Troubleshooting

Symptom Solution

Row of modules

does not light

• Check wire connections to power supply to ensure red stripe-to-red and white-to-black or blue connections.

• Check row-to-row polarity connections.

Sign does not light • Check input and output voltage and check power supply input/output connections.

• Check polarity connections.

Individual modules

do not light

• Remove module and replace with another working module.

Modules are dim • Ensure the overall length of the Tetra

LED system does not exceed the maximum load.

• Ensure the length and gauge of the supply wire is equal to or below the recommended remote mounting distance.

Retrot Instructions

1. (Existing Signs Only) Prior to installation, survey the site for information regarding power and accessibility inside and outside the building. Ensure

that the branch circuit supplying the existing transformer or ballast will be within the voltage ratings of the new LED power supply, and have

a current rating not exceeding 20A, or that permitted by applicable local, state, or country electrical codes (whichever is less).

2. (Existing Signs Only) Remove the existing lighting equipment to be replaced, such as neon tubing or uorescent tubes; and associated transformers

and ballasts. Care should be taken not to break the existing neon or uorescent tubes.

NOTE: Follow all federal and local regulations when disposing of neon tubing, uorescent tubes, transformers and ballasts.

3. (Existing Signs Only) If removal of the existing lighting equipment eliminates the disconnect switch, as required by applicable local, state, or country

electrical codes; a new disconnect switch must be installed.

4. (Existing Signs Only) Make sure the removal of lighting equipment does not compromise the integrity of the sign body (i.e. water intrusion). Fill in all

holes 0.5 in. (13 mm) or smaller with the appropriate amount of rated caulk or sealant. For holes greater than 0.5 in. (13 mm), use an aluminum or

zinc coated steel patch with rivets and sealant.

5. Using the layout guidelines above, determine required number of LED modules required to illuminate the sign.

6. A Tetra

24VDC Class 2 Power Supply, as listed below, must be used with this retrot kit. Using the Maximum Loading chart below, determine the

number of Tetra

Class 2 Power Supplies required to power the number of LED modules required to illuminate the sign, so as not to overload

the Tetra

Class 2 Power Supply chosen.

7. Follow the instructions above to properly mount the LED modules.

8. Connect the DC output of the power supply to the LED modules using the Electrical Connections instructions above.

9. Connect the power unit to the supply in accordance with the applicable local, state, and country electrical codes, and the instructions found in the

power supply installation guide.

10. If required, the disconnect switch shall be installed by qualied personnel, in accordance with applicable local, state, and country electrical codes.
