2.2. The Main Unit
Mount the Watchguard main unit at the front or front side of the building. The
mounting position should be under an eave or out of direct contact with rain or
other water sources. The position should allow line of sight viewing from both
the street (for visual deterrence) and from your main point of entry (for visual
confirmation of arming/disarming).
Use the wall plugs and screws provided if suitable for your particular building
construction.

diameter, 25mm minimum in
depth) into the chosen wall.

through the wall and up into the
ceiling.

in.

from the top 2 screws.
