Aura™ CM-54i
Surface Mount Illuminated Enclosure
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Door Activation Devices
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Camden Aura™, Model CM-54i provides the Industry’s 1st
“Changing State” illuminated switch enclosures.
It offers eld selectable red/green/blue illumination, activated
directly by the switch or remotely by a relay* such as our CX-33
or EMF-2, a time-clock or access control system. User selectable
features include a 3 Amp Form ‘C’ relay, and piezo speaker for
audible annunciation, as well as control over the idle and active
LED colors. Another exclusive is the ability to plug in a TX-9 RF
transmitter, thereby requiring only 2 conductors be run for
power (no batteries required).
The box is made of impact and ame resistant black ABS, and
compatible with any Camden CM-41, CM-45, or CM-46 series
switch. The illumination is provided by an array of super-bright
and energy ecient LED’s, which can be powered by 12 or 24
volts AC/DC.
2. SPECIFICATIONS

Dimensions 6-1/2” H x 6-1/2” W x 2” D
(165mm x 165mm x 51mm)
3. SETUP
Switch SW1 contains a bank of 3 dipswitches.
Dipswitch # 3 turns the speaker on or off. Dipswitch # 2 toggles
operation of the relay, and # 1 allows you to choose whether
the color will be changed locally via the push switch or remotely.
* NOTE: The CX-12 Plus Multi-Function Relay may be used
with the Aura™, however an isolating relay must be wired in
parallel with the lock, and the relay’s dry contact output wired
into the CM-54i.
Switch Position Description
SW1
1
REMOTE / LOCAL On to enable
LED color change from idle to Active
with press of the push button.
2RELAY On to enable operation of the
relay with activation of the push button.
3
SPEAKER On to enable operation of
the speaker with activation of the
push button.
Color selection is made with Switches SW2 and SW3. SW2
determines the Active color and SW3 determines the Idle color.
Setting the IDLE Color (SW2)
Switch Position Description
SW2
1ON = Red LED when IDLE
2ON = Green LED when IDLE
3ON = Blue LED when IDLE
Setting the Active Color (SW3)
Switch Position Description
SW3
1ON = Red LED when Active
2ON = Green LED when Active
3ON = Blue LED when Active
NOTE: If all DIP switches are in the OFF position, there will
be no color illuminated. This allows for no Idle color or no
Active color.
Once all DIP switches are set, proceed to Section 4 – Installation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
4. INSTALLATION
NOTE: If you will be including the optional Aura™ signage,
follow that product’s installation instructions before
installing Aura™
1. Determine the wire access location and drill hole of sucient
size, or use center knock-out plug. Drill the four required
mounting holes. (11/64” min.) There are four indents
provided on 3” centers for your convenience. (See Diagram 1)
2. Pull wiring through access hole, and mount the box to wall
using 4 screws.
3. Remove circuit board from package and locate into the box.
Pull the wire through the hole in centre of circuit board, and
then secure with the two small self-tapping screws (provided).
4a. Wire as per diagram 2 (typical installation). Route the switch
wiring through opaque diffuser panel, and install diffuser
panel into box. It should t snuggly.
4b. If using a TX-9 transmitter to send the signal to an
RX-91 or RX-92 Receiver, attach the transmitter and wire it
before installing circuit board into the enclosure and tting
diffuser. See Diagram 3.
5. Screw in two #6-32 Allen-head screws (provided with switch)
into the threaded center inserts, then attach wires to switch
and install switch over screws. Using the Allen key (provided),
locate the screws and tighten (by hand only).
6. Connect power and test for proper operation.
5. WARRANTY
Camden Door Controls guarantees the Aura™ (CM-54i series)
to be free from manufacturing defects for 3 years from date
of sale.
If, during the rst 3 years, the Aura™ fails to perform correctly,
it may be returned to our factory where it will be repaired or
replaced (at our discretion) without charge. Except as stated

<< Cut this lead to ¼”
STEP 1: Cut the middle red lead to 1/4” as it is not used. Cut both battery leads and the remaining switch lead to approximately 2” long. Strip the insulation back on the 3 long ends to approximately 1/4”. STEP 2: Turn over and remove release paper from double-sided tape. Line up and carefully install TX-9 on back surface of mounting box.
STEP 3: Connect the 3 wires from the TX-9 to the circuit board exactly as shown. The middle red wire that was cut short is not used.
STEP 4: Install circuit board in box and connect the 2 power wires as shown. Set dipswitches for desired operation. Install diffuser and connect push switch wires to terminal strip then install switch. Test for proper operation.
