Installation

iColor Flex LMX gen2 can be used in a wide range of two-dimensional and three-
dimensional configurations, including portable video screens and permanent building-
covering displays. iColor Flex LMX gen2 installations are not constrained by luminaire
size, shape, or architectural space. For example, iColor Flex LMX gen2 strands can
be wrapped horizontally around the exterior of a 45-story highrise at intervals to
transform the façade into a massive three-dimensional video screen that can be viewed
from a distance.
Because of their potential complexity, iColor Flex LMX gen2 installations require upfront
planning for configuring, positioning, and mounting the strands. Planning includes
understanding how to position strands in relation to power/data supplies and the
number of strands each power/data supply can support. Planning for video displays
involves additional considerations, such as how to space iColor Flex LMX gen2 nodes to
achieve the desired pixel pitch, minimum and maximum viewing distances, sampling, and
display resolution.
All installations involve three main steps:
1. Create a lighting design plan and layout grid
2. Mount strands
3. Address, configure, and test strands
Owner/User Responsibilities
It is the responsibility of the contractor, installer, purchaser, owner, and user to
install, maintain, and operate iColor Flex LMX gen2 strands in such a manner as to
comply with all applicable codes, state and local laws, ordinances, and regulations.
Consult with the appropriate electrical inspector to ensure compliance.
Installing in Damp or Wet Locations
When installing in damp or wet locations, seal all strand connections, power/data
supplies, and junction boxes with electronics-grade RTV silicone sealant so that water
or moisture cannot enter or accumulate in wiring compartments, cables, or other
electrical parts. Use suitable outdoor-rated junction boxes when installing in wet
or damp locations. Additionally, use gaskets, clamps, and other parts required for
installation to comply with all applicable local and national codes.
