SHADE INSTALLATION:

Open carton and remove the canopy driver compartment and set

aside. Remove heatsink/leg assembly from carton and carefully set

aside. Placing upright on four (4) legs to avoid scratching or damag-

ing heatsink/leg assembly is recommended. Remove styrofoam

packing insert from the bottom of the carton and place on table or

work surface. Carefully place heatsink/leg assembly upside down

on styrofoam packing insert to facilitate shade installation. (Figure 1)
Place the aluminum, acrylic or glass shade within the four mounting

legs. Position bottom ring in place and align four (4) holes. Thread and

tighten four (4) 3mm hex socket head screws. (Figure 1)

BOTTOM GLASS INSTALLATION:

Thread four (4) knurled standoffs into the bottom ring. Unpack the

bottom floating glass and attach (frosted side towards LED) to the

bottom ring of the frame by aligning the four (4) holes with the four

(4) knurled standoffs. Lock the glass in place with the (4) knurled

cap nuts and carefully tighten. (Figure 1)

FLEXIBLE CORD INSTALLATION:

To adjust the flexible cord length, remove the four (4) screws from

the top of the canopy (Figure 2) and disconnect the red, black and

green driver wires.
Determine the length of exposed flexible cord required. If cutting is

required, loosen the coiled 18-3 cable. Leave only 6-8" for wiring

available. Mark the cable where it needs to be cut. Carefully score

the outer jacket around the diameter of the cable about 6-8" below

the total length. Score the outer jacket lengthwise for that 6-8"

section. Use proper rotary cable slitters such as Ideal #45-128 or

Eclipse #200-009. Remove the outer jacket. Trim off the individual

wire insulation leaving 1/2" bare wire exposed.
Install the internal two-piece cable strain relief. Tighten the two (2)

3mm hex socket head screws in order to hold the cord to the

driver housing/canopy safely (Figure 3).
Reconnect the LED driver to the flexible cable. Connect red to

black, black to white and green to green ground wires. (Figure 4)
Once the flexible cable length is set, adjust the length of the aircraft

cable to match by pulling the excess cable through the canopy. Once

the length is properly adjusted, the excess cable can be coiled and

left in the canopy or may be cut. Prior to cutting cable, the brass

cable retainer must be repositioned. Loosen retaining screw with

Philips head screwdriver, reposition the retainer approximately 1" –

2" from the canopy and retighten the retaining screw. Proceed with

cutting of aircraft cable using proper aircraft cable cutting tools.
Reattach the top of the canopy with the four (4) screws.
There should not be any excess flexible cord in the driver

compartment/top mounting canopy. Per UL1598 and NEC 300.14,

“at least 150mm (6in.) of free conductors and less than 8in., measure

from the point in the box where it emerges from its raceway or cable

sheath shall be left at each outlet, junction and switch point for splices

or the connector of luminaires or devices”.

RIGID STEM INSTALLATION:

For Rigid Stem installation, remove the four (4) screws from the top

of the canopy (Figure 2) and disconnect the red, black and green

driver output wires. The canopy with swivel is designed for sloped

ceiling applications. Determine the length of the stem with external

couplings required.
Loosen the two (2) 3.0mm steel hex socket head screws from the

cable connector. Remove the inner grommet. Slide the stems over

the flexible cord and screw the rigid stem into the cable connector

and tighten the two (2) 3.0mm steel hex socket head screws.

Determine the length of flexible cord required, and follow the flexible

cord installation instructions for the balance of the installation.
