KLSTR.nano Installation

OEM integration

For fixture manufacturers integrating the KLSTR.nano into their products:

Mechanical mounting

1. Position the KLSTR.nano PCB inside the fixture housing using the four M2.5 mounting holes.
2. Use M2.5 standoffs (minimum 3mm height) to provide clearance between the module and the fixture’s PCB or housing.
3. Ensure adequate airflow around the module — the KLSTR.nano operates without a heatsink but needs convective cooling.
4. Route the Ethernet cable to the fixture’s external network connector.

Electrical connections

Power (JST-PH 4-pin connector):

DMX output (3-pin header, 2.54mm pitch):

Caution

The KLSTR.nano does not include a DMX line driver. For long cable runs (> 2m) or multi-fixture daisy chains, add an RS-485 line driver between the KLSTR.nano and the DMX bus.

Retrofit installation

For end-users installing a KLSTR.nano retrofit kit:

1. Power off and disconnect the fixture from mains power.
2. Open the fixture housing per the manufacturer’s service instructions.
3. Mount the KLSTR.nano using the adhesive standoffs included in the retrofit kit.
4. Connect the DMX adapter harness between the KLSTR.nano header and the fixture’s existing DMX input connector.
5. Connect the power adapter cable to an appropriate power tap inside the fixture.
6. Route the Ethernet cable through the provided cable gland and out of the fixture.
7. Close the fixture housing and restore power.

Danger

Always disconnect mains power before opening a fixture. Work inside lighting fixtures should only be performed by qualified personnel.

Verification

After installation, the KLSTR.nano status LED indicates:

• Amber: Booting
• Blue: Network link established
• Green: Operating normally
• Red blink: Fault (see Troubleshooting)

Open KLSTR.ctrl to verify the device appears in discovery. The KLSTR.nano is identified with a “nano” badge.
