Check the proposed routing distance of the wire and use longer wire, if necessary. • Flush mounting of the Remote requires appropriate cut-out in the wall/panel. Take necessary precautions to ensure any wiring/plumbing running behind the wall/panel is not damaged.
  • Page 97 SECtION 2 | Installation APPENDIX A Take the other end of remote cable and plug it into the RJ-45 Jack at the back of the EVO-RC (Fig. 2.3). Check the remote display to ensure the Power-up self test initiates. If the self test is successful, secure the EVO-RC to the wall using the four screws. (Fig 2.2) Flush mounting the EVO-RC on the wall with 4pcs, Φ3mm self-tapping screws (flat head).
