Postal Lock Connection
1.
A postal lock and contact switch must be obtained from a suitable supplier, as these are not supplied.
The supplied postal lock brackets are compatible with standard USPS Master locks and USPS Mailbox locks
only. Postal lock connection is possible using the supplied postal lock brackets only.
2.
The locking mechanism needs to be mounted onto the appropriate mounting bracket.
3.
The bracket is then mounted on the posts in the bottom of the entry station, in the postal lock cavity.
4.
A hole must be drilled in the front panel of the entry station to accommodate the lock. A pilot hole is marked in
the center of the front panel to help align the hole correctly with the mounted bracket and lock position.
Drilling stainless steel is a specialized process and it is recommended to have this done by a professional.
5.
The postal lock engages the contact switch. The contacts of the switch must be connected to the
orange
Input
1 (postal lock input) and
black
(ground) wires on the 9-PIN expansion cable.
Refer to the
Connections
section (see page 8) for further details on wiring connections.
