The Control Panel is powered by a low voltage plug-in transformer.

Use up to 25 feet of 20 AWG or larger

2-conductor wire to connect the transformer to the Control Panel.

1.Route the power wires from the plug-in transformer to the Control Panel.

2.Connect the wires to the transformer terminals

(do not plug the transformer in until the wiring is complete).

3.Route the power wires through the Control Panel's wiring access slot or through a knockout for conduit wiring.

4.Connect the power wires from the transformer to the Control Panel's main terminal block AC & AC terminals.

5.Plug transformer into an unswitched AC outlet.

6.Secure transformer with screw to prevent unplugging.

BACKUP BATTERY INSTALLATION

A 12-volt backup battery may be installed and is highly recommended.

The backup battery will power the system for up to 6 hours during AC power loss.

The backup battery is automatically charged by the Control Panel when AC power is present.

A low backup battery will cause the keypad's POWER indicator to flash as it is being charged.

1.Position the battery as shown.

2.Connect the black battery lead to the negative battery terminal.

3.Connect the red battery lead to the positive battery terminal.

WARNING: DO NOT REVERSE THE BATTERY LEADS! THE BATTERY FUSE WILL BLOW.
