the remote button activates the light for 3 seconds. You can customize the device using the steps below.


General Notes

  • Setup Button Location: The recessed setup button is in the small hole between the USB-C charging port and the power switch. Use the provided paperclip (or any paperclip) to press it.
  • Reset Anytime: If you make a mistake, simply turn the HALO off and back on to reset the process. You cannot damage the HALO in setup mode.

How to Enter Setup Mode

  1. Turn On the HALO: Slide the power switch to "ON." The red light will illuminate (it’s brighter on one side).
  2. Press and Hold the Setup Button: GENTLY insert the paperclip into the hole and hold for about 3 seconds until a blue light flashes briefly.
  3. Watch for Flash Signals: Once the blue light appears, it will begin to flash in the following sequence:
    • One flash: PAIR Mode.
    • Two flashes: TIMING Mode.
    • Three flashes: UNPAIR Mode.
    • Four flashes: Exit setup mode (you’ll need to restart if you miss your window).
  4. Select Your Mode: Press the setup button again during the appropriate flash sequence to enter the desired mode. (Example: After the blue light flashes twice, press the button again to enter TIMING mode.)

Modes Explained

1. PAIR Mode: Pair a New Remote

  1. Enter PAIR Mode by pressing the setup button once after the single flash.
  2. Within PAIR Mode, press and hold the button on the remote you wish to pair for about 1 second.
  3. The blue light will stay on briefly to confirm the remote is paired. The HALO will then exit setup mode and return to normal operation.

Notes:

  • Each HALO can pair with up to 5 remotes.
  • A single remote can control multiple HALOs.

2. TIMING Mode: Adjust Light Duration

  1. Enter TIMING Mode by pressing the setup button after the two flashes.
  2. Quickly press the setup button the desired number of times to set the duration (e.g., press 7 times for 7 seconds).
    • Each button press resets the 3-second timeout, so you don’t need to rush.
  3. Wait for 3 seconds without pressing anything. The blue light will briefly stay on to confirm the new setting.

Special Case:

  • Set to 0 seconds for "Always On" mode. In this mode:
    • The light remains on continuously at reduced intensity.
    • Control the light using the power switch; the remote will not function.
    • A full charge provides up to 3 hours of operation.
  • To switch out of "Always On," adjust the timing again and restart the HALO (turn off and back on).

3. UNPAIR Mode: Remove All Paired Remotes

  1. Enter UNPAIR Mode by pressing the setup button after the three flashes.
  2. Once in UNPAIR Mode, no further action is needed. The HALO will erase all stored remote keys and automatically return to normal operation.

Troubleshooting

  • Missed Your Mode? If you didn’t select a mode in time (four flashes), simply restart setup mode.
  • Mistakes in Setup? Turn the HALO off and back on to reset.

Limitations

The HALO can store up to 5 remotes.

The maximum light duration is 10 seconds, even if you press more times in TIMING Mode.
