a.

If you wish to mount the receiver, attach 

the two mounting brackets to the sides of 

the unit using three #2-56 screws. Simply 

screw these fasteners into the vent slots 

(see 

Figure 16

).

b.

If you are using the mounting brackets, 

secure the brackets to the mounting 

surface using appropriate 1/4" fasteners 

(not supplied).

NOTE: 

Be sure to leave enough slack in the 

connecting cables (service loop) for easy 
serviceability.

c.

Place the RF converter at least 3 feet away 

from the receiver. If it is too close to the 

receiver, the remote control might not 

operate properly. Also avoid placing the 

RF converter behind a metal surface or in 

an area surrounded by metal.

d.

If desired, mount the RF converter using 

the supplied Velcro fasteners.

e.

Insert two AAA batteries (supplied in the 

kit) in the remote control’s battery 

compartment (see 

Figure 18

).

To avoid overheating, do not block 
the upper vents of the receiver.

IMPORTANT!
