Preparing the
Mounting Surface
Now that you’ve paired the controller, time to per-
manently mount your tape run.
Dust will hamper
adhesion. Clean all surfaces thoroughly.
Fig. 6.
Wear protection, do not breathe in fumes.
Peel back adhesive 1/2” to expose back of tape. If
you are connecting other lengths of tape, now is
the time to use a connector. Cut only at cut lines
and either splice together using our
LTRS-TUN-SP splice connector, or use any one of
our tape to tape connectors, available from 3” to
60”.
Push end of tape into connector, making
sure that contacts seat securely against contacts
in the connector.

Using Mounting Channels
We offer a complete line of architectural quality
aluminum extruded mounting channels and lenses
in both 4’ and 8’ lengths. In measuring out a
channel for your installation, take note that not all
channels accept connectors within them. Best to
make your connections outside of the channel.
Cut channel using a metal blade in a circular saw or
with a hacksaw. Make sure you observe all proper
safety precautions and wear protective goggles.
If using a hacksaw, insure that channel is tightly
clamped to work bench.

Mount channels using counter sunk screws (by oth-
ers). Sink screw every 12” along length of channel.
Fig. 9.
Lay tape in using adhesive backing to adhere tape
to channel. Press firmly along length of tape. Do
not apply a roller to tape as this may damage
diodes.

Snap lens into channel, working from one end to
the other. Lens will seat into channel with an
audible ‘pop’ sound.
