NOTES:
a) The installation requires that the power line (+12VDC) be attached to a dedicated 2A circuit breaker
or a 2A in-line fuse must be installed between the control module and power source. Locate the
fuse for easy access. Fuse and connector are furnished by the installer.
b) Per RVIA Low Voltage Systems in Conversion and Recreation Vehicles Chapter 3, Section 3-1: For
Carefree LED strip lighting near the awning rail: when the 24AWG power harness is spliced or
connected 10" or less from the harness connector using a heavier gauge wire, the fuse size is
determined by the heavier wire gauge.
1. Route the power cable into the vehicle.
2. Attach the Red wire to +12Vdc.
3. Attach the Black wire to ground.
4. Ensure that the connections are tight, solid and sealed when completed.
5. For awning rail applications:
5.1. Mount the control module and RF sensor on the outside of the vehicle as shown using double
sided tape.
5.2. Connect the module wires to the power harness and LED strip.
NOTE:
The LED connector and receiver connector must be oriented with the arrows on the connectors
lined up. The lights will not work if the connectors are not properly oriented.
