Step 3:
Mount the Flex IO
If you are wiring any devices into the screw terminals, it is
recommended to do so before mounting the Flex IO. See the
Alarm.com Knowledge Base for more information.
The Flex IO can be mounted using either screws or zip ties.
Using screws
• Screw mounting holes are located in the battery
compartment. To avoid damaging the batteries, it is
recommended to remove them before installing screws.
• Use two #8 Phillips screws to puncture the gasket
and securely mount the Flex IO.
• Take care not to over-torque the screws.
Power tools should be avoided. If pilot holes are necessary,
a drill bit size of 5/64'' is recommended.
