Safety Information
WARNING : It is recommended whenever working in or near water to have all electrical devices plugged into a ground fault interrupter (GFCI) that has been installed by a licensed electrician
- To reduce the risk of electrical shock or damage to the light, all wiring and junction connections should be made per local codes. Requirements may vary depending on usage and location
- The power cable should be protected at all times to avoid punctures, cuts, bruises, and abrasion.
- Operating the light fixture outside of the 10.8-15 volt operating range voids the product warranty and may damage or shorten the life of the LEDs.
IMPORTANT : Aquascape, Inc. is not responsible for losses, injury, or death resulting from a failure to observe these safetyprecautions, misuse or abuse of pumps or equipment.

Installation
MOUNTING OPTIONS
- Choose the option that works best for each light.
- Removable mounting stand (#84059 and #84060 only)
- Remove the threaded nut from the fixture holder and insert holder into the base. Use the threaded nut to secure the fixture holder (Ex. 1).
- Landscape stake (#84059 and #84060 only)
- Remove the threaded nut from the fixture holder and thread the stake clockwise into the bottom of the fixture holder (Ex. 2).
- No stand or stake
- The lights can be used without the fixture holder to allow the fixture to be disguised between rocks (Ex. 3).
- Adjusting the light angle
-
- To adjust the angle, push up or down on the fixture holder until it “clicks” into the desired position (Ex. 4).
- Waterfall and Up Light Base (#84057 only)
- The pre-installed stand can be removed for installation in tight spaces (Ex. 5).
CONNECT LIGHT FIXTURES
-
Aquascape color-changing lights include 5-pin, quick-connect fittings to provide tool-free electrical connections.
WARNING : Do not cut or remove the quick-connect fitting or isolation chamber, as it will damage the light and void the warranty (Ex. 6). -
Color-changing splitters and extension cables are available to install multiple lights. See the recommended products section for available extensions and splitters.
-
Connect lights to Aquascape color-changing splitters and extensions (Ex. 7).
NOTE : Quick-connect connections must be fully tightened to prevent water from entering. Dielectric grease, available at most home improvement stores, can be used in all connections to further prevent water infiltration. -
For installations with existing low-voltage lighting or components, split the power after the transformer, before the color-changing lighting control hub, to run color-changing light off the existing transformer (Ex. 8).
WARNING : Do not submerge quick-connect fittings, as moisture entering the connections will damage the lights.
SMART CONTROL HUB INSTRUCTIONS
-
The Aquascape Smart Control Hub is required to power and control Aquascape color-changing lights.
-
Connect the light, splitter, or extension to the 5-pin quick- connect fitting attached to the hub (Ex. 9).
NOTE : Each Smart Control Hub can control up to 150-watts of color- changing lights.
NOTE : Multiple Smart Control Hubs can be used to assign Ex. 9 multiple colors simultaneously.
NOTE : The Smart Control Hub is weather resistant, but not waterproof. Install it off the ground and protected from the elements. -
Aquascape color-changing lights are designed to operate on a 12-volt, outdoor-rated transformer (not included).
NOTE : It is recommended to locate the transformer as close to the light fixtures as possible to avoid voltage drops caused by long cable runs. -
Plug the transformer into a GFCI-protected outlet.
PAIRING PROCEDURE
-
Plug the Smart Control Hub into a 12-Volt transformer, and the unit will automatically enter pairing mode.
NOTE : The blinking blue light on the face of the unit indicates the hub is in pairing mode and ready to be connected. -
