Installation Instructions
First, select the light engine you want to use:

Model No. Type IC
RRCX1OVVCSD YES
RRCX2OWCSD NO
RRCX1OCSD YES
RRCX1 5CSD YES
RRCX25CSD NO

Second, select the reflector kit and assemble with the light engine:

Retrofit Installation

CAUTION: Turn off electrical power at fuse or circuit breaker box before wiring fixture to the power supply.

  1. Remove existing lamp and reflector. If existing trim or can are present, remove from the ceiling or move it out of the way. Make sure to retain existing rough-in kit components. (Fig. 1)
  2. Measure the ceiling opening and ensure the edge of the downlight retrofit will cover the entire hole and sit firmly in the ceiling.
  3. Attach the carabiner safety lanyard to the existing fixture housing. (Fig. 2)
  4. Remove the junction box faceplate. Disconnect wiring to existing ballast. Remove appropriate knock out on junction box.
  5. Connect incoming AC mains power to fixture input leads. Insert the downlight conduit into the J-box and wire to the power source (black to hot, white to neutral, violet to 0-10V dimming positive, pink to 0-10V dimming negative). Reattach the J-box cover when done. (The grounding of the overall system shall be done in accordance with NEC and local codes). (Fig. 3)
  6. Bend the spring clips upward so they are in an upright and insert downlight into hole in the ceiling/housing. (Fig. 4)
  7. Once downlight is inside the ceiling and housing, release the spring clips and push the fixture up into the ceiling until securely fixed and flush with the ceiling (rotating the downlight may be necessary to properly engage the spring clips and ensure a secure fit). (Fig. 5)
  8. For additional safety, connect safety cable onto the ceiling/housing where applicable.
  9. Restore power at the source. The installation is complete. (Fig. 6)

New Construction Installation

CAUTION: Turn off electrical power at fuse or circuit breaker box before wiring fixture to the power supply.

  1. If using a new construction plate, install it in the ceiling first.
  2. If a new hole is needed, cut hole according to downlight cut-out dimension or “Ceiling Cut-out Template” per model number. (Fig. 7)
  3. Attach the carabiner safety lanyard to secure place inside the ceiling. (Fig. 8)
  4. Remove the junction box faceplate. Disconnect wiring to existing ballast. Remove appropriate knock out on junction box.
  5. Connect incoming AC mains power to fixture input leads. Insert the downlight conduit into the J-box and wire to the power source (black to hot, white to neutral, violet to 0-10V dimming positive, pink to 0-10V dimming negative). Reattach the J-box cover when done. (The grounding of the overall system shall be done in accordance with NEC and local codes). (Fig. 9)
  6. Bend the spring clips upward so they are in an upright and insert downlight into hole in the ceiling / housing. (Fig. 10)
  7. Once downlight is inside the ceiling and housing, release the spring clips and push the fixture up into the ceiling until securely fixed and flush with the ceiling (rotating the downlight may be necessary to properly engage the spring clips and ensure a secure fit). (Fig. 11)
  8. For additional safety, connect safety cable onto the ceiling/housing where applicable.
  9. Restore power at the source. The installation is complete. (Fig. 12)
