MOUNT THE PANEL

Mount the Backplate to a Wall

Before mounting the 2GIG EDGE Panel in its permanent location, use the guidelines below to choose
the placement. Also ensure you have the recommended tools and equipment. See Recommended
Tools and Equipment, page 10.
1 . Remove the screw from the bottom of the panel. A locking mechanism keeps it from being
removed from the panel.
2 . Insert your fingers into the oval shaped hole, then pull carefully to separate the backplate
from the panel.
3 . Position the backplate at the desired location on the wall using the attached Level to align
the panel.
4 . Insert a pencil into the placement feature on the top of the panel and make a mark hole
locations as needed.
5 . Cut a slot in the dry wall for the AC power cord and other electrical wiring (if needed).
6 . Route the barrel connector for the power supply or 2-conductor wire (if connecting power to
the panel's terminal block) through the wiring cutout.
7 . If you are installing any additional wiring, route those wires through the cutout.
WARNING!! To avoid serious injury or death while wiring the terminal block connections,
do NOT connect the panel's power supply to a power source. Always ensure that you
disconnect the backup battery before servicing the panel's internal components.
