Installation Instructions for
Central Antenna
Read all instructions completely before installation.
Important Notes
1. Install in accordance with all national and local electrical
codes.
2. Operate system in temperatures between 0 °C
(32 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F).
3. To clean, wipe with a clean damp cloth. Do not use
any chemical cleaning solutions.
4. Do not paint the Central Antenna.
5. All AuroRa controls must be located within 30 feet (9 m)
of an AuroRa Security Interface or Central Antenna. The
Central Antenna must be located within 60 feet (18 m)
of the Security Interface or another Central Antenna.
6. A maximum of one additional Central Antenna may be
added to an AuroRa system.
7. Use only the DC adapter provided by Lutron
(T120-9DC-3-WH) with your Central Antenna. Using an
adapter not rated at the following specifications could
damage the Central Antenna and possibly overheat the
adapter:
• Input: 120 V 60 Hz 6.5 W
• Output: 9 V 300 mA NEC Class 2; IEC PELV
®
8. The range and performance of the AuroRa system is
highly dependant on a variety of complex factors such
as:
• Distance between system components
• Geometry of the home
• Construction of walls separating system
components
• Electrical equipment located near system
components
If you are unsure how to lay out your system, or have any
questions, call the Lutron Technical Support Center at
