Plumbing Modular Colorfalls

Connect the Colorfalls together using the 1½" threaded connector (included).

Begin by installing one end of the connector into the side inlet of one Colorfalls.

Align the second Colorfalls and spin it onto the threaded fitting (screwing the two

units together). Before they are completely tightened, install the double sided

gasket (included) at the end of the end of the spillway between the units. This

will create a watertight seal where the spillways meet. Pull the spillways of the

Colorfalls apart while completing the final turn of the Colorfalls body. Once you

have ensured proper alignment, press the spillways of the two units together

(sandwiching the gasket) to ensure it is in contact with both units.

Figure 2

When plumbing multiple Color Changing Colorfalls together, use the back center

inlet on each individual Colorfalls, plugging the side inlets, regardless if you are using

one pump or multiple pumps. This will balance the flow of water going to the falls.

Note: If plumbing two different sized Colorfalls together, a ball valve must be added

on each vertical feed line to adjust the water flow into each unit.

The individual feed

lines to each Colorfalls

should be 1½" PVC. If

using one pump to feed

multiple Colorfalls, the

main feed line should

be 2" or larger. The

main feed line should

be run horizontally

along the back of the

wall with vertical 1½"

feed lines branching

off to each Colorfalls

Installation Requirements

1. The Control Module is weather-resistant with an IP54 rating. Do not submerse it

or expose it to heavy rainfall. It must be mounted off the ground close to the

power source. Failure to do so will void the warranty.

2. Remove the red protective cap from the top of the control module and install

the antenna. Thread the black antenna on until snug, making sure it seals

against the gasket.

3. Install the control box in a well ventilated area to ensure that the module

operates in within its working temperature specified above.

4. Verify that the control module input voltage is 12 volt AC. We recommend that

you use the transformer provided with this unit.

5. Ensure that all cable connections are secure.

6. Do not connect the power before the cord connections are finished.

7. Do not cut or alter the cord between the Colorfalls and the Control Module.

8. The remote control requires three (2) AAA batteries (not included). Do not

touch the face of the remote while installing batteries.

Connecting the Light Bar

The Colorfalls light bar will not operate if plugs are aligned incorrectly. The six

pronged connectors have raised arrows that indicate proper alignment. Follow

the connecting chart below to connect all cables.

Ensure that the unit is not plugged in while connecting.

LED Light Strip

Atlantic's CCCM05 Master Controller (sold separately) enables up to five individual

Color Changing light bars to be synchronized to change colors at the same time

using one remote. In this application, only one Control Module and one remote

are required. Use a Control Module and remote from any Colorfalls and it will

control all light bars when used with the CCCM05 Master Controller. Replace the

transformer from your Colorfalls with the 60 watt transformer from the Master

Controller, and connect the 5-Way splitter supplied with the CCCM05 between the

Control Module and the light bars. See the connecting chart below for details.
