Control System Load Center
The following describes how to mount and connect the outdoor transceiver
to the IntelliTouch or EasyTouch Control System Load Center.
Mounting the Outdoor Transceiver Module
The outdoor transceiver is a two-way radio device with an attached antenna that
communicates with the IntelliTouch or EasyTouch Control System via the
10 ft. four-conductor communication cable.
Outdoor tranceiver mounting location: Choose a convenient location on a flat
vertical surface near the Load Center at a minimum of 5 ft above ground level to
optimize the transmit and receive operating range. For optimum performance
position the Outdoor transceiver with an unobstructed line-of-sight propagation
between the Indoor and Outdoor tranceiver.
1.
Position the back plate against the mounting surface so that the
transceiver is oriented in an upright position with the antenna
pointing upwards. Use a pencil to mark the four mounting points.
Drill four 3/16 in. diameter holes into the mounting surface and insert
the four plastic anchors provided in the kit.
Note: To avoid signal interference, mount the transceiver a
minimum of 10 feet away from the load center, any metal
surface/structure, or air blower located in the immediate area
of the equipment pad.
2.
Position the back plate over the mounting points and secure it with
the four mounting screws provided in the kit.
3.
Carefully position the transceiver circuit board into the mounted back
plate. Route the communication cable wire up through the lower exit
hole at the bottom of the back plate. Carefully pull the communication
cable out the lower hole and position the circuit board in the back
plate.
4.
Proceed to “Connect the wireless transceiver communication
cable to the COM Port on automation control systems circuit
board” on page 6.
5.
Slide the case over the circuit board and antenna into the back plate.
Secure the circuit board in the case using the two retaining screws.
