INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
POSITIONING AND MOUNTING THE INTERCOM UNIT
The position of the Intercom Unit should maximise the safest and best operational performance and convenience,
including:
1. Users considerations, with optimal height recommendations (to centreline of the Intercom Unit):
a. Wheelchair: 750 – 1000mm.
b. Car: 200 – 1300mm.
c. Pedestrian: 1540 – 1550mm.
d. Lorry: 1700 – 1900mm.
2. Environmentally and neighbourhood friendly criteria avoiding:
a. Wind and rain.
b. Background noise.
c. Noise and light pollution from the Intercom Unit.
3. Minimising risk of vandalism.
4. Network and Signal strength measured with a 4G Analyser (please see detailed inst uctions p ovided
with the Analyse ).
5. Close proximity to a suitable switchable 13A AC power socket.
SURFACE MOUNTING
Using the Mounting Drilling Template, the Intercom Unit must be securely mounted and can be tted to any secure
location such as a post or on a smooth masonry constructed surface.
Feed the required cables carefully through the cable entry point in the rear of the Backbox and seal effectively against
dust, insects and water ingress – see CABLE ENTRY AND EXIT section.
After mounting and before screwing in the Faceplate, the Backbox must be completely brushed out and be free of any
drilling dust or metal lings. Please be aware that the speaker magnet may attract metal dust or lings which may impair
its performance.
The Backbox Mounting Holes must be sealed against potential dust, insects and water ingress, using electronic grade
silicone sealant, examples of this type of silicone are:
1. American Sealants Inc 388
2. ACC Silicones AS1745G
3. Dow Corning 3145
There are many other equivalent makes.
DO NO USE silicones with acetic acid (vinegar smell/bath sealant) as the fumes given off in a conned space can
corrode delicate electronic parts.
