Components list

• SloanLED 24 V Class 2 output power supply (refer to “SloanLED Power Supply Guide for Sign Products” for appropriate 24 V power supply models)
• UL approved 18 AWG (1 mm²), or larger diameter supply wire
• UL/CE approved wire connectors appropriate for wire gauge used
• Optional for mounting: Electrical grade silicone, #6 (M3) pan or hex head sheet metal screws, or 1/8″ (3 mm) aluminum rivets

Installation

1. Peel and stick: Clean inside sign with rubbing alcohol and allow to dry. Using predetermined layout and LED placement from previous step, remove tape backing and stick LED strips into place. Ensure strips are firmly attached.
2. Fasteners: Use fasteners or silicone as necessary to fix LED strips into place. Refer to components list above for acceptable fasteners.
3. Connections: LED Strips may be connected in series or parallel, using appropriate UL/CE Listed wire connectors. Cap all unused wires. Connect power supply output to first LED strip on string. See power supply install guide for more information regarding power supply installation. NOTE: SloanLED BrightLINE Outdoor Long and SloanLED BrightLINE Outdoor Short may be connected to same power supply output. Ensure total power consumption does not exceed 90% of power supply output rating.

Extension of Power Supply Leads

If longer lead wire from power supply to LED strips is needed, an extension can be used. Extension should be kept as short as possible, i.e., under 15 ft for 18 AWG UL Listed PLTC (4.6 m for 1 mm² PLTC) or under 50 ft for 14 AWG UL Listed PLTC (15.2 m for 2.5 mm² PLTC).

Troubleshooting

Entire sign or leg does not light after complete installation.| Check connection from power supply lead to first LED strip. Make sure polarity of connections made at the power supply lead and any jumper wire is correct. Power supply outputs should be connected RED-TO-RED and BLACK-TO-WHITE.
---|---
Still does not light.| Check output voltage of power supply using a voltmeter. The output voltage should be DC 24.0 V ± 0.5 V. If there is no output voltage, have a licensed electrician check input voltage. Make sure power supply is connected correctly and getting primary power. If power supply is connected properly and getting primary power and there is still no output voltage, try a different power supply.
Still does not light.| If power supply is getting primary power and LED strips don’t light, there may be a short in the secondary wiring. Check all connections and cap all loose wires.
The beginning of a leg lights, but the entire leg does not light, or lights intermittently.| The primary cause of a portion of a SloanLED BrightLINE Outdoor leg not lighting or lighting intermittently is a bad connection or reverse polarity connection between LED strips that light and LED strips that don’t light. Check this connection.
One LED strip does not light, but

all others in the leg light.

| SloanLED BrightLINE Outdoor is designed so if one LED strip fails, it will not cause the entire sign or leg to go out. If one LED strip does not light, but all others in the leg do, replace this LED strip with a new one.
