If  this  unit  is  already  pre-installed  in  a  Flexibox  (FB-9)  with  either  a  local  or 
remote panel from the Factory then refer to the "Hardware Installation Guide" 
which will be enclosed with the system. If this unit is pre-installed in a Minibox 
(MB-9) also refer to the "Hardware Installation Guide" which will be enclosed 
with the system 
 
If  this  unit  has  been  ordered  separately  we  assume  here  that  you  already 
have  a  Flexibox  system  with  a  Flexipanel  and  that  the  Flexibox  has  at  least 
two spare slots above each other for the PM-2E/PM-4 card. 

 
To install the PM-2E/PM-4 into a flexibox it is desirable (but not necessary) to 
power down the flexi-box. Follow these instructions. 
 
1. 

On the rear of the flexibox are 6 slots for Products. Remove any pair of 
spare  blanking  plates  one  above  another.  There  are  2  M2.5  Screws, 
which require unfastening for each blanking plate. 

2. 

Slide the Product PCB into the spare slots and firmly push it "home". 

3. 

Use the two thumbscrews to fasten the unit in place. Take care that the 
ribbon  cable  for  the  upper  circuit  board  stays  attached  to  the  lower 
board. 

4. 

Now refer to the "GeNETics User Guide". If your system consists of a 
single  Flexibox  with  a  single  Flexipanel  then  refer  to  the  section  titled 
"Flexipanel Auto Set-up". If your system is part of a network with more 
than  one Flexipanel  then  refer  to  the  section  titled  "Flexipanel Manual 
Set-up". This will guide you through acquiring your product as a device 
on the Flexipanel 

 
A diagram of the Video connections for the PM-2E/PM-4 and alarm outputs is 
shown below.
