SAFETY AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Please read carefully before installing – Keep these instructions
For use with Landscape lighting systems only
This device is intended for installation in accordance with the National
Electric Code (NEC) and Local code specifications. Failure to adhere to
these codes and instructions may result in serious injury and/or property
damage and will void the warranty.
According to the requirements of the National Electric Code (NEC), direct
burial rated wire is to be buried a minimum of 6” [152mm] beneath the surface
of the ground.
NOTE: If additional Direct Burial wire is needed, contact your local Kichler®
landscape distributor.

The Synchronizer is a control module created to omit on/off timing disparities,
which are routine in a multiple transformer system. The Synchronizer allows
all connected transformers to be controlled simultaneously according to the
desired program and eliminates the need for costly timers, remote controls or
other electronic synchronizing devices.
Configuring several transformers in a series:
1) Turn off power.
2) Installaswitchingdevice,suchasatimer,photocellorX-10devicein
transformer #1. The switching device will control all of the transformers in
the system that are connected using a Synchronizer.
3) PluginoneSynchronizerintoeachadditionaltransformer(#2,#3,#4,etc.)
intended to be controlled.
4) Alow-voltagewire,nosmallerthan#24-2gauge,shouldberunfromany
volt source from transformer #1 to the Synchronizer in transformer #2. A
wireshouldberunfromtransformer#2totransformer#3,awireshould
berunfromtransformer#3totransformer#4,etc.untilalltransformersare
connected.
5) One lead should be connected to the common tap and a second lead
shouldbeconnectedtothe12,13,14,or15Vtapoftransformer#1.Any
available voltage tap and any available common tap, regardless of lamp load,
may be used for the Synchronizer. Connect the wire from the Synchronizer
intransformer#2totheSynchronizerintransformer#3.
Configuring a transformer distant from the other transformers:
1) Awirenosmallerthan#24-2gaugeshouldberunfromanylowvoltage
power source (Junction, fixture or transformer) located after the switching
device on transformer #1 to the Synchronizer on the distant transformer.
(See Fig. 2 for junction wiring suggestions.)
2) To synchronize all transformers, repeat this process.
