Installation Instructions
1. Layout your installation prior to removing adhesive tape backing. Tape is available in
multiple lengths to get to the distance required. Although the tape can be cut every
4”, connectors cannot be attached to cut ends. Cut ends are for termination of run
only. When cutting the tape, look for cut mark illustrations which can be found ever
4”. There is not a cut mark illustration every 12”. When cutting where no cut mark
illustration is present, make sure to cut down the middle of the soldering.
2. Locate driver in the center of the installation if possible to achieve maximum run
distance. Connecting cords are available in 7”, 13”, and 73” lengths if driver needs
to remote from tape. Do not exceed distance of 24’ from driver to tape installation. If
tubes over cord connections to make sure cords do not disconnect.
3. Do not exceed maximum runs listed on chart on reverse side of these instructions.
Connecting cords may be used between sections of tape when necessary. The
length of the connecting cord does not affect maximum run. Maximum run distances
listed are the length of tape only. Do not exceed distance of 12’ between 2 sections
of tape.
4. Make sure surface tape is adhering to is free of dust and dirt. If surface is irregular
you can use mounting clips or channel or a secure installation. Wire clips can be
used to secure power and connecting cords.
5. All end terminations must be capped. Silicone end cap will terminate either cut or
connector ends.
6. Connector pins are made of brass and care needs to be taken not to bend pins
during installation.
