PREFACE
The METEOR LSR36240 series of a compact
ultra-thin underwater pool light with built-in
driver is designed to use the latest LED lighting
technology.
The surface-mount designed casing enable
very simple installation on the flat surface
without any surface preparation during
construction and the max. diameter of the hole
through the wall is 8 mm.
The METEOR LSR36240 series is available in
stainless steel casings. The lighting is available
in white, blue, green or RGB colors with 36
power LEDs.
The multi-color RGB version allows changing
of the color of lighting manually or
automatically through the complete rainbow
spectrum.
The most advanced electronic design with
built-in microprocessor enables network
connection and simple control of complete
group of lights with dimming.

Installations
PRECAUTIONS
•The underwater pool light has to be
installed and used in accordance with the
instructions of this manual only.
•The power supply has to be disconnected
before installation.
•The underwater pool light is recomended to
be installed around 0.2 m below the water
line for the best illumination and to avoid
over-heating.
•The optical window must be clear and not
covered by any kind of isolating or other
material.
•The optical window has to be cleaned with
a mild soap or detergent and lukewarm
water by using a soft cloth or sponge. Do
not use abrasive or highly alkaline cleaners.
Never scrape with razor blades or other
sharp instruments. Benzene, leaded
gasoline, acetone or carbon tetrachloride
should never be used.
•Do turn power off immediately and refer
servicing to qualified service personnel if
the underwater pool light does not operate
normally following the operating
instructions.

COMPONENTS AND CONNECTORS
(1) Optical window
High-grade polycarbonate glass optical window.
(2) Underwater pool light casing
Stainless steel casing with fixing holes and cable gland.
(3) Cable
The 4-pole multi-core cable to connect the 12-24Vdc power supply and optional remote control or
switch.
(4) Fixing screw
The fixing screws to fix the underwater pool light on the wall.

INSTALLATION
The underwater light kit consists of the following components:
•Underwater Light METEOR LSR36240
•4 x fixing screw 5.5x50 with wallplugs
•Operating Instructions with Declaration of Conformity and Warranty conditions
The METEOR LSR36240 has to be installed on a flat surface on the pool wall under waterline.
Do not try to install the underwater pool light while the pool is filled with water.
When the installation is finished briefly test the underwater light prior to fill the pool with water.
The installation have to be realized by a qualified personnel.
Note:
•Avoid using the underwater pool light out of the water for more than 2 minutes.
The underwater pool light is protected by a temperature sensor against over-heating.
When the temperature of the underwater pool light exceeds 85°C the underwater pool light
is automatically switched off.
Wall preparation
The underwater pool light is recommended to be installed around 0.2 m below the waterline for the
best illumination and to avoid over-heating.
To fix the underwater pool light with screws 5.5x50 the diameter of holes drilled into the wall has to
be 8 mm.
The diameter of the hole for cable gland drilled through the wall has to be 10 mm.
Sealing
Before inserting the cable with gland through the hole the sealant has to be used into the grooves,
around the four fixing holes and around the gland in the rear surface of the underwater pool light.
The sealant can be on silicon basis but the best solution is two-component polymer sealant.

6
Fixing
The underwater light has to be fixed with four screws 5.5x50 with wallplugs.
Note:
•Do not overtighten the screws as this can result in underwater pool light damage.
Earthing
The underwater pool light has to be earthed by using a pre-tinned green wire with a yellow stripe a
minimum of 8 AWG (8.36 mm2). The wire has to be connected to the underwater pool light by the
help of one fixing screw 5.5x50.
Connection
The power supply has to be connected through the main switch (not included) with correct polarity
and protected by a fuse (not included). The power supply voltage has to be from 10 - 30Vdc.
Note:
•The power supply has to be switched off before installation.
The underwater light has to be connected as described in the table below:

GND Control
Remote control and network connection
Single-color cool white (W), warm white (WW), blue (B) or green (G) models
To remotely turn-on and turn-off the underwater pool light the simple switch (not included) can be
used and connected to the CONTROL wires by using a 2-pole signal cable (not included).
Note:
•If the remote control is not used at single-color models for normal operation the both
CONTROL wires have to be bridged and insulated or connected to the GND.
Optional PWM dimmer LDU13 can be connected to the CONTROL wires by using a 2-pole signal
cable (not included).
Multi-color (M) model
To control the mode of lighting the simple momentary-switch (not included) has to be used and
connected to the CONTROL wires by the 2-pole signal cable (not included).
Optional LXU01 or LXU03 interfaces can be connected to the CONTROL wires by using a 2-pole
signal cable (not included).

CONTROLS
Single-color cool white (W), warm white (WW), blue (B) or green (G) models
Remote control can be used to turn-on and turn-off the underwater pool light and to control the
luminosity.
Dimming
The dimming are enabled by using optional PWM dimmer LDU13.
DMX512 control
The network connection to control the lights with the standard DMX512 protocol is enabled by using
optional PWM dimmer LDU13 and optional LXU01 or LXU03 interfaces.
Multi-color (M) model:
Remote control has to be used to turn-on and turn-off the underwater pool light and to control the
mode of lighting and luminosity.
The multi-color underwater pool light can be controlled by using the momentary-switch.
When the light is turned-off the color or mode of lighting can be changed sequentially by pressing
the momentary switch for 2 seconds:

Sequence of lighting
Custom Color
Full RGB
Cool White
Bluish White
Red
Green
Blue
Rainbow Color Spectrum
Turning on /off
Press the momentary-switch shortly.
Changing the color or mode of lighting
When the light is turned-off press the momentary-switch for 2 seconds.
Setting the Custom Color
At the selected Rainbow Color Spectrum mode press the momentary-switch shortly to turn the light
off. After that press the momentary switch for 5 seconds or until the light is switched to the selected
color and then the Custom Color is set and selected.
Dimming
When the light is turned-on press the momentary-switch until the desired illumination is achieved. By
another pressing of the momentary-switch the luminosity will increase to the maximum illumination.
Set default
Press the momentary switch for min. 40 seconds or until the light is turned off.

8
Synchronization
When more than one multi-color underwater pool light is connected to the system the optional
Synchronization Unit LSU08 is recommended to synchronize the colors of lighting at the Rainbow
Color Spectrum mode of lighting. On the other case the colors of all installed lights would not be the
same after few minutes or hours of operation in the Rainbow Color Spectrum mode.
If the multi-color light is used only with one of the fixed color of lighting the synchronization is not
necessary.
DMX512 control
The built-in ASTEL protocol enables the network connection to control the lights with the standard
DMX512 protocol by using optional LXU01 or LXU03 interfaces.
