Location: Select a convenient location near your device to be
controlled by the CSTAR. For best performance, the CSTAR
should be mounted in "Line-Of-Sight" with your intended trans-
mitting location. Avoid mounting the CSTAR in or on metallic
enclosures. If this is unavoidable, we recommend installing the
antenna extension kit (86LM) for best results. See Remote
Antenna Mounting for proper installation.
Receiver Mounting: Mount Backplate to desired surface using
M3 hardware (not supplied). Hardware used will depend on
mounting application. (Refer to figure 1 for Receiver mounting
hole locations). Wire electrical connections to unit. Snap Unit to
Back Plate.
Direct Antenna Mounting: Install the supplied antenna onto
the CSTAR antenna connector by screwing the connector clock-
wise. Slide the seal boot down to meet the O-Ring, covering
the antenna hardware.

MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR CSTAR
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from electrocution:
• Be sure power is not connected BEFORE installing the receiver.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate
or garage door:
• ALWAYS keep remote controls out of reach of children. NEVER
permit children to operate, or play with remote control transmitters.
• Activate gate of door ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is prop-
erly adjusted, and there are no obstructions to door travel.
• ALWAYS keep gate or garage door in sight until completely closed.
NEVER permit anyone to cross path of moving gate or door.
Remote Antenna Mounting: Use the optional 86LM
antenna extension kit to mount the remote antenna as
high and far from metal as possible for best radio range
(See figure 2). Contact Merlin customer service to order
the model 86LM.
