I M P O R T A N T !
1. If you purchased the RQX-454 Call Box (Basic or XT model) with the GGT-1
GateGuard
DTMF Decoder,
you must use the RITRON Model EXPO-12 External Power 12VDC Input/Battery Back-Up Kit. The RQX-
454 does not have a connection available that would allow both the Decoder Board and the RQX radio
board to be turned off and draw no current when used only with batteries. The RQX-150 and 450 do have
the necessary connection available, and can be used with batteries only or with the EXPO-12.
2. When using an XT Model Callbox with the RITRON Model EXPO-12, the installation of the liquid tight
strain relief in the EXPO-12 must be reversed due to space limitations in the XT case.
3. When using the GGT-1/1F with the 6-Series Callbox, the 6 D-cell battery holder must be removed and the
unit powered by an external 12 VDC power supply.
Step 1. - CALLBOX DISASSEMBLY
-
Basic
and
XT
Models RQX-150/156/450/456/454
1. For
XT Model
- Remove (4) metal screws with
Torx T-25
Tamper-proof screw bit. Remove front metal plate.
1. For
Basic Model
- Remove message placard from the front of the Callbox.
2. Loosen (4) large plastic screws located in the corners of the front enclosure.
3. Carefully pull front and rear enclosures apart.
4. Disconnect power cable between front and rear enclosures.
Note:
If the GGT-1F is installed in the XT Model OutPost, an additional hole must be drilled in the fiberglass enclosure
for the routing of wires connecting the
GateGuard
decoder/relay board to the contact closure connection on the
device you wish to control. The size and location of that hole will vary with each application and is therefore left up
to the installer/dealer. It is the installer/dealer responsibility to provide any conduit or strain relief hardware
needed.
Step 2. - INSTALLING THE GateGuard DECODER/RELAY BOARD INTO AN OUTPOST CALLBOX
Kit Parts List: (Special Note: If the GateGuard has been factory installed, proceed to Step 3)
- RI-1
GateGuard
DTMF Decoder/Relay Board w/ foam tape.
- Wire harness w/ connector.
- Liquid Tight Strain Relief.
- Instruction Sheet
Installation:
1. Solder the wire harness as shown in FIG.-1.
2. Remove the protective covering from the tape on the Decoder Board.
3.
RQX-150/450/454-XT:
Place the Decoder Board on the inside left wall of the front cover as shown in FIG.-2.
RQX-156/456-XT:
The battery holder must be removed and the Decoder Board placed on the inside of the
back cover.
4. Connect the wire harness to the mating connector on the Decoder Board. A panel mounted liquid tight strain
relief is included in the Kit. The liquid tight strain relief provides sealing as well as strain relief for the wires
connecting the
GateGuard
relay contacts to the contact closure inputs on the device you wish to control.
To install the liquid tight strain relief, you must drill a
0.484" hole
in the center of the bottom wall of the
enclosure that holds the radio (see FIG.-2. for details).
IMPORTANT
Take care to study FIG.-2. For the
correct location of this hole
BEFORE
you drill the hole. Insert the liquid tight strain relief and tighten the
inside and outside nuts to secure it to the enclosure.
IMPORTANT
After routing the wires through
the strain relief connector, firmly tighten the sealing nut. This will insure proper strain relief for the wires
and proper sealing of the enclosure.
5.
BEFORE
you re-assemble the OutPost callbox
TEST
your
GateGuard
system for proper operation.
Note:
If the GGT-1F is installed in the XT Model OutPost, a hole must be drilled into the fiberglass enclosure for the routing of the
relay contact wires. The size and location of that hole will vary with each application and is therefore left up to the installer/
dealer. It is the installer/dealer responsibility to supply any conduit or strain relief hardware.
