in-lite HYVE Low Voltage Garden Light

Product Information

The in-lite HYVE is a low-voltage LED lighting fixture that can be used on various types of outdoor surfaces such as concrete, natural stone, wooden structures, and fences. The fixture is made of impact-resistant polycarbonate and features a high-quality LED light source that has a long lifespan and low energy consumption. The product comes with installation guidelines in different languages including Dutch, English, German, French, and Spanish. It is important to note that the low-voltage cable that comes with the product should not be used with 100-240V systems as it is only suitable for use with a 12V low-voltage system. The product is designed to be used within the in-lite system, and using other products may void the warranty.

Product Usage Instructions

Before installation, read the installation guidelines thoroughly and keep them for future reference.
To install the fixture on a 12V system, follow these steps:
Use a suitable saw or diamond bit drill to create a hole with a diameter of 60mm in wooden or stone surfaces respectively.
Thread the fixture connector through the hole and place the fixture carefully into the recess. If necessary, trim some of the ribs to fit it into the hole.
Connect the Easy-Lock connector to the main cable by clamping the cable tray on top of the main cable, placing it with the cable at the bottom into the Easy-Lock connector, and screwing the threaded cap onto it. This will press the contacts into the insulation material of the cable.
Place the Easy-Lock directly under the hole in the sand bed for easy access later.
Connect the fixture to the main cable by attaching the mini-connector.
If the fixture does not function correctly, check that the EasyLock connector is properly connected to the main cable and mini-connector. Repeat steps 3, 4, and 5 if necessary. If the contacts of the Easy-Lock connector are bent during installation, contact your dealer for assistance.
To maintain the fixture, wipe it with a clean cloth and warm water at least once a year.

General Installation Guideline

During installation, make sure that all components are easily accessible for replacement.

Important!

Never connect the low-voltage cable directly to a 100-240 V power source. It is only suitable for use in combination with a 12 V low-voltage system. This product should only be used within the in-lite system. Use of products other than those made by in-lite will invalidate the warranty.

Enjoy the lighting in your yard.

Connecting the fixture to 12 V

The already installed lamp means the fixture is immediately ready for use. Therefore you do not need to install the lamp first.
This fixture can be built into various sorts of decorative paving, such as concrete or natural stone, or wooden constructions such as decking, fences, etc.

Step 1

To fit into the wood, use a suitable saw for cutting holes with a diameter of 60 mm / 2.4 inches. If working with stone or similar materials, use a diamond drill bit, available from your dealer. Drill holes where appropriate before beginning to fit the fixture. (Fig. 1)

Step 2

Feed the connector for the fixture through the hole and then carefully insert the fixture into the recess. Place the protective plate on the fixture and use a synthetic hammer to tap the fixture into the recess. (Fig. 2)
NB: If the hole is too small you can cut a bit off each of the ribs.

Step 3

Join the Easy-Lock connector to the main cable. (Fig. 3)
a. Clamp the cable duct on top of the main cable.
b. Place the cable duct (with the cable at the bottom) in the EasyLock connector.
c. Tighten the threaded cap on the Easy-Lock connector. This will cause the contacts to be pushed through the insulation on the cable. In tightening the cap, a little gel is applied to the contacts in the Easy-Lock connector. This serves to protect the contacts against moisture. A little gel may possibly come out of the Easy Lock connector: so after installation (and/or before a meal), wash your hands with soap and water, and avoid the gel coming into contact with your eyes.

Step 4

Install the Easy-Lock directly below the hole in the sand bed. That way you can easily reach it whenever necessary.

Step 5

Connect the main cable to the fixture by connecting the mini-connector. (Fig. 4)
If the lamp does not work correctly, check that the Easy-Lock connector is properly connected to the main cable. Do the same for the mini connector. Repeat steps 3, 4, and 5. When the fixture is connected to the main cable also check that the contacts of the Easy-Lock connector are not bent. If you have any problems, contact your dealer.
