General installation and connection guidelines
Where to install the control panel
Make sure the installation location is free from construction dust and debris, and
immune to extreme temperature ranges and humidity (see “Technical specifications”
on page 32 for more information on the operating temperature and relative humidity
specifications).
Allow for enough floor and wall space so the panel can be installed and serviced
without any obstructions. The cabinet should be mounted so that the user interface is
at eye level.
