4. Installation Instructions

These LED panels are designed for easy installation. Ensure you have all necessary accessories (12V power supply, interconnect cables, switch/dimmer) before beginning. Refer to the diagram below for visual guidance.

Installation Steps:

1. Secure Panels: Install and secure each Pro Series LED panel onto a flat surface. This can be done using adhesive backing (not included) or by utilizing the screw mount holes located on each end of the panel with the provided screws.
2. Interconnect Panels: Use 22AWG interconnect cables (sold separately) to connect multiple panels. Ensure connections are secure.
3. Connect to Control: Connect the cable from the initial panel in your series to an in-line switch or dimmer (sold separately).
4. Connect to Power: Connect the switch/dimmer to a compatible 12VDC power source (sold separately). The power supply typically converts 110 VAC household current to 12 VDC.

Important: Ensure all connections are correct and secure before applying power. Consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure about any wiring procedures.

5. Operating Instructions

Once properly installed and connected to a power source and control switch/dimmer, operate the LED panels as follows:

• Power On/Off: Use the connected in-line switch to turn the LED panels on or off.
• Dimming: If a compatible dimmer is installed, adjust the dimmer control to achieve the desired brightness level.

6. Maintenance

Inspired LED Pro Series panels are designed for long-term, maintenance-free operation. Follow these guidelines to ensure optimal performance:

• Cleaning: To clean the panels, ensure power is off. Gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the LEDs or housing.
• Inspection: Periodically check connections for any signs of wear or looseness.
• Environment: Ensure the panels are used in a dry, indoor environment within their specified operating temperature range.

7. Troubleshooting

If your LED panels are not functioning as expected, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Light:
  • Verify that the power supply is properly connected and receiving power from the wall outlet.
  • Check all interconnect cables between panels and to the switch/dimmer for secure connections.
  • Ensure the switch is in the 'ON' position.
  • Confirm the power supply is functioning correctly and providing 12VDC output.
• Flickering Lights:
  • Check for loose connections in the wiring.
  • Ensure the power supply is adequate for the total number of panels connected. An undersized power supply can cause flickering.
  • If using a dimmer, ensure it is compatible with LED lighting and properly installed.
• Uneven Brightness:
  • This can sometimes occur with very long runs of LED panels if the power supply is at one end. Ensure the power supply is appropriately sized.
  • Check for any damaged panels or connections.

If issues persist after performing these checks, contact Inspired LED customer support for further assistance.
