Step 2: Feed Wires and Open Junction Box
Pull building supply wires through ceiling cutout and open fixture junction box door (See FIG. 2).
Remove desired housing knockout and feed building wires into housing using appropriate connector.
FIG. 2: Shows pulling wires through the ceiling cutout and opening the junction box, with a detail of a knockout.
Step 3: Connect Fixture Wires
Connect fixture wires to building wires: insert each supply wire into appropriate junction box connector. This fixture features electronic low voltage (ELV) or 0-10V dimming capabilities.
To utilize ELV, wire black (line hot), white (line neutral), and green (ground) in accordance to dimmer specifications.
To utilize 0-10V dimming, wire purple (dim+), gray (dim-), black (line hot), white (line neutral) and green (ground) in accordance to dimmer specifications.
When not using a dimmer, connect black fixture wire to hot, white fixture wire to neutral and green fixture wire to ground. Leave all other wires capped individually (See FIG. 3).
FIG. 3: Illustrates wire connections: Black (Hot), Green (Ground), White (Neutral), Violet (Dim +), Gray (Dim -). Shows how to connect these to building wires.
Step 4: Secure Junction Box
Place all wiring and connectors back in junction box and replace the junction box's cover (See FIG. 4).
FIG. 4: Depicts placing the wired connectors back into the junction box and closing its cover.
Step 5: Secure Housing
Guide junction box through the cut hole and secure appropriately using either internal mounting slots or external key hole (See FIG. 5).
FIG. 5: Shows the junction box being guided through the ceiling cutout and highlights the 'Key Hole' and 'Mounting Slots' for securing the housing.
Step 6: Insert Upper Frame
