4.7 Install Redwood Universal Gateways
Redwood LED Gateway for LED fixtures and Universal Gateway for
fluorescent, CFL, HID, LED, etc. fixtures
Redwood LED Gateways and Universal Gateways are installed next to each fixture. LED Gateways and
are designed to work specifically with Redwood Ready LED fixtures. The Universal Gateways turn on
and off any light fixture type (e.g. fluorescent, CFL, HID, LED, etc.) and provides output signals to
control one or two external dry contact relays.
Each Gateway stores fixture-specific information that assists in installation and commissioning.
IMPORTANT NOTES
• The Redwood LED gateway must be within 6 feet (1.8m) of Redwood Sensor.
• Make sure Gateways are connected to the paired fixture counterpart. For example, an LED
Gateway ships paired with a specific fixture type and must be installed with the matching
fixture type otherwise it may not operate as expected, at all, or even be damaged due to the
incorrect current level.
• Redwood enabled fixtures often come with connection whips that are 24 inches (60cm). If
placing the Gateways more that 12 inches (30cm) from the edge of a fixture, a Redwood
extender cable will be required to be used with the installation.
