Use precautions to avoid damages to the product or injuries of users. Any actions against following contents will cause serious
issues such as malfunction, electric shock, or burn.
USE DC12V ONLY
DC12V
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
LED module
Failure will cause dimmed output
Cable length between SMPS and the rst LED
module is limited. Refer to ‘CONNECTION
WITH POWER SUPPLY’ on page 2
Do not use the product under circumstances
listed below
- High temperature spots over 60˚C (140˚F)

PRECAUTIONS
PREPARATION
PREPARE CHANNELS
1. Clean moisture and dust inside 2. Make holes 3. Use bushing to protect wires
1. Wipe out dust, water, and oil inside. 3M tape will come o easily if product is mounted on uncleaned surfaces.
2. Make holes for wires from modules to SMPS.
3. Without bushins, wires will easily be cut and short-circuit will occur.
*Use white paint inside the channels for better reection

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.
CONNECTION GUIDE
80 mm 200 mm 400 mm 316 mm
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.

**PSCS-0600-12, PSCS-1000-12 are not weather-proof
Equip with protective box for outdoor use and the box should have ventilating holes
Make sure that each run should have 50 modules at max
and should use another run in parallel to connect more
Should use thicker wires which can take larger amount of current
than the amount transmitted from the power supply unit

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
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

Entire sign or leg does not light
after complete installation.
Check connection from power supply lead to rst module. Make sure polarity of connec-
tions 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.
Probably AC input wire is connected to ground terminal of power supply. If power supply
is connected properly and getting primary power and there is still no output voltage, try a
dierent 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 rst 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
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 diusing acrylic sheets
which are specially made for LED light source.
Still has spots.
