RCI 915 Installation

I N S T A L L A T I O N

Mounting Instructions

1. Select a mounting location over the center of the
door or doors to be covered. (The target must walk
directly toward the detector.)
2. The detector may be mounted on the ceiling, wall or
door frame. It may be surface-mounted or mounted
to a keyswitch plate with a size "D" hole.
NOTE: The 915 is not tall enough to completely
cover a single-gang box. Where aesthetics are
important, it is recommended that the detector be
mounted over a standard single-gang plate.
3. The mounting height range is from 7 to 15 feet
above the floor. Ensure all wiring is unpowered
before routing.
4. Remove back cover from the detector by inserting
the head of a small straight-edge screwdriver into
the locking tab and pry off.
NOTE: Once the back cover is removed, the front
cover and detector module will also separate.
5. Route the wiring as necessary through the wiring
entrance (see Fig. 1). For surface wiring, use the
breakout wiring entrance on the front cover (at the
same end as the wire entrance).
6. Loosely mount the back cover to the mounting
surface. Use the supplied mounting screws.
7. Mount the detector module to the back cover. Aim
the detector for the desired coverage.
NOTE: The 915 is not designed as a primary means
of exit for emergency egress applications.
