Product Dimensions

Setup

AC Power
The ILS Command comes with an external auto-ranging power supply which can work with an input voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz and outputs 5 VDC. To determine the product’s power requirements (circuit breaker, power outlet, and wiring), use the current value listed on the label affixed to the product’s back panel, or refer to the product’s specifications chart. The listed current rating indicates the product’s average current draw under normal conditions

Always connect the product to a protected circuit (a circuit breaker or fuse). Make sure the product has an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.
To eliminate unnecessary wear and improve its lifespan, during periods of non-use completely disconnect the product from power via breaker or by unplugging it.

Never connect the product to a rheostat (variable resistor) or dimmer circuit, even if the rheostat or dimmer channel serves only as a 0 to 100% switch.

Mounting
Before mounting the product, read and follow the safety recommendations indicated in the Safety Notes. The ILS Command has 4 rubber feet for placing on a flat surface. Make sure adequate ventilation is provided around the product.

Maintenance

Product Maintenance
Dust build-up reduces light output performance and can cause overheating. This can lead to reduction of the light source’s life and/or mechanical wear. To maintain optimum performance and minimize wear, clean all lighting products at least twice a month. However, be aware that usage and environmental conditions could be contributing factors to increase the cleaning frequency. To clean the product, follow the instructions below:

Unplug the product from power.
Wait until the product is at room temperature.
Use a vacuum (or dry compressed air) and a soft brush to remove dust collected on the external surface/vents.
Clean all transparent surfaces with a mild soap solution, ammonia-free glass cleaner, or isopropyl alcohol.
Apply the solution directly to a soft, lint free cotton cloth or a lens cleaning tissue.
Softly drag any dirt or grime to the outside of the transparent surface.
Gently polish the transparent surfaces until they are free of haze and lint. Always dry the transparent surfaces carefully after cleaning them.
