Helios Series

Installation & Users Manual

Connecting 0-10V Control

All 0-10VDC wiring should be done with shielded pair wiring with the shield grounded to earth at the

controller. The pair does not need to be twisted. We particularly recommend this when low end dimming

performance is of high importance as un-shielded analog control wiring runs are susceptible to interference.

Fixture dimming performance is dependant on driver quality. The Helios Series is designed to dim from 100% 

- 10% of maximum intensity.

Connect 2-wire cable to terminals via flexible 

conduit. 

Conduit Entry / Exit

Connecting Emergency Battery and Control (Optional)

A optional battery backup driver in compliance with UL924 and CSA C22.2 no.141 is available. This is 

comprised of a driver/battery and separate bracket. The emergency battery back up can only be utilized on 

recessed mounted units.  Surface mount and cable mounted units are not compatible with the Emergency Bat-

tery back up accessory.

1. Locate bracket to allign with screw 

holes on back of panel.

2. Attach bracket to back of panel.
