SELECTING POWER SUPPL
LED-DR DRIVERS FOR TRULUX® CONTROLLERS
Calculate the load and make sure to select a driver that can handle the total load. Use the chart below to select the driver.
HTMR Series tape light is not compatible with LP-DR series drivers. Recommended operation is with LED-DR series drivers only.
* For run lengths that exceed the reel length (65.6 feet), use up to 26.8 feet from a second HTMR reel, locate the 150W driver in a central location and do not
exceed 65.6 feet in any single run.
CONNECTING AND MOUNTING TRULUX SECTIONS:
This product is designed to be mounted to a smooth, clean, non-moving surface.
1. Review any marks made indicating placement of connectors prior to continuing. For best adhesion to surface, once Trulux
backing is removed, it should be placed on mounting surface and not be repositioned or removed and re-used.
2. Peel the protective backing from the tape light and press the first piece of Trulux into place, working from the “L”, “T”, or “X”
connection,where applicable.
3. For extending any piece, connect a clip connector or jumper wire to the preceding piece by sliding the tape light end completely
into the connector, ensuring the tape light is underneath the metal conductors, and closing the clip securely over the tape light
until the connector halves ‘snap’ together. (See Figure 2). Compatible clip connectors include TL-2SPL, TL-2L, TL-2T, and TL-2X.
Jumpers (TL-2JUMP-.5, TL-2JUMP-1, and TL-2JUMP-2) are also available, sold separately. The clip and jumper connectors are
shipped open, ready to use.
4. Attach the next Trulux section to the clip connector/jumper in a similar manner.
5. For best results, allow 24 hours for the adhesive to “cure” to the mounting surface before using lights.
6. Mounting clips with screws are also available (TL-CLIPS-15, sold separately) to secure tape light in place.
7. See page 3 for power supply and receiver connection.
