Step 3 Mount Controller
You will need the following to mount your controller on the wall:
eight screws
For drywall, tile, or masonry use size 6 to 8 x ¾ inch plastic anchors with size 6 x 1 inch
slotted screws. For wood, use size 6 x 1 inch slotted round head wood screws. These screws
are available at your local hardware store.
12-inch ruler
flathead screwdriver
drill with the drill bit recommended for the type of screws
pencil
Choose a location within five feet of the network interface jacks, where the local telephone
company lines enter the building, and within five feet of a grounded (three-prong) AC outlet
that is not controlled by a switch. The power supply unit will be plugged into this outlet and
the controller connected to the power supply unit. The controller and power supply unit must be
within six inches of each other with the power supply on the left side of the controller.
NOTE: Try to position the controller so that there is an additional two feet of free wall space to
the right to allow for future expansion.
Be sure that the controller is in a well-ventilated area with a temperature range of 40° F to
100° F, and free of excessive dust and moisture. The controller should be at least two feet
from the floor.
A. Mount the Power Supply Unit
Mount the power supply unit on the far left side of the chosen location, making sure it is
within five feet of a grounded AC outlet not controlled by a switch.
Drill two holes 4¼ inches apart and install two mounting screws. Loosen the screws enough to
hang the power supply unit. Mark the location of the two holes on the bottom of the unit and
remove the unit from the wall. Drill two more holes. Reinstall the power supply unit onto the
wall. Insert the two bottom mounting screws, and firmly tighten all four screws.
