provided (see page 4 for printed template).
As shown in Fig. 2, the rear housing includes two mount-
ing holes for single-gang (A) and four mounting holes for
double-gang (B) electrical utility boxes, as well as four all-
purpose holes (C) for mounting to drywall or other surfac-
es (use minimum #6 screws suitable for the surface).
"EXPANDER GROUP" DIALS
Inside the Expander are 2 rotary dials (see Fig. 3). These
dials are used to set the "Expander Group". All version 2
Gateways include an identical set of dials. Therefore, the
dial values set on your Gateway MUST then match the dial
values set on
IMPORTANT: Each Gateway in your system MUST be
set to a different "Expander Group" value along with its asso-
ciated Expanders. The "Expander Group" dial setting deter-
mines which Expanders are associated with which Gateway,
thus preventing Gateways from discovering unintended Ex-
panders.
