Note:
If the “Rough-in Kit” for the 900E Series has been
preinstalled, proceed to step 6 below.
1. Cut a 3" x 15" opening in the ceiling or wall. Ensure that
the opening is less than the trimplate dimensions of
3 7/8” x 15 7/8”.
2. Remove the trim plate from the recessed housing by
loosening the (2) flathead screws on either end of the
trim plate and set aside.
3. Remove the homeplate assembly from the recessed
housing by loosening the (2) 6-32 screws and set aside
(Fig. 1).
4. Connect the battery to the PCB. Red goes to positive (+)
and black goes to negative (-).
5. For ceiling mounting, first punch out the knockout on top
of the recessed housing, then insert the plastic grommet
into the hole. Install the provided J-box on top of the
recessed housing by inserting the tab of the J-box into
the bridge lance and securing with a 6-32 x 1/4” screw
(provided). Attach the hanger bars to the sides of the
recessed housing using 6-32 screws and wing nuts.
6. Install the recessed assembly:
a. If ceiling mounting, position the recessed assembly
between joists, making sure the hanger bars are
positioned correctly. Use the adjusting slots to guide
the hanger bars. The bottom of the recessed housing
should be level with the bottom of the joist. Secure by
hammering in the nail-in tabs. For T-bar installation,
hang the ends of the hanger bars over the vertical
part of the T-bar, as shown (Fig. 2).
b. If wall mounting, position the recessed assembly
inside the wall. Secure the recessed assembly using
L-brackets, screws, and anchors (not provided)
(Fig. 3).
7. Route the wires through the knockout hole and make
electrical connections; see
Electrical Connections
section.
8. Secure the homeplate assembly within the recessed
housing using the (2) 6-32 screws from before.
