DO NOT USE AC INPUT
AC INPUT
Do not cut or rejoion wires while product
is connected wth live power source
Maximum driver quantity per serial
connection is limited. Failure causes overload
of current and damages to the product
Refer to‘WIRE THICKNESS’table to use proper
wire thickness between SMPS and the rst

PRECAUTIONS
PREPARATION
PREPARE CHANNELS
1. Clean moisture and dust inside 2. Make holes 3. Use bushing to protect wires

Use 10% to 20% shorter length
than usual for circular arrange
Use recommended length for pitch between each module to achieve optimum lighting output while maintaining lowest unit
cost. Failure or misplacing will cause dimmed spots or uneven appearance of light on the surface.

EXTENSION OF POWER SUPPLY LEAD WIRES
*Maximum quantity for S-LED is based on 85% of specied capacity of power supplies for extended lifespan
**PSCS-0600-12, PSCS-1000-12 are not weather-proof
Equip with protective box for outdoor use and the box should have ventilating holes
Maximum driver quantity per serial connection is limited. Using more quantity per run will cause overload from SMPS which
damages all connected products. This will cause voltage drop and also dimmed lighting output.
CAUTION
Keep extension lead wires as short as possible.
Refer to below table for specic length.

1. DETERMINE LAYOUT
Refer to‘LAYOUT DENSITY GUIDELINES’on page 2 to
determine spacing and amount of LEDs required.
SUPPORTS FOR OUR SIGNMATES
Ask us to obtain accurate layout
Stroke Width
Channel Depth
2. PEEL AND STICK
Using predetermined layout and LED placement
from step 1, remove 3M tape on the back of modules
and stick them into place. Ensure modules are rmly
attached on the surface. CAUTION
When handling the module, avoid pressing
down directly on top of LED lamp
The strand of modules should not be looped to
create a closed circuit.
3. CAP ALL UNUSED WIRES
Wire Nut
Using predetermined layout and LED placement
from step 1, divide channels into sections and
distribute each section to corresponding power
supplies.
CAUTION
Before connect with power supplies, check
polarity on every connections
4. CONNECT WITH POWER SUPPLY & TEST
FASTENERS : If desired, modules can be secured
with M2.5*15 metal screws.
SILICON : If desired, modules can be secured with
silicon. Do not to put silicon on the top of the LED
lamps.
SET CONTROLLER TO STATIC WHITE MODE
1. Push and hold‘MODE’ button for 3 seconds to switch to
static mode. Indicator on R, G, or B should be on.
2. Use ‘UP’ and ‘DOWN’ button to set all numeric values of
R, G, B to‘255’. Modules should have static white color now.
3. Check for dark spots on all channels
5. FIX MODULES PERMANENTLY
6. CHECK LIGHTS AND SPOTS

Entire sign or leg does not light
after complete installation.
Check connection from power supply lead to first module. Make sure polarity of connections
made at the power supply lead and any jumper wire is correct. Power supply outputs should
be connected red-to-red and white-to-white.
Check output voltage of power supply using a voltmeter. The output voltage should be
12.0VDC ± 0.5VDC. If there is no output voltage, have a licensed electrician check input
voltage. Make sure power supply is connected correctly and getting primary power. If power
supply is connected properly and getting primary power and there is still no output voltage,
try a different power supply.
Still does not light.
If power supply is getting primary power and the modules do not light, there may be a short
in the secondary wiring. Check all connections and cap all loose wires.
Still does not light.
The primary cause of a portion of a S-LED leg not lighting or lighting intermittently is a bad
connection or reverse polarity connection between the modules that light and the modules
that don’t light. Check this connection.
Beginning of a leg lights, but the
entire leg does not light or lights
intermittently.
S-LED is designed so if one module fails, it will not cause the entire sign or leg to go out. If one
module does not light, but all others in the leg do, replace this module with a new one.
One module does not light, but
all others in the leg light.
Check each run has no more than maximum number of modules. Also ensure that type of the
extension wire from SMPS to the first module is correct. If wires are not thick enough to
transmit current from SMPS, this will cause voltage drop and will dim the modules at the end.
All modules light, but some of
them are dimmed.
Channel depth is too low, or center distance between modules is too far. Refer to 'LAYOUT
DENSITY GUIDELINES' for more information.
Dark spots or dimmed spots
occur.
Covering acrylic is not intended for LED illumination. Use light diffusing acrylic sheets which
are specially made for LED light source.
Still has spots.
