Installation
The cabinet may be either semi-flush or surface mounted. The cabinet mounts using two
key slots and two 0.250” (6.35 mm) diameter holes located in the backbox. The key slots
are located at the top of the backbox and the two securing holes at the bottom.
Carefully unpack the system and check for shipping damage. Mount the cabinet in a
clean, dry, vibration-free area where extreme temperatures are not encountered. The area
should be readily accessible with sufficient room to easily install and maintain the panel.
Locate the top of the cabinet approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) above the floor with the hinge
mounting on the left. Determine the number of conductors required for the devices to be
installed. Sufficient knockouts are provided for wiring convenience. Select the
appropriate knockout(s) and pull the conductors into the box. All wiring should be in
accordance with the National and/or Local codes for fire alarm systems.
2.1 Mounting
The circuit board contains static-sensitive components. Always ground yourself with a
proper wrist strap before handling any boards so that static charges are removed from the
body. Use static suppressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies.
✓ Mark and predrill holes in the wall for the top two keyhole mounting bolts using
the dimensions illustrated in Figure 2.2 on page 25
✓ Install two upper fasteners in the wall with the screw heads protruding
✓ Using upper ‘keyholes,’ place backbox over the two screws, level and secure
✓ Mark and drill the lower two holes
✓ Mount backbox, install remaining fasteners and tighten
✓ Screw supplied standoffs onto mounting studs in locations indicated below
✓ When the location is dry and free of construction dust, install the main circuit
board by aligning the 10 mounting holes in the circuit board with the 10
mounting standoffs in the backbox as illustrated below
✓ Secure the circuit board to the standoffs with the supplied screws and male/
female standoff as indicated in following figure
