2.4 Mounting the ME-ARC Remote

The ME-ARC can either be fl ush mounted (through an opening in the wall),
or surface mounted using the provided bezel. Find a location that is clean,
dry and protected. Allow room to access the remote's SELECT knob and to
view the LEDs/display.
CAUTION: Ensure that no AC power is connected to the inverter,
and then according the your inverter owner's manual correctly con-
nect the inverter to the batteries.
CAUTION: Always check for hidden electrical wires, pipes and cables
BEFORE drilling, cutting, or screwing into walls or cabinets.

2.4.1 Flush Mount Installation Procedure

To fl ush mount, the wall opening must have at least a 2" (5 cm) depth to
allow room for the remote and the cable.
1. Cut an opening in the wall (Figure 2-5). Ensure there are no openings
around the display and enough material for the screws to secure the unit.
2. Drill four pilot holes for the #8-32 screws that will attach the remote to
the wall (refer to Figure 2-3 for hole locations and dimensions).
3. Route one end of the cable through the wall cutout to the inverter/charger,
and then plug it into the RJ11 REMOTE port (blue label) on the inverter/
charger—inverter has DC power, but is OFF. See Figure 2-2.
4. Take the other end of the remote cable and while plugging it into the
back of the ME-ARC, view the remote's display to ensure the Power-up
Self Test initiates (see Section 2.5).
5. If the self test is successful, secure the ME-ARC to the wall using four of
the supplied Phillips screws. If the self test is unsuccessful, refer to the
Troubleshooting section.
