DIAGRAM
Mount the Enclosure
The enclosure mounts on the wall. Mount the enclosure right-side up (the
Mircom logo on the door is in the lower right corner).
You need:
4 fasteners appropriate for the wall that you are mounting the enclosure on.
- Find a suitable location for the enclosure. You can mount the enclosure using the keyholes on the back, or the knockouts on the side, or both.
- Trace an opening in the wall for the enclosure with one side aligned with a wall stud.
- Cut an opening in the wall 3/32” (3 mm) larger than the tracing, ensuring that one side is aligned with the wall stud or supporting structure.
- Insert the enclosure into the wall cutout, and using the side of the enclosure as a template mark the hole mounting locations (either keyholes or knockouts or both).
- If you are using the keyholes, remove the enclosure and place 2 fasteners halfway into the wall into the two top keyhole locations.
- Place the enclosure onto the top fasteners, then lower it so that the fasteners fit in the narrow part of the keyholes.
- Screw the other fasteners into the remaining holes.
- Tighten all fasteners into place.
Installation Prerequisites
- Verify that the building telephone infrastructure is operational. When wiring an NSL installation it may be necessary to check each resident’s line.
- Ensure there is a provision for a ground circuit. The Telephone Access System assembly must be grounded by a qualifi ed electrician. An improperly grounded unit can result in equipment malfunction and void the warranty.
- Use the latest Telephone Access System controller firmware. Mircom periodically updates panel firmware and Confi gurator Software to add features and correct any minor inconsistencies. For information about the latest firmware or software visit the ‘Manuals and Downloads’ section of the Mircom website at www.mircom.com
Warning: Turn the power off before wiring.
Install all power supplies outside the enclosure.
