LED Light Rail Installation
Note:
Solera 5000 Series Awning must be installed prior to LED Light Rail installation.
1.
Seal the back of the LED light rail with silicone sealant or tape.
2.
Mount the LED light rail (Fig. 11B) directly below the awning rail (Fig. 11A) and secure to the side of the
unit.
3.
Remove the wire covers in the drive side mount arm.
4.
Route the light wire over the top of the upper brackets on the mount arm and run the light wire down
through the support arm assembly in the same manner as the motor wire (Fig. 11C).
5.
Cut the power and ground wires to the desired length and connect to the unit wiring.
A. Make sure to connect the red wire on the light side to the power wire on the unit.
B. Connect the black wire from the light side to the ground wire from the unit side.
Note:
The LED light rail must be wired through a 3 amp maximum fused circuit.
LED Light Strip
Note:
Awning MUST be extended to access the polycord on the awning fabric and to run the LED power
wire down the drive mount arm.
1.
Starting on the drive side of the awning, slide the LED light strip (non-wired end) (Fig. 12A) onto the
polycord of the awning fabric (Fig. 12B), located close to the awning rail (Fig. 12C) down the width of
the awning fabric to the end, towards the idler side.

Flip the LED light strip drive side (wired end) up to see the back side of the light strip.
3.
Install a #10 - 16 x 3/8” pan head screw (Fig. 13) into the black plastic track of the LED light strip. Make
sure to install the screw at a slight angle in between the LED light strip and the polycord in the awning
fabric, to prevent the LED light strip from sliding off the awning fabric polycord.
