INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT NOTICE: VERIFY CORRECT LUMINAIRE WAS RECEIVED WITH
CORRECT COLOR TEMPERATURE, VOLTAGE, AND WATTAGE BEFORE CUTTING OR
INSTALLING. CALI WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE IF INCORRECT LUMINAIRE IS INSTALLED.
READ ENTIRE GUIDE BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION
• Electric Hammer Drills (optional)
• 14.4 to 28 Volt Cordless Drills
• Phillips Bits - Sufficient Quantity
• Utility Knife
• Electrical Cords
• Marker
• Wire Strippers
• Long Nose Pliers
• Drill Bits - Concrete or Wood
• Electrical Three Ways
• Safety Glasses
• Measuring Tapes

ELECTRICAL
INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
INSTALLATION TOOL REQUIRED
• ALS500T-RMW requires a remote driver. The driver may be mounted on
top of the luminaire or in a remote location.
• Drivers are 120V - 277V (UNV) Input Voltage and 24VDC Output Voltage
• To calculate driver size, determine Watts per Foot.
Example: 4W per Foot
• Determine Length in Feet.
Example: 20’
• To calculate Load, Multiply Watts per Foot x Length in Feet
Example: 4W x 20’= 80W. The Load of the driver is 80 Watts.
• Maximum load for a Class 2 low voltage luminaire is 96 Watts

A
Standard Length: Luminaire runs are constructed in 8’ segments.
B
Custom Length: Any required length that is not 8’. Typically the last
segment of a run.
C
End Cap: Used to terminate a run.
D
Mitered Corner: Standard 90° Mitered Corner. Custom angles available
upon request.
E
Jumper Cable: Used to connect two luminaires with a gap between.
F
Driver: The driver is typically mounted on top of the first luminaire
segment of a run. The driver may also be mounted elsewhere. Each run
typically has its own driver.
G
Continuous Connection: Each luminaire segment is built with quick
disconnects to easily connect to the next segment in line.
H
Circuits: Example U-Shaped run exceeds Max Run lengths and is split
into two circuits, each with their own driver. Max Run lengths vary by light
source. See light source specifications for details.

Do not install ceiling tiles until after installation of luminaires is complete.
Installation area must have at least 10” of overhead space.
1
Determine number of Hanging Brackets required.
Note: Refer to the diagrams on page 10 as a guide.
5
If applicable, assemble Hanging Bracket Arms. Insert Hex Head Bolts through
slots on Hanging Bracket Arms and secure with washers and hex nuts.
6
Mark locations where each Rail Bracket will be installed along reference line.
Align the bottom of the Rail Bracket with the reference line and pre-drill using
proper drill bit for surface and screw size. Each rail must be mounted with a
minimum of two screws. Drill additional holes in Rail Brackets if necessary.
Note: Use 8/32 x 2” Countersink Screw (By others)
7
If applicable, install end caps to ends of runs.
9
Install T-Bar ceiling grid. Assemble the grid so there is a continuous edge
around grid for the Ceiling Trim to rest on. Hang the center of the T-Bar 7-5/16”
away from wall stud.
2
Hang or cut drywall along installation area so it is flush with the ceiling line.
Measure exactly 4” above ceiling line and mark each wall stud in the installation
area. Use a laser level to ensure accurate relation to ceiling line, then draw a
reference line connecting each mark along the wall studs.
Note: Drywallers must hang drywall to the specifications. Only cut if necessary.
3
Mark locations along Wall Trim extrusion where it will be mounted to wall studs,
then drill holes as needed and mount to wall studs.
Note: Mount Wall Trim extrusion using at least 1 screw per 2’, rounded up.
