DELIVERY : Upon receipt of fixture and accessories (packed separately), thoroughly inspect for any freight damage. All damage should be re-ported to the delivery carrier. Compare the catalog description listed on the packing slip with the fixture label on the inside of the housing to be sure you have received the correct merchandise.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Prior to Installation–Read carefully before installing light fixtures. If you do not understand these instructions, please contact your local Lithonia Lighting distributor before installing.
NOTE : Horizontal mounting of a fixture with the photocontrol receptacle option (PER)– Section C136.10 ANSI, 4.5.2–The seat of the receptacle shall be mounted as close to horizontal as possible. If it deviates more than 45° from horizontal, the integrity of the seal may be affected when a control device is installed.
Tools Required: 9/64” and 3/16” hex key. 1/4″ and 5/16” hex socket, regular screwdriver

Mounting

Threaded Knuckle Mount (THK): DSXF1 and DSXF2 Knuckle (1/2″ NPT threaded nipple) or DSXF3 (3/4″ NPT threaded nipple) mount directly to compat-ible NPTF apparatus. Secure the knuckle to desired mounting apparatus by tightening the locknut (not included). To adjust the tilt angle of the fixture, loosen the 3/16” hex key screw. Adjust as necessary and retighten to 75 in-lbs. Supply leads exit the knuckle mount to make connections in wiring compartment (not provided).

Yoke Mount (YK):

• For the center hole, it is recommended to use a 5/8” bolt with a corresponding lock washer and nut. For the outer two holes or slots, it is recommended to use ½” bolts with corresponding lock washers and nuts. NOTE: Mounting hardware is not included and it is up to the installer to determine the most appropriate hardware for the desired mounting location.
• To adjust the tilt angle of the fixture, loosen the hex socket screw on each side of the yoke. While holding the weight of the fixture, remove hex head set screw, adjust as necessary and reinstall in the appropriate matching hole. If a non-standard angle is desired, adjust to angle and center punch inside yoke bracket and drill a .147in(#26) hole.
• Drive self-tapping hexhead set screw into new hole. Once the appropriate angle is set, tighten hex socket set screws to 75in-lbs. Make the supply connections to the 16-3 cord supplied.
• DSXF1/DSXF2/DSXF3 (ships installed): Remove the access cover plate to the integral wiring compartment using a 1/4″ hex socket or regular screwdriver. Slip the integral slipfitter onto tenon ensuring that the wires are pulled through the integral wiring compartment without pinching. Secure the slipfitter to the tenon by tightening the 3/16” hex socket set screws to 12 ft-lbs. To adjust the tilt angle of the fixture, loosen the 5/16” hex socket screw above the integral wiring compartment. Adjust as necessary and retighten to 75 in-lbs. Make supply connections through the integral wiring compartment. There are two wiring compartment cover plates, one without through hole and one that includes 7/8″ through hole. If supply wires are coming through inside of tenon, use the cover plate without a through hole. Use the plate with through hole if supply wires are being routed from a source outside of the tenon, such as surface or flexible conduit. Tighten the # 8-32 cover plate screws to 25 in-lbs. When using the plate with a through hole, use connectors rated for liquid-tight sealing. Push wires into the compartment. Re-install the access cover plate.

Shielding Options:

Attach with the 8-32 thread-forming screws (provided) using the pre-drilled holes in the doorframe. Should the doorframe holes need be cleared for any reason, drill no deeper than 1/4″ with a .147″ (#26) diameter drill.

Tenon Slipfitter (DSXF1/2TS) Installation (for use with THK mounting option):

• Attach DSXF1/2TS to fixture’s threaded 1/2″ knuckle.
• Secure to the top end of 1-1/4” to 2” pipe by tightening set screws to 12 ft.-lbs and lock down with jam nuts.
