Connecting Your LED RGB Rope Light
All LED RGB rope light connectors utilize the same 4-wire configuration and are connected and assembled as described in the instructions below.

Caution:
Never attempt to install accessories while your rope lights are plugged in.

For outdoor applications or where moisture may be present, we recommend applying sealant to all your connections.  

 

Splicing
Splice connectors are used to connect or lengthen two pieces of rope lighting or for repairing a burned out section.
First remove the four screws and disassemble the connector casing.
Line the pins on the connector up with the exposed end of rope light then insert firmly until it stops.

Repeat this process for the other section.

Place the top of the connector casing on the connector and tighten the four screws.

End caps are required to terminate a run of rope lights.
Cover the termination end of the rope light run with an end cap.
Simply press the end cap on the exposed end of rope light until it stops.

 

LED RGB Controllers

First remove the four screws and disassemble the connector casing.
Remove the connector from it's casing.
Line up the pins on the connector with the exposed end of rope light then insert firmly until it stops.
Reassemble the connector casing around the connector.
