Getting to know your FoobotSAT

Installation Overview

1. Select the optimal device location.
2. Secure the mounting plate to the wall or ceiling.
3. Connect the DC cable to the device.
4. Attach FoobotSAT to its mounting plate by rotating it.
5. Get the App to set up the device and follow the instructions to have it connected to the Internet.

Each of these steps are detailled further detailed in the following pages.

Securing the mounting plate

Items you will need

• A minimum of 4 screws from 4-48 to ¼-38 dimensions. (M3 to M5 dimensions). Head thickness of the screw should not exceed 3.3mm.
• Matching drywall plugs or anchors.
• Matching screwdriver.
• Drill bits matching your anchors or drywall plugs.
• Optional: Drill bits to let DC jack and Ethernet cable through.

Make sure you have the proper screws, anchors and the protection equipment required in your jurisdiction before getting started.

Drilling a path through for DC Jack & Ethernet cables 

You can use the canvas on the next page to help drill in a ceiling plate for the cables to go throug:

• The bigger circle required for Ethernet is 0.9in (23mm) of diameter.
• The smaller one is 0.5in (13mm) diameter for the DC jack.

Secure the mounting plate

Use a minimum of 4 screws and associated drywall plug or anchor to secure the mounting plate to the wall or ceiling. For the wall mounting option, use the glitter to secure the DC jack before screwing in the mounting plate.

Wire connections
