1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
The Traxon Monochrome Tube is an IP66-rated slim LED tube for any wall or facade
accent-lighting. Available in 500mm, 995mm, and 1490mm lengths, the simple but robust
construction, allows up to 24, 12, or 8 Tubes (12m) to be daisy chained using a single power
supply.
Monochrome Tube distinguishes façades, walls, and borders with a concentrated, even
radiance due to its front diffuser. Its compact, low-profile design is available in three different
lengths and combined with project-specific mounting options the Monochrome Tube is able
to meet rigorous application demands. For installations of varying size, the Monochrome Tube
offers flexibility and lends vitality to any project.
The Monochrome Tube has an aluminium extrusion housing with a PC front diffuser and is
suitable for outdoor environments.
Features:
• Available lengths: 500mm, 995mm and 1490mm
• Simple plug’n’play connection system
• Daisy Chain System
• Sleek and slim profile
• Outdoor rating (IP66)
• Optional dimming via DMX512 through DMX2PWM dimmer

2.1 Points To Consider
Plan your installation before mounting the Tube. The following should be considered
for a successful installation.
• Weather conditions and ambient temperature of installation site.
• Appropriate cable lengths. Please consult your local Traxon™ office or authorized
agent for necessary aid.
• The number of Monochrome Tubes and appropriate LED Engines.
• Any optional DMX2PWM Dimmers or DMX512 controllers to be used with the
Monochrome Tubes.
• Distance between each Tube for thermal expansion and maintaining pixel pitch.
• There are two mounting methods to consider, plan mounting distances
accordingly for whichever method is required.
2.1.1 Installation Checklist
1. Prepare cables and all necessary accessories.
2. Perform functional check of Monochrome Tubes.
3. Ensure all pre-installation checks laid out below have been followed.
4. Mount the Monochrome Tubes on-site. If the installation is to be left uncompleted
overnight, place all non-connected LED Engines and Monochrome Tubes in an indoor
environment.
Ensure all the Interconnection Cables, Monochrome Tubes and LED Engines
are initially stored in a dry area to guarantee the complete sealing of the
system from water before installation.

2.2.2 Mounting Bracket (Optional)
If the optional Mounting Bracket method of installation is used, it is recommended to fix it
to the installation surface before the Monochrome Tube is secured to the bracket. Mounting
Bracket is ordered separately (TU.AC.0100400).

2.2.3 Installation Sequence
1. Plan for any possible bending of cables (see above).
2. Measure the correct distances for Mounting Brackets.
3. Connect Monochrome Tubes with LED Engines in the daisy-chain manner outlined in the
Wiring Diagram (P. 14) to form large installations.
4. Perform functional check on all Monochrome Tubes and inspect cables and Mounting
Bracket for any damage. Check for any abnormalities with the control signal.
5. Report any functional defect found to your nearest Traxon Technologies office. DO NOT
attempt to install Monochrome Tubes with functional defects on-site.

3. Safety And Operation
1. CAUTION - Unplug the power supply from the mains power before connecting any
cables as this can damage the products.
2. CAUTION - Avoid looking directly into the LED light source at close range for your own
safety.
3. Persons installing this products should make sure:
1. The installation complies with all applicable codes, state and local laws,
ordinances, standards and safety regulations.
2. The installation environment is carefully studied and suitable surge protection
measure(s) is taken.
3. He or she is qualified for the handling of electrical equipment.
4. Do not attempt to install or use the product until installation instructions and safety labels
are fully understood. This product is designed for indoor and outdoor use.
5. Ensure product operates within the specified temperature range. (Refer to 6. TECHNICAL
SPECIFICATION for more details.)
6. Do not attempt to open the product. Not user serviceable.
7. Do not use the product if any part of it, or the power cables are damaged.

5. Care and Maintenance
Traxon™ products are of superior design and quality and should be treated with care. The
recommendations below will help fulfill anY warranty obligations and gain good use and
longevity from the products.
• Do not attempt or use the product(s) until you read and understand the installation
instructions. Failure to adhere to these instructions could result in serious injury or property
damage.
• Do not use product(s) if cables are damaged.
• Do not connect cables and connectors when wet or in wet area. Moisture on bare
connectors can cause electric shock and damage to product(s).
• Do not use product(s) in extreme heat environment. Ensure there is sufficient airflow and
use cool air circulation if required.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake product(s). Rough handling can damage the electronics and
void the warranty.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean products.
Wipe with a damp cloth on housings and a dry cloth on electronics to remove dirt or dust.
• Do not attempt to service or repair the product(s) unless done by an authorized service
personnel. Contact your local Traxon office or distributor for details.
• If the product is not working as specified, please contact your nearest authorized service
center or Traxon Technologies office for assistance.

As with all electronic devices, LED output degrades over time - a term called lumen
depreciation. This also explains why it is nearly impossible to expect photometric
performances of two LED products with different service life spans to be the same. The
rate of LED degradation is a complex function of many factors such as operating efficiency,
duration of continuous operation, and operating conditions (e.g. ambient temperature).
Because LEDs are semiconductor devices, their performances are subject to inherent
variability commonly found in semiconductor industry. To improve consistency in performance
across the same product, LED manufacturers “sort” LEDs into bins according to different
preset parameters, such as forward driving voltage, illumination, etc. Whereas binning is a
sorting function, it is not a correction process. Inherent variability in the manufacturing process
always results in different binning distributions according to different production lots. Traxon
uses automatically binned LEDs on its products, thereby minimizing output variations within
the model range.
