BEFORE INSTALLING, DETERMINE CHEVRON POSITION REQUIREMENTS
1. Turn in four Torx® screws, lift exit door from backplate and carefully remove the LED lamp module by prying up the three retainer clips.
2. Remove the colored lens sheet.
3. Place the exit door face down over wood blocks and punch out the desired chevron(s), taking care to protect the door face finish.
4. Reinstall the colored lens sheet and LED module.
5. Tap the retainer clips back into place.
NOTE: Do not remove protective film from the face or back(insulator) of the LED module. Under normal conditions, the LED module is a lifetime
unit and does not require replacement. If necessary, replacement LED modules are available from the factory.

INSTALLATION
Step 1.
Remove appropriate top, side or back knock out on rough in housing.
Step 2.
Affix bar hanger assembly to housing. Extend bar hangers to fit between joists (Figure 1). Position
fixture temporarily by hammering nail-in tabs into studs. (Figure 2)
Step 3.
Secure bar hangers permanently into studs with appropriate fastener (not included). Hangers
should be level with edge of studs.(Figure 2)
Step 4.
Adjust fixture for suitable wall thickness by loosening hex screws, which attach brackets to housing.
Bring edge of housing level with outside of wall. Tighten hex screws to lock fixture in position.
Step 5.
Extend unswitched 24 hour AC supply of rated voltage to EXIT. Circuit should not be energized at this
time.
Step 6.
Connect wires per schematic and color code as follows: Line 277V - Orange; Line120V - Black; Neutral - White; Cap unused line lead.
Connect ground in accordance with local code.
Step 7.
Thread L1 lead wires from board in housing through center of backplate. Mount
backplate to the housing with four screws (Included).
NOTE: On self-powered exits only, check alignment of test switch with exit door before
securing backplate to housing.
Step 8
(Optional) For applications where excessive abuse may be encountered, drive #10
(recommended) securing hardware (supplied by installer) through the holes at each
corner of the backplate.
Step 9.
Remove the pre-stripped insulation from the LED module leads. Slide the plastic hole
bushing (included) on the leads with the shoulder toward the LED module. Wirenut L1 lead
wires to LED module lead wires making sure to match lead wire colors.
Step 10.
Thread excess lead wires and wire nut connections through the center of the backplate and
push the plastic hole bushing securely into the backplate hole. Wirenut connections must be
in the housing. Secure exit door and vandal shield (if included) to backplate by turning out the
four Torx® screws.
Step 11.

Energize the AC supply. Lamps (LED modules) will illuminate. If not, check L1 lead wire
connection from printed circuit board to LED module. Insure that the test light is on. Activate
the test switch to confirm that the battery system powers the LED lamp modules. The battery
must be charged for a period of 24 hours prior to testing.
