The Communication Module ACC-COM-HWR,
ACC-COM-POTS, or the ACC-COM-GSM (E) does not
contain a hardwire connection terminal.
Any controller needing hardwired communications
must be equipped with an ACC-HWIM, in addition to the
ACC-COM-xxx communications module. The HWIM is
installed in the controller cabinet, on the ACC Master
Module (see ACC-HWIM instructions).

1. Turn controller AC power off.
2. Open the facepack door frame and locate the
communications compartment cover on the back right
side of the frame. You may find it easier to complete the
following steps if the facepack door frame is completely
removed from the controller (disconnect facepack door
frame ribbon cable, open and lift up the door frame to
compress top hinge, and tilt out of lower frame).
3. Remove the communications compartment cover (6
screws).
4. Remove the ACC logo cover (two screws).

If the Com module will be used with a RAD3 radio, the
radio ribbon cable should be connected now, before
installing the ACC-COM-xxx into its compartment.
Back of door, COM
and RAD3 installed
• The radio ribbon cable has a rectangular 14-pin
connector on one end for the Com module, and a DB-9
78
cable. This special cable uses 4 color-coded twisted
conductors, shielded with foil, and grounded with an
additional bare wire, in direct burial jacket. The cable is
also ordered separately.
• Plan ahead for routing the hardwired cable. The cable
must be routed from the ACC-HWIM terminal, out
of the enclosure, to any devices to which it will be
connected.
Turn the controller AC power OFF before installing the
Com module. You can turn off the AC power circuit to the
controller, or remove the fuse at the controller transformer
assembly. Pedestal mounted controllers have a power
switch, which can be pressed to the OFF position.
• Note that there are additional steps listed for
installation with RAD3 radio modules.
9-pin connector on the other end for connection to
the radio. The 14-pin connector only plugs one way,
and is keyed to assist proper orientation. Align the
connector and push into place on the top of the Com
module.
• When the Com module is installed in the opening,
make sure that the ribbon cable is visible on the back
of the unit, for connection to the RAD3 radio module.
5. If using the ACC-COM-POTS communications
module, route the RJ-11 compartment via the low
voltage conduit openings. Connect the telephone
cable to the mating receptacle on the bottom of the
ACC-COM-POTS modem, and insert until it clicks
positively into place.
RJ-11 connection
If using the ACC-COM-HWR or ACC-COM-GSM (E)
communications module, no additional steps or
connections need to be made. Continue on with the
following steps.
6. Route the radio antenna cable (if applicable) through
the recessed track next to the radio compartment, and
then through the low voltage conduit openings in the
cabinet, for connection to external antenna.
7. Leave sufficient slack in the telephone and antenna
cables to allow the door to open and close without
crimping.
