3.  Installation 

Attach to the wall through two holes in the case.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

4.  Wiring 

Be careful, wiring must be sealed. Incoming air, even slight, would seriously jam the temperature, 
humidity and air quality measures. 
 
When the switchboard is located in the heated volume: caulk arrivals between cables and ducts at the 
switchboard level. 
 
When the switchboard is out of the heated volume, caulk between cables and ducts before entering the 
heated volume. A sealing plug must also be placed between duct and cable reaching the E4000-NG

 

probe to prevent air entry. 
 
When the sealing of the duct is not possible, use a specific sealant without silicone and VOC. 
 
In case of use of electrical box, select an airtight case with sealing membrane from 
which the duct passes through. If the case crosses through the sealing plane 
(plasterboard), seal between the casing and panel with a special sealant without 
silicone and VOC. 
 

5.  Motherboard preparation 

5.1. 

RS485 

The RS485 interface is resident on the motherboard 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

TOP 

BOTTOM 

Take care of case orientation (TOP –BOTTOM) 

ONLY use screws with bent heads 

 

Maximum height of the head 2 mm.

 

 

Make sure to position the hole of cables 

path at the case bottom
