INSTALLATION

BACK MOUNTING

1. Drill 1/4″ holes into oblong knockouts on backplate that correspond to junction box holes to be used. (See Figure 1)
   

2. Feed the transformer input leads through the center hole and make the proper connections. If using 120VAC, connect the black and white leads to the building utility. If using 277VAC, connect the orange and white leads to the building utility. Cap off the unused wire. If the unit is self-powered, be sure to snap the battery connector together.

3. Feed the excess wire into the junction box and secure the backplate to the junction box. (See Figure 1)

4. Snap-in arrows on EXIT panel as required. Then snap EXIT panel to housing: top first, then the bottom. (See Figure 1)
   NOTE: Use flexible conduit only. (See Figure 2)
   

INSTALLATION CONTINUED

SIDE MOUNTING

1. Attach crossbar to the junction box. Set the crossbar so that the longer blade is touching the junction box. (See Figure 3)
   

2. Open the EXIT housing. (See Figure 4) Feed the transformer input leads through a side-hole, being sure to secure the wire into wire guides molded at the edges of the sign. (See Figure 3)
   

3. Attach sign to the canopy by inserting canopy into a sign at an angle, then twisting to secure. (See Figure 3)

4. Make the proper supply lead connections. If using 120VAC, connect the black and white leads to the building utility. If using 277VAC, connect the orange and white leads to the building utility. Cap off the unused wire. If the unit is self-powered, be sure to snap the battery connector together.

5. Feed the excess wire into the junction box and align holes in the canopy with holes in the crossbar. Use screws supplied to tighten the canopy to the crossbar so the canopy is securely fastened and tight against the wall. (See Figure 3)

6. Snap-in arrows to EXIT panel as required. Then snap EXIT panel to housing: top first then the bottom.

CEILING MOUNTING

1. Attach crossbar to the junction box. Set the crossbar so that the longer blade is touching the junction box. (See Figure 5)
   

2. Open the EXIT housing. (See Figure 4) Feed the transformer input leads through the top hole, being sure to secure the wire into wire guides molded at the edges of the sign.

3. Attach sign to the canopy by inserting canopy into a sign at an angle. Twist to secure. (See Figure 6)
   

4. Make the proper supply lead connections. If using 120VAC, connect the black and white leads to the building utility. If using 277VAC, connect the orange and white leads to the building utility. Cap off the unused wire. If the unit is self-powered, be sure to snap the battery connector together.

5. Feed the excess wire into the junction box and align holes in the canopy to the crossbar so that canopy is securely fastened and tight against the ceiling.

6. Snap-in arrows to EXIT panel as required. Then snap EXIT panel to housing: top first, then the bottom.
