The cable access symbol indicates the direction of the cable access to the detector
when the detector is secured to the mounting plate. In the orientation shown here,
cable access to the detector is at the top of the installation.
Use the GM7xx drill template to mark the location of the required drill holes.

1. Use the GM7xx drill template to mark the correct location of the fixing holes (A), and drill two
3.2mm Ø holes at least 6mm deep.
2. Tap each hole to M4.
3. Remove the drill template from the protected surface before fixing the GMXP0.

4. Secure the GMXP0 through the holes (A) using 2 x M4 countersunk screws (provided with
GMXP0).
5. Mount the detector on the GMXP0 using the mounting holes provided (B).
6. Mount the GMXS1 internal test transmitter on the designated location on the GMXP0 (C) and
connect to the detector.

Glue Fixing
If weld or screw fixing to the steel surface is not an option, the GMXP0 mounting plate can be secured
by glue fixing to a clean area of the protected surface. For improved adhesion results the surface of
the protected surface should be scratched with a form of abrasive material or tool. The recommended
option for installation is to drill or weld the GMXP0 to the protected surface and to follow the installa-
tion guides throughout this document and the associated installation sheets.
