Please read the following pages before attempting installation to ensure complete understanding of
Lumishore ECLIPSE SMX53. This product should only be installed, inspected, and maintained by a qualied
electrician only, in accordance with all applicable electrical codes. Be certain electrical power is OFF before
and during installation and maintenance.
Before you start:
• Always ensure that the vessel’s power source and baery are disconnected or isolated prior to installaon.
• A qualied professional should carry out both the electrical and mechanical installaon.
• For best underwater illuminaon, LUMISHORE recommends installaon 4” to 12” (100-300mm) below the
minimum load water line.
• Choose a locaon - The light must be mounted on a at (not curved) surface. For underwater installs mount
on transom or side hull only.
• A hole will be drilled to allow the cable to be inserted; care must be taken to ensure there is unrestricted
access inside the hull.
• When installing three or more lights, equal spacing 2.5’- 3’ is recommended to give a consistent light pool.
• The light is temperature sensive and must not be located close to the exhaust outlet or other heat source.
• SMX53 Lights operate on 12V or 24V DC. Never connect a light directly to the mains AC voltage, or DC voltage
other than that specied.
• For Installaon on boats up to 15m (50 ). Isolaon kit (39-0203) MUST be used on boats with conducve
hulls.
• The light cables can be extended. Ensure the correct cable gauge is used to avoid issues with voltage drop.
Follow ABYC recommendaons for no more than 3% voltage drop at 12V, and 10% at 24V. Consult a qualied
electrical installer, or contact Lumishore for further informaon.
• Ensure the lights are tested, and working as expected before the boat goes back in the water. DO NOT switch lights
on when covered.

Mechanical installaon
Tools: Drill, drill bits, marine sealant (3M 4200, or equivalent),F2 Frearson type screwdriver, Flat head screw
driver, cloth for clean-up:
Pilot Hole for Screws - 9/64” / 3.5mm
Hole for Cable - 9/32” / 7mm
Recess for Gland - 17/32” / 13.5mm hole to a depth of 5/8” / 15mm
1. Select a suitable at surface that is accessible from behind and ensure the cable can be run without a
problem.
2. With one hole at the boom center, mark and drill the pilot holes for the screws & drill a ø4mm
counter bore to a depth of 5mm in each locaon. Drill the power cable hole. The cable hole must be
recessed on the outside of the hull to accept the cable gland on the back of the light, so that the lights
sits ush.
Note: Cored hulls must be sealed prior to ng the lights - refer to the manufacturers instrucons.
3. Clean and prepare the hull ready for the sealant.

4. Apply a connuous thick bead of sealant to the back of the light, making sure the recess on the outer
edge is slightly overlled. Also apply a bead of sealant around the cable gland. Refer to image above.
5. Push the power cable through the hole and align the light with the pilot hole screws.
6. Aach the light using the 3 supplied screws by hand ghtening with a screwdriver.
IMPORTANT: Do not over ghten. Do not use power tools to ghten screws.
7. Use a damp cloth to wipe o excess sealant that has squeezed out around the light. DO NOT use
chemical cleaners or solvents.
IMPORTANT: Refer to the direcons on the sealant to make sure it has fully cured before
launching the boat into the water.

Electrical installaon - SUPRA Lumi-Hub
Note: This opon requires a Lumishore SUPRA i-Connect Hub (60-0317) and SUPRA i-Connect Switch
(60-0318). The SUPRA i-Connect Hub is Lumi-Link compable which allows control via cered MFD or
connected device (SUPRA Bridge PN: 60-0368) - See SUPRA Bridge installaon manual for further details.
Plan the installaon rst. Work out where the lights will be mounted. Each light connects to the hub using a
eld installable connector (supplied). One hub can power up to 4 lights, and 4 hubs can be connected
together in one system. The hub should be mounted between the lights and the power source. Plan the
cable routes, including the switch, prior to installaon. Ensure all cables are marine grade, and are correctly
rated for TOTAL current, and voltage.

Note: Four hubs can be connected together. All they need is power connected, and a pre-moulded data
cable run between the hubs (see connecng mulple hubs secon for wiring diagram).
Installing the Hub(s)
1. Select a site for the installaon of the SUPRA i-Connect Hub(s). This should be within reach of the light
cables that will be aached to the hub(s). The hub(s) should be in a dry, well venlated area. The hub(s)
should NOT be mounted in areas prone to ooding or excess heat.
2. The hub(s) should be mounted to a at surface, with room for access to the fuse panel and connectors.
3. Mount the hub(s) as close to the power source as possible. Run the power cable to the hub(s) from the
power source.
4. Remove the clear fuse panel and insert the fuses (supplied):
12V DC 7.5A
24 V DC 4A
Once the fuses are in place replace the fuse panel.
5. Select a posion for the SUPRA i-Connect Switch. Mount the switch and run the cable to the hub. Con-
nect the switch connector to the hub. The switch cable can be extended up to 50m. To extend, cut the
switch cable, and connect in a 18 AWG, 3 core cable of the desired length. Take care to ensure that the
correct conductors are connected together.
6. Add the eld installable connector to the light cables (supplied). The light cables need to be cut back to
reveal the third (data) wire.
Trim back the insulaon on each core to reveal 4mm of wire.
Cut the cable just below the
heat shrink. Remove the outer
insula�on to reveal the yellow
wire

7. Unscrew the back of the connector to reveal the terminals. Fit the strain relief and gland nut over the
cable BEFORE wiring the connector.
8. Wire the connector as shown below. TAKE CARE to secure the wires well with the grub screws. Check for
any stray strands that could short to the other pins before ng the strain relief and gland nut.
Note: Check the wiring is correct before connecng to the hub. Incorrect wiring can damage the light.

10. Make sure that any unused ports on the hubs have dust caps ed (supplied)
11. Connect power to the hub and switch on. Make sure the lights are tested, and working as expected
before the boat goes back in the water.
The lights operate in White, Blue, Strobe, Synchronized Strobe, Color Fade mode, and Synchronized Color
Fade mode.
Connecng a second Hub
You will need a second SUPRA i-Connect Hub(s) (60-0317) and DMX extension cables (1m - 60-0403, 5m -
60-0404 or 15m - 60-0405)
Each hub can power up to 4 lights, and up to 4 hubs can be connected together in one system. To add a
second hub follow the diagram on Page 11.

Cleaning and maintenance
LUMISHORE lights require simple cleaning. Lights should be checked oen to ensure the light body and lens
area are free from sea growth. In the event that your light requires cleaning, we recommend the use of a
so cloth or so bristled brush.
• DO NOT use any abrasive cleaning materials as these may damage the body of the light.
• DO NOT use any cleaning uids that contain solvents, acids or alkali’s.
• DO NOT clean using pressure washing or sandblasng equipment.
Slight discoloraon of body may occur over life. This does not aect performance, and is not subject to
warranty.
Due to nature and high build quality it may on rare occasions be possible to see small levels of condensa-
on, this is normal for high power LEDs and will disappear aer cooling and does not harm operaon in any
way.
If the lens of the light is covered for any reason, e.g. maintenance, or painng DO NOT switch the lights on
unl the covers are removed.
Warranty
LUMISHORE Ltd warrants the SMX53 to be free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period of
two years, starng from the date of original purchase. Misuse, abuse, improper installaon, neglect, im-
proper shipping, damage caused by disasters such as re, ood, and lightning, installaon by unqualied
personnel, unauthorized repair or modicaon will void this warranty. For the avoidance of confusion and
doubt, non-compliance with all installaon, maintenance and operang instrucons in this document con-
stute non-conformance with warranty terms.
