GROUNDING
1
Grounding the AeGIS steel enclosure is essential. Please comply with all local ordinances and industry standard
procedures to ensure a complete and safe ground. Recommended earth grounds are:
• Use 18-gauge solid wire for grounding.
• Installing a ground steel rod from the AeGIS steel enclosure to the earth ground.
• Installing a solid heavy gauge wire from the AeGIS steel enclosure to a water pipe.
• Connecting the AeGIS steel enclosure to any earth grounded steel metal.
2 TELEPHONE LINE
Always use AeGIS AC/Telephone Surge Protector (ASP1) to protect your investment. One surge protector must be used for
each AeGIS 7000 system.
• Twisted pair category 5 is the minimum requirement if the distance less than 200 feet. Shielded wires are
recommended to avoid radio reception or any other noise problems. If the distance is more than 200 feet,
2-conductors, 18-gauge shielded stranded is recommended. Ground one end of the shielded to earth ground.
See installation instruction if ASP1 Surge Protector is used.
• If a PBX line is used connect the AeGIS to the analog PBX's extension to dial the extensions within the PBX.
Do not connect to a PBX's Digital Port.
NOTE: The AeGIS 7000 Series only works behind the PBX to dial extensions, no pause can be programmed on
the AeGIS 7000 to dial the outside line.

Note: Some door strikes are creating electrical or magnetic noise or spikes and could create problem to the system's
