INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
POWER TO THE PEOPLE
Planning the installation
Before beginning to install the system, please consider where you would like
to suspend the lighting and the solar panel’s location on or near the roof.
The Solar panel needs to face the equator, so choose the correct side of the
roof.
The solar panel must not be overshadowed by trees or buildings throughout
the day.
Judge the best placement and height to get the light distribution you want for
the room.
See the section on how to switch if you want to study beforehand its light
distribution in the room.
Make sure the total distance from the solar panel to the Hub5 and the lights
will not exceed the length of the cables. The Hub5 should be placed above the
ceiling, at roughly equal distances to all the lights.

Installing the Solar Panel
It is very important that the solar panel be
positioned facing the equator. If necessary, also
adjust the solar panel ‘s tilt angle, so that at 12
o’clock the sun’s rays should fall straight on the solar
panel’s top surface for an optimal sunlight energy
Harvest.
Connecting the Hub5
Under the roof, place the HUB5 somewhere
between the future locations of the LED Lamps.
Insert the Bayonet Plug of the cable from the Solar
Panel, to one of the four ports on the HUB5 except
the USB port. Twist the Bayonet Plug clockwise to
lock it in place. (For 3 Light, connect one HUB5 to
another using the extra cable with Bayonet Plugs).
