Installation

Installing the RC/GS and RC7

The RC/GS and RC7 are designed to be flush mounted through an opening in a wall and secured with four screws.

The RC/GS and RC7 require no connections other than one cable that plugs into the back of the unit. Because you cannot access the cable jack once the unit is mounted, the cable needs to be routed through the wall before securing the remote.

All operating power for the RC/GS and RC7 is provided by the RV Series Inverter/Charger through the cable.

CAUTION

Allow at least 2 ¼ inches (57 mm) of space behind the wall to accommodate the depth of the unit and allow room for the cable to bend.

Materials and tools required

You will need these materials and tools to complete the installation:

level, measuring tape, and pencil

four #6 screws and appropriate screwdriver

jigsaw or small keyhole saw

power drill with 1/16" bit (optional)

RC/GS and RC7 remote cable (telephone-style cable if connecting to a GS-series inverter/charger, data-standard cable if connecting to a non-GS series inverter/charger).
