3 Installation
ATTENTION! ESD damage!
Electrostatic discharge can lead to damage to electronic com-
ponents!
ÎTake care to discharge properly before touching the
inside of the device.To do so, touch a grounded sur-
face such as a radiator or tap!
ATTENTION! Short circuit!
A short circuit can lead to damage to electronic components!
ÎClose the housing before establishing the mains con-
nection!
Do not use the device if it is visibly damaged!
The SEProDL2 comes with the mains adapter and the VBus® cable pre-connected.

named by the system installer.
The controller must additionally be supplied from a double pole switch with contact
gap of at least 3mm.
3.1 Wall mounting
The unit must only be located in dry interior locations. In order to function fault-
lessly, the device must be protected from strong electromagnetic elds in the se-
lected mounting location.
Please pay attention to separate routing
of bus cables and mains cables.
ÎChoose a mounting location.
ÎDrill 2 holes (Ø 6 mm, centres 113 mm) and insert the wall plugs.
ÎFasten the base part of the housing by means of the enclosed screws
(4 x 40 mm )
