4.1 Installation Warning
•Do not install the product unless the safety instructions have been read
and understood.
4.2 Mounting to a flat surface
(1) Attachment of mounting plate
Attach the mounting plate in the required location using either of the
following two methods.
Installation using M3 screws x 4 positions
The recommended tightening torque is 0.4 N•m ± 10% (screws are
not included).
Installation using M4 screws x 2 positions
The recommended tightening torque is 0.6 N•m ± 10% (screws are
not included).
(2) Installation of wireless adaptor
Clip the wireless adaptor onto the mounting plate as shown below
and secure the adaptor in place using the M10 nut already fitted to
the wireless adaptor. The recommended tightening torque is 0.9 N•m
± 10%.
(3) Connection of the cable for wireless adaptor
Connect the cable between the base / remote and the wireless
adaptor.
4.3 Mounting to a curved surface
(1) Thread 2 x cable ties through the mounting plate at the top and
bottom.
(2) Secure the wireless adaptor to the mounting plate and then secure
in the required position by tightening the cable ties.
4 Installation (continued)
4.4 Mounting to the Air Management System (AMS)
Mount the wireless adaptor bracket to the Air Management System using
the screw attached to the Air Management System (recommended
torque: 0.3 ±10% N•m). Then attach the cable EXW1-AC1-X1 to between
the wireless adaptor and Air Management System. (When inserting the
cable into the Wireless adaptor, use an insertion force of 10 N or less).
Mount the wireless adaptor to the bracket of the Air Management System
using the M10 nut already installed to the wireless adaptor
(recommended torque: 0.9 ±10% N•m).
