TIP: For best results, space Long modules 2/m (19.7" on
center) and Short modules 4/m (9.8" on center). For best
performance in a single-sided box, mount modules on
returns, near rear wall of box (~.5 – .75"[1 – 2 cm]). For a
double-sided sign box, mount modules in center of returns.

For best performance
Layout Guidelines It is recommended to test LED density in a sample cabinet to evaluate brightness, uniformity, and color.
If you have questions or require assistance in testing, please contact your SloanLED Customer Service Representative.
Mounting Tabs
Primary Wires
Secondary Wires
4. Mount Power Supply: Identify primary
wires, secondary wires, and location of
mounting tabs.
3. Connections: Modules may be connected
in series or parallel. Modules should not be
looped to create a closed circuit. Cap all
unused, exposed wire ends.
2b. If desired, double-stick tape can be used to mount
modules. Before mounting, clean mounting
surfaces inside of sign box with rubbing alcohol
and allow to dry for proper tape adhesion.

5. Units may be mounted in any orientation
using mounting tabs.
6. Connect primary: CAUTION!
Have a licensed electrician connect primary.
7. Connect to power supply: Using UL Listed
electrical connectors, daisy chain product as
required and connect to power supply.
CAUTION: Luminaire should be positioned so that prolonged staring into
luminaire at a distance closer than 12.7" (322 mm) is not expected.
ATTENTION: Le luminaire doit être placé de manière à ne pas provoquer de
regards prolongés dans le luminaire à une distance inférieure à 322 mm (12.7").
WARNING: Connect Red striped wire of LED modules (+) to Red wire of power supply (+). Connect White wire of LED modules
(-) to Black wire of power supply (-). Reverse polarity connections may damage the LEDs and will void product warranty.
AVERTISSEMENT: Connectez le l rouge des modules LED (+) au l rouge de l'alimentation (+). Connectez le l blanc des modules
LED (-) au l noir de l'alimentation (-). Des connexions inversées peuvent endommager les DEL et annuler la garantie du produit.
Retrot Instructions for Existing Signs
WARNING: Risk of re or electric shock. Install this kit only in host signs that have been identied in the installation instructions, and
where the input rating of the retrot kit does not exceed the input rating of the sign. Installation of this LED retrot kit may involve drilling
or punching of holes into the structure of the sign. Check for enclosed wiring and components to avoid damage to wiring and electrical
parts. AVERTISSEMENT: Risque d’incendie ou de choc électrique. Installez ce kit uniquement sur les panneaux hôtes identiés dans
les instructions d'installation et dans lesquels les caractéristiques nominales d'entrée du kit de modication ne dépassent pas celles du
panneau. L’installation de ce kit d’amélioration des LED peut impliquer de percer ou de percer des trous dans la structure de l’enseigne.
Vériez le câblage et les composants inclus pour éviter d'endommager le câblage et les pièces électriques.
GENERAL PURPOSE
RETROFIT SIGN CONVERSION.
FOR USE ONLY IN ACCORDANCE
WITH KIT INSTRUCTIONS.
KIT IS COMPLETE ONLY WHEN ALL PARTS
REQUIRED BY THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE PRESENT.
CAUTION: Turn o󰀨 power to sign before inspecting or removing existing light source. Power must remain o󰀨 while installing LED product.
ATTENTION : Coupez l'alimentation générale du panneau avant d'intervenir ou de retirer la source lumineuse existante. L'alimentation générale doit
être coupée tout au long de l'installation du kit de remplacement en LED.
1. Identify sign to be retrot and ensure branch circuit supplying existing sign are within voltage range for LED power supply.
Refer to components list (page 1) and "24 VDC Power Supply Capacity Chart" (page 3).
2. Remove existing lighting equipment intended to be replaced, such as neon or uorescent, and all power supplies, transformers, or ballasts.
Remove existing neon and all stando󰀨s to leave an empty sign cabinet. NOTE: All materials removed must be disposed of in accordance with
applicable local, state, and federal laws.
3. If required by local, state, or national electrical code, install a new disconnect switch.
4. Determine suitability and structural integrity of existing sign after removal of existing lighting equipment. If retrot does not require the making
of any new holes, do not make or alter any open holes in an enclosure of wiring or electrical components during kit installation. If existing holes
are present in a wet or outdoor location sign, repair and seal any unused openings in the electrical enclosure.
Openings greater than 0.5" (12.7 mm) diameter require a metal patch secured by screws or rivets and caulked with non-hardening caulk.
Smaller openings may be sealed with non-hardening caulk.
5. Clean inside of sign using non-oil based cleaner. Follow all manufacturer’s instructions and ensure inside of sign is dry before proceeding with
installation. This is an important step for good adhesion of PosterBOX ID module mounting tape.
6. To populate sign, refer to PosterBOX ID density guidelines as well as power supply capacity chart (page 3) to determine appropriate number of
modules and power supplies. A list of acceptable power supply models is shown in the supplemental "SloanLED Power Supply Guide for Sign Products".
7. Follow all instructions on pages 1 and 2 under "New Installation" to properly install LED modules.
8. Connect modules to power supply output as shown on page 2 under "New Installation".
9. Connect power supply input as outlined in power supply installation guide in accordance with local, state and national electrical codes by
qualied personnel. Refer to power supply install guide included with power supply for details.
10. If required, install disconnect switch in accordance with local, state and national electrical codes by qualied personnel.

Troubleshooting
Entire sign or leg does not light
after complete installation.
Check connection from power supply lead to rst module. Make sure polarity of connections made at power supply lead and any
jumper wire is correct. Power supply outputs should be connected RED-TO-RED STRIPED (+) and BLACK-TO-WHITE (-).
Still does not light. Check output voltage of power supply using a voltmeter. Output voltage should be DC 24.0 V ± 0.5 V. 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 modules don’t light, there may be a short in secondary wiring.
Check all connections and cap all loose wires.
The beginning of a leg lights,
but entire leg does not light or
lights intermittently.
The primary cause of a portion of a PosterBOX ID leg not lighting or lighting intermittently is a bad connection or reverse polarity
connection between modules that light and modules that don’t light. Check this connection.
One module does not light, but all
others in leg light.
PosterBOX ID is designed so if one module fails, it will not cause entire sign or leg to go out. If one module does not light, but all others
in leg do, replace this module with a new one.
If longer lead wire from power supply to LED product is needed, an extension can be used. Extension should be kept as short as possible,
i.e., under 15 ft use 18 AWG UL Listed PLTC (4.6 m for 1 mm² PLTC) or under 50 ft use 14 AWG UL Listed PLTC (15.2 m for 2.5 mm² PLTC).
