System Overview

These instructions review how to install Float Plane wall mount fixtures. 4ft, 6ft and 8ft modules can be installed as individual standalone units, or they can be joined together to create continuous runs. The graphics below show the components required to install a typical run of Float Plane wall mount fixtures.

Module Lengths

Float Plane wall mount fixtures come in 4ft, 6ft and 8ft modules. Overall module lengths are shown below. Add 9/16” for each EDGE endcap or 1” for each CURVE endcap. ATTENTION: Install in accordance with national and local building and electrical codes.

1. Install utility box and cover plate Determine power feed location and install 2”x4” utility box (supplied by others) parallel with fixture. Complete electrical connections at box with sup-plied power cord. Crimp supplied strain relief onto power cord insulation (recommend Heyco Tool PN0019(R12). Attach cover using supplied painted hardware.

2. Plan wall mount bracket locationsDetermine wall mount bracket locations based on the allowable distance from fixture ends to brackets, and also factoring in site conditions (location of structural members). Each 4FT fixture requires two brackets, and each 6 or 8 FT fixture require 3 brackets.

3.  Install wall mount brackets Install mount brackets to wall structure using appropriate fasteners (BY OTHERS). Note bottom of installed fixture will sit approx. 3/8” below bottom edge of bracket. Bottom edge of wall bracket to be located flush with bottom edge of cover plate.

4. Install fixture on brackets POWER LOCATIONS: Prior to engaging fixture on mounting brackets, feed installed power cord through one of the power access holes at the back of fixture. With 2 people, raise fixture into position and engage it on hooks located on tops of brackets. Then let the fixture rotate down into position.

5. At power feed location on fixture. Insert a medium size flat blade screwdriver into slots on access panel.

6. Twist the screwdriver and the tab on the access panel will POP UP. Repeat on the other tab on the access panel. Open the wire access panel.

7. Crimp supplied strain relief onto power cord insulation (recommend Heyco Tool PN0019(R12). Complete necessary electrical connections (by others) in compliance with local codes. Push the wires and connectors back down into the wire compartment when complete.

8. Install gasket and endcapsInsert the foam gasket onto the fixture end. Using the supplied plastic rivet, fasten the gasket in place so it doesn’t move during endcap installation. Install LEFT or RIGHT endcap using supplied screws. Align the fixture housing to endcap for best aesthetic before final tightening.

9. Close wire access panelEnsure the electrical connectors are tucked inside the wire cavity. Push down on the lid while simultaneously twisting the flat blade screwdriver, the panel tab will lock into place. Repeat at the other screwdriver slot location.

10. Level & secure firstLEVEL: Using 5-16” nut driver, level fix- ture by adjusting the Tilt screw.
    LOCK: Lock the fixture to wall bracket assemblies by tightening the Lock screw.

11. Join additional fixturesInsert the foam gasket onto the mounted fix-ture end. Using the supplied plastic rivet, fasten the gasket in place so it doesn’t move during fixture joining.
    Note the joining fixture requires its own mount brackets (2pcs if a 4FT, 3pcs if 6/8 FT)

12. Ensure both fixtures are horizontal and mounted at the same height. Snug joining nuts using 3/8” nut driver, align the fixture housings for best aesthetic before final
    tightening. Complete necessary electrical connections in compliance with local codes. Close all wire access panels (step 9) when complete.

13. Level & secure all mounting brackets LEVEL: Using 5-16” nut driver, level fixture by adjusting the Tilt screw.
    LOCK: Lock the fixture to wall bracket assemblies by tightening the Lock screw.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

• Optional 75% down reflector Float Plane Fixtures available with a factory installed, perforated 75% down reflector. For best optical performance, reflector must be installed as shown, SHINY SIDE facing UP. Note down reflector is installed on top of clear acrylic upper diffuser.
• Optional 100% down reflector Float Plane Fixtures available with a factory installed, solid 100% down reflector (shown as hatched lines). For best optical performance, reflector must be installed SHINY SIDE facing UP. Note down reflector is installed on top of clear acrylic upper diffuser.
• Removing & re-installing the upper diffuser
• If the fixture is mis-handled during installation, a shadow may appear in the luminous window. This is caused by the upper diffuser being pushed below the LED.
• Insert finger underneath the upper diffuser and gently pry the panel free along the length.
• Re-install the upper diffuser (SHINY SIDE facing DOWN). If applicable, re-install optional 75 or 100% downlight reflectors on top of diffuser in correct orientation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

Sensor in Rows
Single Sensor Controlling Whole Row

1. Purple & brown (or purple & grey/pink) control wires MUST be connected between fixtures.
   Note :

   • A maximum of 8 drivers can be wired to 8 sensors; confirm fixture driver count with factory.Multiple Sensors Controlling Separates Zones in a Row

2. Purple & brown (or purple & grey/pink) control wires MUST NOT be connected between zones.

Notes :

• A maximum of 8 drivers can be wired to one sensor; confirm fixture driver count with factory.
•  Only one sensor is allowed on a wired zone. (Sensors can be paired together wirelessly via a mobile app).

Sensor Spacing

•  For correct operation, sensor should be placed a minimum distance of 8ft apart.
•  Wireless sensor should be placed no further than 40ft apart for good wireless signal connection.

Important Consideration When Using Sensor in a Row

• For fixtures with wireless sensors (CS, SB or RA options):
  DO NOT connect fixture purple and brown (or purple & grey/pink) control wires to an external dimming switch. Fixture mains wiring should not be connected to a circuit with an external on/off switch.

• For best aesthetic condition, place sensors at ends of row only so as not to break the continuous lens.

• For better occupancy coverage in longer rows, sensors may be placed mid run, but keep in mind this will break the continuous lens into discrete sections. Alternatively, remote sensors may be used, note the same wiring rules will apply.

Occupancy Sensor Coverage:
Note: Longer dimension of detection area (Y1, Y2) is parallel to longer dimension of the luminaire.

Daylight Sensor
The light sensor measures the total amount of light in a circular field of approximately 80% of the PIR detection area. The following aspects should be observed during installation:

• Minimum distance from the window ≥ 2ft (0.6m).
•  Prevent light reflections from outside entering the sensor (for example sunlight re-flection on a car hood) as this will lead to incorrect light regulation.

As a guideline the formula 0.72 X H can be used to calculate the minimum distance be-tween the window and sensor whereby H is the height from the bottom of the window to the sensor.The detection area for the movement sensor can be roughly divided into two parts;

•  Minor movements (person moving ≤ 3ft/s or 0.9m/s).
•  Major movements (person moving ≥ 3ft/s or 0.9m/s).
