Installation Precautions

For safe switch installation and operation, it is recommended to:

  • Visually inspect the DC power jack and make sure that it is fully secured to the power adapter.
  • Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation around the switch.
  • Install the switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic sources, vibration, dust, and direct sunlight.
  • Not place heavy objects on the switch.

Grounding the Switch

The following steps explain the procedure for connecting the switch to a protective ground:

  1. Verify that the system is powered off.
  2. Remove the ground screw and place the #8 terminal lug ring at one end of the ground cable on top of the ground screw opening.
  3. Insert the ground screw back into the ground screw opening.
  4. Using a screwdriver, tighten the ground screw to secure the ground cable to the switch.
  5. Attach the terminal lug ring at the other end of the grounding cable to an appropriate grounding source.
  6. Verify that the connections from the ground connector on the switch to the grounding source are securely attached.

Attaching the Rubber Pads

The DGS-1008P comes with a strip with 4 adhesive rubber pads to place on the bottom of the device to prevent the switch from damaging the surface it is placed on. To attach the rubber pads, simply remove the rubber pads from the adhesive strip and stick one pad on each corner on the bottom panel of the switch.

  2. Drive the two screws included in this package into the placed nylon anchors.
  3. Hook the mounting keyholes on the back of the switch onto the screws to secure the device to the wall.

Soft surface wall (e.g. wood, drywall)

  1. Drive the two screws included in this package into the soft surface wall where you want to mount the DGS-1008P so that they align with the keyholes on the back of the switch.
  2. Hook the mounting keyholes on the back of the switch onto the screws to secure the device to the wall.
