LED LIGHTSTRIP
• Extrusions are shipped to exact length of specified measurements.
• Due to cut increment restrictions (2”,+/- 0.125” Tolerance), lightstrip is shipped
to the closest measurement ordered. The lightstrip must be centered inside the
extrusion.
NOTE
• Follow the below diagrams and steps if applicable to your installation.
• LED lightstrip and modules require a team effort to ensure a secure and correct
installation.
• Use a wire puller stand to prevent tangles, twists, and snags when installing.
• For Mud-In applications, start lightstrip from power source side and allow up to
2” of excess lightstrip to exit through end cap.

SOLDERING GUIDE
1
Cut lightstrip to desired length. Include both sets of solder pads by cutting to
the left or right of designated markings, allowing more space for soldering. 4Solder lead wires to solder pads on the end of lightstrip. Solder the positive wire (Red or Black with ridged jacket) to the pad marked “+24V”. Solder the
neutral wire (White or Black with smooth jacket) to the pad marked “-”.
Note: Solder iron not to exceed 720°F. Heat joint with tip of iron. Heat both
the solder pad and the wire. Add a small drop of solder on the tip of solder
iron to transfer the heat to joint quickly; it should melt and flow smoothly,
covering the wire and pad. Remove iron once enough solder has been added
to the components. Allow 5 seconds for the joint to cool.
3
If applicable, use a mat knife to remove encapsulation from the section of
lightstrip with solder pads. If lightstrip is not encapsulated, skip this step.
Note: Appearance of lightstrip may differ from example shown.
Refer to wiring diagrams before soldering any wires.
2
Prepare wires by stripping 1/8” from the end of each wire, then tin the tips of
the wire with solder. Apply heat to stripped portion of wire, then add a small
amount of solder until stripped portion of wire is fully covered in solder.
5If applicable, apply silicone over soldered connections. All connections must
be completely covered with silicone to create weatherproof seal. Only use
outdoor rated silicone. If lightstrip is not encapsulated, skip this step.

1Measure area where luminaire will be installed. Use a laser line to create
a reference line along installation area, ensuring consistent alignment of
mounting clips. Mark location where each mounting clip will be installed
along reference line.
3
Lay mounting clips along reference line and pre-drill using an appropriate
drill bit for surface and screw size. Recommendation: 8/32 x 1” screw.
Note: Allow 0.25” clearance for lateral expansion of assembled mounting clips.
Only install mounting clips on flat, even surfaces.
2
Mark location where mounting clips will be installed.
Note: The number of required mounting clips differs for dry and wet location
products. Verify number of mounting clips is appropriate for installation
environment before installing. Do not install luminaires with inadequate
number of mounting clips.
4
Screw mounting clips to surface, then snap extrusions into mounting clips.
Note: Ensure extrusions are aligned. Misalignment will prevent lens from
snapping in.
5
After all extrusions have been securely mounted, remove adhesive backing
from lightstrip and adhere in place along extrusion channel, ensuring
lightstrip is secure inside extrusion.
Note: Refer to Application Guidelines to ensure correct installation.
7Install lens into extrusion, overlapping where two extrusions meet. Plan
your cuts so that the lens will always overlap where two extrusions meet.
Overlapping lenses helps keep extrusions aligned and prevents light leaks.
8
Perform a continuity test before connecting luminaire to power source.
6If applicable, connect disconnects between luminaires or solder connectors
using the steps from Application Guidelines.

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
• Do not reset the breaker multiple times
• If the unit is overloaded, the breaker will trip, shutting off the transformer and lights
• If the breaker reset button has been held down by hand or any type of pressure,
such as duct tape, or if the breaker has been reset multiple times without
troubleshooting, the unit will:
- Burn the transformer bobbin
- Burn the thermal or magnetic breaker
- Burn the primary or secondary wires due to high amperage caused by overload
- Short circuit in line which will not allow the breaker to reset
- Damage the lighting
CONTINUITY TEST
A continuity test is performed to determine if electricity can pass through two
points on an electrical circuit. This helps identify shorts or malfunctions in the line
or fixture. Use a multimeter or continuity tester to perform the steps below.
• Always perform a continuity test before connecting lighting to power source.
• Malfunctions are not always as obvious as the lights not turning on.
• A short or malfunction in the line or fixture will cause damage over time,
ultimately damaging the lighting and voiding warranty.
1
Turn off power before beginning. Check for any twisting or damage to the
circuit in the LED lightstrip. If there is excessive damage and the circuit is
broken, the lightstrip must be replaced.
2
Check for metal particles or other foreign objects causing the short.
3
Check to make sure cuts in the lightstrip are clean and not frayed, causing
positive and negative copper pads to touch.
1
Turn power off before beginning. Verify power is turned off by using a
non-contact circuit tester. Touch the probe of the tester to positive wire of
the power source. The tester will light up if an electrical current is detected.
2
Setup your tester. First insert the black probe lead into the COM jack, then
insert the red probe lead into the VΩjack.

3Verify that your tester is functional by touching probes together. The tester
should light up, beep, or read 0Ω(ohms) of resistance.
4Touch the red probe to the black wire and the black probe to each colored
wire. If a conductive path is formed between the black wire and any other
wire, the multimeter will beep, flash, or read 0Ω(ohms). Troubleshoot
to identify the malfunction in the line. If there is no conductive path, the
multimeter will not show any feedback.
5Touch the red probe to the fixture extrusion and the black probe to the
black wire. If a conductive path is formed between the extrusion and the
black wire, the multimeter will beep, flash, or read 0Ω(ohms). Troubleshoot
to identify the malfunction in the line. If there is no conductive path, the
multimeter will not show any feedback.
6Touch the red probe to the fixture extrusion and the black probe to the
each colored wire. If a conductive path is formed between the extrusion
and any colored wire, the multimeter will beep, flash, or read 0Ω(ohms).
Troubleshoot to identify the malfunction in the line. If there is no
conductive path, the multimeter will not show any feedback.
7Set voltmeter to DC voltage and test power source. Confirm the correct
voltage before connecting lighting to power source. If voltage reading is
more than 1 volt higher than the marked output voltage, there is a problem
with the power source or driver.
8
Connect power connector to power source. If LEDs do not turn on, flip polarity
(+ -) or power source connection to power connector.
