Installing i-on Control Units
Page 29
Step 1: Install cables
Make sure mains cables are routed away from the internal aerials, as shown in Figure 7.
Use only the dedicated cable-entry holes, as shown in Figure 6.

Step 2: Open the control unit
1. Remove the screw located at the top of the lid.
2. Insert a small screwdriver into the screw recess and use it to lever open the lid, as
shown in Figure 8 (the lid is hinged at the bottom).
Note:
When the control unit is firmly fixed to a wall, you should be able to open the lid
without using a lever by releasing the screw and pulling the lid downwards.

Step 3: Mount the control unit
Use minimum 36mm long No8/4mm screws through the three fixing holes and back-
tamper breakout shown in Figure 6.
Important:
Make sure you fit a screw through the back-tamper breakout. This enables the
system to generate a tamper alarm in the event that the control unit is wrenched off the
wall. Do not cut the webs on the breakout.
Do not mount mains
cable behind the aerials
