SaunaChrome™White LED Control Kit Installation
Carefully unpack and inspect your kit to verify the correct components are included. Verify that the serial number
on the back of your control matches the one located on the back page of this manual. The base White kit comes
with a “single color” LED touch control and a flush-mount box for recessing the control into your wall., This kit will
give you full-function control of your white LED lighting. Designed to be used exclusively with our 8 and 60w 12vdc
power supplies, 10cm LED light strips, Recessed Ceiling Pucks and 1w Mini-spot light, all sold separately.
READ INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING YOUR INSTALLATION!
Components of Base White Kit:
9227-337 LED Touch Controller with input/output RJ45 connections
8093-065 Recess mounting box
2310-10 RJ45 In-line connectors (qty: 2)
Instruction manual

4215-128 Rev 1 TyloHelo Inc. Page 3
Verify that the serial number in the warranty
section on page 10 of this manual matches the
serial number on the back of your touch control.
Serial number is located on the back of
the touch control as shown at right.
Step 1.
Your touch control should come pre-wired with
2 RJ45 cables for input/output power. If you are
replacing an existing touch control, connect the
12vdc input cable to the terminal block on the
back of the glass touch screen control panel.
The brown wire will connect to the “V-“
position.
The white with orange stripe wire will
connect to the “V+” position.
Note: The screw terminals may need to be
turned counter-clockwise 6-8 turns prior to
inserting the stripped wire.
Step 2.
Attach the 12v LED output cable as shown at
right (if not already done at the factory)
The brown wire will connect to the “L-“
position.
The White with orange stripe wire will
connect to the “L+” position.
Strip about 3/16” insulation from each wire before inserting
into the terminal block.

Step 3.
Install Flush mount enclosure to exterior of sauna
wall. The touch control will mount to this box for
a clean, custom installation.
If your project requires a surface-mounted
control (ie; poured concrete or block wall), a
plastic vapor-resistant box and a metal box for
use with conduit are available from TyloHelo.
Vapor Resistant Surface Mount Box: 8093-065
Requires small bead of silicone caulk (not included)
around edge to make vapor resistant.
Metal box for use with conduit: 8093-064
Determine the location for your touch control and mark the
location with a 3” x 3” “box”.
Make sure this area does not lie directly over framing
members or electrical utilities of your sauna wall.
Use a level to ensure the lines are drawn square.
Hint: Take into account door or window trim that may be
added later in your sauna construction. You will want to leave
plenty of room for these.
Remove the wall material from the marked area using a jig
saw.
Verify that no framing members or electrical utilities
are located behind this area BEFORE drilling/cutting!
Drill out the 4 corners first and simply connect the
holes with your jig saw.

With wall material removed, pre-fit the flush mount enclosure
to make sure it fits snug and level in the opening.
When satisfied with the fit of the enclosure in the sauna wall,
push the two black tabs outward and pull each forward until
they make contact with the back of the wall surface.

4215-128 Rev 1 TyloHelo Inc. Page 6
Using a screw driver or utility knife, carefully remove the
upper and lower knock-out tabs so the control cables can be
routed outside of the enclosure.
Remove the glass touch panel from the touch control by
carefully inserting a small flat-blade screw driver into the slot
as shown above and use a twisting/prying action to separate
the glass from the control.

Step 4:
Mount the touch control to the enclosure.
It is important to have access to the back side of
your touch control in order to easily connect your
power and distribution cables to the control.
Leaving the wall open inside the sauna will allow
for easy wiring. If leaving the wall open is not an
option, you will want to pre-install the CAT5
power and distribution cables at the time of
framing and connect them to the control panel
by inserting them through the back side of the
enclosure before securing the enclosure to the
exterior sauna wall.
CHECK ORIENTATION OF CONTROL BEFORE
SECURING TO YOUR ENCLOSURE!!!
Insert the two CAT5 cable ends into the upper or lower
opening in your enclosure. (upper will allow more cable to be
in the wall)
Hint: Pre-install one RJ45 inline coupler to each cable end
prior to installing in enclosure.
Secure the panel to your enclosure using the two M3.5 x
30mm screws that were included with your kit.
Do not over-tighten the screws! Snug them until the
panel is firmly held in place.
Be sure to orientate the panel with the red LED
located at the upper left corner, as shown above.

4215-128 Rev 1 TyloHelo Inc. Page 8
Snap the glass panel onto the control by aligning the notches
on the bottom of the panel first then pivoting the glass panel
horizontal. Use light pressure to “snap” the glass cover in
place.
Be sure to orientate the glass panel with the small
clear “window” aligned with the red LED on the
control panel. The power icon should also be
correctly orientated with the vertical line in the 12:00
position.
Correctly orientated panel shown above.

Step 5:
Making the electrical connections
The 12vdc input cable on your control should be
connected to either our APV-8-12 or APV-60-12
low voltage transformer, included with your
specific light kit.
8-port splitter kit included with optional light kits.
Your optional LED light kit includes one 8-port
splitter with RJ45 connections. You can connect
up to 8 LED light fixtures to your system using
this splitter.
DO NOT CONNECT A HOME AUTOMATION OR
HOME NETWORK SYSTEM TO THIS SPLITTER!!
DO NOT EXCEED THE RATED WATTAGE OF THE
TRANSFORMER YOU ARE USING!!
If the CAT5 cables provided in your kit are not
long enough, you may source any CAT5 cable
with RJ45 ends (Ethernet) as a substitute.
This splitter can be located in any convenient
location such as on top of your sauna or in an
adjacent utility room. Never locate the splitter
inside sauna cabin UNLESS you are enclosing it
inside a water-tight junction box!
Connect the 12vdc “IN” cable from the touch control
to the 12vdc transformer using an RJ45 in-line
connector. (if additional length is needed, use any
standard CAT5 Ethernet cable) The brown and blue
wires from the transformer will need to be connected
to a constant 120vac/15amp power source.
Note: Your 12vdc transformer may differ from that shown in
photos.
Connect the 12vdc “OUT” cable from the touch
control to the male plug on the 8-port splitter via the
RJ45 in-line connectors. Once this is done, any of the
8 open ports on the splitter are “live” and can be
connected to the LED light bulbs, strips or mini-spot
using the shorter (1 & 2 meter cables) provided in
your kit. Any extra cable can be simply rolled up and
secured with a twist-tie.
If only installing one light fixture, you can connect
directly to the fixture with your CAT5 cable and will
not need the 8-port splitter.

Step 8.
Using your touch control
The glass touch control is a “capacitive” device
and will only respond to human touch. Do not
use any metal or other foreign objects to try
operating the control. Reference diagram at right
for specific control functions.

How to calculate combined watts of your lighting system
Find the wattage rating for the fixture(s) that you are using from the chart below. Multiply this
by the number of same fixtures you have for total watts consumed. Never exceed the
maximum watts rating of your transformer!!
Fixture Type
Rated Watts each
10cm LED strip
1 watt
MR16 LED Bulb
.5 watt
Mini-Spot, adjustable gimbal
1 watt
Example
To calculate the watts consumed in the example shown on page 12:
8 strip lights = 8 watts + 2 MR16 bulbs = 1 watt + 1 Mini-spot = 1 watt
Total Watts = 10w
The available transformers from TyloHelo are either the APV-8-12 (8 watt) or APV-60-12 (60
watt) so in this example we will need to use the APV-60-12. Our Technical Support and Sales
Staff will help you select the correct transformer for your project needs.
