Linear AE-2000 Entry System Mounting, Opening and Closing the Cabinet, Mounting Preparation

Entry System Mounting

The AE-2000 cabinet is designed to be mounted three ways:

•The unit can be mounted directly to a wall or fl at surface.

•The unit can be mounted recessed into the wall.

•The unit can be mounted on a standard gooseneck pedestal. Choose a well lit location near the controlled opening. Wiring access for power, telephone, earth ground, control output must be available to the mounting location. If the optional remote accessories are used, wiring access for these cables must also be available to the mounting location.

Opening and Closing the Cabinet

The AE-2000’s cabinet hinges are spring loaded to help weather seal the cabinet. To open the cabinet, press the cabinet door firmly around each lock while turning each key counterclockwise. To close the cabinet, press the cabinet door firmly around each lock while turning each key clockwise.

Mounting Preparation

Before mounting the system, the main circuit board mounting plate must be removed to provide access for the wiring hole and mounting fasteners.
