Introduction

Mounting

2.1Mounting the Enclosure

The XR2500F must be mounted in a secure,
	3/4" X 1/2" Knockouts
dry location to protect the unit from damage
due to tampering and the elements. The
	Hole for Flush
enclosure can be either flush mounted or
	Mounting
surface mounted and includes a hinged door
with lock. The hole in the enclosure door
allows access to the Fire Command Center
without opening the door. Figure 1 illustrates
the mounting hole locations for the panel
enclosure.

The enclosure dimensions are 32” tall, 14.5” wide, by 4” deep. The lid adds about 0.5” to each side.

2.2Surface Mounting

The enclosure center hole should be attached to a wall stud. Due to the enclosure weight, especially the batteries, it is extremely important to mount the enclosure on the stud. Attach the two holes beside the center hole to sheetrock to secure enclosure. When mounting the enclosure, be sure to leave room for the panel door to swing open. The door lock should be easily accessible.

2.3Flush Mounting

The enclosure can also be flush mounted. Use 1” screws to secure the enclosure between two studs using the two sets of holes on

the sides of the enclosure. Use the top and bottom holes to secure to horizontal studs, if necessary.

2.4 Fire Command Center LCD

Keyboard

A Fire Command Center LCD Keyboard has been factory installed on the XR2500F enclosure. A keyswitch has also been installed and pre-wired to the left of the keyboard. The user can turn the keyswitch to enable the four function keys without opening the enclosure door.

2.5 Metal Backplate

The XR2500F components are pre-wired and installed on a metal backplate. The

backplate can be easily removed to keep components safe during pre-wire activities.

Remove AC and battery power from the XR2500F panel before removing the backplate. Disconnect all battery, transformer, and the Fire Command Center LCD keyboard wires. From the panel, disconnect the AC wires from terminals 1 and 2. Disconnect the battery wires either from the batteries or the panel terminals 3 and 4. Finally, disconnect the keyboard wires from panel terminals 7, 8, 9, and 10.

Remove the screws securing the backplate to the enclosure. Loosen the two top screws that the backplate hangs on. After loosening and removing the screws, lift the backplate up slightly and pull the backplate toward you. When reinstalling the backplate, be sure all connections are secure.

Figure 2 illustrates the backplate and the components. The backplate is shown in light gray.
