TRANSFORMER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Transformers must be installed in accordance
with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local codes.
Failure to do so will void the warranty and may result in
serious injury and/or damage to the transformer.
The Transformer is for wall mount only. Use appropriate
mounting hardware suitable for the mounting surface.
1. Mount transformer to a solid surface using stainless
steel screws and anchors. Refer to Fig 3. for drilling
dimensions.
CAUTION: Make sure screws are of a load bearing quality.
CAUTION: Transformer should be mounted at least 1.5 ft
from the ground for safe and convenient operation.
2. To open the cover of Transformer, unscrew four screws
located on the sides of the transformer shown in Fig. 2.
CAUTION: When reassembling cover, position all wires
inside the housing and make sure no wires are pinched.

TRANSFORMER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
TRANSFORMER SIZING
There are two transformers oered, 75W and 100W
The total lamp wattage of all xtures connected to one
transformer must not exceed 80% of the transformer
wattage capacity. To determine the total number of xture
that can be connected to the transformer, follow the formula
below.
75W Transformer: Maximum available Wattage = 60 Watt
100W Transformer: Maximum available Wattage = 80 Watt
For example:
If 5W xtured are used, only 12 xtures can be used with
75W Transformer and 16 xtures can be used with 100W
Transformer.
LOW VOLTAGE CABLE LENGTH
Low voltage cable is available in #16-2GA in multiples of
100ft.
Recommended Voltage Drop should be less than 1.5
volts. Calculate the maximum cable length using the
formula:
Voltage Drop (Volts) = Total Power for xtures on Cable
(Watts) x Length of run (Feet) x 2
Cable Size Constant
Cable Size Constant for 16AWG is 2200.
MULTITAP INSTALLATION
Multi-Tap transformers supply output voltage which exceeds
12 Volts. The transformer supplies output voltages of 12,
13, 14, and 15 Volts. Extreme care must be taken during
installation to avoid xture burnout due to high voltage. Use
of a voltmeter during installation is the only way to ensure
a proper voltage at the xture. Multi-tap on the transformer
can be used to correct voltage drop. Make sure the voltage
test is within ±1.5V of 12V.
Connect one side of xtures (common) up to 75/ 100 watts
per circuit, using 16 AWG or larger direct burial cable. Strip
3/4” of cable insulation and twist wire strands tightly before
insertion into transformers output terminals. Tighten
connector screws rmly.

12 VOLT CABLE LAYOUT OPTIONS
Connect one side of each lamp to COMMON terminal
and the other side to 12V-15V terminal as needed.
CAUTION: Measure the closest and furthest xture to
ensure the voltage test is within ±1.5V of 12V.
1. Straight run installation - Fixtures run in sequence
directly from the transformer.
2. Loop installation - Fixtures are arranged in a looped
circuit, reducing the eects of voltage drop.
3. Hub load installation or multiple cable run - Fixtures
run in two or more directions from the transformer.
Locating the transformer in the center of the run
reduces the eects of voltage drop.
4. T installation - Allows more equal distribution of
power to the center of the run, or to a run some
distance away. Cable running from the transformer
must be of a heavier guage.

TRANSFORMER INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PHOTOCELL CONTROL
Photocell and Timer may be used together. To install
photocell, follow the following steps below:
1. Disconnect power to transformer.
2. Knock out side knock out hole to mount photocell.
3. Install 120V swivel photocell. Aim photocell toward the
sky and tighten lock nut.
4. Remove Shorting Plug and plug the 120V swivel
photocell to transformer enclosure.
5. To test in daylight hours, plug in Transformer.
6. For normal operation, remove cap from photocell.
TIMER SETTING
TIMER SEGMENT BUTTONS:
Programmable timer segment buttons are located in
the outer perimeter of the Timer. Timer can be set by
pressing the timer buttons. Each buttons represents 30
minutes.
TIME READOUT:
Timer readout displays each day hours (6:30AM to
6:30PM) and night hours (6:30PM to 6:30AM are shown
Fig. 5).
ROTATING TIMER DIAL:
Rotating timer dial can be turned only clockwise.
It points to the current time of the day on the TIME
READOUT.
TIMER SWITCH:
Timer switch is located on the side of the TIMER. By
sliding the switch to timer clock will activate timer
and sliding the switch to “ON” overrides the timer and
enables normal use of the outlet. The timer switch is
shown on Fig. 6.
1. Programming ON/OFF times
Ensure all segments are pulled up before
programming.
Select a time period (or periods) you want the device
turned on.
Push down all the TIMER SEGMENT BUTTONS that
fall on or within that time period. You may need
to turn the dial clockwise to access the desired
segments.
Turn the ROTATING TIMER DIAL clockwise until the
pointer on the face of the dial points to the current
time of day.
2. Preparing the timer for use
Plug the TIMER into the outlet on the transformer.
Ensure the transformer is switched ON for automatic
control as shown in Fig. 7. (The timer will not turn
the light xtures ON if the transformer is switched
OFF.) To override the timer and use the transformer
normally, set the MASTER SWITCH to ON position.
This will deactivate timer control of the transformer.
To reactivate timer control, ensure the transformer
is turned ON, and set the timer MASTER SWITCH to
TIMER (Fig. 6). In case of power failure, reset the time
of day as explained in step 1.

1. Using the timer
Set the MASTER SWITCH to the TIMER (picture of clock)
position.
Plug the timer into the outlet on the transformer.
The device will turn ON and OFF at the programmed
times.
TROUBLESHOOTING
All of the lights fail to turn on
1. Check that the power switch is not in the OFF
setting.
2. Check if there is a loose connection at the
transfomer screw terminal.
3. Check that the transformer outlet is live and that the
timer is plugged in.
ONLY SOME LIGHTS TURN ON
Check the connectors to make sure the wire stabs have
pierced the transformer wire and the xture wire.
THE LIGHTS ARE ON” DURING THE DAY
The transformer photocell is in a dark area which triggers
the photocell to turn ON the lights.
THE LIGHTS DO NOT SWITCH ON” AT DUSK.
The transformer photocell is not in a dark area which
triggers the photocell to turn ON the lights.
THE FIXTURE DOES NOT TURN ON
Ensure the transformer power switch is in the ON
position.
THE LIGHT FIXTURES TURN ON/OFF DURING THE DAY
INSTEAD OF NIGHT OR NIGHT INSTEAD OF DAY
Check section TIMER CONTROL for timer instructions.
