5 TTU-7xx INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

Proper installation of the TTU-7xx can have a major impact on the device’s performance. It is
recommended that installers be familiar with the installation process prior to installing the device.

5.1 Plan the Installation

Before drilling any holes, determine the location of each hardware component will be. Be advised that
an installation that violates the

environmental specifications

of the TTU-7xx will void the warranty.

The best way to ensure a trouble-free installation is to consider your options and make some decisions
before you start:



Verify that the TTU-7xx will fit in desired location before drilling any holes.



Accurate data gathering and simulation of how the solution will be used



Ongoing monitoring and maintenance of the device



Accidental or intentional alteration of the equipment

5.2 Activation Magnet

The TTU-7xx is shipped with the activation magnet in place. The activation magnet interrupts power to
the device. After proper installation of the device, remove the activation magnet. Retain the activation
magnet to disable power to the device upon de-installation.
