1 Click: Normal
With the light turned off, press
and hold the switch. Rotating the light left and right will adjust
the brightness. Once the desired brightness is achieved, releasing
the switch will set the brightness. The light will remember the
setting after switching off, and the memory function is non-volatile
(which means the setting won’t be lost when the batteries are
removed). The stored brightness setting applies to all modes.
2 Clicks: Strobe
The strobe feature is designed
for disorienting or getting somebody’s attention. To adjust the
strobe speed, hold the button on the second click and rotate the
light left or right. The strobe speed can go as low as a slow flash
of about once every two seconds. Click the button to disengage.
3 Clicks: Nite Lite
This is one of the most
interesting modes of this light. When the light is set down, it will
dim to a faint glow until the light is moved. Unlike the XL100, Nite
Lite mode returns to the stored brightness level unless it is below
~50%, in which case it will return to 50%.
4 Clicks: Signal
Since the XL200 uses an
electronic switch, there is no momentary on. Instead, twisting the
light to the left or right will turn it on. Rotate the light back to
the original position to turn off. Click the button again to turn
the light off.
5 Clicks: SOS
SOS is the International Morse
Code Distress Signal, which is three short flashes, three long
flashes, and three short flashes. Press the button again to
disengage.
Lockout
To disable
the light, point the light upwards, press the switch, point the
light downwards, and release. The light will not turn on if the
switch is pressed. To unlock the light, repeat the procedure. This
feature is handy for packing the light and eliminates the need for
crude lockout features such as unscrewing tail caps or removing
batteries.
