INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

INSTALLATION OF THE UFS 940SW

SELECTION OF A SUITABLE INSTALLATION LOCATION

Note: When choosing the installation location, bear in mind that the rear of the unit should always be accessible. The UFS 940sw is equipped with a power saving circuit and a separate infrared transmitter, which means that the unit does not need to be placed where it is visible. You can therefore fit the UFS 940sw out of sight in any location, e.g. on cupboard walls, side walls or the base of storage compartments.

The four screw sockets provided (see diagram on the next page) allow you to install the receiver not only resting on a shelf but also to fix it there or in other positions.

In addition, the following points should be taken into account:

The wall thickness at the installation location must be at least 15 mm, as otherwise the screws will break through on the other side or damage the surface

Ensure that the cupboard or storage compartment in which the unit is to be housed is adequately ventilated to prevent a build up of heat. Carpet-covered walls are unsuitable for installation

Take care when tightening the screws not to damage any cables etc. behind or in the wall

The receiver is designed exclusively for installation in dry, interior locations. The installation location must be protected against moisture

The cable lengths must be taken into account when choosing the installation location

The connecting cables must be provided with strain reliefs

Ventilation:

The heat generated within the receiver can be dissipated from the following sides of the casing: bottom, left, right and top. When selecting the installation location, make sure that these sides are not obstructed or covered. If the unit is operated continuously with insufficient ventilation, this can negatively affect the length of its working life!

Maintain a clearance of at least 20 cm above or below the unit, 2 cm to either side and 5 cm behind it, to allow unobstructed dissipation of the heat generated.

The unit monitors its temperature in operation. Premature failure of the unit due to continuous operation at temperatures higher than the recommended operating temperature as a result of insufficient ventilation does not constitute grounds for a claim under warranty/guarantee.
