Installation
The Gallagher T30 Keypad Reader can be mounted on:
•
a vertical, rectangular 50 mm x 75 mm (2 in x 3 in) flush box
•
a BS 4662 British Standard square flush box
•
any solid flat surface
The recommended mounting height for the terminal is 1.1 m (3.6 ft) from the floor level to the centre of
the terminal. However this may vary in some countries and you should check local regulations for
variations to this height.
Notes:
•
Consideration should be given to the installation environment when using Bluetooth® enabled
readers, as the read range may be reduced.
•
Installation on metal surfaces, particularly those with a large surface area will reduce read range.
The extent to which the range is reduced will depend upon the type of metal surface. A spacer
(C300318 or C300319) can be used to help mitigate this issue.
•
A black dress plate (C300326) can be used to cover previously installed terminals ensuring a clean
finish for sites handling an upgrade.
•
When mounting on a flush box, the corner screws must be used as well as the flush box screws.
Without corner screws the top of the product is vulnerable to separation from the wall.
1.
Ensure the building cable has been run out through the flush box.
If you are not mounting to a flush box, use the terminal bezel as a guide, to drill all five holes. Drill the
13 mm (1/2 inch) diameter centre hole (this is the centre hole for which the building cable will exit
the mounting surface) and the four corner fixing holes. Ensure the centre hole allows the cable to run
freely out through the mounting surface, so that the terminal facia can clip into the bezel.
Note:
There is no room for the building cable to be squeezed into the terminal bezel. The building
cable must remain within the flush box or wall cavity.
2.
Run the building cable through the terminal bezel.
Note:
If the terminal has already been connected to the building cable, you can pass the facia
through the bezel. Care must be taken to avoid scratching the screen and keypad when passing the
facia through the bezel.
3.
Secure the bezel to the flush box using the two screws provided.
When securing the bezel to a vertical, rectangular flush box, use the 6-32 UNC screws provided.
When securing the bezel to a BS 4662 British Standard square flush box, use the M3.5 screws provided.
