This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment
is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at his own expense.
This Class [A] RFLD complies with the Canadian standard
ICES-003. Ce DEFR de la classe [A] est conforme à la NMB-003
du Canada.
RISQUES DE DÉCHARGES ÉLECTRIQUES
• Coupez l’alimentation avant l’inspection, l’installation ou le déplacement.
• Assurez-vous de correctement mettre à terre l’alimentation électrique Tetra®.
RISQUES D’INCENDIE
• N’utilisez que des ls approuvés par UL pour les entrées/sorties de connexion.
Taille minimum 18 AWG (0.82mm2)
• Respectez tous les codes NEC et codes locaux.
Prepare Electrical Wiring
Electrical Requirements
• Acceptable for use in dry, damp and wet locations.
• The grounding and bonding of the LED Driver shall
be done in accordance with National Electric Code (NEC)
Article 600.
• Follow all National Electric Codes (NEC) and local codes.
Tips
• For optimal light uniformity in halo-lit applications the Tetra® LED
modules should be mounted on UL recognized plastic and the light
output from the Tetra® LED system should be directed back into the
sign enclosure. This will allow for uniform backlighting of the sign
and will provide simple mounting for the Tetra® LED system.
• A best practice for the supply wire at the point at which it is brought
into the sign is to have a drip loop on the inside of the letter to keep
water from collecting on the Tetra® LED strip.
• These products are not required to be enclosed or protected from
weather.
This product is intended solely for the use of non-residential signage
lighting and is not intended for use in any other applications.

Use rivets, screws, or silicone
to secure at least every fth
LED module within the channel
letter. Use #6 (M3) or #8 (M4)
pan headed metal screws,
1/8-inch (3.2 mm) rivets, or
silicone.
Measure and cut Tetra LED

strip to the appropriate length
for each letter. Cuts can be
made between any of the
modules.
Drill a 1/4” (6.4 mm) hole near
the LED strip and grommet the
hole for supply wire access.
NOTE: For halo-lit applications LED modules should be mounted on UL
recognized clear acrylic or polycarbonate. The light output from the LED
system should be directed back into the sign enclosure. This will allow for
uniform backlighting of the sign and will provide simple mounting.
Remove tape backing and
stick LED modules into place.
Continue until you have
reached the end of the strip.
Clean and remove all debris
from the inside of the channel
letter. Replace sign face.
