Lens Removal
-
Lens Removal: To remove snap-in lens for maintenance purposes, insert a flat, smooth edged object between lens and housing (avoid screwdrivers). Twist to release pressure and remove lens.
-
Remove lens from fixture and set aside until fixture installation is complete. Use cotton gloves to handle lenses and keep in a clean environment.
Note: Optional Drop Lens is shipped separately. -
Remove lens and set aside until fixture installation is complete. Use cotton gloves to handle lenses and keep in a clean environment.
Remove the 2 screws securing the lower light engine and temporarily support light engine in position below fixture.
DO NOT ALLOW LIGHT ENGINE TO HANG FROM ELECTRICAL WIRES.
Save screws for re-installation later.
Installation Preparation
-
Remove one louver from end of fixture by pulling gently and temporarily suspend from available holes.
- Remaining louvers can be pushed to center for better access.
- DO NOT ALLOW LOUVER TO HANG FROM ELECTRICAL WIRES.
- For louver-lens combinations, remove both louver and lens. Use cotton gloves to handle lenses and keep in a clean environment.
- If installing a fixture with one power feed location, ensure electrical knockout orientation matches required power feed location.
-
With module 1 on the ground, slide sling cable assembly into top fixture screw chase on both ends of the fixture.
-
Attach two push pins to screw chases to secure sling cable assembly inside fixture during installation process. Gently tap each push pin into the housing leaving a 1/16” gap for easier removal later.
-
Raise fixture to installed level and insert suspension cable inside sling cable assembly. Ensure end of aircraft cable exits from side of sling cable assembly as shown.
Important: Modules must be level relative to each other when joining of sections is required
IMPORTANT: LEVELING INSTRUCTIONS
For side to side leveling, loosen adjustment screw at bottom of cable gripper
and slide slowly until level. When complete, re-tighten levelling screw by
hand.
For vertical leveling, support bottom of fixture, press plunger on top of
cable gripper and slowly lift/lower fixture to desired position. Release
plunger when complete. Ensure fixture is secure before removing support.
-
Ensure module 1 is installed level. Do not install at an angle.
-
Determine power feed location and break ½” electrical knockout at required end. Install ½” bushing from below fixture as shown. Feed power cord from above into fixture wiring cavity.
-
Determine power feed location and break ½” electrical knockout at required end. Install ½” bushing from inside fixture as shown. Feed power cord from above into fixture wiring cavity.
-
- Install and crimp provided cable metal strain relief bushing to secure power cord below fixture bracket. Use a Heyco PN0019(R12) crimping tool to ensure proper installation. If installing a standalone fixture, skip to step 13.
-
With module 2 on the ground, tap joiner aligners inside top and bottom screw chases as shown.
IMPORTANT: To allow for proper joining, ensure each center aligner tab is fully inserted inside module 2 housing, about ¼” past the middle point. -
Raise module 2 to installed module 1 position. Install and secure sling cable assembly of module 2 and at opposite. Remove push pins from module 1. IMPORTANT: WIRING INSTRUCTIONS Quick wire connectors (supplied) are used for through wiring connections between fixtures. Wire nuts (by others) are used for connection of power drops wiring to fixture wiring.
-
Bring modules close together, support module 2, complete wiring connections and tuck wires inside fixture wiring cavity. Engage joiner aligners from module 2 inside module 1.
-
Ensure all connections are secure and all wires are fully tucked inside fixture wiring cavity. Slide fixture modules together gently. Level fixtures.
-
Secure fixture modules together using the two #10-32 machine screws and the two Self-locking #10-32 nuts supplied. Tighten until joint seam is tight.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten. -
Before installing the endcap, slide the sensor towards the center of the fixture to gain access. Proceed with endcap installation for drop lens, step 13c.
-
Place drop lens endcap as shown over the emboss of endcap and proceed with endcap Installation of endcap, step 13c.
-
Slide endcap onto end of fixture module and secure from below using two #8-32 X 3/8″ screws. Ensure excess aircraft cable does not interfere with endcap attachment. Use ratchet or angle driver to tighten screws until endcap seam is tight.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten. -
If a corner is required, it is recommended the corner module be installed first. All corners come with a factory installed cable sling assembly in the middle.
-
If installing a square or rectangular closed pattern, it is recommended to install opposite U-shaped fixture/corner patterns first and complete the installation by bringing U-shaped sections together as shown.
-
Reinstall the lower led pans with the screws provided. Ensure direction of light is as shown on layout drawings.
-
Installation Tip: For easier installation, start on one end of the louver pressing gently on side tabs. IMPORTANT: For asymmetric louver fixtures, orient the arrows on the louver pan to point at the label on the outside of the housing.
-
Install lenses removed in step 1. Installation Tip: For easier installation, start at a housing end or a joint by placing lens at an angle and squeezing in slightly from the other side to guide inside housing.
-
Once lens is positioned inside housing, starting on one end or joint, push upwards gently and work outward to complete the run.
Note: Flush lens and drop lens are installed the same way. Flush lens is shown for reference. -
Installation Tip: For easier installation of corner lenses, start at the corner and work outward to complete the run. Follow steps 18 and 19.
-
Installation filler plate before installing louvers. Tin: For easier installation. start ov louvers. Tip: For easier installation, start by squeezing filler plate in slightly from both sides and guiding inside housing.
-
Installation Tip: For easier installation, star on one end of the louver pressing gently o side tabs.
-
Finishing
- Ensure all fixtures and corners are level and in line with each other.
- Trim excess vertical aircraft cable installed in step 4.
- If horizontal leveling is required, loosen adjustment screw shown in step 4, level fixture and re-tighten screw.
- Check that all joint or endcap screws are installed, and all seams are tight.
- Use spare 1/2″ plug(s) provided to close any open 1/2″ electrical knockout location(s) in top reflector.

Sensors in Rows
Single Sensor Controlling Whole Row
- Purple & brown (or purple & grey/pink) control wires MUST be connected between fixtures.
Note:
A maximum of 8 drivers can be wired to one sensor; confirm fixture driver count with factory.
Multiple Sensors Controlling Separate Zones in a Row
- 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, sensors should be placed a minimum distance of 8ft apart.
- Wireless sensors should be placed no further than 40ft apart for good wireless signal connection.
Important Consideration When Using Sensors in a Row
-
For fixtures with wireless sensors (CS. SB or RA options):
DO NOT connect fixture purple & 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 sensor 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 reflection 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 between the window and sensor whereby His the height from the bottom of the window to the sensor.
