Installation 

ClassNet Terminals are usually mounted on walls or partitions, near the 
entry door, using standard power point mountings and fittings (usually 
either a plaster wall mounting bracket, or an on-wall mounting block).  
The power point size of the ClassNet Terminal was chosen to allow use 
of a wide range of “off the shelf” mounting 
hardware. 

Installation involves running the cables, cutting a 
hole in the wall if needed, and attaching the 
supplied stainless steel backing plate to the wall 
with standard power point fittings, with the 2 
“prongs” uppermost (if the ClassNet Terminal is 
being mounted vertically).  Then, the cables are 
plugged in, and the ClassNet Terminal is fitted 
onto the backing plate.  The diagram on the right 
shows the metal backing plate of a ClassNet 
Terminal mounted on a plasterboard wall. 

The ClassNet Terminal is supplied with the 
stainless steel backing plate already attached, and 
removing the plate will give you the best 
indication of the installation procedure involved.  Undo the 2 black 
security screws under the ClassNet Terminal, using a 2mm Allen Key.  
Then pull the bottom of the case forward off the bottom of the stainless 
steel plate (which also forms the bottom of the scanning slot), and lift the 
ClassNet Terminal slightly to remove it from the “prongs” at the top of 
the plate. 

Installation is simply the reverse procedure – place the top of the 
ClassNet Terminal over the prongs on the steel plate, holding the bottom 
of the case out from the wall, then swing the bottom back over the lip of 
the steel plate and against the wall, and insert the Allen-headed security 
screws from underneath.  Do not over-tighten the screws, or you may 
have trouble removing them in the future. 

If you are using the ClassNet Terminal’s DataTag Download capability 
you will not need to connect a data cable, but rather connect an ASP 
supplied power adaptor cable and plug pack power supply before you 
attach the Terminal to the wall. 

If you’re installing a cabled network (including a modem download 
setup), you also need to set up the network ID number (covered later in 
this manual), and install the termination jumper in both the Intelligent 
Converter and the last ClassNet Terminal in the network. 

The ClassNet Terminal termination jumper is located on the back of the 
circuit board near the network connectors.  If the slide-on shorting block
