SECTION V. INSTALLATION

Receiver

The functional range of the wireless remote (from Hand-held Remote to Receiver) is approximately 150 ft. line-of-sight.

The receiver should be mounted at a convenient location (on a flat vertical surface) a minimum of 5 ft. above ground level to optimize the functional range of the hand-held unit. See Figure 1 for major features.

CAUTION

The receiver should be mounted a minimum of 8 to 10 feet away from any air blower, which may be part of the equipment set. The receiver will not operate properly if it is close to a blower that is operating.

1.In order to mount the receiver, it will be necessary to remove the two retaining screws located on the underside of the transceiver, and carefully slide the transceiver case up and off of its back plate.

2.Temporarily position the back plate against its mounting surface so that the receiver is oriented in an upright position (with antenna pointing upwards).

3.The circuit board will need to be temporarily removed. Slide the board up and out of the back plate. Use a pencil to mark the four mounting points, and drill 3/16 in. dia. holes. Insert the four plastic anchors (provided).

4.Feed a UL approved four 22AWG conductor cable through one of the drain holes at the bottom of the receiver enclosure. The preferred wire color scheme is: red, yellow, green, and black. If the drain holes are not used, drill a hole through the bottom of the back plate and seal using a fitting with a few feet of conduit or some other sealant between the case and the cable.

5.Reposition the back plate over the mounting points and secure with the four mounting screws (provided).

6.Strip the leads of the wires about ¼ in. and attach to controller screw terminals

of terminal plug as shown in Figure 2. Carefully slide the circuit board back

Figure 1.

into the back plate and connect the terminal plug.

 

7.Then slide the Receiver case back onto the back plate, and secure using the two retaining screws.

CAUTION

Water damage may occur if the enclosure retaining screws are not secured or a new hole is drilled for the cable and not sealed. Do not seal drain holes.

Load Center

Feed the four conductor cable from the receiver up the low voltage raceway. Open the control panel and fold down to make connections. To the left of the board are the COM PORT connector(s). Strip the leads of the wires about ¼ in. and attach to controller screw terminals of any COM PORT terminal plug following the wiring diagram.

Close control panel, high voltage cover panel, and Load Center door. Turn power to system back on.
