INSTALLATION
MOUNTING
Control Panel
Choose a mounting location accessible to (a) a continuously-powered AC source, (b) system ground, a steel or copper
ground rod, ideally no further away than 10 feet, and (c) telephone lines (keep telephone wiring away from keypad /
Touchpad wires). Remove appropriate knockouts for cables. Place the control panel at a convenient viewing height
and mark the mounting holes. Attach the enclosure using screws suitable for the mounting surface.
Grounding
Connect the control-panel grounding screw to a metal cold-water pipe or a long steel (or copper) ground rod driven
deeply into the earth. Do not use a gas pipe, plastic pipe or AC ground connections. Use at least 16-gauge wire.
Make the run as short and direct as possible, without any sharp bends in the wire.
F-64PROG Programmer
For complete programming, the F-64PROG can be used. To simplify programming, the connector used to wire the F-
64TPTouchpad to the system buss can also be used with the F-64PROG. To program, first swap the Touchpad for a
F-64PROG programmer, then set the panel jumper from "Normal" to "Configuration". See WI1502 for complete panel
programming information.
For normal use, a maximum of 4 Touchpads (of any type) and up to 3 additional Gemini "K Series" keypads may be
permanently added to the system. Touchpads should be located near each exit/entry door. Before mounting the
Touchpad onto the wall, push the Sliding Label Plate (with label and felt backing affixed and handle facing forward)
down the guides at the rear of the Touchpad until it snaps into place. Once installed, the Sliding Label Plate cannot be
removed without first removing the Touchpad from the wall. Note: (1) The Touchpad fire and panic keys should not be
considered a substitute for a listed manual initiating device, such as a pull box. (2) Each Touchpad includes provisions
for four additional zones. See ADDING EXPANSION ZONES.
If installing the onto a double-gang box, insert mounting screws through the two vertical elongated holes on the left side
of the case and into the box. If the box is visible when viewed from the front, adjust the Touchpad vertically and tighten
the screws. Then, using hardware suitable for the mounting surface, add one or two screws at the right side of the
Touchpad case directly into the wall to ensure a secure installation. Note: Do not overtighten the screws! Uneven
walls may cause the Touchpad case to distort. See WI1499 for more information about installing an F-64TP Touch-
pad.
CAUTION: This equipment generates and uses radio-frequency energy. If not installed using conventional installation
practices for RF devices, it may cause interference to radio and television reception. It has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A computing device pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are
designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If it has been found to cause interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by removing and reapplying AC and battery power to the equipment, the installer
should try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: reorient the receiving antenna;
connect the power transformer to a different outlet so that the control panel and receiver are on different branch
circuits; relocate the control panel with respect to the receiver.
