Wall Mount

The Q Access Keypad housing will mount easily to a wall. The type of
fastener required depends on the material used to construct the wall. If
the keypad is installed on an exterior wall, make sure the contact point
between the housing and the wall is sealed with a silicone sealant rated
for outdoor use to prevent moisture and insects from getting into the
housing.
As with gooseneck stands, the actual location of the wall mounted
keypad may be affected by local building codes. The wiring to the
keypad must be delivered through approved electrical conduit.

Flush Mount

A flush mount adapter is used to mount a Q Access Keypad flat against
the surface of a wall. The adapter can be used in both new and old
construction. See Figure 3 for mounting details for a flush mount adapter.
As with other installation types, the actual placement of the keypad and
the wiring methods may be affected by local building codes. When flush-
mounting outdoors, a gasket is required for the face plate.

System Maintenance

The Q Access Keypad requires a minimal amount of maintenance. When
the recommended maintenance is done as specified, the keypad will
provide the best possible security for your site. As with any electronic or
mechanical device that is used regularly, a small amount of maintenance
done on a regular basis will extend the life of the product.

Periodic Visual Inspection

The Q Access Keypad device should be inspected monthly. When
performing the visual inspection, look for the following items:
Damage caused by contact with vehicles, vandalism, etc.
Damage caused by water, rain, salt spray, etc.
Breaks or cracks in the sealant where the keypad mounts to the
gooseneck stand or wall.

Periodic Cleaning

The Q Access Keypad should be cleaned at least twice a year. More
frequent cleaning may be required in harsh environments.

Cleaning the Housing and Touchpad

Inspect and clean the housing and touchpad at least once a year. To
clean the housing, spray the unit with a mild household cleaner and wipe
with a soft cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, or petroleum-
based products as they can damage the finish on the housing. Do not
immerse the device in water or use a pressure washer. A small, soft
brush (a toothbrush works well) can be used to clean between the keys
on the touchpad.
Remove the Q Access Keypad from the housing to inspect and clean the
inside of the unit. When inspecting the inside of the housing and the
keypad, look for the following items:
Dirt or dust that has collected on the inside of the housing and
the circuit board
Signs of water damage or corrosion caused by prolonged
contact to water
Insects or insect droppings
Wipe out the inside of the housing with a soft cloth to remove any debris
that has collected. Do not use cleaners of any kind, including water, to
clean inside the housing or on the circuit boards. A small can of
compressed air can be used to remove insects and dust from the circuit
board.
