Installation instructions for PLR-36RGB-150, 120V Reels

PLR-36RGB-150 has cut marks every 39” +/- 1/4”. When cutting, take care to cut square and on the line.

CONNECTING CONTROLLER:
NOTE: THIS PRODUCT IS POLARIZED (MEANING IT WILL ONLY WORK WHEN POWERED AT THE LIVE END)
1. Determine which end of the Polar RGB is the live end.
2. To prep the end of the Polar RGB, push a single barbed pin of the powerpin connector (turned at a
90˚ angle) into the end of the Polar RGB at each of the four conductor locations.
3. Align four pins with four conductors and push powerpin connector into the end of the Polar RGB.
4. Place shrink tube over live end of the Polar RGB and slide back 4 inches or
more to allow room to proceed. See Figure 2.
5. Orient powerpin connector with same orientation as holes of PLR-RGB-EC(LENGTH), as shown
in Figure 2, and insert live end assembly, pushing hard while rocking back and forth to make a
secure connection.
6. Slide end cap completely onto opposite end of the Polar RGB
7. Attach to power source and verify that connection is secure.
If Polar RGB fails to light completely, check for proper connections,
repeating steps 2-4 and re-test. If it still fails to light at all,
check power source.
8. Slide shrink tube over power cord end, overlapping equally over
Polar RGB and EC cord sheath.
9. Using a heat gun, carefully apply heat to shrink tube.
Warning: Shrink tube and assembly will be hot!
Allow to cool before handling or mounting.

MOUNTING
Mounting track (PLR-RGB-TRACK-4) and
mounting clips (PLR-RGB-CLIPS) are available.
(Track is sold separately. Fifty clips are included with each reel.)
NOTE: The Polar RGB acts like a “belt” rather than a “rope”.
To get around a corner, the product may have to turn on edge.
