Alarm Moriuie Details
Tt1e alarm module is the central t1ub or the Freedom LP system. Each module provides power and alarm ·functions for up to cigM
positions and you can connect up to eight modules together in a chain to share a common alarm and keyswitch. H1is module is not
compatible with earlier LP 1.0 or 2.0 components.
The aiarrn module is powered using a single l5Vdc power supply. During normal operation, the mod Lile supplies 5.0Vdc (5.5Vdc
with booster) of power, up to l0OOrnA to each position via a USB cable. Aproduct-specific SmartCabie delivers the correct voltage
to each product when the puck sits in its base.
The alarm module has an option,11 battery bacl,up system to provide power rl there 1s an interruption lo the main power supply,
allowing the module to continue to protect the products. This rechargeable battery only provides power to keep the system armed.
ii does not pmvide any power to operate the products. Once main power is restored, the system automatically recharges this battery
so it is ready for the next power outage.

INSTALLATION & SETUP
t:rt~~ting e;.lhinet Cutouts
!f your cabinet topper is not prepared for installation, you must make cutouts for each base using the guidelines below .
....... Hole diameter= 01.65" (41.91mm)
Hecomrnended spacing between cutouts'" 8" (203.2mm)
Hecornrnendel"J clearance inside cabinet'" 6" minimum (152.4mm)
i'lote: Make sure no components are directly connected to a power source
prior to installing the Freedom l.P3 components.
1 Install base into pre-drilled cabinet hole (1.65" diameter).
2 Tt1read retractor cable up through bracket nut and base, then screw
into tr1readed insert in bottom of puck using the security driver.
3 Set puck in base and rotate base to desired orientation. Orientation
determines wllich way product faces when mounted. It is best if all
I..EDs face the same direction.
4 SlidE, retractor bracket onto base from underside of fixture.
5 Tr1read iocking nut onto base with teeth on nut facing up. F'ully tig~1ten
the nut.
6 Connect cable from base to NFC board.
7 Attach NFC cover (not shown).

Important! Observe wire polarity when connecting the alarm and keyswitch. Hie red wires must connect to the positive (+)
terminals: the black wires must connect to the negative H terminals.
1 Use four screws to secure alarm module(s) to the display cabinet or other mounting location.
2 Install an alarm sounder; then connect wires from alarm to tl1e ALARM connectors on the alarm module.
Note: Install alarm sounder outside the cabinet where it can be heard, but not easily seen by customers.
3 Install keyswitch or keypad; tt1en connect wires to Hie KEY connectors on the a!arrn module.
4 Connect a power/alarm cable between each retractor and the Position jacks on the module.
!mportant! Connect cables in sequence, starting with position 1. For example, if you are using four display positions,
connect them to positions :t, 2, 3, 4 on the alarm module.
5 It the system requires more t~1an one alarm module, you must daisy chain the modules to share the central alarm and
keyswitch. To daisy-chain tile modules, connect a 4-conductor cable (22awg) between the KEY/P.,LARM terminal connections,
using the same color coding (red, blacl<, white and green) on eacl1 module. You only need to connect one of the modules to
the aiarrn and keysw1tch.
6 Plug the external power wpp,y into the power input jack.
7 Connect the power supply to a suitable AC power source (pr·ererabiy a power strip in tr·,e cabinet}.
