Mounting Options

The cabinet may be either semi-flush or surface mounted. The door
is attached to the cabinet by a piano hinge. The cabinet mounts using
two key slots and two additional 0.250" (6.35 mm) diameter holes
located in the backbox. The key slots are located at the top of the
backbox and the two securing holes at the bottom.
Carefully unpack the system and check for shipping damage. Mount
the cabinet in a clean, dry, vibration-free area where extreme temper-
atures are not encountered. The area should be readily accessible
with sufficient room to easily install and maintain the panel. Locate
the top of the cabinet approximately five feet above the floor with the
hinge mounting on the left. Determine the number of conductors
required for the devices to be installed. Sufficient knockouts are pro-
vided for wiring convenience. Select the appropriate knockout(s)
and pull the required conductors into the box. All wiring should be
in accordance with the National and/or Local codes for fire alarm
systems.

Backbox Mounting

Open the door.
Remove the main PC board assembly by unscrewing the four screws in the corners of the board. Set the
board aside in a safe, clean place. Avoid static discharge which may damage the board.
Mark and predrill holes for the top two keyhole mounting bolts using the dimensions illustrated.
Install two upper fasteners in the wall with the screw heads protruding.
Using the upper 'keyholes', mount the backbox over the two screws.
Mark and drill the lower two holes.
Mount backbox, install remaining fasteners and tighten.
When the location is dry and free of construction dust, reinstall the main PC board.
