Run a wire from the power supply to inside the sign
and connect to the rst module on the strip.
NOTE:
Exceeding maximum load will cause the power
supply to shut down. If overload occurs, remove excess
load, recycle the input power to restart the power supply.
Connect the red stripe wire (+) of the LED system to
the red wire (+) of the power supply. Connect the white
wire (-) of the LED system to the black or blue wire (-)
of the power supply.
Connect modules using twist-on wire connectors or
in-line (IDC) connectors. Join white wires together
and red striped wires together.
NOTE: Additional supply wire may be necessary to
bridge electrical connections.
Cap all exposed wires with appropriate end caps
or apply electric grade (non-corrosive) silicone for
additional weather protection.

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.
Ensure the overall length of the Tetra® LED System does not exceed the maximum load.
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) Repair and seal any unused openings in the electrical enclosure. Openings greater than 12.7-mm (1/2-in)
diameter require a metal patch secured by screws or rivets and caulked with non-hardening caulk. Smaller openings may be sealed
with non-hardening caulk.
5. Using the layout guidelines above, determine required number of LED modules required to illuminate the sign.
6. A 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 Power Supplies required to power the number of LED modules required to illuminate the sign, so as not to
overload the 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.
