6.
Clip the upper rim of the front case over the upper rim of the surface mount box, then press gently on the front
case until the lower rim slots over the lower rim of the surface mount box, lining up the screw hole at the
bottom.
7.
To complete the installation, use the M3 x 8mm Plastite screw provided with the card reader to secure and
fasten the front case to the surface mount box.
Mounting the Extra Reader with Surface Mount Box
1.
Select where to mount the card reader, ensuring it is mounted a minimum of 1.1m (3.5ft) away from other
wiring, such as ACM power, computer data wiring, telephone wiring and wiring to electric lock devices. Use the
template sticker provided with the card reader as a guide to correctly position the unit.
2.
Hold the surface mount box against the wall and mark the mounting holes.
3.
Mark the intended entry point for the external conduit on the top, bottom or side of the surface mount box.
This must be aligned in the
center
of the box side wall. Drill a hole to accommodate cable entry.
Warning
: Do not drill a hole with a diameter greater than
20mm (0.8")
in the surface mount box. Do not
drill off-center. Drilling too close to the edge of the surface mount box may cause structural damage.
4.
Use appropriate screws (not supplied) to affix the surface mount box to the wall.
Important:
Ensure that you mount the surface mount box in the correct orientation, positioned with the
embossed
arrow
at the
top
, pointing up. The mounting holes are offset from the reader case center, so if the
surface mount box is upside down the edge of the reader will not align with the edge of the mounting box.
5.
Hold the rear case of the card reader against the surface mount box in the correct orientation. Line up the
holes on the rear case with the threaded inserts
closest to the center
of the surface mount box, as shown in the
image below.
