Mounting the FMS-2000M monitor for a retrofit application
Before you begin, make sure you have the following tools:
•
a drywall saw or an oscillating tool with a drywall saw blade
•
a drill and a 7/16 in. drill bit
•
a #2 Phillips head screwdriver
•
a 1/16 in. hex wrench
1. Choose the location where you want to place the FMS-2000M monitor.
2.
Orient the retrofit ring in the location that you want and keep the ring level. The default orientation is portrait, but you can also
choose to use landscape orientation.
3. Mark both screw holes and the corners of the rectangular section.
4. Use a drywall saw or oscillating tool to cut out the entire rectangular section inside the marked opening and drill the screw holes.
5.
Pull the pre-wired 4-conductor interface cable and the RS-485 BACnet MS/TP wires through the retrofit ring.
6.
If the 2-conductor power cable terminates at the monitor, pull the 2-conductor power cable through the retrofit ring.
7.
Peel the backing from the adhesive strips and insert the retrofit ring through the opening. Make sure that the four tabs make contact
with the inside of the opening and then pull the retrofit ring flush against the inside of the wall.
8.
Attach the monitor’s mounting bracket to the retrofit ring with the four included mounting screws. Use a #2 Phillips head screwdriver
to secure both the box and the bracket.
Note:
Do not overtighten the screws because the mounting bracket could warp.
9. Connect the wires to the back of the monitor. Refer to Figure 11 for more information.
10. Align the two slots on the back of the monitor with the tabs on the bracket, then swing
the monitor towards the wall so that the
single tab on the bracket slots into the back of the monitor.
11.
Insert the set screw into the hole on the side or bottom of the monitor’s housing when the monitor sits flush against the wall. Use a
1/16 in. hex wrench to drive the screw into the monitor until it engages with the tab.
After you mount the FMS-2000M monitor, apply power to the monitor. The initial splash screen displays the Triatek logo and the Safety
Halo bezel lights up green to represent the current system status.
Location considerations
Install the FMS-2000M monitor directly outside the monitored space, at the nurses’ station, in the engineering office, or at any other
location that you need. Place the sensors away from any moving air source like ceiling air registers, because this can cause unstable
sensor behavior.
The FMS-2000M monitor includes a pre-wired 10-ft (3.04-m) interface cable to connect the monitor to the sensor network. The monitor
comes pre-configured for portrait mode but you can also install the monitor in landscape mode. After you install the monitor, you can
adjust the interface orientation to landscape mode during the initial setup.
