Installation Procedures
Before installing the system, be sure you read the safety instructions on page ii.
The PARTNER Advanced Communications System can be installed in one of three configurations:
standalone PARTNER ACS processor module.
2-Slot carrier, which can hold up to two modules.
5-Slot carrier, which can hold up to five modules and includes a cover.
The standalone processor module or a carrier and its modules are referred to as the control unit. The control unit
must always be wall-mounted. See the following sections for wall-mounting instructions.
Wall-Mounting a Standalone
PARTNER ACS Processor Module
Install the PARTNER ACS processor module within 5 feet (1.5 meters)
of a properly grounded wall outlet (not controlled by a switch) and the
network interface jacks.
1
A)
Hold the PARTNER ACS processor module
against the wall with the line and extension jacks
facing left.
B)
Leave at least 1 foot (0.3 meters) clearance at
the top, front, and right side, and at least 2 feet
(0.6 meter) at the bottom and left side. This
allows you to access the jacks or expand the
system with another module, and ensures
adequate ventilation.
2
A)
Insert one of the #8 sheet metal screws into the
screw hole at the top of the module.
B)
If you are not installing a second module, insert
the other #8 sheet metal screw into the screw
hole at the bottom of the module. If you are
installing a second module, do not screw in the
bottom screw at this time.
C)
Tighten the screw(s) until the mounting tracks
are snug against the wall. There must be a 3/8"
(1 cm) gap between the wall and the rest of the
module . Do not overtighten the screw(s) the
module will warp and fail to operate.
