Before You Get Started

Important Note: Properly Connect Your Panels.
Read these instructions completely and carefully.
Your Hexagon Panels include two types of ports: Input Ports and Output Ports. Your linking cables must be properly installed to ensure that each Hexagon Panel has power. Here’s what to know:
Input Ports are identified with an arrow. Power comes INTO this port Connect the control box (first panel) or the linking cable from the previous Hexagon Panel into the port marked with an arrow.
Output Ports are identified with numbers. Power LEAVES through this port to provide power to the next Hexagon Panel in your design. Connect the linking cable to any one of the five ports to power the next Hexagon Panel in the sequence. Select the Output Port closest to the Input Port on the next Panel.
Note: One power adapter can power up to 20 Hexagon Panels. For any pattern needing more than 20 Hexagon Panels, you will need to purchase an additional set with an additional power adapter.

Panels are connected in series. Do not use more than one Output Port on any Hexagon Panel.

  2. Connect the control box and power adapter o the first Hexagon Panel using the Input Port (marked with an arrow)
  3. Connect the control box cable by aligning the fab with the indentation on the cable and press the connector downwards to snap info the mounting bracket
  4. Power on the Hexagon Panel, – Keep lights on during installation on to ensure linking cables are properly connected
  5. Connect 1o the Cync App and complete setup,

Preparing the Wall

  1. Clean the wall with the provided cleaning wipe and let dry before moving forward with the installation.
  2. Select a pattern in the Cync App or create your own layout.
  3. Use the layout template to create your design by peeling the backing off the removable adhesive and sticking the layout template to your wall.
  4. Each layout template must be touching at least one flat side of another layout template to complete installation.
  5. Adjust and position templates until you’re satisfied with your design. Ensure your layout is not sloping by using the included level.
  6. Determine the Hexagon Panel that will connect to the control box and power adapter (likely the one closest to your wall socket). This will be the first panel installed in the next step.

Note: Double check your design before proceeding to the next step. Once the Hexagon Panels are installed, they may be difficult to readjust
