MobileTouch Wireless Controller

The MobileTouch wireless controller provides wireless control of the IntelliTouch system. The
MobileTouch controller kit consists of:
Hand-held wireless LCD control panel
Cradle AC adapter for recharging the unit
Transceiver antenna module

Mounting and Connecting the MobileTouch Transceiver Module

The Transceiver module is a two-way radio device with an attached antenna that communicates to
and from the IntelliTouch system via the MobileTouch hand-held wireless controller. Mount the
Transceiver module at a convenience location (on a flat vertical surface) near the Load Center or
Power Center, at a minimum of 5 ft. above ground level to optimize the functional operating range of
the MobileTouch wireless control panel.
CAUTION To avoid signal interference, mount the Transceiver module antenna a minimum of
10 ft. away from the Load Center or Power Center, any metal surface/structure, or air blower located
in the immediate area of the equipment pad.
The MobileTouch wireless controller has an operating range of up to 300 ft. from the MobileTouch
transceiver antenna (line of sight) which is typically located near the IntelliTouch load center. The
optimum wireless transmit and receive range may be affected by physical obstructions, (especially
those containing metal), weather conditions, and geographical features.
To mount the Transceiver module:
1.
CAUTION - Switch the main power off at the Load Center or Power Center.
2. Remove the two retaining screws located on the underside of the transceiver. Carefully slide
the transceiver case up and off the Transceiver back plate.
3. Remove the Transceiver circuit board. Slide the circuit board up and out of the back plate.
4. Position the back plate against the mounting surface so that the transceiver is oriented in an
upright position (with the antenna pointing upwards). Use a pencil to mark the four mounting
points. Drill four 3/16 in. diameter holes into the mounting surface and insert the four plastic
anchors (provided in the Personality Kit).
5. Feed a UL approved four 22 AWG conductor cable through the knockout hole at the bottom
of the enclosure. Do not run wire through the drain holes. If the knockout hole is not being
used to run wire through, drill a hole through the bottom of the back plate and seal it using a
fitting with a few feet of conduit or some other sealant between the case and the cable.
6. Position the back plate over the mounting points and secure it with the four mounting screws
(provided in the Personality Kit).
7. Carefully slide the Transceiver circuit board back into the back plate.
8. Strip back the wires ¼ inch. The recommended wire color scheme is red, yellow, green, and
black. Insert the wires into the screw terminals (provided in the Personality Kit). Connect the
screw terminal connector onto the circuit board. For wiring details, see page 20.
9. Slide the Transceiver circuit board case into the back plate. Secure the case using the two
retaining screws.
10. Proceed with Connecting the Transceiver Module Cable to the Personality Board, on
page 28.
