Installation 

 

 

 

Prior to mounting the Beacon Master Station, it should be decided if the field wiring is to be run on the

surface or to be concealed. There are 14 knockouts on the top and 2 slotted entries with a dedicated

mains supply entry at the rear. If a knockout is removed by mistake, fill the hole with a good quality

cable gland. 

 

Unused knockouts must be left unopened to comply with the Low Voltage Directive.  Accidentally 

knocked out holes should be blanked off.  

The Beacon Master Station weighs 6Kg with batteries, so care should be taken to securely mount the Station

on stud walling.
