The GSM should be mounted close to the generator in a location where it
is easily accessible. Knockouts, 3/4 and 1 inch, are provided for cable routing
and conduit connections. Mount the GSM to a flat, vertical surface, such as
a wall.
Tools Required
screwdrivers (Phillips and flat blade)
wood screws (#10)
anchors (if required)
drill and assorted bits
wire strippers
WARNING: before making any connections to the generator or
inverter, ensure that all inverter power is disconnected and the
generator starter is disabled.
Pre-Installation
Before installing the GSM, read all instructions and cautionary markings
located in this manual. The unit should be mounted in a clean, dry, protected
environment.
Determine the wire route (or conduit runs) to the GSM, generator, inverter
and error indicator (if used).
NOTE: Check for existing electrical, plumbing, or other potential
areas of accidental damage prior to making cuts in structural
surfaces.
Mounting Procedure
Remove the two Phillips screws from the units front panel and remove the
cover.
Open the inverters access panel and locate the GEN connector if
necessary. Refer to the inverter operators manual for the location of the
connector.
Hold the GSM against the surface to be mounted and use the unit as a
template to mark the four hole locations.
NOTE: Six holes are provided in the back panel of the GSM.
Use the two top and two bottom screw holes.
Drill holes for mounting and insert appropriate anchors if necessary.
Use four #10 wood screws to mount the unit to the wall or other vertical
surface.
Install conduit runs if necessary for the generator control wires, error
indicator (if used), and communication cable (between the inverter and
GSM).
