Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the power supply is connected and switched on. Verify all wiring connections are secure and correct. Ensure the circuit breaker has not tripped.

Flickering light

Ensure all connections are tight. Check for any loose wiring within the batten or at the junction points. If flickering persists, the unit may be faulty and require replacement.

Units do not link properly

Confirm that the correct linking cable is being used and is securely inserted into both battens. Ensure the battens are properly aligned. Check the linking ports for any debris.
